I love bats, so the name "Elissabat" has me excited. ^.^
I've been religiously stalking my Walmarts. No Catrine yet. I'm sure it'll be Feb before she's here, but I'm still checking anyway. :P
Random - but I am really hoping someone can help meTry searching on Etsy for handmade clothes :)
I'm not too happy with the boy CAM clothes and two of them need shoes. Where do you buy clothes for your dolls? Im sorry if this was posted before, i tried the search engine but couldn't find anything :(

It's been a gas killer for me lately. >,<;
Anyone else planning on spending some of their tax return check on MH dolls?
I'm going to hunt down the new pack with Toralei and hopefully find Catrine. I freakin' love the werecats. I'd be happy if the whole line was werecats, truth be told. They remind me of the Catwalk Kitties that I also collect and love so much.

I'm trying to keep my tax return for the MLP Fair. I was jobless for the first half of the year so my tax return won't be that great. Especially since I'm working on average 20 hours a week. The only dolls I'm really look for that are out now are Basic Venus, Swim Venus, two Swim Lagoonas and PD Cleo.
As for older dolls, I really don't want to spend a lot on them so I'm just going to not get them.

My stores are overflowing with PD Cleo... Let me know if you want me to pick her up...
As for older dolls, I really don't want to spend a lot on them so I'm just going to not get them.That is a very sensible and adult decision and I admire you very much.

Walmart is on my way home and they restock Thursdays, I'll keep an eye out for everyone, Catrine is not on my wish list and I will help if I can
I'm not spending my tax return on dolls/ponies, but my student aid return. :blush:
Not going to buy anything big... Just ... Poseys. :devious:
My hope is that Elissabat is Draculaura's little sister and is Howleen sized. Howleen needs friends. Same with Viperene- Deuce's lil sis. I want the bright yellow hair Lagoona to be Lagoona's lil sis and smaller. Anybody else hoping for a little sister line?That would be so cute! I do think we need more Howleen-sized dolls. Same with Nefera-sized ones (although I am going to assume H-Bloodgood will be her size).
If they made a cyclops doll, would they come with an eyeglass or a sunglass? /philosoraptor
ahahaha yesIf they made a cyclops doll, would they come with an eyeglass or a sunglass? /philosoraptor
Heee I'd imagine the lens would have an Odysseus protection coating to prevent any mishaps.
If they made a cyclops doll, would they come with an eyeglass or a sunglass? /philosoraptorMaybe he/she would come with a monocle? ;D
I'm ashamed of myself for not considering that option.If they made a cyclops doll, would they come with an eyeglass or a sunglass? /philosoraptorMaybe he/she would come with a monocle? ;D
Wow, yeah! She's cute! She looks like a frozen shade from Castlevania or something.
(and now I want a custom Succubus >.>)Hehe, you'll probably have to wait for Headmistress Bloodgood for that!
Ya know, the more I look at Scaris Deuce, the more I want him. I'm not fond of the MH boy dolls at all usually, but he has a very cute expression. And even though I prefer 'real' hair, I like the green....thing... on his head.
I probably won't have enough luck to run into him, but if I do, I think I'll get him.
Wow, yeah! She's cute! She looks like a frozen shade from Castlevania or something.
I'm sure I'm not the only person with massive amounts of love for "Horned Girl" either :heart:

I like Horned Girl backgrounder too, so cute ^.^ But I would love any horned (or antler'd) doll! That's probably my top monster wish.
Went Catrine hunting today, two walmarts in a different town where she'd supposedly been spotted, no sign of her! I did find a Deuce though!
Alright, that's good to hear. At least we know Mattel is now aware that we do not like the glue method and they decided to stop using the glue. (hopefully)Emphasis on hopefully. I haven't taken my Jinafire's head off to see if she has any glue. I can, however, report that my sig Rochelle is still glue seepage free! The only ones I've encountered glue seepage with were my classroom Frankie and GB Clawdeen, neither of which I still have.
I really hope they've fixed the glue issue >_< My signature Frankie has it bad, so I'll have to hunt down some tea tree oil too.Alright, that's good to hear.

And Pukunui--OMG, I love your avatar! So you're a Homestar Runner fan too?Thanks. I'm a lapsed fan, insofar as I was big into it back in college, but haven't really kept up with it in years. I still have a Cheat sticker on my car, and I still occasionally wear my old Trogdor t-shirt, but that's about it. I stopped checking out the site for new stuff back around the time they stopped making SB e-mails in order to focus on their Wii game or whatever. I have no idea what they've been up to since.
I seem to recall people saying that their Jinafires and Skelitas didn't have any glue in their heads.

Minus a couple of the big ticket ones like Gil, Holt, and DotD Deuce and such.

**He says he has a classroom Draculaura, but I didnt think they were released.... So I am not quite sure which one he is talking about... )
He pm'd me and told me that he would accept any reasonable offer... So my question to you all is... What is this collection worth... He had it listed for $1800 and it didnt sell... So what should I offer if I was to purchase it... Any ideas?? Thanks guys!! Sorry this is sych a lengthy post... but an response whether it be a PM or on here is greatly appreciated...

Every single morning I check for Deuce and someone appears to have gotten there before me and rummaged through all the MH dolls- I guess I need to get up earlier!Yeah but most likely it's just kids looking around, I've encountered the same thing at Walmart and Target.
Karin- I might be interested in your Deuce? What were you hoping to get for him?
It's supposed to be the big fall line so it could be anywhere between August and possibly October? Not sure though. There's no official date other than fall. Hopefully we will find out at the toy fair in 1 1/2 weeks.

I'm getting really anxious for the Toy Fair. I wasn't into MH or ponies this time last year so I'm super excited to be able to see all the new releases and such this year.
When is Toy Fair this year?
Lmao the guy in that first vid is cracking me up... Between the accent and the fake enthusiasm, that's some comedy gold.
Last year's was pretty exciting when they revealed Rochelle, Robecca and Venus! They also revealed Ghoul's Rule and the new CaM's and the CaM lab.
Here are some videos:

Can't wait to see what gets displayed at the toy fair. Though...I'm -kinda- hoping that not all of the lines that have been announced/leaked so far are going to be for this fall. I still have quite a few dolls that I want from the Scaris, PD, DC, and swim lines, plus the CAMs...I want to be able to have some dolly downtime before more new stuff comes out. XD

Yeah it was a college thing for my fiance and I too :) It's really too bad the site is never updated anymore. I'll have to see if I can find my old Trogdor shirt now XDAnd Pukunui--OMG, I love your avatar! So you're a Homestar Runner fan too?Thanks.

That being said, though, my 7 year-old did see my new avatar this morning and asked to watch the Trogdor e-mail again. We ended up watching a few of the old ones.
So yeah, I still like it, I just haven't kept up with it in a long time. It's just not the same without the group of guys I used to watch and quote it with ad nauseum at college. :huh:

She used to just roll her eyes. I guess they've moved on to other things now. You can only keep doing something like that for so long anyway.
I've passed up so many dolls lately, and seek comfort! Has anyone else had that one doll look 'em square in the eye and had to walk away recently? :PMe! I do, but it depends per month what I have left over and what I have to pay for.
Having to save and be a grown up on low wage is borrrring.

I'm hoping they will reveal the second wave of PD dolls which are supposed to be out very shortly. I think they are supposed to be out this spring. If most of it's for the fall, you will have plenty of time between now and then. :lol:
ugh! Its been a year and I still cant figure out how to make Operettas Spider Stand! He always finds a way to fall head first! Any tips? :PNo unfortunately I can only commiserate, argh I hate him!! >:[ He's too heavy in front so he always tips!
I'm feeling the same! :( It's stressful that I have'nt seen a new dolls around here in months -__- My search for Jinafire is becoming more stressfull than fun.

A new thread already! So I think I'm going to slow down my MH buying and stick to only buying characters I don't already own. So that pretty much means Catrine right now. I'd make an exception for the werecat Fearleading pack. And Swim Venus. And Cat-Tastrophy. And 13 wishes Howleen.
Dang nab it. Just when I think I'm out...

I was just stalking Toysrus.com and noticed something there that wasnt there yesterday.... (they dont have them in stock mind you) Signature dolls- Holt, clawdeen, draculaura, frankie, & lagoona. now this leads me to wonder.... if they just now poped up on the site does that mean they may get them back eventually?! :shocked: they may not but i really hope they do! i probably shouldnt get my hopes up but they already blasted through the roof lol :lol:

I've fallen in love with Draculaura with short hair. I saw a few people who cut her hair, one of which was making a Gory custom. Short hair, de-tinseled, Sweet 1600 Lala is amazing. ;n;
My Lala that came with her roadster has really short hair and it looks so adorable on her ^.^

This would be the only time I would pay $27 for their basic dolls if this actually happened! :lol:
I would sure love for Holt to get a re-release. Oh why didn't I buy him when he was flooding the shelves over a year and a half ago? :cry:
So East Coats peeps, any sign of the Werecat Fearleading girls? My source at the local TRU said it will probably be a while before they make their way out here:(.
I'm in that boat with Gil- I saw him once- had no idea he was HTF- was hoping they'd release him as a non-swim line doll (which are not my favs) - and clearly missed out completely.Still can't believe how "short" he was out. I thought he was going to be like Holt and be around for a while. Guess not. :(

Someone on another forum reported finding them at the TRU in Manchester, NH.
I went to TRU in Nashua, NH last night and didn't see them. However, their stock of the Meow/Purr 2 pack and their original Fearleading packs were cleaned out. They had previously been shelf warmers for a few weeks.So East Coats peeps, any sign of the Werecat Fearleading girls?

I found Catrine right off the truck on a pallete tonight! I want to buy all six and share with you girls, but I only have 2 cents left in my bank account after my own. :cry:

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
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.
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 still haven't found Catrine here in Illinois.

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 :)
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!

In the Tucson! Been to two stores as well and ditto. I have to go in again and pick something up soon so I'll try then! XD never give up~
I hope this means she'll be showing up around me soon! May have to check out my local Wally World after work tonight.
In other news, a huge box of random MH accessories and clothes was sitting on my work desk when I walked in today. I forgot the joy of random lots and this box of goodies is going to be taunting me all day. :biggrin:

Yeah- I have almost given up hope at our Target- I know we are getting good stuff and I used to have some luck if I got there by 7:30- but the Scalpers who prowl the area have become even more fierce and I think they must wait outside the doors in the morning. BoooooCan I ask which target are you referring to?? The downtown Seattle one??

Are people seeing a lot of DC Howleen? My local TRU has almost more of her than any other doll, which surprises the hell out of me.

I saw a TON on amazon right before Christmas- they were so cheap too- but I did just read that a few people are looking for her....

I picked up Lala's most recent fashion pack AND OMG her skirt is SO short. I'm having to keep her in tights because it just looks awful. I normally am all "I don't care, its just a doll" but seriously that's a short skirt!Which one is that again? I thought her latest fashion pack was a dress.

That tiny swimsuit/mini dress looking one with the Sweet 1600 shoes and heart shaped top hat if I can remember. >,<; I see that dress more of a swimsuit and less of a dress that damn thing is so short.OK. I guess I haven't looked at it that closely.

actually you can stick that underneath and it's a tad longer! I think I need to find leggings or something. I just love the patten on it though.LOL. Crazy. And here I thought that they were deliberately moving away from the very short skirts.

No Catrine here yet, but I did find a Roller Maze Clawdeen. Anyone still looking for her?
Tuesday my roommate and I headed to the nearest TRU (Which is about an hour away) to look for the Werecats double pack, but they were sold out but getting a new shipment in the next day... so we asked for two sets to be set aside, hoping his mom could grab them for us since she sometimes works in that city. Unfortunately she wouldn't be working that day so we ended up driving back there again the next day, just to grab the dolls. XD But we saw they also had the three pack in with the fear leading uniforms so we grabbed those instead! It made me full of happy... even if it did cost me thirty dollars in gas. @_@
I picked up my GR Cleo and DDG Lagoona! I love GR Cleo so much! GR Cleo is just so poseable and I love it! <3 I wish I never sold Cleo's vanity. I really want it again. :cry:
I am deboxing Lagoona and when I first opened her up, I spotted this:

Ahhh! :freak: Nothing found... :cry:
I came home with Junior Mints instead...They're deliciously refreshing...
Worcester had Catrine! I stopped by on a whim and they had her! Hooray! There were only two left, so she must have been out for a while. I am guess that more will show up tomorrow morning, since all the WalMarts around here seem to restock on Friday nights. I can't wait to read her journal-thing.
She will be out soon, everyone. Soon!

Tuesday my roommate and I headed to the nearest TRU (Which is about an hour away) to look for the Werecats double pack, but they were sold out but getting a new shipment in the next day... so we asked for two sets to be set aside, hoping his mom could grab them for us since she sometimes works in that city. Unfortunately she wouldn't be working that day so we ended up driving back there again the next day, just to grab the dolls. XD But we saw they also had the three pack in with the fear leading uniforms so we grabbed those instead! It made me full of happy... even if it did cost me thirty dollars in gas. @_@
I haven't been able to check my Walmart the last two days. I've been pretty sick. I know this is irrational, but I have this tiny bit f fear in my head if I do not check she will show up. Then I just won't have her.
Omg hooray my wife found Catrine! She said they have six, so enough that Maniah and I will have one now.
-does her I have Catrine dance-
I found Catrine! They had just put them out!
I found Catrine! They had just put them out!
Where did you find her? What I mean is which Wal Mart?!
That is super exciting! Did he buy any of the dolls?He got me the good Catrine. He hates spending money so he didn't get anything else. I'll be going back after work to see if the Deuce "Gordon" is decent to help someone else out. I'll look at the Catrines too, to see if he was exaggerating. ^.^ Here's to hoping they'll still be there!
It's a good thing she did show up today. I was on the point of giving up hope till my wife called to tell me there was a doll and asking about that cat girl.Omg hooray my wife found Catrine! She said they have six, so enough that Maniah and I will have one now.
-does her I have Catrine dance-
I am so thrilled too! I was at wal-mart when Maddy called me, and I had JUST complained to my husband about them still not having Catrine, when she called like 1 sec later. I am so so so happy! I've kept a small portion of money aside for Catrine, and had just been about to give it up and put it toward a different purchase, so the call came in good time :)

They're still stocking the Werecat 2-packs? I haven't seen one of those in months.

Ok ladies and gents I have a small issue with my Catrine, and I've noticed it with the one I got for Maniah. When I put on Catrine's sunglasses I noticed that they glasses part is upside down when the ear pieces are right. When I turn it around the glasses are poking up funny.

Does that look right with the ear pieces turned up like that? Am I just being an idiot? I would think they would curve down even if she does have cat ears instead of human ears.
Them Junior Mints didn't do anything for me! And more and more people are finding her, AND I'M NOT ONE OF THEM!! :freak: *breathes into paper bag* I'd wanna wait until she shows up more, but I'm scared she's not going to! >,<; I just wanna get her out the way for now so I can take a small MH break after being caught up.Ahhh! :freak: Nothing found... :cry:
I came home with Junior Mints instead...They're deliciously refreshing...
Yum, hopefully those Junior Mints tide you over til you get a Catrine of your own! :D
I'll be waiting til she's more plentiful on the shelves before I start looking. c:
I would tell them to open the case and check. As far as I am aware she comes in a case by herself.That's what I thought but she won't let me talk just keeps arguing with me. I think I will just go in physically and have someone check because this is ridiculous! She was even arguing about the number I gave her.

