This set is centered around Frankie Stein and features a posable micro-figure that pays homage to the original doll. The set includes a volt station that illuminates Frankie's glowing bones when she's placed inside, adding an electrifying touch to playtime. Designed to resemble a book that opens and closes like a diary, the Boo-k Lab offers a nostalgic nod to vintage horror movies and the original [Monster High series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/katseye-and-monster-high). The glossy spiderweb varnish on the cover enhances its eerie appeal. The MEGA Monster High Frankie Stein's Boo-k Lab is part of [Mattel's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monster-high-roblox) Nostalgic Fan Favorites collection and it — alongside other fan-favorite products — will first debut at Mattel's [San Diego Comic-Con](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/san-diego-comiccon) booth.
