Gecco have created a Bubble Head Nurse variant that was exclusive to ComicCon this year. The Bubble Head Nurse is limited to 1500 pieces and was previously made available via their website. It has now sold out.
Luckily I managed to get my hands on one and although you may be thinking the only differences appear to be the red boots and facial features you are far from right!
Before I even took the nurse out of the box I could already see the differences this figure has to offer. The box for one comes with different artwork at the front. Once again the 9 small squares windows have been included however instead of a faded image of the Bubble Head Nurse upon a red background we see this time the nurse against what appears to be a decaying backdrop. Her red boots being the focal point of the front.
The box art also contains the same information that has been included with the original Bubble Head Nurse statue along with the image of the nurse standing proudly on the back. As you can see from the back of the box the Nurse also has her red boots. As I looked at both boxes I noticed the original nurse image on the back has her wearing white suspenders and boots but as we all know the original nurse statue did not come with boots at all. Maybe they changed this at the last minute?

The Red Bubble Head Nurse comes with quite a large number of differences. The most obvious being the long red boots that just about reach the bottom of her dress. They are a deep blood red colour and have been painted so perfectly that they almost look like they have been made with real leather.
The base she stands on is very similar to its original with the only real differences being the blood spots. Instead of their being bloody footprints, this time there is just general spots around her feet. The grate is also much more shiny and gives off the appearance of it being wet.
Her skin is much brighter than the original with less veins and much more colour. She has a paleness to her that almost looks as if her skin is real. Once again beautifully painted with no lack of detail. Even her dress appears to have deeper tears and extra detail. Her name badge appears to have a name on it this time that reads 'Sandrega'. Where this name originates from is a mystery as all searches I have conducted have revealed nothing.

The nurses face has quite a few differences. The first one being the obvious red ball like thing over her mouth. The folds of skin at either side of her face are much more defined and her neck is greeted by what appears to be some kind of choker. Her skin around her head is deeper in colour this time, giving the impression of her being chocked.
Unlike with the previous nurse release this time she comes with an additional head. At first I didn't think the head could actually be removed as it is tightly placed on top her head. Eventually it did come off and I managed to replace it with the additional head piece. This head also comes with the chocker around its neck but instead of the red ball across her mouth we can see a mouth and nose. Even the sunken areas of where the eyes should be are visible. With this additional head it adds a further variant to the line of Nurse's and actually makes me want to purchase one more nurse so I can have all three on display.

Once again she comes with additional hands so you can decide what hand she carries her steal pipe. The small card that is included with the original nurse is also included but this time isn't numbered. Instead where the individual number is, are the words 'Limited to 1,500 pieces worldwide'.
I am definitely impressed with the Red Bubble Head Nurse statue and would happily recommend it to anyone. If you already own the original nurse then you really should get this one too! I managed to get mine from amazon for £123. Bigbagtoystore.com already have them for pre-order at $149.99.
You can also purchase the Red Bubble Head Nurse from Game-Legends.com for € 189.98
This is definitely another great piece from Gecco and Toymunkey studios.
