Yes, yes, I misspoke there. I did say Mattel's SDCC dolls- but yes, MATTEL will have a big editon size- hopefully? I mean, they do for some SDCC stuff... IE there were loads and loads of Shera sets...On the other hand I don't recall there ever being an overwhelming number of SDCC MOnster High extras... although I didn't always keep track...
I'm personally not a fan either. I like my spooky stuff a little more on the light-hearted side. Now if they did a Beetlejuice one I'd be all over it.
Personally- I love Pennywise but I would love a Beetlejuice too!It seems like these may be the start of a new collector line- which makes sense, since it is more adults than kids that would be interested in MH at this point probably. (the kids have moved on). I just noticed this posted on their new "Mattel Creations" site (which seems to be a rebranded repurposed matty collectors)SKULLECTOR DOLLSFrom the makers of Monster High™,Skullector™ is an all-new, horrifying collectible line of dolls featuring scare-raising skullebrities and some of the most haunting characters ever to appear on the silver scream. Crafted with to-die-for details, dead-on costumes, and drool-worthy accessories, they’re so creepy and collectible – it’s scary!I also kinda like their MOTU crystal Skeletor, although I would have preferred Shera..
Pennywise not so much because it's the remake one. Props to them for using a girl for him, tho. Fans know Penny is really a female spider and just shapeshifts into a male clown for spoopy reasons.

It sounds like they’re branding these as “Skullector Dolls” rather than an actual part of the MH line/branding. That’s a much better idea, IMHO, given the stark departure from the original look and themes of MH.Quote from: Zapper on October 31, 2020, 04:16:19 AMPennywise not so much because it's the remake one.

Now bring on the spider-version doll! THAT I would buy.

Now bring on the spider-version doll! THAT I would buy. Now that you mention it, we all know they have a spider body and head, COME ON MATTEL! They made how many versions of the spider girl? Two, right? The SDCC one and the I<3Fashion version. Perfect base for Spider!wise.Beetlejuice and Lydia could have been a cool two-pack. But they'd probably use the Twyla mold for Lydia as well. I'd like to see some mods, like a Howleen head but with human ears, Draculaura head on Little Sister body, etc.Btw, I heard the dolls went on sale again and were immediatly sold out due to scalper bots? x__xThat doesn't sound like Mattel Creations has their system in check. Nobody should be able to order more than five of the same item at once, imo. This stuff only pisses off the people they try to capture with this (old school MH fans).
