Monster High Discussion 14

Times like this are when I really dislike living in New Mexico. While everyone has had the Scaris lines for MONTHS, I've only ever seen any Scaris dolls TWICE! And they were either Rochelle and Clawdeen, so that was pretty disappointing. But of course all we've had for the last six months has been either Scary Tales or Ghouls Rule.

I still haven't found Catrine here in Illinois. This is getting frustrating! I don't even see the tags on the shelves!

This! But in Arizona, ya know. One had the tag and ziltch while the other I went to for picking up an order had no tag at all haha

Congrats on getting her dxgirly!! Exciting!!

What part of AZ are you in? I'm in Chandler and I've seen 2 stores with the sticker at least, but no one is ever near by to ask when she's coming in.

I have the same problem. I would love to go buy Catrine for all of you but I have no money to do so. I was lucky that I had just enough on my Walmart giftcard to get her. Hoping that I will be able to get a job soon! (I'm in school currently so I have hardly any free time >.< Dangit education I want to buy dolls!)

I just saw this and thought you guys might be interested!

The toy isle at our Walmart tends to get stocked around 3am so around 4am I may go take a peek.

Sad thing is, if they do have her, I think I can I only afford one. I just scraped together all of my money and paid off my credit card today. It hurt but in a good way. It just didnt leave me hardly any money to get through the two weeks till my next paycheck.

I just ordered some mohair from a site, but question is how do I space the holes on the CAM head to ensure it's going to look good once I have all the hair in? I tried doing a CAM already with some saran, but the plugs look so spaced out and gives her such a horrible look. Please let me know, if I can't figure it out I might just make her a skull cap wig, which I am not too keen on because sometimes those look doofy.

Take one of your monster high dolls that came with hair, and pullt he hair aside to look down to the roots. Look at how it is done on the actual doll, and that should give you a good idea of how to do it on your own doll. And with the Mohair.. I haven't worked with it myself, but it seems fairly fluffy. It might fluff out enough from the plug hole to spread and cover more space visually. Saran is very straight and likes to cling to itself, so it makes sense that the hair looked thin with the saran.

I have no idea if any of that was helpful to you, but I hope some of it was

Whoa it's been a while since I last posted here!
Hi everyone!

Could someone sum up what I've missed? Last thing I remember is Gigi and Twyla?

Apparently the photoday dolls arrived over here too!
I saw Abbey a few days ago in a store.

Something I just discovered: Cleo and Nefera are too old to be Egyptians. Cleo's age is given as being ~5842 years and Nefera says she's three years older. That would mean they were born in the 3820s BC, but the civilization we know as Ancient Egypt didn't form until the 3100s. Oops!

Yes thank you that does help greatly. I just worry that the holes on the scalp up around the face will look like a receding hair line when I am done. But I will give it a go like you mentioned, maybe I can add more holes if need be. Now just gotta wait for the hair to arrive. Its a lovely black with mixes of plumb in it.

lol, that's funny.

As long as they and draculaura have been in high school they should be brilliant.

Maybe they're hipsters? They've been ancient Egyptian since before it was cool, dawg

TwilightElphaba, I just wanted to add to this... I've had no luck in Phoenix & Glendale yet either. Hopefully soon!