Congrats to everyone finding Catrine! * crosses fingers * I hope I find her soon! Have any Illinois peeps seen her yet?I just found her on my lunch hour at the store on 75th st in Glen Ellyn so she is making her way to Illinois. They had 5 when I go there so 4 left.

Argh you got my hopes up for a second there--I read "Arlington" and thought you meant Arlington, Virginia >_<Congrats to everyone finding Catrine! * crosses fingers * I hope I find her soon!

Still no sign of her here and everyone else is finding her elsewhere...:sad:
Went Caterine hunting and while although I didn't find Caterine, I DID Find the new Swimline dolls and came home with Venus instead! Also spent Caterine money on her...D'oh... :(

where did you find the swim dolls?
Dang! It seems like everyone started to find Catrine all on the same day. Glad everyone is finally getting her! Now that I have her, my next major MH grail is the CAM blob/ice girls. I haven't seen them anywhere and have checked seven different stores so far.

I was hoping to find them in stores, but I may have to resort to getting them online. I just have more fun hunting them down, I guess. :P But I refuse to pay the eBay prices. They are just insane.
Those of you who've gotten Catrine.....and opened the box :biggrin: .....mine has complete helmet head. Her hair is so glued together it doesn't move at all. Is that normal for her? I'm doubly glad I made sure to get the one which had the best looking hair while looking in the store, but I still didn't think it wouldn't move at all. lol

I'm far too lazy to get off the couch and check out the Walmart near my house for Catrine tonight. I'm going to shower and make Eddie look for her tomorrow.

I like the way you work....wish I could get my husband to search for me :). He listened to me excitedly tell him at lunch today abut finally finding Catrine and not having to stalk for her anymore and with a completely non enthused face said " you must have been thrilled". Yeah , at least he tolerates it, lol.

The Swim Dolls have been found in Kmarts here in Illinois. I'm waiting for Meijer to get them since I don't want to drive super far to the only Kmart in the area. Still no word on Catrine. :cry:

Bow Tie if you can't find her soon I grabbed a spare. :) I would check the Wal-Mart on Golf rd if you ever get a chance to go over there.

Is that the one in Rolling Meadows or Niles? I'm on the phone with someone at the Palatine Walmart. Crossing my fingers she's there!

There are 2 in Niles. One on W Touhy and the other on W Golf. I checked them both last night and only checked the one on Touhy today and she was there. From what I noticed they both stock either the same day or a day apart from each other so I would definitely try them both.

Well, he's already going to be there in the toy section to buy me a pony for a commission that I need to start, he may as well look 2 aisles over at the dolls before he moves on to look at the Lego.
Still no Caterine here in Ga. And my target lied, Deuce was not in stock either.
:lookround:Still no Caterine here in Ga. And my target lied, Deuce was not in stock either.
I rarely ever believe what they say... especially if it is online... they tend to be off... A LOT!! :huh:

Never trust what it says online if it's a group of dolls. If it's something like the Clawdeen/Howleen 2 Pack, then yes, that's accurate. Because the DPCI's are the same for each doll in a certain line, any of those dolls could be in stock. All of Budget Scaris have the same DPCI so it will show all of them in stock, but they could have only 3 Draculauras.

Mine has had 3 Abbeys for like the last week... -.-
You'll most likely have to use some boiling water to straighten...I washed out the "gel" and the curve in Catrine's hair is still very present....her hair is looking a lot better as it dries though :)
Your MH section is massive compared to the one at my Walmart. XDComment echoed...

My local Walmart's MH section looks like it could be gone at any given moment because of it's odd layout. I gotta snap a pic of it on Tuesday...
This was my other Walmart tonight, and I even missed one, lol.

ARE YOU *snip* KIDDING ME?!?No sign of Catrine here either. I checked my local Walmart this afternoin, then we went down to Colorado Springs (next big city south of where I live) for bf's mom's bday dinner, and I made bf stop at their (northernmost) Walmart (they actually have several but no way bf would do that) to look for her.
Went from content to fetal position in 2 seconds. New record for me. >,<;
Ya know, the more I look at Scaris Deuce, the more I want him. I'm not fond of the MH boy dolls at all usually, but he has a very cute expression. And even though I prefer 'real' hair, I like the green....thing... on his head.
I probably won't have enough luck to run into him, but if I do, I think I'll get him.
I've passed up so many dolls lately, and seek comfort! Has anyone else had that one doll look 'em square in the eye and had to walk away recently? :P
Having to save and be a grown up on low wage is borrrring.
I really wish a local store would get the deluxe fashion packs. Target has them online now but only sold in stores. So far none of the stores closest to me have them in stock. Walmart, Shopko and Kmart have not had them either. Kmart and Shopko are the only places I have seen fashion packs besides the new singles which finally came to our Target. There aren't even spots for them. Also, cannot wait for the swim line to start showing up.
Fred Meyer has all the new fashions and the swim dolls. I picked some up for my friend when they were Buy 2 get 1 free.
I thought it was only for last week. (Or was it the week before?) >,<; If i knew it was still going on, I would've grabbed all 3.Fred Meyer has all the new fashions and the swim dolls. I picked some up for my friend when they were Buy 2 get 1 free.

I promise you, Luvly, you will find Catrine before me. I can feel it.
So much Catrine all of a sudden!I wonder if this means Mattel is getting on top of distribution ~ eg. trying to make sure things show up everywhere (or at least most places) at the same time, instead of getting them out in dribs and drabs here and there.
Alright, this may be a silly question but, what kind of "trading power" does Catrine have? I mean, I know she is starting to become more avaliable, but to people that do not hae her or in areas that are really behind, would she be worth a blob/cam set or a deuce?
(also, I saw 4 today, picked up one and before I had a chance to campare a man walked over, picked up two, reached for the third one, paused, checked his phone and then left)
*snip*Mine's pale pink. Would you be able to show us the darker pink one? :biggrin:
Question: How PINK is her eyeshadow supposed to be or How pink is your Demew's eyeshadow? JEM pink or a pale pink? Both make her look pretty but very different!

I was wondering if anyone has made up a MH character of their own. I'm trying to do so and drew up a design but I'm just so unsure of it and feel like I'm back to square one. @-@;
I think tomorrow I will do my girls hair! Still undecided or a few but I'm sure I'll figure something out.

I don't have an OC per se, but there are other monsters I'd like to see get made, like the daughter of King Kong or a demon girl. Another western dragon would be cool, too. But I doubt Mattel could get the rights to make a daughter of King Kong, and parents would freak over a demon girl. :(
LuvlyMelody - check your store for Catrine. She was in Covington.Dangit :freak: I should've just waited instead of getting SL Venus. >,<; I'll check it out as soon as I get a little more cash to cover her!! >,<;

Damn. I know for a fact that the local Wal-Marts are only get one case of Catrine at a time. I'm guessing you're in a much more populated area.
I washed Catrine's hair and it's a lot nicer now. No more icky glue. I like that the curl is still there in the front, it's charming. I wish she had more hair to put in a ponytail. I think she would look darling with the two large curls hanging down in the front and have the rest of her hair pulled back. Now I just need her hair to dry.

Oooh, what are your ideas so far??
I have my own MH character! Here she is: She's a WIP but I think she's coming out nicely. :) She's based on me and she's a wererat. At this point I'm thinking that she has white fur/skin, red eyes, and blonde hair, but nothing's really cemented right now.
Still no Catrine at any of my Walmarts here :( I did find her tag at one, but the stock person was clueless and couldn't even tell me after he scanned it if she was in the back or even on order. He just picked up a random DDG and asked me if I was sure this wasn't the doll I wanted :hmm: Uh. Right.
I wanted to ask to look at the freaking scanner myself, but I didn't have the nerve -_-
*snip*Yeah, I can see the difference though! Interesting! The right is much more subtle. I'm not quite sure which one I have now. I'd probably have to see them side-by-side to tell. Now I'm thinking I have the darker. :shrug: Lol
Heres just the eyes/makeup:

It may seem slight on the computer but the brighter eyeshadow is just like BAM vibrant and changes the look completely. Maybe it's just me :freak:
*snip*
*Sigh* My Walmart hasn't gotten theirs yet, I had someone scan with the telecom/computer scanner thingy and they said the shipment of that one is still in shipping or transit or something...Maybe I'll check tonight, maybe I'll strike lucky.
Catrine is the first doll I'm considering washing her hair out. Usually it doesn't bother me so much, but mine is really awful.
Hey guys,
I finally found one lonely Skelita today. It's the only one I've ever seen so I had to grab her.
I just can't get her knees to bend though. When I try her rubbery thighs just kinda bend and I was afraid to break the knee joint if I tried any harder. Were yours hard to move?
Mine were exactly like this at first. I had to hold the thigh and tibia steady and bend the knee very carefully. Once bent, though, it's very easy to pose.

I think she would look darling with the two large curls hanging down in the front and have the rest of her hair pulled back. Now I just need her hair to dry.Lol that's actually what I did with my girl. Well her hair is still setting, but I pulled it back into a small bun, and she has two curls in the front. I originally wanted curls all over her head, but I'm new to messing with doll hair. The short hair frustrated me, so I was all "bun for you cat girl!" :lol:

Oh no it's fine. Knowing that you're able to find her, gives me hope that she'll show up here soon too. I'll give Walmart a few more tries since they say they're in transit, so I'm gonna stay positive that I'll find her either tonight or early tomorrow morning. And if not, the hunt continues! :P*Sigh* My Walmart hasn't gotten theirs yet, I had someone scan with the telecom/computer scanner thingy and they said the shipment of that one is still in shipping or transit or something...Maybe I'll check tonight, maybe I'll strike lucky.
If you don't find her, i can meet up tomorrow if you want one of mine.

I feel your pain :( Tags are out, but no dolls. However, they probably won't stock until the mod is done, so patience!
I too shall try to remain patient. :PStill no Catrine at any of my Walmarts here :( I did find her tag at one, but the stock person was clueless and couldn't even tell me after he scanned it if she was in the back or even on order.

I'm staring at pictures of her while I try to remain patient :lol: Next time I stalk the aisle I hope I can at least find someone who actually knows how to read the scanner (or will let me look!) XD But yeah, the stores are total chaos... I can't tell if they're actually working on the reset or just making a massive mess!
Firecracker and I found Catrine in Colorado Springs! :biggrin:If you found her in the Walmart on Academy, I'm so jealous. I was there Friday night!
Sorry I've been so quite guys!
I'm sure you've all been wondering were I've been <--sarcasm
Anyway my life kinda sucks right now:( My husband and I are getting a divorce. I know this is off topic, but the reason I mention it is because of the divorce I can't shop/collect like I used to:(
I'm hoping to get out soon and sneek a few more dolls onto my credit card before my husband stops paying the bill for me :nod: I'd dying to get out there are look since EVERYONE is finding Catrine so easily (sorry Luvly lol) I've kinda got a thing for the werecats I think. What I'm really hoping I stumble across though, is the newest CAM Starters!
I need so much stuff for my new apartment, though. It's gonna be so hard to justify ANY doll purchase when I need things to survive:( Ugh! Growning up sucks! Don't do it kids:)
Lastly, congrats to everyone who has found their doll grails the past few weeks! Glad to see (almost) everyone happy:) I'm gonna head over to the pic spam thread now. Can't wait:)
I'm really going to have to stop following this thread.
I am getting depressed not being able to find any dolls locally to use my vouchers from Mattel, and not having any money to send to people to help me get the new dolls. :(
She was at the Jackson Creek one. I'm pretty sure they didn't put her out until last night, since she wasn't there when I checked in the afternoon.Firecracker and I found Catrine in Colorado Springs! :biggrin:If you found her in the Walmart on Academy, I'm so jealous. I was there Friday night!
I too shall try to remain patient. :PStill no Catrine at any of my Walmarts here :( I did find her tag at one, but the stock person was clueless and couldn't even tell me after he scanned it if she was in the back or even on order. He just picked up a random DDG and asked me if I was sure this wasn't the doll I wanted :hmm: Uh. Right.
I wanted to ask to look at the freaking scanner myself, but I didn't have the nerve -_-
I feel your pain :( Tags are out, but no dolls. However, they probably won't stock until the mod is done, so patience!
I'm staring at pictures of her while I try to remain patient :lol: Next time I stalk the aisle I hope I can at least find someone who actually knows how to read the scanner (or will let me look!) XD But yeah, the stores are total chaos... I can't tell if they're actually working on the reset or just making a massive mess!
I used to think that, but after seeing what goes down, it's not the workers, it's more of the naughty kids that the parents aren't watching over that are making the messes. Sometimes they'll just let the kids wander off and make a mess.
Thanks for the well wishes everyone:) I'm doing fine. I'll have to check out the thrift shop. I like vintage stuff, stuff that comes with a history.
My husband bought me a shelving unit:) It's funny how things work out. I've been complaining at him for years about needing shelves, and NOW he comes through. Granted, I've got more room for things now, but that's besides the point.
I think I'll be posting pictures now that I'll have a centralized collection:) Alot of the guilt I feel about collecting will fade too, with no one at home judging me.

I just wanted to let you all know. I'm gonna continue to try to be a completionist, but I know it'll be hard on my income alone. Plus I mention him alot in my comments, so....yeah. I'm thinking about changing my username. It contains my married name, which I won't be keeping:(
Sunnie: I'm sorry you can't find what you are looking for:( Don't let it get you down! Things will work out:)
Congrats Vertefae:) Glad to hear!
Sorry I've been so quite guys!It's great to have you back! I'm sorry that had to happen. >,<; :hug: I hope everything turns out for the best!
I'm sure you've all been wondering were I've been <--sarcasm
Anyway my life kinda sucks right now:( My husband and I are getting a divorce. I know this is off topic, but the reason I mention it is because of the divorce I can't shop/collect like I used to:(
I'm hoping to get out soon and sneek a few more dolls onto my credit card before my husband stops paying the bill for me :nod: I'd dying to get out there are look since EVERYONE is finding Catrine so easily (sorry Luvly lol) I've kinda got a thing for the werecats I think. What I'm really hoping I stumble across though, is the newest CAM Starters!
I need so much stuff for my new apartment, though. It's gonna be so hard to justify ANY doll purchase when I need things to survive:( Ugh! Growning up sucks! Don't do it kids:)
Lastly, congrats to everyone who has found their doll grails the past few weeks! Glad to see (almost) everyone happy:) I'm gonna head over to the pic spam thread now. Can't wait:)
Has anyone else noticed that a lot of the Scaris Ghoulias have really wonky clothes? It seems most of the ones I've seen have crooked screenprinting and/or crooked sewing on the front pocket of the dress. Some of them have been laughably bad.
Only one of the ten or so Scaris Ghoulias I've come across had good clothes, good glasses, and good paint.
OMG!! My husband is the best!! He just went to Target to get soda and happened to see **ANOTHER** scaris deuce... and picked it up for me... :biggrin: (first time he has EVER picked up a doll for me... normally he rolls his eyes when I ask him to go near the doll section... )
I just caught up with this thread and read your previous post. I'm sorry you have to go through all of that. I hope things work out better for you!!
Thanks everyone here is hoping I'll find something soon.
And thank your asking what dolls I need but I'm literally broke after paying my bills, and only have Mattels' vouchers that are going to expire at the end of this month. Here is hoping I find something soon or I will be calling them to send me a new one hopefully.
I did have a job interview friday and here is hoping I'll get a job soon.

