Monster High thread number 786!!

I'm waiting to order Clawd until a rep gets back to me.

Sapphire: I adore Clawdeen's lavender hair color, but she only has like one row of plugs or something! I'm so not into the shaved look.

And is it just me, or does Rochelle look a little like Nikki Minaj?

We were just thinking that that Halloween Clawdeen looks like Nikki Minaj.

[WeepingPiano]

Is anyone going to want Rochelle, but not her pet? *really wants that griffin*

[toralei]

^Me, probably. I don't care too much for the animal friends. I have enough with the G4 ponies already!

Canadian peeps - have any of you been able to find Cupid yet? I haven't found a hint of her in any Walmart around me (I'm in BC), and I'm a little concerned we'll be skipped over with all the new releases coming out.

Also (again, Canadian peeps), has anyone heard a rumor about the Clawdeen/Howleen packs coming to Zellers ( since Target now owns Zellers)?

[dIGITS]

so far i'm not a fan of the half-rooted-ness of venus' head.  robecca steam is underwheming to me... but OMG the gargoyle girl is PERFECT!  guess i'm still a sucker for "cuter" dolls

I'm in ontario, and I found cupid last weekend - it looked like they had just put her on the shelf since there was what I assume was a full case shipment of her. Not heard anything about the zellers, but since target owns them it seems possible they'll come there?

I've found Cupid on the 3rd of Feb in Ontario. My local Wal-Mart had about 8 on the shelf. Call them every morning around 9am when they open and check.
Good Luck!

Keelee: It's such a bummer! Grrrr!!!! I want to order Clawd so bad, but I'm afraid to do it through mattel in case they send me Clawdeen instead!

P.S. I just sent an email to Mattel. Hopefully they'll fix it soon!

P.S.S. Does anyone else have the urge to rehair Draculaura? I want to like her, but God, I hate the pink streaks in her hair! She's the only MH of the core six dolls that I only have one of...just little ol' DOTD Draculaura. I want another, but I just can't find one that I like...

Let us know how that goes with Mattel!

And aww, I love Draculaura, she got me into collecting MH in the first place. X3 I was all, "I don't collect dolls...but...I HAVE TO HAVE this little vampire doll! She's so like me!" I have similar hair and clothing style (just more black!) and carry a parasol everywhere. So nope, love her hair.

The only core girl I'm not into is Cleo. Even Clawdeen, who I was originally most reluctant to buy, I found myself getting multiples of with no problem. But there sits Basic Cleo, all by her lonesome - and she's the best Cleo version to me! Part of it is her eyes. I don't know if it's just mine, or simply their shape, but there's something wrong with them. Like they're looking in two different directions.

And then there's her clothes. After the Basic outfit, which is good but not super well made, they all fall somewhere between boring and terrible. It's like, if they had one person in charge of each ghoul's designs, the others regularly hit it out of the park, while poor Cleo's designer just can't seem to manage.

And it's not just mummies or the Egyptian theme in general being hard for the team to design, because Nefera and Cleo's vanity are stunning. (I didn't think I would like Nefera - "agh! They can't even make one mummy girl work!" but once I saw her in person I loved her.)

I am liking the look of Ghoul's Rule Cleo though! She may be the first one after the Basic I'm actually excited to buy!

[xkelpiex]

Wow LOVE the new 3 ghouls 

Someone saw the new pics from the toy fair? they had a new Clawdeen, her outfit is so differnt that she looks like a new character

OMG SHE IS FABFABFAB. And I thought I would hate the halloween line. I love how out there she looks. So fierce! She's like a moon goddess. A fluffy moon goddess with leopard print shaved hair.

[SkitLeDee]

Okay, So,I just took a look at the freaky 13 thing,and after seeing HD pictures,I love all of the new characters(except Jackson.pfft,normie.) I'm definitely seeing a meal gradient on Robbecca, and the contrast from Roccheles gray skin and colorful hair is gorgeous.And we have the same favorite activity!(sculpting)Definite wants coming up.

[Dibbles]

Can't bring myself to like the Halloween line. They're too over-decorated.
As for the four new characters (well, I mean Jackson isn't really a new character), I'm not super crazy about them yet. I like Venus and Robecca the best, but we'll see how they all look in person.

Thanks! Hopefully they're on the way here. And I'm soooooo hoping the Zellers rumor pans out (anything to save a trip over the border. Although Howleen is so adorable, she'd be worth it. )

Wait - I think I'm confused...is the Clawdeen/Howleen pack going to be a Target set? I guess I assumed it was a European exclusive since that's the only place they had been found so far?

I think I skipped a few pages of this thread accidentally, lol.

Yes, it's a Target exclusive here in the states, but in the UK it's exclusive to... Argos I believe? UK TRU will also carry the weretwins, and ASDA (UK store owned by Walmart) will be stocking Cupid. I think I have all those shops right At the very least, this year the exclusives are available outside of the US.

[creedence]

These new dolls are so cute, now if they weren't so hard to find I'd maybe get my hopes up of actually getting them...They're out of MH dolls everywhere all the time.  I live in the country & have to make a long trip to shopping places.  Sucks finally getting there & finding nothing.  Online shopping is just as difficult since everywhere is out of stock as soon as they get the dolls in.
