Her long, layered hair is mostly white, with some black and green streaks in it. (It seems that all the RD girls have green streaks.) She also has swept bangs. Her lips are green too. Her markings are classic Frankie though. Her outfit is a short black dress with multi-colored nuts (not the squirrel kind, but the mechanical kind;), and her rubber helmet and knee pads are a bright aqua. The helmet is easy to put on, where the chin strap unbuttons on one side, and easily rebuttons into place. The knee pads, which feature the skullie trademark wearing a derby helmet, are easily lost if the clear bands holding them on come off. They are not tight or very sturdy when on, making them a catastrophe to keep on during play. So I suggest not taking the clear bands off when removing her from the packaging, unless you are only going to display her.
The best part of the doll, which keeps my daughter enthralled with her, is that the high heeled roller skates (the same blue with yellow and green wheels) actually roll! I thought that this was a pretty nice touch to the toy. I figured, since the doll is pretty cheap in price, that the production would skimp on this.
She came with a trading card, a bright green stand. No pet or brush.

For the price, I expected something just ok. But I was really impressed with the entire Roller Maze collection they have a lot of unique features you can't get in other Monster High collections.All of the girls come with green streaks in their hair. With Frankie Stein, it's especially pretty! She also comes with matching green lipstick and makeup. I really feel she is one of the prettiest of all the Frankie Steins because of all that extra color (the green even matches her one green eye!).
Her dress has short with a pink stripe down the side and cogs as a pattern. She comes with Monster High logo shin guards and little blue skates with wheels that actually roll. The wheels are a pretty translucent color and the back of the boots are lightning bolts.
In all she's a suprisingly fun doll and well worth the money!
Best Deals for Monster High Roller Maze Frankie Stein Doll
I ordered Roller Maze Frankie when Amazon was selling MH dolls at reduced prices in January (Walmart online is also offering some MH items on clearance). While this version of Frankie is of course scaled down and her cropped hair is a bit more low-maintenance than the other Roller Maze dolls, she's still awesome. Not as colorful as Lagoona or Ghoulia, but Frankie's color scheme perfectly fits her personality. Great addition to my kid's Roller Maze collection, and the skates really add to creative and imaginative play.As I said I ordered Frankie from Amazon, so I was disappointed that the doll I was sent had issues with makeup (lips were washed out, some of her pink eye shadow was directly printed on her eye). Bought for half of the retail price, I'm ok with doing my own paint touch-up. And I included the '2.0' in my review because the newer production of these dolls includes imagery from the Friday Night Frights dvd; the back of the box and card show not just the original ghouls from the Roller Maze series released in Summer 2012, but also now include Clawdeen, Draculaura, and Robecca. Obviously a tie-in to the dvd and a bridge for the second wave of the doll line, BUT I was honestly expecting a box just like the others in my 6 year old's collection. Not a big deal, but some collectors may want this info.