I know this is more work than it's worth, but could you find someone to trade with? Buy a doll with your voucher and trade for the doll you want? Just an unhelpful thought :blush:
Still no Swim dolls at Meijer. I'm just dying for Meijer to get them in!
Still no Swim dolls at Meijer. I'm just dying for Meijer to get them in!
I'm dying to see the Swim dolls too! I'd love them to release EVERY doll in this line! Loving the highlighter colors<3 Well, I haven't seen them IRL but I love owner pics online :blush: Love love love all the neon!
We don't have a Meijer or Kroger or anything like that here. My KMart is a complete waste of space. I'm afraid I'll never see them!! :sigh:

If I ever get any more money somehow, I wouldn't mind trying to help out in the near future, with getting the new Swimline dolls!
Now that Caterine is now in my possession, I am basically on my MH break!! (Except for the 2 more CAM sets, which NEVER made their way up here...>,>)
Gorgon/Mummy & Blob/Ice girls. Since I'm on my break, broke, and they've still haven't made their way up here, I'm willing to wait a while, it'll give me time to "relax" and save up money for once they do get up here. CAM's usually sit on the shelves longer than most of the other dolls I noticed. :PIf I ever get any more money somehow, I wouldn't mind trying to help out in the near future, with getting the new Swimline dolls!

I know where I live, my grocery store is where I'd go to find the Wave 2 Dead Tired, Killer Style(?) Frankie and Draculaura [that came with keychains], and some of the other budget-line dolls.
Thanks! :D Yeah, I was nearly screaming in joy when I kept on getting bonuses and jackpots. Was an awesome night. Got my car insurance paid off and still nearly $400 extra.That's so awesome!! What a terrific win for you, I'm so happy for you:)
Do you think she will still be available next month? I can't find her here and don't have much money til the beginning of March to have someone send her.
So I made my little Target trip and got the Gloom Beach set. I am so in love with the Cleo and Clawdeen in this set. She looks good with the purple/green hair.hmmmm.........I've seen both the Skull Shores and Gloom Beach here. Is the Gloom Beach rare???? Don't tell me that!! :biggrin:
EDIT: My bad. It's the Skull Shores set. The Gloom Beach one is rare, eh?
I also came home with a Bratzillaz. She had pink hair and a pink outfit. I could not resist.
So yesterday I took my mom to a casino to treat her to some gambling time since I got my tax return and I was feeling generous. I decided I'd try my hand at it too. I left with over $500 more than I came with. I couldn't believe it. My luck was amazing.
So because of this.....I am thinking about buying something I've been eyeballing for months. The Gloom Beach set at Target. I love the versions of Clawdeen and Cleo in it. I definitely have the money, but I am torn as to whether I 'need' it or not.
It is getting rarer and rarer. I just bought my extra GB set because I think it was a return at my Target as we have not had that set at all since I started collecting last September.Oh my Gawd!! Don't tell me this......I JUST told myself I wouldn't buy any more for a while. :biggrin: :blush: :biggrin:
Does anyone know if the new Swim Girls are going to come to Canada? DT2 never did, and I kinda might want that Lagoona... And by kinda, I mean OMG SHE'S SO PRETTY!
I contacted Mattel customer service about my Skelita doll's legs (which are fixed now, derp), and subsequently received an email with a return label. This was the first sentence in the email:Oh My!! ROFL
"Thank you for contacting Mattel regarding your Monster High® Scaris Doll Ass."
XD
Do you think she will still be available next month? I can't find her here and don't have much money til the beginning of March to have someone send her.
I think I have one left since I was holding for someone that decided not to get it... I also have a really awesome toy section lady who has stashed away 5 at my local Walmart :) it's kind of awesome because her sticker is gone... So it doesn't look like they even modded for her...
Thanks michelle, but someone here already PMed me with an offer so no need to hunt for one. I appreciate the offer.It's cause we love you so much!
Heh, that was fast. XD Never thought I'd get a response so quickly.
I just got my sig Cleo I am trading a custom pony for with wiccanpony1. I just adore her!! I love the color of her lips, she reminds me of Inara on Firefly with them.
Following up on what mehjohnson said, I furnished half my apartment for only a couple hundred bucks by shopping the local thrift stores. :) Don't forget how much a coat of paint and little love can improve the look of something. I did that with some of mine and they look like whole new pieces.

Has anyone seen the two new CAM add on packs with any regularity? I have yet to see them at all in a store, and I'm just wondering if they have terrible distribution, or if they haven't really been released yet and the few that slipped out in November were flukes...I've only seen them once...The first time I saw and bought them, never saw them again ever since...>,<;

I'm not sure how to add it to this post :blush: but someone in the Monster High Dolls Facebook group made a really awesome looking custom RM Draculaura. Here's the link to their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/themonsterhighdolls (https://www.facebook.com/themonsterhighdolls)
I agree, little fanged Draculaura would've made an amazing base, instead of slobbering Draculaura. :P But still a good custom altogether.
Ugh I'm starting to not like these stands. >,>;
1)They make the ghouls lean back and can't make them stand straight, thus leading to toppling over.
2)The clip/holders are sometimes too tight and when I try to put them on/take them off, I'm scared it'll rip their clothes. I already feel paranoid that I think I may have stretched/scratched the vinyl on Robecca's dress.
I wonder how the stands on the Ghouls Alive dolls are compared to the regular stands.
Can you guys show me how you put your ghouls on their stands so I can get some kind of idea of what I may be doing wrong?? Please and thank you!!

Awwww dang!! If only it was real!! Looks very legit too and everything...But if I ended up getting an RM Draculaura, then I'll have to get the rest, and that means tracking them down, and buy them and buying them means more money. >,<; :freak:
If they made like a Target RM 5 Set with Frankie Clawdeen, Ghoulia and added Draculaura and Long haired Cleo, that would be an awesome set!!
Ahh all this talk of RM ghouls is making me wanna watch the special again. XD
I have found it easier to slide the clip part on sideways and then turning it so they face the front. Make sure to do it on the side that the top velcro piece overlaps the bottom one so you don't rip or undo the velcro. This has made it much easier to get the stands on without ripping clothes or feeling like you will break the clip. I still hate the way the stands tilt back. I have to go back through some of the first dolls that I deboxed and make sure that the base is actually "clicked" into the stand because some of the stands just come apart rather than staying together and I am hoping it is mainly because I didn't realize at first they actually click together rather than just sitting in the hole.That's actually how I've been doing it! It's still tight on a few of the stands. >,< I might just try to have them leaning against the wall or something like Rococo suggested. Or until I get a Ghouls Alive doll and try their stand.
An All boys RM Target 5 pack!! Deuce, Clawd and Gil with injury accessories (Snake casts, Dog cone collar, water helmet with a huge crack on it), Manny and Heath withAwwww dang!! If only it was real!! Looks very legit too and everything...But if I ended up getting an RM Draculaura, then I'll have to get the rest, and that means tracking them down, and buy them and buying them means more money. >,<; :freak:

I could totally see them doing a RM Target 5 Pack!
Hmmm An exclusive Cleo, Lala would be awesome. but even better if they threw in Clawd, Heath and Gil to the Five Pack would be even more AWESOME!
Is anyone else having a problem with Ghouls Alive Spectra's leg falling off? I gave one to my daughter for her birthday on Saturday, and the leg won't stay on. Oh poops:(
That RM Draculara is spectacular! I would *totes* buy her:)

Oh poops:(I can't remember who originally posted about it, but it is a known problem =/ They stated that like 6 of the ones even in the boxes had their legs falling off. I'd try wrapping some tape around the peg.

Argh, so I had to go to the dentist today (so many needles, so much ow :cry:) and I was really hoping the MH gods would smile on me afterwards and reward me for my bravery with a Catrine! But no. :sad: I did find a stock person who knew how to check her tag on the scanner and apparently they don't even have any of her in the warehouse! What. -_-
Sooo this is me giving up hunting and issuing an official plea--anyone have an extra Catrine for sale, or could pick one up for me? :heart: I think you guys are going to be my only chance to get her.

Aww... hugs! If you check the new Walmart mod sheets, there's two shelf spaces dedicated to Catrine, so she's coming!
oh gheeze, no arms!! XD As for the HS, I'd assume it's leftover stock...I LOVE that release of Lagoona though, her all soft blue faceup. I hope they stay around long enough to go on clearance.Oh man, if it goes on clearance I'm nabbing it. I already have that Lagoona but I'd love to get her test tube bed to brighten my desk with #_#
I wish it would go on clearance so I can get DT for my fiance. But clearances at TRU are never on things you want to go on sale. It's always stuff that should never have been made/put on the shelf to begin with... /sigh.Well hey, do you want to go halfsies with me? I'll keep the bed and you get the doll (and accessories, the lotion and water bottle and Neptuna and stuff)? All I'm missing is the stand.

I have yet to see them at all in a store, and I'm just wondering if they have terrible distribution, or if they haven't really been released yet and the few that slipped out in November were flukes...I found the Siren at Kmart pretty recently, maybe a couple weeks ago? I think they’re just limited in the amount they’re releasing right now (same for Ice/Blob and Mummy/Gorgon) and they’ll become more common eventually.
Oooh, what are your ideas so far??
I have my own MH character! Here she is: She's a WIP but I think she's coming out nicely. :) She's based on me and she's a wererat. At this point I'm thinking that she has white fur/skin, red eyes, and blonde hair, but nothing's really cemented right now.
I love your OC! She is so awesome! This is the one I drew up yesterday. She's supposed to be the daughter of the pixies. But I feel really blah about her and feel that she looks to much like a Winx.
I'd totally love to see everyones OC's though!
:o! I'd have to talk it over with my fiance.. we've got our house taxes comin' up so unlikely, sadly. Only reason I'm gonna be allowed to get Catrine is that the money to get her will be funneled back into the bank account /sob.I wish it would go on clearance so I can get DT for my fiance.

For those looking for the ice/blob and mummy/gorgon CAM sets they are on the justice website again... I think they are still running a 40% off promotion... Use code 708 at check out... It makes them $24.00... I am unsure if they do shipping overseas, but if you know someone in the states... it might help... :)Do you know if they have them instore or just online?
Heeey, so uh, Saply, do you still have your two-headed girl? (These are the questions that keep me up at night. XD)Nope O: We didn't quite ~bond~, so they are now owned by another Arena member.

I was just curious because we have a Justice store just down the street from me and I've never thought to check there before. :blush:For those looking for the ice/blob and mummy/gorgon CAM sets they are on the justice website again...

No its an online/instore promotion... so if you could find them in stores they would be the same price... However... I would call around and see if they have them first off.. nothing like going in to find them not there... Just a thought :)
Keelee: She's with me! :>
This is just a quick snap I sent to Saply upon their arrival, but I'm sure it won't be the last picture you see of her.. eh.. them! ^^

Hydration Station: I want it!! Is it really that awfully loud? ;O;
I wait for it to go on clearance SOMEWHERE tho.. all the stores around me have it shelf-warming for like a year now and still want to sell it for €50. IT'S NOT GONNA WORK YOU GUYS, reduce the darn thing already! xD;

Catrine has hit the UK.
Got to say she has the worse QC I have ever seen.
My asda had 8 and only 3 were good enough to buy, and they are not perfect.

Today Justice has them priced BOGO Buy One Get One Free. So, $40 for BOTH sets. That deal is good for any item on their website. And of course, I'm broke. Heh. Oh, Copon code 780. And I think it's today only.

Also...has anyone here outside of the US bought stuff from Justice online? I'm curious because in the final checkout page I'm not getting any import fees added on to my order, and I'm wondering if something will be added on later (their international shipping is kind of high, so import fees on top of what my order would already be kinda makes it not worth it for me).

I *almost* placed an order with them the other day; when I went to checkout, the address section was set up only for USA addresses, there was no option to choose a country, and you have to input a state, there's no option for provinces or whatever.

It lets you input Canadian billing addresses, but the shipping section won't auto fill when the 'shipping address same as billing address' is checked. You have to put in the address manually.
I was able to enter everything just fine, but backed out because 1)I'm worried about duty fees, and 2)I promised myself I wouldn't buy anything in February except for my boyfriend's birthday gift. It was really hard to stick by when I realized how much I would save if I added all of the dolls I've been wanting to the cart at the same time :cry:
Catrine has hit the UK.Ohh that's pretty cool that she's showing up in the UK around the same time we're getting her in the states! Can't wait to see the great shots you've taken of her! (If you've gotten one without too bad of a flaw)

Yeah, rather than spending more than you need to on them, I'd just wait it out till they show up in your area!
If you can, try talking to some kind of manager at customer service - that's the only way I was able to find Catrine locally. I spoke with the front-end manager at my local Wal-Mart and with the item number/UPC(30565267/74677524070, respectively) she was able to check all the stores within driving distance, tell me how many were in stock or on order, and she called to have the closest one put a doll on hold for me. She also told me that they are short on them in the warehouse or something, and even though a case had been earmarked for my store, there's a chance it would end up getting sent elsewhere since there's not enough for all the stores that are supposed to get them. I imagine that if we wait a tad longer, they will get properly stocked and we'll start seeing a few more Catrines on the shelves here. Good luck in your search!
It's horrendous. >_< Dolly hunting is something I enjoy... I like going to a store and finding a doll that I've been searching for and squeeing a little. XD
But I enjoy getting a deal more...and it makes shopping a little less fun when I know that if I order a bunch of the dolls I want online all at once I save a bunch.
Anyone else picking up the Monster High Double Feature today? I'm going to work early to pick one up on the way as well as pick up my copy of Peter Pan at the Disney Store. Can't wait to have 'em! :biggrin:

I did! I cannot believe how much I am spoiling myself. I am gonna make my momma watch it with me! Had to stop at Wal-Mart to get some groceries for my mom, so I brought it home with me.
Has anyone else seen these dollhouses? They're called Spooky Mansion and are displayed with the MH schools at my Kmart.

ok, so I wonder, has anyone seen Caterine with wonk eye? I found one, just one today. I knew if I didnt snag her, I may never get her, at least at that price. But, she has a fairy serious case of Wonk-eye...Yesterday, I saw 6 Catrines at my Walmart. 3 had various face issues: 1 lip smear, 2 eye scratches. I wouldn't say it was wonk... But definitely an eye issue.
Has anyone else seen these dollhouses? They're called Spooky Mansion and are displayed with the MH schools at my Kmart.lol I saw that on the Walmart website one day while browsing MH stuff. Haven't seen it in person yet. I thought it would've made a great alternative for those who weren't able to get the High School Playset.
Same, 3 had eye scratches, 1 had a lip smear/chip, and all of them had a eye shadow leak on each right eyeok, so I wonder, has anyone seen Caterine with wonk eye? I found one, just one today.

