Monster High returns again!

[Leave a Whisper]

Congrats guys!

I'm thinking hard about it!    But I don't think I will. I love my Frankies but I don't know if I want to spend another $60 for this one. I hope this one goes away soon so I can stop being tempted.

I remember with the IT Jem dolls, there were a mix of capacities. They had too many Stingers, and not enough of Regine and Astral. I remember Regine was literally gone on release day pretty much. I got the last one in the store I got her from and I swear I only got her because she was in Europe and people stateside didn't want the shipping cost.

Congrats anyone who snagged her

I like Cleo as a doll too. One day I'd like to find the ILF one, but I was really stoked to pick up the G&B one at the last carboot sale before I left London.

And Ghoulia is Ghoulia But yeah, I had the help of a friend who made it possible without breaking the bank.

I found my photos of them. It helped knowing they were from 2017 Here's one They're still sealed in the box, hence behind the cello. They also live behind a bunch of MIP ponies, so I can't get at them easily.

And she's out! Did anyone else get one? She's still in stock surprisingly, I thought for sure she'd be gone by now (Greta sold out in 4 mins IIRC). Maybe Mattel have actually listened to collectors for once and have stocked more than usual?

I think it's because she was a pre-order whereas Greta was available at the time of ordering and shipped out soon after.  These are supposedly shipping in June.

Congrats guys!

She was actually $75 I think, more than Greta was.

@Taffeta that Cleo...I was under the impression when she came out that she would only be available at SDCC and then last minute I guess they put her online.  I never knew that until she was long gone.  Kicking myself for not looking into it a little more at the time.

Iirc the set was something like $40 or $50 on the mattel website with free shipping in north America. I remember shipping here was $50, so I had a friend in the states get one and send it over for about half that amount.

I don't remember how well publicised it was though. I don't think it was at the convention in the end...maybe it was but I thought it went direct to online.

I;d have expected it to sell out at sdcc.

[Carrehz]

Yeah, the Cleo/Ghoulia set was online-only. As I recall, it was originally produced with the intention of being a SDCC exclusive, and then switched to an online release late into production.

Whenever they make one of those Skullector dolls I breathe a sigh of relief if I don't want them - and I haven't wanted a single one so far. This could change if they made a really awesome Cleo, however.

I have no credit card they accept so I guess I couldn't get one the normal way, even if I tried.

I wanted MH to be back for years but nowadays I am at this point where I am happy saving money. When MH was at its height I was constantly putting "doll money" aside and I didn't even put my dolls on display most of the time. It was like this dirty secret. Some girls smoked pot, I bought dolls.

MH made me dollcrazy and no other toyline has managed to do so since then. If MH came back "better than ever" I'd risk a relapse. So as long as these dolls stay expensive and overseas I am good

[Lady Frostbite]

I am super sad and nostalgic for MH, but these dolls so far aren't grabbing me. HOWEVER they look SOOOOO much better than the horrible G2 creations, and if it means I get my sweet, well-meaning clumsy Frankie back AND they don't forget Ghoulia, all the better!

Show me an Abbey. I might cave

Clawdeen drops TODAY in about an hour and a half (5 pm 4 pm UK time), same page as before. Woulda posted earlier but I only found out about it myself literally about 15-20 mins ago, for some reason they didn't announce it on the Monsterhigh Instagram itself Really wish they'd announce them a couple of days in advance...

Edit: Sorry - she drops in 30 mins - for some reason the main MH page says "1 hour 22 mins" and the actual page says "22 mins", not sure what's up with that...

[Ponyrama_95]

I ordered Clawdeen two minutes after the end of the countdown, I received an email with the order number but still no confirmation message on the shipment. I hope I have had time to win one, this was the first time I bought something in preview : D: D

Does anyone know if these dolls are numbered? About how many Clawdeen in this limited edition have been produced?

[brightberry]

Congrats Ponyrama!  I hope she comes soon.  I don't know how long it will take to ship but I don't think they send them out immediately.

[Carrehz]

Congrats Ponyrama! I got her too, I got my confirmation email the other day.

I'm not sure if they've said how many dolls are being produced. Re: shipping, from what I've heard, they're shipping them out in batches, so they're not all shipping out at once.

[Ponyrama_95]

Thank you for replies!

[Carrehz]

Draculaura drops TOMORROW at 9 am Pacific Time (5 pm UK time)!!! Apparently they announced it on the 5th but I only just saw it... annoying since I signed up for their newsletter but I never got any emails, grr. >( But oh well.

I notice the drop page mentions "bringing back 5 original ghouls" so I guess the other two in the line will be coming sooner rather than later? Still no pics of them though.

[Ponyrama_95]

I was able to order one!! Who else?
I'm so happy!!! Draculaura is one of my favourite character, she went sold out in less than 10 minutes!

[Carrehz]

I got her, she's on backorder though. Was worried I wouldn't get home in time to order her, went out to a movie yesterday and it let out later than anticipated luckily I got back just in time.

My Clawdeen arrived today and OMG she's gorgeous!! I can't wait for Draculaura to arrive; Clawdeen's my favourite character but I think Draculaura's the prettiest of these three HC dolls.
