This is one I am definitely going to watch for.

Seems to be an "image of the beast". Whore of Babylon image, maybe?

Also reminds me of the Metropolis robot (w/ pentagram in the background) here:

Angels seem to be thought of as robots/ puppets - genderless mindless servants.

Thank you for the comment.

Exactly what I am thinking. When I saw this odd thing (wasn't Lady Godiva on a horse, specifically?) - instead that have built this walking nephilim-like creature.

Godiva had long hair; this doll has rather short hair.

I wonder if anyone agrees with my Medusa comparison?

Also - LADY Godiva/Lady Madonna/ Lady Gaga...