Oh no.. :c
I truly hate Mattel's sloppy QC! If I ever stopped collecting these dolls it would be because of THAT! Even worse on an exclusive doll if you ask me.
My Sig Howleen is seriously wonk-eyed and I never managed to find a good replacement for her. =_=
Ooh, my mum will be happy she's appearing over here. :D Sucks about the QC though. :|
What part of the UK are you in? ; _ ; We don't have an ASDA nearby unfortunately, but I might be going Stockport on Thursday...
Ohh that's pretty cool that she's showing up in the UK around the same time we're getting her in the states! Can't wait to see the great shots you've taken of her! (If you've gotten one without too bad of a flaw)
Of all the 6 I saw, they all had some kind of bad error, even the best one I found of the 6 had a small flaw(s). >,>;
I got the new MH double feature today. My oldest daughter and I already watched it today :)I've never gone back to walmart ever once I got her!! XD It feels weird now, now that I don't have to go to Walmart everyday to search for her...Weird. :huh:
I found RM Clawdeen and Abbey at Target which I was totally not expecting. LOVE them!! Boy am I glad I got Catrine first thing in the morning after being delivered at Walmart the night before cause when I went there yesterday to get my perscription she was gone.
Catrine obtained! Wow is her head a helmet of glue! Also, her make-up is a bit different from the prototype. I wish they had stuck with their original colours and highlights! They were a tad softer looking. But she's still a cutie :D :D :DI think the eyeshadow at least varies a lot from doll to doll. Each Catrine I looked at had a different shade of pink varying from baby pink to neon pink. I got one in the middle.
I'm re-watching Friday Night Frights and I'm really happy with how Draculaura stood up to Clawd and told him that her friends need her and that she shouldn't have to do whatever he says. I think that's a great thing to teach young girls. :)Yeah absolutely! I was so happy they included a scene like that. ^^
Went to Walmart today just to see if Catrine was there and only found a label for her. Also, I'm not sure if anyone has ever mentioned this before but the Michael's Arts and Crafts I work at has a ton of Monster High supplies such as stickers, rulers, pencil cases, erasers, and pencils :)I actually saw some of those at Michael's but didn't have enough money to get most of what I wanted. :P I swear like 85-90% of most of them were dollar stuff from Target!! I almost grabbed me one of the pencil cases and other stuff, but the pencil case felt pretty cheap, or at least, too cheap to be $3 and felt more like it should've been a dollar...
I was in Denver, Colorado yesterday for work- stopped by the Target and they had a TON of Monster High stuff! It was the late afternoon- but they still had Deuce Scaris, Wonder Wolfs, Howleen roller dolls, the regular Scaris dolls- and oddly enough an original Rochelle Goyle (and lots more I can't think of). Didn't see Catrine, but again- it was late afternoon, so maybe she sold out.
(they also had a ton of pony stuff including the colorable ponies). I only had enough room in my bag to snag a Deuce for my sister- but if anyone lives (or has a family member) near Denver- it might be worth having them check the place out since it is obviously not within the territory of a scalper. (Oh- and the dolls were all on sale)
Hmm. Are there any dolls that have white hands that might match Catrines white? I would love to swap her hands for some with no gloves but I cant think of any who might work.

No, any of the white dolls have different colored hands. Spectra's are clear, Cupid's are black with a lace pattern, and Skelita's are off-white, and bony. And so are the CaM skeleton hands.
MH is going on sale at TRU on Friday. Not sure if that's everywhere or just here in Alberta, but I figured I'd let people know. :)

There were 4 at my TRU today... I grabbed 2 of the better ones... I am sadly disappointed as both of the Toralei in them look like they forgot to paint a small section on her inner knee... Possibly where the stamp is on her.... If I can get a picture of them I will....

Here is it... I have circled them... they are still hard to see, but they are visible... All 4 packs had them... The other 2 I didnt get had funky eyes on one of the Purrsephone's and then the paint was coming off of Meowlody's leg on the other

***ATTENTION***
For those who want the Blob/Ice CAM, it is available on the Target website for purchase!!
I might be able to do it :) I will check the TRU's around me...
I would definitely be interested in the 2 you mentioned :)
Does anyone have access to the first fearleading 3 pack? i hid one at Tru but someone obviously found it before I could get back...
I'm jealous of all you finding RM Abbey! Gotta say I love her shorter hairstyle. And it has the pretty green streak in it, right? Hmm....hopefully I'll find her soon. I live in the midwest so I should probably expect a very long wait. :PMy local Kmart has a bunch of the RM 2 pack with Ghoulia and Abbey if anyone wants me to grab one for you it wouldn't be a problem. Those of you who've gotten the newer Abbey by herself, does her hair have the "sparkle" the 2 pack does? In the pics it seems like it's not. Just curious. :)
DC Howleen is available for $11.99 on Amazon.com right now.Wow Amazon likes to hurt me. I saw that up for the $14.50 the other day, after I had gotten mine. Now they lower the price /shakes fist.

I am going to strangle Fedex SmartPost. I know my fashion pack is at my local Post Office, but it was probably too late for them to toss it on a truck. It left Orlando at 4:30 this morning, and got to my post office at 9:50. I'm gonna sit in a corner and whine, lol.

That happened to me a couple of times with USPS. The worst is when it arrives during the day, doesn't go out with the mail the next day and they finally decide to put it on the truck the day after. Ugh.
I could not BELIEVE what I found tucked in boxes at Target last night. Scaris Deuce! I never thought I would find him!Yeah, she is the only Scaris doll I seem to find. Worst part is, I hated her. Now I kinda want her....
Poor Scaris Frankie, I think she is beautiful, but apparently she is the shelf warmer of the set :/
Guys, I came this close...this close to getting all the boys for $20 a piece from someone on Craigslist. If I'd just checked a day sooner. *facepalm*

TRU Y U DO THIS.
This is now three things I need to go to TRU for (the last being not MH related, but the new Power Morpher that was just released...)
Hey guys! There's going to be a Scaris 2-Pack! No idea who is in it, but someone posted a picture of a tag on a TRU shelf on MHDolls.com! I called my TRU about it and they didn't have any information on it other than it is a 2-Pack.
Here's a link to the thread: http://www.monsterhighdolls.com/forum/topics/new-toys-r-us-exclusive-scaris-2-pack
I'm praying it's Lagoona and Cleo or Cleo and Deuce! *O*

Me too! But TrU, why you do this to us? They sneak out everything!
Haha, yeah my fiance is DYING for it. He had his original (with the weird White Tiger coin), but we had to sell it a few months ago due to desperation. This new one is leaps and bounds better and it went up on TRU but I guess promptly sold out /sob. I'd totally give up Catrine for him to get it!TRU Y U DO THIS.

I need that Power Morpher too! My friend grabbed two at a TRU in SoCal. I'm dying to get my hands on one myself! *O*
If it is him, his MIB prices will go down dramatically.Would totally not mind that >_______> (Yeah yeah, selfish little ole Icy..)

Based on the Scaris artwork, I'm going to assume the 2-pack is Cleo and Lagoona since those are the only two that weren't made into dolls.

Eee! My best friend in Cali said she got free tickets to SDCC for all 4 days, plus Preview night! She says if I get her the info and the money, she will try and pick up the SDCC MH doll for me! I have no idea what it will even be yet, so I'm hoping it will be one that I want! Im so excited!

Found the swim dolls today at Kmart! I have to say I am not as impressed as I was with the stock photos but I still like them. I am really disappointed about the plastic features on the swimsuits. It kind of cheapens them up I think. Lagoona went from my favorite in the stock photos to my least favorite of the three.
Also, what the heck is up with Mattel not including stands with the slim boxed dolls anymore? Seems like the last line that had them were the RM ghouls. I have a seriously large ghoul to stand ratio going on and it is getting bigger and I don't like it!
1) Most 2 packs (except for Clawdeen/Howleen & the twins) have been boy-girl

You are so lucky! I need to start working my contacts- I have an aunt and uncle that attend the fair every year as vendors- but I feel a little sheepish asking them to stand in line to get a doll for me... must be brave!
Reasons it won't be a boy:
1) Lagoona and Cleo make sense due to the artwork-
2) Boys are disfavored by Mattel/the stores purchasing them- so probably 2 boys in a single line is unlikely
BUT
1) Most 2 packs (except for Clawdeen/Howleen & the twins) have been boy-girl
2) If the release co-insides with Valentine's day- wouldn't it be more likely to be a couple?
I can't wait to find out....

I think the stand thing is because the swim line is a cheaper line/basic line- so the stand was cut out to save cost so they could offer it at a low price. If you want to get stands you could always order them from the Mattel parts shop?
1) Most 2 packs (except for Clawdeen/Howleen & the twins) have been boy-girl
The RM 2-pack is also girl/girl. I don't think they'd make a boy an exclusive.

Do they normally announce the SDCC doll at the toy fair thats coming up in a couple days?]
Right- I don't know what I was thinking- they will have the new line-up, but will not likely reveal the SDCC exclusive. I am dying to see the line-up though, because if they have the Daughter of Arachne prototype at teh fair- then she will be a regular release or store exclusive and not the SDCC doll. So at least we will know who the exclusive will NOT be at least...
Who else has been seen in the Scaris artwork? If Deuce is going, wouldn't Cleo be a good candidate?
Well, Cleo and Lagoona are the ones that are missing. I would be sad if they made Cleo and left Lagoona out.

Now I'm pretty sure it will be Cleo & Goona, lol. LOOK, they already have the vectors for the box-art, too! x'D
(srsly.. I love this pic - is it from Rochelle's diary? - But I cannot help but snort at how obviously they recycle the vectors.. But Hasbro is more than guilty of that, too. Sigh. xD)

They were up at the $14.99 price mark on sale for $13, same price as the RM dolls that have stands and pretty much all the other slim boxed dolls I have seen. It just seems that they are not including as much but not really dropping price. That's my opinion anyway. I know they have them in their online shop but $4 a stand is a little ridiculous for something that used to come with the dolls anyway.
That webisode was awesome! This and the PD one were definitely reminiscent of the first volume.
I'd be shocked if that TRU exclusive 2 pack wasn't Lagoona and Cleo. We have the artwork for them, they feature prominently in the trailer for the movie, and we don't have either of them yet. And multi-pack exclusives haven't included a previously released boy to date. The only time I recall a guy being included in an exclusive set was the SDCC one, with Scarah and Hoo-dude. And Hoo-dude isn't like the other dolls :PFound the swim dolls today at Kmart! I have to say I am not as impressed as I was with the stock photos but I still like them.

The cost of manufacturing goes up every year, while the base price of the dolls hasn't really. Of course, places like TRU jack the prices, but Target and Walmart haven't really increased the price, which means that Mattel isn't charging them a higher price. The signature dolls still come with pets, accessory and detailed fashions, and even the basic dolls include little accessories like they always have. Maybe I'm biased because I don't really use the stands, but I'd prefer no stands instead of less accessories, or a higher price on the dolls.
Holy mackerel! Mattel has amazing customer service. I got the Ice/Blob girls today and the Blob girl had two left hands, so they're just sending me a whole new set @_@

If you look at the links on the sidebar of that site, it tells you what will be shown at the Toy Fair.
Oh wow! Gigi has freckles!
Hey guys,omg i want that lagoona so bad that it hurts
Mattel has some really nice high-res pics of the 13 Wishes dolls up here: http://mattelbrandsmedia.com/product.php?category=33&product=24
MONSTER HIGH Doll + Playset/Die-ner and DRACULAURA #Y7719 :
Who's hungry? Not one who enjoys classic food, Draculaura has opened a die-ner to offer a menu designed to please the ghouls of Monster High. Classic items include bat-winged tomato soup with grilled cheese, milkshakes and a ghost pie (that sits boo-tifully on the cake stand). Hungry die-ners can fang out at the iCounter in a tombstone stool or on a bench at the coffin-shaped table. The spook-tacular decor features a counter with oven and grill behind it, dangling signage decorated with a Skullete detail, a clock on top of the counter and a mini-Tombbox (jukebox). The food is to die for - and to pay for, at the register before you go! Boo appetit!
MONSTER HIGH Music Festival Doll Assortment #Y7692 :
Ghouls like to groove, and a music festival is sure to be a howling good time! Each of these music-lovers is dressed to express their favorite genre. Venus McFlytrap doll will draw others in with her hip plunk attitude and dress - that's plant punk, for the uninitiated. Clawdeen Wolf doll is ready to rock and roar in an R&B-inspired jumpsuit, looking fierce - as always! And Abbey Bominable defines cool in an outfit that celebrates the music associated with Himalayan heritage. Each doll carries a VIP badge to get them backstage. Dolls cannot stand alone and will be sold separately, subject to availability
They've got the Musical Festival dolls listed on the site too, although it just comes up blank at the moment. Better keep our eyes on that site, as they'll no doubt add some pics eventually.I'd imagine we'd see them at Toy Fair, since that's what the page is stuff for.
http://mattelbrandsmedia.com/product.php?category=33&product=25I will talk about that Clawdeen. She would have been an instant sell for me if it wasn't for the lips.
Guys. GUYS.
Can we talk about this Clawdeen? Have we already talked about this Clawdeen? Let's talk about this Clawdeen again.

She has some reallly long nails too. And I think she has some kind of scorpion aspect to her as well. If you look at her arms and legs, there are details that make it look like her skin is plated. (I don't know how else to word it) Edit: And now her hair reminds me of a scorpion tail.
I'm glad we won't be seeing these dolls in stores until July. That gives me plenty of time to save up for them :P
13 Wishes Party Doll Draculaura seems to have the older smaller hands.. Am I wrong?She has the pointing hands that the GB and Sweet 1600 Lalas had.

soooooooooo many new shoes :heart: :faint:
Twyla's outfit and body are fantastic but I do not like her face... she reminds me too much of CAMs. Gigi is probably a pass--I don't think I like anything about her. Howleen looking adorable as always and Lagoona looks really interesting! It looks like her yet it doesn't. Is Twyla gonna have the Howleen-sized body?
I still haven't gotten my hands on Jinafire or Skelita or RM Clawdeen and Wonder Wolf *so behind sobsob*
Speaking of -- where is Cleo in this line? :? She's been in almost every single movie, and she has rendition dolls for one of them.Cleo comes with an oasis-themed hot tub playset. Don't know if the pic was leaked yet or not. There's also Spectra, who comes with a DJ tent thing with real speakers and an audio jack so you can hook up your mp3 player.
Twyla reminds me of one of tumblr's pastel goths. All she needs are some upside-down crosses.
Hey wait...

Ugh my Holween came in the mail. I HATE her claw hands. They're so grabby and look like old people hands. ugh.

I no rite? You'd think they could have come up with something better.

If you can get a pair of Cleo's hands, they'd work great as a replacement. She and Howleen share the same skintone.
Not as detailed as the promo images that popped up last night, but sneak peak photo of the 13 Wishes dolls from Toyfair has been posted online:

I also just read a rumor that there's going to be at least one store exclusive doll for this line (maybe more). I wonder who it could be?
Twyla reminds me of one of tumblr's pastel goths. All she needs are some upside-down crosses.
Hehehe!
Part of the reason why she is a must-have for me. What a cutie!
And the close-up finally shows more of her dream/nightmare theme. Dreamcatchers, bunny plush (dustbunny? *g*) and I still think the thorns are a nod to Sleeping Beauty.
I'm not kidding, I've fallen in love with this doll *swoons*
I understood why the name Grant, but then my thoughts went to Lizzy Grant/Lana Del Rey and those long nails she has!! :PI actually like it! She grants wishes. My bestie and me just have this really dumb "Dr. Grant" meme going on, hence why I chose a Dr. Grant gif *is childish*Hey wait...I no rite? You'd think they could have come up with something better.

