I looove that Clawdeen Not sure about Draculaura, G3 Laura just doesn't really do it for me somehow, but I still really want this set... the accessories are just the cutest <3

Proof on Funko Europe, though I first saw the news on r/FunkoPop and then later confirmed on Entertainment Earth


Personally I won't be getting them, I didn't get the original ones either as Abbey was never made. If Abbey makes it this time, I'll be tempted. I miss the little vinyls that were made that were stylised, I still kick myself for selling mine 

[Carrehz]

I NEED Clawdeen, she's so cute!! Probably will skip the other two though.

So glad I stopped collecting Funkos and sold them all because these are some of my favorite designs and I would have splurged on them

How are we feeling about these overpriced beauties?

Personally, I love the ghost because she looks the least like a mere color swap. She is see-through with a skull face underneath, very cool. These are 175 a piece x__x

I like them, but probably will not buy.   The ghost is the coolest.   I kind of like the green-haired girl, but not her dress.

[Carrehz]

The designs are kinda cool, but I don't really care for their dresses. good thing too, at that price  It's nice to see some new designs, but I'll pass.

[Esbayne]

I love them, but soo disappointed in their prices & exclusivity.

[brightberry]

I feel like the dresses look kind of bulky on the dolls and would look better on people.   But, maybe people who love Off-White will like it better.


I saw that the Re-style G3 Draculaura was on Amazon.   I hope that means she will be in stores soon.

OMG...

"Monster High and Disney Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas collab drops 10/27 at 12pm PT."

AAAAAAAAAA!!!! I've been hoping they'd do this since these collabs first began!!!!!!

It looks like Jack is a boy doll too going off his shoes!!!

[shockponie]

Omg is right!!!

[Lady Frostbite]

I did wonder if a collab like that would happen, but Disney are so intensely territorial of their intellectual property, it was gonna be a fight! Other horror icons would have been easier licensing wise.

It's nice seeing MH back in stores, a bit of variety between Barbie and Rainbow High, even if I've only gotten Abbey so far. Still waiting to see what comes out next, especially with the second live action movie going ahead as far as I know and Toralei is in it. I don't plan to watch any G2/3 MH media as I still have a huge soft spot for G1 media.

They sold out super fast. I am thinking of biting the bullet and joining the MH club just to see that behind the scenes material they're posting.

Here's all the high-res pics. I adore Sally, she looks perfect and that Stitcherella purse is a fitting recolor if I ever saw one. The shading on her eyes is lovely and makes her look so alive. Jack is cute but the highlight are the shoes and his body is gonna be interesting. He looks like they designed new hands so he might have an all new body or maybe a highly altered Skelita? Very cool.

Better than the Chuckie/Tiffany travesty for sure. That Tiffany looked yellow, uninspired and her outfit kinda cheap.

I's rank these as high as Beetlejuice/Lydia in the pop culture sector. Except BJ's clothing was cheaply made as well. For these special dolls you should expect thicker fabric. Cheap-tel squeezing the fangirls and -boys as always.

I don't really want to give them my money but a "Ghouluxe" Venus or Scullector Carmilla would really tempt me. After the female Dracula I don't know if they'll do one but hey.
Ripley + Alien would also be a cool set. They can use the old Crescent to be Jonesy
Since they did Nightmare they could also do Corpse Bride. Or Coraline + Other Mother. Would love to see the latter especially.

I still have a huge soft spot for G1 media.

So do I and they are going to release an IDW comic book run of 10 issues I think. I hope they pic a good illustrator and keep the diary canon. I'd hate for this to be fanfiction with IDW MLP G4 tier art. The covers always looked better than the inside.

[brightberry]

I am not a big fan of Nightmare Before Christmas the movie.  It looks amazing but I didn't like the story very much. Note hate, just meh. It's been easy to pass on the merch.   However, those two dolls are incredible!  I didn't try for them but there will always be a little regret there.

Congrats to everyone who got them though.  Looking forward to pictures!

The concept from months ago got translated almost exactly! So happy to see they are staying true to the old characters, Venus was always my girl. She's got sculpted braids, which makes up for the missing flocking, imo. The slogan on her shirt is silly. It's redundant. Should have said "natural" instead of "nature" or nothing at all. I hate Abbey's snowflake for the same reason.

Chewlian is horrific. Sorry to the designer but that thing sucks. Should I ever get my hands on that Venus I'll sell him. I usually keep all the accessories to a Sig doll but that godawful pet is too much for me. I also have to nitpick and bemoan that G3 Venus seems to have a plastic basket to carry Chewlian in. Remember G1's cute totebag? Why would eco friendly Venus carry a plastic bag? Unless it's recycled or whatever but it's still weird.