How easy (and or dangerous) is it to remove hands/forearms on dolls? I'm planning on doing a custom, but the character has long white gloves on. The idea of sewing itty bitty gloves (especially with the splayed fingers the girls tend to have) seems daunting, so if the arms are pretty easily removeable and I'm not going to risk breaking stuff it might be easier to just buy a replacement set for Nefera and paint the gloves directly onto one set of arms.
Was anyone else disappointed by RM Ghoulia? When I saw the pics online I was super excited and couldn't wait to get her, but in person she just didn't wow me. The brain helmet would be the big seller for me, except that it doesn't actually look like a brain at all. MH stuff is almost always wonderfully sculpted, I don't know why they fell off on that one thing.
Anyway, no point here really, just wondering if anyone else felt similarly, or if I'm just the pickiest MH collector ever.

I'm not disappointed because I didn't expect anything good. 99% of her dolls are just horrid to me. Scaris is the only one that I like. For RM, her hairstyle is terrible, her outfit is ugly. Everything about Ghoulia is just ugly. D:

that is your opinion. personally Ghoulia is one of my favorites, so I will have to respectfully disagree.
People have different tastes. I personally think Cleo is boring, and will most likely never own one. to each their own.

Also, take down RM Ghoulia's hair and remove her glasses and WOW. She's basically one of the most gorgeous dolls ever in my opinion. The green theme worked so well with her!

YES the green works so well with her! I kinda dig her dress too, but Im a fan of neon :lol: but i think Ghoulia is awesome if you take off her glasses.....and i usually re-style her to that her bangs are gone or minimal....love her that way :heart:
I love how she's the brains of the outfit.
I love how she's the brains of the outfit.
ba-dm-bah! LOL
they need to stop giving the poor girl bangs.....the bangs are what kill her. to see her worst releases without the bangs (ss) she is really pretty adorable

Has anyone seen the '1600 and Pregnant' customs on etsy? What a riot!

So I wrote to Mattel expressing my disappointment in the CAM's coming with 1 torso. They wrote back today saying that they are going to include 2 torsos in each pack, plus the torso set they were selling is discontinued and they are sending me a green torso with upper limbs in the mail... Wasn't what I expected as a outcome at all... I am happy to hear they are going to make changes, but I had hoped they would have said they were going to sell the torso pack in the stores, not discontinue them. :( I still need a blue torso for my poor alien girl.
I too, would like it. Even add to it if you posted it. XDHas anyone seen the '1600 and Pregnant' customs on etsy? What a riot!.....There are not many polite ways I can express my um... disinterest in those...
I would so 'Like' your post if I could, Icicle. Well said.
I noticed similar things the other day while I was rebodying my poor one handed Sig. Clawdeen and reached for my spare CB Clawdeen's body instead and couldn't help but notice it was significantly more caramel colored than the other body. Thought it was odd/interestingPictures Ravie?? I'd love to see her:)
Also, spent the evening yesterday adding gold streaks to a 1600 Clawdeen only to actually hate the outcome >.<
I am bored with Lagoona's 70s style outfits. I wish she dressed more like an Aussie.
I might have a spare pair Tuney, are they her standard or are they a different style.
Grats on finding Skelita and Jinafire Lilac! And you were saying you haven't found them yet in that other thread. :P Now you've found them!
I too would like to see pictures of this Clawdeen rehair. :P
Michelle, make an igloo for your ghouls! If you have abbey, even better! XD

Ok, I've been spending the day stuck inside. Due to the 20+ inches of snow that got dumped on us in the last 24 hours, there is a driving ban in the state of Massachusetts. Can't wait for more official Toy Fair news cause I'm slowly losing my mind!!!! At least the kids aren't sick anymore :lol:
Random observation: DC Howleen's hands are very, very loose:(
The Monster High Dolls Facebook group shared someone else's pictures from Target. The 13 Wishes dolls and the Color Me Creepy Chamber are in Target's system already :blink:target y do u do dis to me.

Holy cow Tuney, I love your new avatar!! That is just fabulous.
So I was just wondering does anyone know if Scaris is getting a DVD release? They just kinda jumped to 13 wishes.
Ravie- I just adore Clawdeen with the gold streaks! She is so beautiful.
I think they want to get more interest in the movie than the toys, since the dolls are so popular. So it becomes "MOMMY MOMMY LOOK THERE'S A MOVIE THAT HAS MY GENIE/DRAGON/SKELETON IN IT WE GOTTA GET IT~!"So I was just wondering does anyone know if Scaris is getting a DVD release? They just kinda jumped to 13 wishes.
Ravie- I just adore Clawdeen with the gold streaks! She is so beautiful.
I know. And I don't get why they don't release these movies before the toys. Isn't that what is supposed to lure kids in and get them to want the dolls even more?

or maybe i'm just sick of the 1600 face *shrug*
ha, highly possible since I have four of them x.X Maybe I should sell her and replace her with a different face XDSell her to meeeeeee!! Hehe, did I just say that out loud? So no Wydowna making an appearance yet:(. I am Michelle's sad face.
After watching Time for Play's video, I'm really liking Clawdeen and Draculaura more now. I can't wait to see them in person! :biggrin: I'm still not sold on Gigi. I wish she would have looked more like a Gerudo or Nabooru from Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of time.....cannot unsee Gerudo fashion sense... with her.... /smacks face.

If I had the talent, I would so do that! I think a Robecca or a Cleo/Nefera would be perfect bases for them!
^ I am just nodding my head and agreeing to all of the above.
:heart: love me some Ocarina
and I would have loved some Tarta Tatra of Chizeta from Magic Knight Rayearth. I know they have their own Djinns but I love them.
@Ravie I'm looking at the pictures, I think she looks fine, heck it matches her faceup and outfit too.
Arrgh does this mean they're gonna show up soon if they're already in the system?! I thought Toy Fair exhibits are to show up usually in the fall or something. >,<; :cry:
For those that have gotten the new Fearleading Werecat pack, is there any difference between basic Toralei and this Toralei? I know the twins are the same.
Also, look what I found on Ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toralei-Daughter-of-the-Werecat-Monster-High-doll-Toralei-Stripe-/261161536875?_uhb=1&pt=US_Dolls_Bears_Toys&hash=item3cce70cd6b&nma=true&si=%252BlVRsZBlkcHfypyFm9SQhGva4H0%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toralei-Daughter-of-the-Werecat-Monster-High-doll-Toralei-Stripe-/261161536875?_uhb=1&pt=US_Dolls_Bears_Toys&hash=item3cce70cd6b&nma=true&si=%252BlVRsZBlkcHfypyFm9SQhGva4H0%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557)
I don't understand this Ebay listing you posted, Sprinkles. It's making my head hurt. I wonder if this is real or fake :huh:Someone's taken Toralei, put her in her fashion pack, stuck her back in her box, and then returned her to the store, which has put her back on the shelf. She's then been purchased by a clueless person, who is now now selling her on ebay. Looks like someone has pointed this out to that person, judging by the description.

Thank you for explaining Bow Tie. I knew that the doll was obviously tampered with by the seller but I couldn't figure out how they managed to get the back like that. Now I see the spiderwebs XD I'm surprised it sold for so much even after the seller's obvious description.
ha, highly possible since I have four of them x.X Maybe I should sell her and replace her with a different face XDSell her to meeeeeee!! Hehe, did I just say that out loud? So no Wydowna making an appearance yet:(. I am Michelle's sad face.
I am so excited about the new dolls and especially the new outfits coming out this year. So much for slowing down my collection.
I'm confused... why are they named '1600 and Pregnant' other than a tribute to the show? Especially since the dolls aren't re-shaped to be pregnant, they have little Cabbage Patch Kid babies. I'd find a re-shaped MH dolls to be a little freaky, considering that all her clothes would have to be specially commissioned, LOL! :-p
Yes yes yes yes yes! Tarta and Tatra from MKR! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 The outfits are just gorgeous!
Yes yes yes yes yes! Tarta and Tatra from MKR! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 The outfits are just gorgeous!
We just need some extra Cleos + Neferas to make it happen! :shifty:
I'm glad someone knew what I had in mind :lol:
Yeah Gigi is pretty with her lighter pink skin (at least from what we can see) but I guess I too would prefer a darker shade!
Oh and PS Bow Tie: did you get the ponies at TJ Maxx you wanted?
I would love another Nefera release :( or other tall ladies!~
Gigi is the same height as the main ghouls right? She looks taller, but that's probably just hope.

I was told by the 3 TRU's in my area that they are all sold out of the 3 packs and won't get any in until late feb/early marNoooooo :(

I could be wrong, but I remember hearing Gigi is Nefera's height and Twyla is Howleen's.

Can anyone show me pics of the Wave 1 rereleases? I heard they were seen in certain places, but I don't really know what I am looking for/at. Thanks.
So they aren't rereleasing Ghoulia? A friend of mine is going to be unhappy about that. :ack: She's been wanting one for quite a while now.

Re-releases means more distributions of ones people missed out one, which means more are gonna pop up in the near future > the value of originals are gonna go down, > scalpers won't be making much money as they were before, > they'll (hopefully) stop with MH and move onto the next big thing! Hopefully...
Awesome, Okie.I'll do it, if you don't want the shoes.
Is anyone interested in splitting the Blob/Ice pack with me? I'm only after Ms. Ice.

This is exciting but when is someone going to post pix or video?!
Nessa, in the quote it says they weren't allowed to take pictures so I doubt videos were allowed either :huh: I kinda hope someone took some pictures to share though, like how people take videos at concerts.
a;lksj;alkjd *explodes* Venus is amazing, Abbey's adorable and Clawdeen is gorg! :heart: :heart: :heart:
SO MUCH NEED :drunk:
Grabby claws, grabby vines and fangs!!a;lksj;alkjd *explodes* Venus is amazing, Abbey's adorable and Clawdeen is gorg! :heart: :heart: :heart:
SO MUCH NEED :drunk:
SO MANY GRABBY HANDS!!!!!!
The Venus is my favorite; her eyes are so beautiful and I love her tattered top. I think this trumps her other two releases so far.
Clawdeen looks weeeeird to me with those eyed and that open-fanged smile which I dislike... I also wasn't a fan of those boots on wave 2 Clawdeen and I'm not a huge fan of them now. She's a real pass for me.
Abbey looks so adorable! She looks like she popped out of Woodstock or something. <3

Er...everyone knows I'ma Clawdeen fanatic but wtf did they do to her? Why does she look like she could star in some off the wall quirky 60's sci-fi show? What genre of music is she supposed to be again? *will bring her home, but will hide her in the back with GR* >.>
Abbey: Cute outfit, and I love the hair. But I fail to see Himalayan anything here. Unlike Jin and Skelita, I don't think they've ever really portrayed much of her heritage as it ties into real life. Talking about snowman building contests and storing your cheese with your clothes doesn't count.Wow, I Sooooo just realized that. She's one of the "Foreign" girls, yet nothing screamed foreign for her in a while, just memerable quotes stated.
Venus: I adore her makeup. The outfit is really cute, but it seems more of a fashion pack than a themed outfit. And it doesn't seem very punk or plant-like. Another nitpick- why does she have the same hair? Yes, it's pretty cutting-edge for playline, but it's virtually the same as her last two.Totally agree! same hair style, but instead of green and pink, it looks like it's gonna be pink and black. I mean, Yay, she she's gotten a hairstyle that's never been done in the doll world, but seeing how the flocking can wash out and easily get ruined, repeating it doesn't seem to help. >,< a little OT, but I wouldn't even consider her Swimline release a "new" release, same exact faceup, shorter hair by a tidbit, only thing new is the outfit.
I did notice that Mattel has a hard time understanding what hip hop is actually supposed to be... (See DC Howleen).lol remember when Mattel tried to do hip hop dolls and released that doll line: "Flavas" XD Didn't last a year and they got discontinued to the ground HARD with controversy.
She's secretly traveling with the Doctor >.>

I shudder to think but honestly, I've been netflixing classic Who and one of the 60s companions had this horrible monstrousity of a glittery (and even though it was b&w I'm going to assume it was gold) catsuit. It needed THOSE BOOTS to finish it off. Srsly.

Talking about snowman building contests and storing your cheese with your clothes doesn't count.Seriously. She's really more like a Russian yeti rather than a Himalayan one, what with her accent and the fur-lined ensemble. And now she's like a Russian hippie. I like her boots though.

Another nitpick- why does she have the same hair? Yes, it's pretty cutting-edge for playline, but it's virtually the same as her last two.I agree. Give us a Venus with a proper mohawk! Or just give us a fashion pack.
Clawdeen: My least fave. I think the pantsuit is cute, but not very detailed. I don't mind re-used shoes (well, boots), but the overall look is pretty bland. Love the hair, but the open mouth and smaller eyes aren't doing it for me.Definitely not liking this one. I prefer the original version of her boots, and yeah, I'm getting more of a disco vibe than r&b.
Clawdeen looks like wonder wolf part 2!

Seriously not impressed with the music festival line
I am hoping to find Heath when he comes out. I don't have any boys. Looked for Deuce but cannot find him anywhere that carries Scaris. It really is a shame they don't make more of the boys.
But I am surprised people don't like the 13 Wishes Clawdeen doll. I have seen many negative opinions on her. I think she's really pretty.
No offense to anyone who loves MF Venus, but a friend and I just took 10 minutes to create a MF Venus that would be more to our liking (you are allowed to find her butt-ugly, lol) :)

I'm gonna ignore the actual descriptions since IMO the dolls look more like:
Clawdeen - disco
Venus - electronica(?)
Abbey - New Age (Does not look Himalayan AT ALL)
I'm hoping MF dolls are a budget line, since they certainly look it, and I'll be glad to see smaller-box doll w/ earrings again.
Meh to the MF stuff ... I don't think Venus is pink/black hair though. I think that's lighting. I swear I can see a hint of green when I zoom in on my phone. Her outfit is cute enough, but not very plant. :( oh well.Yeah, just looked at a bigger pic, it's the lighting. >,>; I saw a small, tiny green highlight. There goes my idea of pink/black.
I'm glad that each doll at least has found someone here to live her though :)

So what's the deal with only one Nefera? Not that I'm complaining because my one Nef is enough, but still, it seems a bit unbalanced seeing as we have three Howleens now.
Okay, liking Twyla -much- more now http://toyfair13.asmzine.com/gallery/mattel/monster-high/slides/DSC07055.html

Oh my gosh, the 13 Wishes Lagoona in that picture is hilarious-looking. And perhaps pregnant.
I found the new swim line dolls today at Kmart. I only bought Venus and Draculara, Lagoona didn't move me:(.
I'm honestly holding out for new characters now. Super bummed about the lack of spiders in the upcoming year.
What kind of monster is Twyla?She's a bogeyman.
The bad seams are why I haven't bought any swimline dolls yet. All the ones I've seen....granted only one store has them here yet.....but they've all had bad leg seams. :cry:

And someone might have already answered this but is Twyla small like Howleen? Because between the two Gigi looks larger.
I just came home from Kmart with new Swimsuit Venus! :biggrin:
Just a heads up for everyone to start checking. No luck on the roller maze 2 pack with Clawdeen. They put out another whole case with Ghoulia instead. :(
My guess is budget too. I wouldn't pay $20 for these. $13 (give or take a dollar depending on the store) is about right.
Is anyone else having a problem with bad seams on the legs of the new Swim dolls? One of my Lagoonas and my Venus have a cracked seam on the right knee. I was so excited to open them until I noticed the cracks. :cry: Now I have to wait and find new ones before I can open and display them.

That's hilarious; the budget dolls *are* $20 here. God, I hate how expensive everything is in Canada, especially since I'm shopping with American funds.
Also, they seem to have stopped stocking sig Venus here for some reason. I only ever saw a couple of her and now there aren't any at all, even though more Robeccas seem to keep popping up. I wish I'd grabbed one of her when I had the chance; I love her so much.
Dwaahhh!!!
MH Ragdoll plushies 2.0?!?![/center]
I just noticed that all of the MF dolls have a VIP badge type-thing. I wonder what the story behind them are?
http://toyfair13.asmzine.com/gallery/mattel/monster-high/index.html HQ pics of the other 3 Picture Day dollsAwesome, thanks! Looks like Operetta's mole has gone the way of Lagoona's freckles. The ghouls must be going heavy on the foundation for photo day xD

Ok, nope, I WANT YOUR DESIGN! She looks fabulous like that OMG!
Ahh justkitter name change!! Grats! :hug:
I would also like to see another Nefera sized doll. I wish Howleen and Clawdeen had another sister. I want a larger werewolf ghoul and I would call her Clawdia.

I just got Catrine and I want to wash that yucky hard stuff out of her hair, but I'm afraid of ruining her hairstyle. Do her curls still hold without the gel stuff?I rinsed Catrine's hair in very hot water 2 times and she still has a bunch of curl.

Oh my gosh, the 13 Wishes Lagoona in that picture is hilarious-looking. And perhaps pregnant.
Perhaps she's carrying Gil's child? It would definitely explain why her face seems a bit, er, puffy! I would have expected this of Toralei, but certainly not Lagoona!
What kind of monster is Twyla?
Also I'm not sure if it was posted before, but Gigi has a scorpion theme going on her she has a tatoo on her chest and some shell things in her arms and legs,. WOW this will explain the hairstyle as well.
See the pic http://toyfair13.asmzine.com/gallery/mattel/monster-high/slides/DSC07065.html
Hold up--Clawdeen is supposed to be hip hop?! I thought it was disco. That is terrible.
Headband, leg warmers, wrist bands and you're set! XD
lol shoot, if that's the case, they should've just saved this release to add as a case revision for the Dance Class dolls! Give this release like some kind of MC Hammer outfit or something! XD
Am I the only person who thinks that Lagoona is fugly? She looks like....I dunno....her colors are too bright.
But I am really looking forward to Twyla the most. And even though I don't tend to buy reissues, I will be going after the 13 Wishes dolls. They look different enough from the originals, like they are new characters (except for Clawdeen which is still worth getting anyways because she's so darned pretty).
Can you imagine if they made a dance/music line with ghouls dressed like artists from the 80/90s'?? XD
Clawd as MC Hammer/Stevie Wonder/Lionel Richie/Wayne Brady
Jackson as Phil Collins maybe?? Maybe Jackson Brown? Huey Louis and the News??
Deuce as Elton John with his sunglasses
Lagoona as Jewel
Spectra as Sarina Paris
Wow my 90's and 80's mind is diminishing I don't remember anymore at the top of my head, but I know there are more!! >,<;

I have to admit, I would prefer plastic hair. Translucent.
I'm not sure if I like him yet, the pic doesn't show enough of him. His outfit looks boring (I was hoping they would come up with something new) and he appears to have a normal "guy mold" for a body, which would make him slightly bigger than Abbey, which would kind of piss me off.
His shortness compared to tall amazon Abbey is what is so endearing about him (to me). If I had him I'd probably chop off his legs and make him worthless XD
It looks like the GNO line is going to be a slim box line..... or is that just me seeing things?

They look deluxe to me. Slim line boxes tend to haver very careful poses so that they fit and these girls are reaching out a bit. Also, I see a journal in Rochelle's box.

Pretty sure you're correct. The dance lines tend to be a more deluxe line (although not as much as say, 1600 or GR). The outfits are fairly detailed, and they come with purses and an extra accessory. I anticipate these going for about what DDG went for.
Is Heath for sure going to be released in a two pack, or is that a rumor going around??
Is it going to be a store exclusive if so??
Heath will be nice addition, but what is up with Lagoona's face?! I will most likely be buying Heath separate, or I'll just have to sell Abbey.I'll buy her off of you! I don't collect the boys :blush:

I should say I'm not 100% sure anymore now that some people have pointed out the accessories and diary, but the boxes look like budget line boxes. To me, the boxes look too small to be deluxe dolls. They look slightly bigger than budget line boxes, but aren't nearly as big as the deluxe/basic boxes.

If I remember correctly, the DDG boxes were a bit larger than the second wave of DotD (the originals had bigger boxes, similar to the "trapper keeper" style boxes the signatures originally had). But regardless, the dance lines are usually considered "deluxe" compared to the wide-release basic lines, like GB and SS. I'll be happy to be wrong if it means GNO goes for $12-$15 though! :)
I'm actually excited that Heath comes in his webisode outfit. This means that when we get his signature doll, we'll get a whole new look! I'm just sad none of the other boys so far have come with their letterman jackets! I also feel that the Classroom dolls tie in more with the webisodes than the other lines do; Lagoona came with that gargoyle egg and the three-eyed frog, which were both from webisodes.

If there's going to be a Sig version of him at all. We can't be sure if Mattel will go the Jackson Jekyll route with all boy dolls. After all we're still waiting for a Signature Gil :/
I'd advise everyone to buy this Heath and not wait for a Sig release. I will forever regret not buying SS Gil...

Oh, I'll definitely be getting both of these, regardless. I'm a completist, so not getting them in hopes of a signature release would leave a gap in my collection! However, I still think we'll get a signature of Gil; the question is when! We had to wait a long time after GB to get a signature Jackson. Personally, I think signatures should be released first, but that's not how Mattel works :P We do get at least one signature guy a year, so there's still hope for a Gil!
I didn't notice this at first glance the other day, but it looks like there's new-styled plushies on the horizon:

That 2-pack Cleo has purple in her bangs in the artwork... maybe the doll has them?
But eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Heath! Maybe not so much the face mould, but eeeee! Those double packs look fun. Not too sure about the GNO dolls, I think I like Spectra but have reserved judgement for the most part.
Didn't picture day Abbey have dark purple lips? Hmm. I really can't recallYou're thinking of I <3 Fashion Abbey who has either purple or dark blue lips, which I can't remember.

I also wish they'd stick to signature versions to be released first, but that's totally how they hook a lot of us who try and stick to one of each character. :) Signature Jackson was heaps better than his Gloom Beach version, so I'm really keeping my fingers crossed for a signature Gil. So many fans missed out on him and it's absolutely crazy what people are having to pay to track down a budget-line doll. At this point, he'd fly off the shelves.
I'd also accept Invisi Billy if we only see one signature boy this year.
Does anyone know of a good free program to make gifs? I want to make a ton of MH gifs!http://www.online-image-editor.com/
What you don't realize is that Invisi Billy is already out. It's just that his box is also invisible. Just feel around on any empty looking spots on the shelves ;)

It looks like I was completely wrong. The GNO dolls are deluxe. Sorry for leading people on. :cry: The boxes looked like budget boxes.
The person on tumblr who snapped those pics has confirmed there's a 2.0 DT Lagoona, as well as Spectra and Robecca :yippee:Aaaaaa. NEED PICCCS. Come on people get into a little trouble.. FOR THE GOOD OF THE COMMUNITY /bricked.

I don't know why they keep giving Abbey the same makeup. She keeps on getting pink lips. I want something different! Like a purple or something! :(
I was wondering the same thing. Maybe MH fans have more respect in regards to the no pics rule than pony fans..? I dunno. I SAY BRING ON THE DISRESPECT AND UP THE HYPE. But that might be because I'm an impatient little brat >_>;. I mainly wanna see DT 2.0 Lagoona as it might be a nice sub for the original, which my fiance wants.

I am curious I just checked TRU online and I noticed they have a lot of the older sig. Dolls(Holt, Clawdeen,ect.) reduced from $26 to $19. Has anyone actually seen them in the stores?
What kind of monster is Twyla?
Also I'm not sure if it was posted before, but Gigi has a scorpion theme going on her she has a tatoo on her chest and some shell things in her arms and legs,. WOW this will explain the hairstyle as well.
See the pic http://toyfair13.asmzine.com/gallery/mattel/monster-high/slides/DSC07065.html
The shell things are Scorpians, she has Scorps on her pants too and her little pet is a Scorpian! :)

So much news!
Thanks for posting all the pictures/updates everyone. :heart:
Lagoona's hair is so pretty, she's a must just because she's goona!
Oh and Heath, yay! I think he looks pretty neat. I am also going to grab that Cleo Ghoulia 2 pack. They both look extra cute.I am curious I just checked TRU online and I noticed they have a lot of the older sig. Dolls(Holt, Clawdeen,ect.) reduced from $26 to $19.

I saw nothing at TRU last night....but that would be wonderful if they started selling them again and at that price :lovey:
Molded plastic, according to the person who ninjaed the photos for us.
Wait...an I <3 Fashion Cleo?! Awww yeah. Even though I don't own any Cleos yet, she is fast becoming one fo my fave dolls. Next time I get paid I am searching out her school's out version and then PD.

I'm sorry :blush: Did I miss something? I get all my info from right here *points at the MH Discussion thread* and I don't remember an I <3 Fashion Cleo. Did you see that somewhere else? I'd love an extension to the I <3 Fashion line (I know about the shoe line, but I'm not too crazy about that idea, yet. Need to see pics first.) Anyway, typo?

The same person who leaked the photos of the Classroom 2-packs had a little blurb up on her tumblr earlier, confirming a wave 3 for Dead Tired (with Lagoona, Spectra, and Robecca) and the "Shoe Set" that had previously been circulating around the rumor mill that may be similar to the I <3 Fashion line. It appears as though the comment has since been deleted though.
I had originally heard that the set would include Draculaura and Clawdeen, but she had it listed as Draculaura and Cleo, so it'll be interesting to see what comes of it.

I feel like the original blurb I heard about the line was for Clawdeen and Lala as well. Although I'd FAR prefer Cleo and Clawdeen lol. Both of them have more edgy makeup palette and design. Not to mention, I am so sick of Draculaura. I liked her initially, but she's just tired now. And while her original looks were very loli and interesting, a lot of her stuff is either a teensy mini (in black and pink, natch) or poofy and shiny. She's become the playline Barbie of MH!
I'd love it if they continued releasing dolls similar to I <3 Fashion, and more deluxe fashion packs. Oooh, and shoe/accessory packs! Or blind bag shoes.... *imagines jupi crazily rushing through stores, shoving whole boxes of blind bag shoes in her cart*
I would prefer Cleo and Lagoona because I'm selfish. They are my two favorite characters after all.
If they did blind bag shoes or just shoe/accessory packs, I will just die! I need them!!!

I love Lagoona too, and I'd love to see her get a I <3 Fashion doll of some sort. My only hesitation would be how hard it seems for the designers to give her cute outfits. Her signature, 2.0 and Classroom were awesome (well, minus the second outfit in Classroom), but so frequently, they seem struggle with finding her "look". Of course, it could be their chance to redeem themselves too!

I've liked all her outfits, but there are definitely a few or so that have room for improvement. I would hope that an I <3 Fashion doll/accessory pack of some sort would help redeem themselves. I'm so confused as to what they want her to look like or what kind of signature style to give her. It's just messy. D:

That's how I feel too. She was the original "sporty" ghoul, and then they started mixing in a little boho, and suddenly you have a mess like PD. I feel they did the whole sporty/hippie mix better with Abbey, to be honest. It probably helps that boots are infinitely cooler than platform flip-flops :P But I love my 'goona; she was the one that made me take the plunge into MH. And her little hoodie from the signature line is probably one of my favorite individual pieces ever.

I'm pretty hard-pressed to find a Lagoona outfit I don't like (I even think that aqua yoga suit from her fashion pack is cute). Her Sweet 1600 look was really pretty though... wish they'd given her a doll :c

Just curious, how do you guys feel about the two new playsets? I'm kind of iffy on Spectra's bed, but I really like Lagoona's shower set!The shower and "vanity" (sink) are SOOO CUTE! I love the use of the coral red, dark blue, and black - totally unexpected colours, but they look amazing!
I just have to sy in my months of collecting... I have never seen a doll reduced in price that hasn't been in conjunction with a store sale... That being said... My local Walmart has dropped the price of their DC and scaris basic dolls to $10.00!! And I has no money! Dang it!! Now back to your rgularly schedule discussion... :biggrin:
Just stepping in to say that Draculaura is still my favourite character. Yes, I biased because I love pink, and vampires, but I still love her.
Her problem is she's far too often the 'bonus doll' or in a budget line, and all of her recent outfits have been lacklustre. Her design has so much goth-loli potential, but they keep putting her in cheaper, lazy fashions. Roadster? So lame. Coffin bean? So cheap. Scaris? Unispired.
I mean, I'd like to see her in some more deluxe lines so they can really go nuts with her clothes and make them over-the-top and frou-frouy and stuff, but at the same time there are other characters who deserve those places. Like Lagoona, who is really shafted, poor girl.
And yes for horned monsters! But I know there'd be a parental freakout at anything slightly devilish or demonic.

Yup :( I'm not holding my breath because I probably would die, but oh how I dream!
Also, Mattel customer service is crazy awesome.

I'm hoping they go there soon- I mean they are MONSTERS for crying out loud- I think that it is production cost more than anything else.
Holy crap! Mind blowing moment!!
I complained to Mattel about Swimline Venus's cracked knee seam, (Very nice customer service, my first time contacting them) they sent me another, and OH MY GAWD!!! SHE HAS A DIFFERENT FACEUP!!! So for all that I've said before about her faceup being the same, I take it back, she has pink lips with an olive eye shadow look going on!! OMG!!
Was toodling around on Ebay and saw *two* sellers had pre-orders for Headless Headmistress; one had the vague date of her being out at the end of the month the other said they would have the orders out by March 9th or your money would be refunded. Both want over $100 :P
So it looks like Mattel was sneaky sneaky with this one, if it is true!

Please LOOK AND READ...This item is a pre-sale and will ship AROUND MARCH 09 2013 or money back guarenteed........SOLD PRE-SALES IN THE PAST, CHECK MY FEEDBACKS.....I ALWAYS COME THREW....IM ONLY ORDERING A FEW OF THESE....GET WHILE THEY LAST.....

I have not heard of ANYONE having Wydowna- she wasn't at Toyfair and there hasn't been so much as a whisper about her-
Also- this lady can't even spell- how would she have these dolls before anyone on this earth?QuotePlease LOOK AND READ...This item is a pre-sale and will ship AROUND MARCH 09 2013 or money back guarenteed........SOLD PRE-SALES IN THE PAST, CHECK MY FEEDBACKS.....I ALWAYS COME THREW....IM ONLY ORDERING A FEW OF THESE....GET WHILE THEY LAST.....
Also- I looked through her feedback and there are a number of items that she didn't come "threw" on- and I don't see any pre-release doll feedback- is it possible she has some sort of industry tie? Doesn't that seem unlikely???
I think if this was legit- there would be pre-sales popping up all over the place.
Looked even closer at her feedback (yes, I want a Wydowna BAD) and it appears that a LOT of her auctions- including ones that she got positive feedback for- the item never arrived and she issued refunds. Sounds pretty unreliable to me.
Thats why I refuse to preorder unless its through someone reputable... or someone I know... I bought a motorcycle and was told that they would ship it to my house... yea right 3 grand taken from me... never saw it again...
On a different note... I noticed that the Holt Hyde I own isnt one of the "wave 1" releases... but a possible re-release as it has the clear side... versus the white and orange box... So I am debating about opening him... Should I?? I plan on buying a MIB original one to replace it... Lol

He was released in two different boxes, just like Ghoulia. The original boxes they were in were the coffin boxes and when SO came out, they were released in the new boxes with the SO dolls. If you are going to get the Wave 1 box to replace it, I would open it, but only after you get it. :)

That's so cool! I don't have DT Cleo so I didn't know that, but that's really awesome! Now I kind of want her. :lol:
DT Cleo's nightlight glows in the dark!
Why wasn't I told about this?? I admit, I was freakin out a little what the heck it was. The weirdest part is, it isn't a steady glow, it fades in and out.
Am I the last person to know about this or the first??
Weird little random story. I'm trying to sleep (and failing miserably) and I notice a weird little winky glowy light coming from the top of one of my shelves. At first I thought it just those weird eye floaty things you sometimes get in the dark. Then I thought maybe it was a light through the crack in my curtain except, as I watched, I realized it wasn't steady, it would fade in and out. I'm thinking 'wtf is going on here??' I'd also completely forgotten I'd recently reorganized that shelf and thought my werewolves were still up there so I turned on my light.

I was disappointed with the lack of information and pictures. Last year we got a ton of info. I'm hoping we'll get some articles and pictures up over the next few days.Yeah really, what gives?
I need to grab some dolls and start brushing their hair. I love brushing their hair. :shocked:

I hope you're all able to add a little romance to your day in some way.
Valentine's Day was yesterday for us here in New Zealand. I bought my wife some roses and a DVD, which I had hoped we could watch last night, but the baby decided to have a late afternoon nap, which meant she didn't go to sleep for the night till after 10pm. My wife enjoyed the musical card I got for her, though (it plays "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet").
I didn't know Cleo's nightlight glows in the dark either :|
Well, I don't know about you all, but now that the Toy Fair is over, I'm disappointed with what was announced. I wish there were pictures of the stuff that wasn't leaked and some information about it, possibly release dates? :huh:
Have a brag for today. Have to tell because it made me so happy. My two best friends came over this morning. My love life lately has been pretty awful so they wanted to be my date. They brought me a bouquet of daisies, a red teddy bear, and this cute pony figure thing for Valentines Day. We then went browsing around at Target. And what did I spy on the shelf?!! A Scaris Deuce!!! I grabbed him but my friends insisted on buying him for me. We then went back to my house where they insisted on ordering pizza for me. I've been extremely spoiled today and I am glad I have such awesome friends.

It probably would have been more exciting if we hadn't already seen the 13 Wishes stuff. They didn't actually show that much last year; just the four new signatures and RM. But last year, we hadn't seen any of the those. We figured that it would be the three girls at least, since their trademarks had been bouncing around. But it was exciting, because we had no idea what they would look like.
MH is at the point where it doesn't need Toy Fair pics to hype it. It's second only to Barbie (and it's really more of a sister franchise, since both are owned by the same company). We do have SDCC coming up, and they also like to throw out a few surprises that don't get shown at either place.
Happy Valentines Day! i love your pix!
Cleo looks so alluring there. Great photo!Thank you both!

Sorry for this being off-topic, but I'm wondering if that LOVE symbol is a Philadelphia thing? I know you used to be in Philly. I came here and Love Park seems to be such a big deal, and I don't quite get it :'D

Does anyone know when wave 2 PD will be released? Because I have cravings for them already XD
Where is everyone finding replacement parts on the Mattel site? When I go to replacement parts all I see are male MH stands and some train tracks. So yall musta found something else.
Does anyone know when wave 2 PD will be released? Because I have cravings for them already XD
They also have a new little write up for the Music Festival dolls. The details are different from the original manufacturer description that the online retailers were given. Clawdeen is now listed as "Disco", instead of "R&B", and Abbey is "Music of the 60's" instead of "Himalayan Heritage." I'd say those descriptions are much more suited to their designs. :) They're also being confirmed as thin-boxed/budget dolls.

That does make more sense given their looks. When I first saw them I forgot all about what the leaked description had said about what music genres they were supposed to be representing. When I first saw Abbey my only thought was "hippie?" XD

Mattel Brands Media has them listed for July. When they've projected release dates for other lines in the past, they can sometimes be up to two months late in their predictions, so it could always be a little earlier.

I just ordered replacement arms for Howleen and shipping cost more than the parts!!! Ugh:(

I just want an extra set of fins for my Wave 1 Lagoona that doesn't have 'em and I don't want to pay $7.95 for them because shipping is $4.95. :\Sister, I hear you! I just ordered replacement arms for Howleen and shipping cost more than the parts!!! Ugh:(
I have an extra pair of fins you can have for free, Bow Tie! Just PM me your address. A gift from one Lagoona nut to another :heart:
DON'T get them! They sent me two right leg fins :(
No problems, I keep a few sets of extra parts around just for such occasions. Allow me to assure you that there are precisely 1x left fin and 1x right fin xDI have an extra pair of fins you can have for free, Bow Tie! Just PM me your address. A gift from one Lagoona nut to another :heart:
Are you serious!? :cry: You sure you don't need them? You are so super sweet! :cry: :heart:

I was really hoping to find a DT Cleo at Kmart, but it looks like she's not available. I've seen some of the first wave of DT dolls at Kmart before and I was hoping I could catch a break and find her, but it looks like I'm not going to get lucky. I'm really hoping to get one of each Cleo. The only ones I need are DT, Fearleading, GB and PD. I had GB, but I sold her to help pay off my credit card.I just found a DT Cleo at a Walgreens and my walmarts have some of the PD ones left as well. So just keep an eye open and you'll probably find one.
Also, I saw a girl at work today with a MH tattoo on her face and she had a Claire's bag that had a Scaris doll in it. I'm guessing it was the Draculaura that was sitting all alone on the shelf by herself for quite a while. :lol:

I have no trouble finding PD Cleo. I've just been holding off on getting her. Every week I say, "Oh. I'll just get her after I get my next paycheck." XD I think I'll finally get her tomorrow.
You found DT Cleo!? You're so lucky! I'm crossing my fingers I can find her in the middle of nowhere since that's where my boyfriend lives. :lol: I'm going out with him for a late Valentine's Day date since I had to work that night. I may have to check Shopko. It's where I found 6 each of Wave 1 Frankie and Draculaura last winter/spring.
Also, Does anyone have a Scaris Rochelle and Draculaura's new fashion pack? I'm debating on whether I want to buy Draculaura's new fashion pack and put it on Scaris Rochelle. I would love to see how it looks on her. :)

No problem... It comes with a cute little pink hat thing... But I forgot it :blush:
As far as finding them... I know most targets have them in stock.. The only one I havent found is the Ghoulia DFP... Which I want... :huh:
Would someone take a picture of both RM Abbeys for me (single vs. double-packed) so I can see the hair difference? Pretty please? :bateyes:I don't have both of them to take pics but have seen them in person. So to explain if you have any of the other Abbey's the 2 pack has hair like that (tinsel, frosty looking) but the new single release has "normal" hair like frankie or draculaura's reg hair. It's quite a difference so I'm thinking you're probably going to want both. :lol:
If it's really a pronounced difference like that then I have to have both, too. :|
Nope! I didn't wash her hair, just brushed it with a comb. Her hair wasn't too crunchy or gross out of the box.
Found 4 of the deluxe fashion packs last night at my WalMart. Got all of them :) I felt slightly bad, but I know if I didn't get them all then, they would be gone when I went back. Such awesome clothes too! All my girls are going to be freaky fabulous by the end of the day.
So, as much as I like the thought of tensil-less abbey, can anyone still seeing the two pack pic me one up? Abbey wouldn't be right without her tensil XD

What states have the deluxe FP been found in at a Walmart or Target? Ours don't even have a spot for them and Target.com only has them listed as sold in stores! None of the surrounding stores have them either here or in Minneapolis, MN. How much are they at Walmart/Target? Anyone willing to pick me up all of them but Operetta's and ship decarded to minimize cost? I know if I order from Amazon (if they ever get back to the low price) that it will cost me at least $40 for those 3! Target has them listed at $7.99 online.
Ugh I checked the kmart near me, of course they don't have the RM 2 pack.. I guess that's good though since I shouldn't really be spending money on it lol
So, as much as I like the thought of tensil-less abbey, can anyone still seeing the two pack pic me one up? Abbey wouldn't be right without her tensil XD
Do you have the one without tinsel? If you do I'll gladly trade you!
Holy Mother of Gorgon!! Did anyone catch this auction?? *faints*

Just remembered something from awhile back!
Luvly: You promised us pictures of your Swim Venus variant! I'm super curious:)
Apparently that's how swim Venus is meant to look but for some reason the first batch that got released used the signature Venus face-up.

Monster High Insider has an image of what LuvlyMelody described finding with her doll:
http://mhinsider.tumblr.com/image/43165292606
I can't wait to see more images of her this way, I love the colors. :)
It's very easy to spot the difference under the shades. You can easily spot the bright pink. I checked when I was at Kohls and it wasn't difficult at all. :)
I also found the mummy/gorgon pack at a Kmart! I picked it up. I don't usually buy CaMs, but these are gorgeous!!! :)

I thought about that, but couldn't anyone put a Sig Venus in a Swim swimsuit, and claim it is a "mis-printed" doll? Is their a way to prove it? I'm not sure you could make money on this one......

I'm just holding out for dance Venus with that lovely pink hair!
Me too!! Love that one!!
Can someone help me with a small price check? I found LaLa's newspaper fashion. What's it worth with and without shoes? Thanks.
Maniah, Venus would look stunning in an orchid based dress *__*
While we're at requesting things from Mattel... OMG PLEASE MAKE A TOY OUT OF THOSE HELLHOUNDS! It's not normal how much I love how they look:

I paid $10.50 for mine without shoes... And the are going for another $10-$12 on eBay...
Keelee: Just trust me. You need both. :lol: Our collecting styles are very similar. You're gonna want to have both....
So, this is interesting. On top of Swim Venus having a new face, people are also reporting finding newer versions of Ghouls Alive Frankie making their way out as well. Her face is made from a more solid plastic now and she looks a lot softer than her initial release, the colors are more muted:
http://www.monsterhighdolls.com/forum/topics/new-different-looking-ghouls-alive-frankie-stein-found
Not judging! I would love to grab a "mis-print" for $12 now and see it skyrocket later!Now I'm wondering myself. LOL I bought all 3 for another member here and then she found them herself. I've posted a sale thread but now I might want to keep her for myself. :P I really shouldn't because I didn't truely have the money to buy them in the first place but thought I'd be getting reimbursed. Now though hmmmm........ :lol:
Just having one of the few early releases would be cool, but I was thinking how could you prove to people you have an authentic doll.
Mandy seems to have found my answer though!
I'm truly tempted now :lol:

I'm not sure how I missed hellhounds!!! But since I collect these, I will HAVE to have them if they make them....
Went out hunting today. I bought Jinafine:) I had 4 to pick through and I feel really good about the one I grabbed. It's nice to able to compare a few dolls, when you aren't sure about the doll you are buying :P I'm not fond of her, but the one I picked is pretty so I'm happy. They also had 2 Skelitas but neither one seemed like the "right" one. Oh well.Grats on finding all those in one day! :P Still wish the new CAM Starters would show up here, still no sign of them. >,> Then again, I'm still broke so it's best for them to not show up just yet. XD
I also found both new CAM Starters (FINALLY!) but I couldn't bring myself to buy the Ice/Blob set because something Tuney pointed out. The Ice girl's lips are kinda faint and you can see her blue face color coming through. I love the color of her lips and would like to find a set with a more opaque look. I did get the Mummy/Gorgon to tide me over. :squee:
I couldn't find Catrine though:( Nor could I find the Swim girls:( I'd like to get my hands on the Venus variant, just cuz. I have no real reason. I bet by the time my area (which REALLY takes it's time with releases!) gets the Swim dolls all the error Venus dolls will be gone:( I guess that's what's best for my wallet >_<
I have yet to hit up my local Walmart... I know there were 4 catrines at the Walmart by my moms house last I check... But they all had wacky hair... they all had the right side curl that looked like someone had pulled on it, so it was fly-away ish...
Post Merge: February 17, 2013, 04:02:54 PM
The hood wont fit over his head... but there should be a velcro closing on the back that you can open and then pull it off...

There isn't Velcro on the actual hood and it doesn't seem big enough to fit over his head. I don't want to damage any of his snakes. Just like the hood on Ghoulia's dress doesn't fit over the head. It also doesn't have Velcro on the hood.
Ok, the time has come. Hanna is downsizing her collection. If you're looking for anything rare or boys, keep an eye out for my sales thread coming soon!

Just got this message from Mattel Australia: "There are currently no plans to range the Heath and Abbey 2 pack in NZ. We can confirm, that there are 4 boys available this year (Clawd, Gil, Deuce & Holt) in various packs and configurations. We unfortunately can’t tell you when they are coming out, so you’ll have to keep your eyes out in store for them! The reason for this is a lot of the new product coming out is characters we haven’t yet revealed in the webisode content (www.monsterhigh.com), so all this is very hush-hush."
I'm guessing Deuce will be Scaris Deuce. I'm hoping Gil, Clawd and Holt will be new releases, with new outfits, and not just rereleases. I want a Holt with articulated wrists. He's the last of my boys to still be without them now.
I wonder if that last bit is referring to the new 13 Wishes characters or some other characters that haven't come on the radar yet.
We're also getting Catrine and the CAM packs at some point. A big year for NZ collectors! Woohoo!
That's really interesting! I can't wait for new boys!!! Especially if they are super handsome like Deuce and Gil. :heart:
Has anyone tried putting a non-CaM body on the siren? I really want to turn a Lagoona into a mermaid, but I don't want to break off her legs and find out she won't fit into the tail.

I did it. It took some modifying, but worked.
I haven't had any luck with finding older dolls like GB and DT. All the places I've been to that would have the budget dolls either have SS or RM. It's really hard not to spend the extra money to get them, but I know that I really don't want to pay much more than retail for them especially with shipping factored into the prices. :cry:
I found a Killer Style Frankie at Justice in the mall I work at if anyone is still interested in her! I didn't get the chance to grab Draculaura's fashion pack, but I'm hoping this week I'll be able to grab it! I'm just dying for Rochelle to wear it!

I'll need to make sure I have all the pieces to her, and that she doesn't have glue issues, but I have a spare GB Cleo just taking up space in one of my MH odds and ends boxes. If she's complete and doesn't have signs of glue, I'd be happy to sell her to you for a reasonable price. My main concern is the glue, since she came with the five pack Target exclusive; both the Frankie and Draculaura have shown signs of the glue. Her hair is a bit tacky, but unlike the other two, she hasn't had a wash yet, so it might just be the usual gel that I feel.

OMG, I am so ready for more boys!!! My guy collection is up to date, but I love the guys, so any new releases are fantastic! Especially a signature Gil!!!! And a new Holt would be nice too, especially since he's the last to get articulated wrists. Thanks for sharing this info!
Oh dear god, I'm in trouble. I have 65 monsters, just ordered the dragon and cat CAMs tonight, have a Jina being rehaired, AND I just won the most gorgeous gargoyle boy turned vampire custom on ebay. Somebody shoot me; I'm out of control!:freak: I was just thinking the same thing with myself!! I've only been collecting these since the beginning of December and already have 25 with another on the way!

I wonder if that means we'll just be getting more SS Gils as well. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
It's so strange how the boys are so hard to find. I've still never seen DOTD Duece, Gil, and Scaris Duece. And until recently I'd been an avid store lurker.

Wow he's so cool! What's his name?
Craziness, right? I think I saw DOTD Lagoona once and never saw a Ghoulia. And this is when we have 4 Targets and 3 Walmarts around. Pfft. Lol.
Did we have a release date for the 2nd wave of power ghouls? Just curious...
I have a question for you all. I've never washed any of my MH dolls hair. I was thinking about trying this with Catrine. Should I decide not to, however, will the glue/gel ruin the doll's hair over time?
Did we have a release date for the 2nd wave of power ghouls? Just curious...
I've only heard fall.

Fall for MH is usually summer. :lol: Dolls tend to show up 1-2 months earlier than their estimated date. The person who I got this information from is very knowledgeable and I believe he has access to retail information. He posted this on the MHDolls forum. This is what he said:
"Toralei and Frankie probably will not show up for at least 3 months -- that's the typical time for each case in an assortment. I bet we won't see them until fall."
He's usually spot on, but I'm betting we will see them around late spring like May. I remember when Abbey and Spectra were to come out in August 2011 and they ended up showing up in I think June or July.

He's usually spot on, but I'm betting we will see them around late spring like May. I remember when Abbey and Spectra were to come out in August 2011 and they ended up showing up in I think June or July.
:faint: Ugggghhh! I dont wanna wait :P
If I were interested in them, I wouldn't want to wait either, but since this is one of my least favorite lines it doesn't matter to me. :lol: I do wish they will show up sooner for those who want them. :)
I like the whole "super hero" idea... Execution... not so much... but I am a completionist... so I need them... I really like Frankie's boots... lol

Wydowna is the only thing that can save this line! They should introduce her in a 5 pack! Now that would sell like CRAZY!

Just got this message from Mattel Australia: "There are currently no plans to range the Heath and Abbey 2 pack in NZ. We can confirm, that there are 4 boys available this year (Clawd, Gil, Deuce & Holt) in various packs and configurations. We unfortunately can’t tell you when they are coming out, so you’ll have to keep your eyes out in store for them! The reason for this is a lot of the new product coming out is characters we haven’t yet revealed in the webisode content (www.monsterhigh.com), so all this is very hush-hush."
I'm guessing Deuce will be Scaris Deuce. I'm hoping Gil, Clawd and Holt will be new releases, with new outfits, and not just rereleases. I want a Holt with articulated wrists. He's the last of my boys to still be without them now.
I wonder if that last bit is referring to the new 13 Wishes characters or some other characters that haven't come on the radar yet.
We're also getting Catrine and the CAM packs at some point. A big year for NZ collectors! Woohoo!
I almost forgot to tell you all! This weekend I attended an anime convention and on Saturday I saw a teenaged girl dressed up as Classroom Ghoulia! She looked so cute and her outfit was spot on. I wish I had gotten her picture to show everyone... I'm glad that there are starting to be more and more MH cosplayers at all the different conventions representing the fandom :)

Happy Birthday, Sprinkles! :party:

Do you have the link? I would love to see it :)
Catching up again! Been so busy running around lately.
I was thinking if I went to a convention I'd totally go as Toralei because I love orange hair and cats and I have a variety of meows already down. (Thanks to my cat being a vocalist it is easy to copy :cool: )
Who would ya'll dress up as, if you could? and If you have already done so, who were you?
:tort: Happy Birthday Sprinkles!
For Halloween, I'd love to be Clawd. If only I was black! Grrr!
I'd love to go as Deuce, or maybe Gil. But in my current condition, I'd look like I ate the rest of the class.
Thankfully we have plenty of time to think about it!
On another note, has everyone seen Scarah Screams in Florence + The Machine's video Dog Days Are Over? hehe...

Easier to find a good brown stage makeup than to get a good body! I'd love to go as Deuce, or maybe Gil. But in my current condition, I'd look like I ate the rest of the class. Maybe I could go as a more realistic version of the blob girl....

I have seriously thought about going as Spectra. I only need a purple wig. High cheek bones and paleness are already there :lol:

[Back on topic, despite my feeling underwhelmed with Catrine I picked her up when I saw her at Wal-Mart the other day because I am a sucker for the color purple and I could not resist. While I do like her color scheme I can honestly say that I am not all that smitten with her as I am with most of my other dolls.I bought Catrine and am not totally in love. I do like her but am not as happy with her as I thought I'd be. I think it's the ghost like color....she reminds me of Spectra......a spectra cat! :lol:
I sense a possible trade for Skellita in her future...:P
Yeah, I didn't wanna say anything about the new packaging, but the new way they're packing them, yes saves costs and all, but at the same time, they look VERY easy to open through and steal something. >,>; Yay new packing saves us money! But now we gotta be careful when we see them and inspect to make perfect sure it's complete.
As for Venus, I say wait till you find a replacement one in store, then return the smudged lip one, OR Contact mattel about the paint smear.
I grab my Rochelle and the fashion pack and as I'm starting to open it, I notice that part of it was already open. I look to see if anything was missing and her shoes are gone! I am so mad I didn't notice it during my excitement. Now I have to go track down another one and exchange it so I can't play dress up with my Rochelle. :cry:

I'm so sorry you got a pack with no shoes :scared: I'll be more careful...been a bit lazy about double checking everything but I do always look for the shoes because they are so pretty..
Thieves!
I agree with Luvly on the lip smear. If you want to repaint it I guess it doesn't matter but at least with finding another in store you can see if it has the same problem or not!

I'm usually very careful especially since I made sure the PD Cleo had great makeup, but this time I was just too excited to check. I'm so disheartened that people would do such a thing, but I shouldn't be surprised. :cry:
I'm not good with painting so I'll just be patient. I've had good luck so far with finding them so I'll just be more patient. I work in a mall with a Justice and down the street is a Meijer, plus there's another Justice about 5 minutes from my house so it's not like I'm driving all over the state for her. :)

I tend to focus on one thing and miss another like eyes or lips and bald spots.
Yeah it's a bummer and I'm not surprised people do it but then you have this:
"I steal because it's so expensive" well why do you think they keep raising prices on small items! Because of thieves >< so they can take that into account for money they can gain/lose. Oh and many other reasons :P
I haven't seen any around but I've been avoiding doll purchases. :) My last purchase by me was a while ago actually so that's good. I'll try the food store tomorrow heeee and maybe Kmart eventually since they've been found there.
They should be around long enough for you to pick a good one or two!
They just came out so I should definitely be able to find a good one with green make up. I also need to exchange the one I have with pink make up for one with a knee that isn't splitting. I just have so much to deal with. :lol:

Right?! I find myself exchanging dolls recently with better lip paint. Like my Scaris Rochelle from Xmas. Thinking of doing that with my DDG 3 pack.....I love Lala + Abbey but their eyes are a little funny? and Ghoulia's lips are badly smudged. But I know the quality on those packs is meh so I'll see if I can find pretty ones, otherwise I'll keep em and make it work! They are still lovely after all I am just being picky..... :blush:
Maniah, Venus would look stunning in an orchid based dress *__*
While we're at requesting things from Mattel... OMG PLEASE MAKE A TOY OUT OF THOSE HELLHOUNDS! It's not normal how much I love how they look:
visitors can't see pics , please register or login
I'm not sure how I missed hellhounds!!! But since I collect these, I will HAVE to have them if they make them....
I think this webisode isn't on the official MH youtube channel yet. I saw this at the Polish MH channel.
Don't they look just awesome?! I think they will never make them, though. They were just one-shots for the webisode and tbh, I can't see Mattel releaseing something that gruesome looking in a fashion doll toyline :huh:
PS: wait, did you say you collect monstrous dogs? Show me! :biggrin:
Sent you a PM mejohnson :blush:
Who else still needs a Scaris Deuce??
Anyone need Catrine still?
*raises hand* Still haven't seen my snake boy. :huh:
Thankfully we have plenty of time to think about it!

I about died laughing, that's so awesome you noticed this!!!
I dunno... I'd be afraid of someone getting offended and making "blackface" parallels. Honestly though you could cosplay Clawd without using the makeup and still look good!For Halloween, I'd love to be Clawd. If only I was black! Grrr!

I am in love with Swim Lagoona!!! Her make up, her hair, her outfit. I just adore her!!! I'm definitely going to be getting more of her for outfits! She is my second favorite Lagoona. I love SS Lagoona, but Swim Lagoona is just absolutely gorgeous! I would trade a couple of my extra nude Classroom Lagoonas for some nude Swim Lagoonas!I agree! I loved her so much that I broke my ~one doll per character~ rule. She's just such a cutie n_n

There was recently a lot of drama on Tumblr about someone asking whether or not they should use brown makeup to cosplay Clawdeen. Everybody's immediate thought was blackface. So, no, I definitely wouldn't recommend putting on brown makeup to cosplay Clawd...
However, I see nothing wrong with a white person cosplaying a black character. There are lots of black cosplayers who do white anime characters, so why not the reverse? And anyway...

As long as you're having fun, you win! :)
I know who's in it but I'm not allowed to tell :CCC
I can say that fans of characters who aren't out as often as the main three (but still love the original cast) will def be pleased.
Checked with my local TRU, none in the warehouse but 1138 on order, 4 to a case looks to be being received into their north Texas warehouse around March 16th!

If you are going to cosplay as a black character, please do not do what my idiotic ex-friend did. I was so embarrassed when I saw his costume at a convention 3 years ago. My ex-friend is white, but he did a "Black Face" Lewis from Left 4 Dead. He painted his face black and painted his lips bright red and extended the make up past his lips to look like he had big red lips. I am not black, but I was offended. It made me sick to my stomach.I am glad the word friend included the "ex-" modifier in front of it :(

I got my 7 year old into MH and now everything is fangtastic lol. its funny walking though walmart and people look at you funny because your kid keeps calling everything fangtastic :lol:
I feel like of the new three swim girls which seem to be very popular, I feel I am the only one who went nuts over the new Draculaura. I think she's one of the coolest versions of her I've seen. I love the two pigtails and the fact her hair has more pink. I have hannaliten to thank for selling her to me, since I don't think I'd ever have found her at my Kmart.I'm with you! I love this version of Draculaura. I'm selling all three swim dolls and people have already bought the Venus and Lagoona. I'm kind of happy that no one spoke up for Lala. :blush:
I have no luck whatsoever! I was taking off Rochelle's hand to put on the pink bracelet from Draculaura's fashion and when I was putting her hand back into her arm, the peg on Rochelle's hand broke so now part of it is stuck in her arm and I can't put her hand back in her arm. I just want to cry. :cry:Which Rochelle is she?? Do you still have her box?? Maybe you can contact Mattel about her wrist snapping off.

Has anyone ever gone shopping and thought, "That looks like [insert character here]'s [insert line here] outfit!"? Well, for the last couple of weeks or so I've been eyeing this dress at Macy's that reminds me of Lagoona's RM outfit! I was so tempted to buy it, but it's too pricey for me right now.

I hope I didn't sound like I was condoning blackface!!!! I guess I consider the Wolf family to be brown-toned partially from being wolves. The majority of background werewolves are brown or gray; since a lot of werewolves in horror movies are brown-furred, I always thought that was the original inspiration. If I saw someone in brown makeup, with yellow eyes and wolf ears, I'd automatically think "werewolf", not "dated, mocking another race, and in poor taste". Of course, I'm not a POC, so maybe that train of thought is flawed. Apologies if I offended anyone!
Back on the topic of dolls, I am dying for that Scaris two-pack to show up. I'm positive it'll be Lagoona and Cleo. Aside from loving both of them, I also want my Scaris collection to be truly complete. I just received Catrine from one of my besties (and she had to hunt like mad for a good one), and tonight I picked up the cafe cart. I hope Mattel offers the pieces on their parts site; I need another one of those darling skull chairs!

Has anyone ever seen the Mommy and Gracie show on youtube?
http://www.youtube.com/user/MommyandGracieShow
It's a mother and daughter that review MH dolls (and other dolls) and you get to 'go with them' on doll hunts. Will admit their videos have killed many boring hours at work. They are rather fun.

I wish they would use this animation style for the webisodes and specials. I think it's gorgeous! I don't mind the animation is in the webisodes and specials, but I prefer this style.

I agree. But it looks really high quality. It probably would have made it far more expensive. But yes, that animation style is very awesome.
Does MH hair just not curl or is it just me? I tried a boil perm a while ago and the curls lasted about an hour before they flattened.

I'm having an issue with Rochelles hair holding a curl. I've boiled and set, boiled and set. And the curls just fall out. I'm not sure what I'm not doing right..

Soooo, according to some people on tumblr cable guides are claiming Scaris will air on March 1st, at 6PM on Nick~! Here's hoping it happens! I can only check my cable provider's schedule online until sometime Wednesday night so I can't add to 'conformation' until I can turn the TV on..

So, when has Spectra been known as Spectra Von Hauntington? Walmart has her plush doll on their site under this name rather than Vondergeist :lol:.

Spectra's working title was originally under that name. :) Later, it was later changed to Vondergeist when her trademark was filed.
This is the first image that was ever leaked of the character (which was presumably taken at Toyfair 2011), along with her original name on the box. Around the time she was released, many websites still had her "Von Hauntington" title listed for the character's doll and plush, since that's what they were originally told her name was. I guess some stores just never bothered to change it. :lol:

I have a question if any one can answer, what is the price of the werecat fearleading pack in store?
I wish they would use this animation style for the webisodes and specials. I think it's gorgeous! I don't mind the animation is in the webisodes and specials, but I prefer this style.

Are you sure that was the TRU listing? I just bought a set from TRU this morning and it was $39 ?? There is free shipping if you buy enough items to meet some minimum (forget what it was but am thinking $75 or so). But even if you don't meet the free shipping criteria, shipping was only $6.37 which is reasonable.
Just checked and TRU has another still available- $39. http://www.ebay.com/itm/350721601646?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/350721601646?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649)
At least now People can have a Scaris Cleo to go with their Scaris Deuce!
(...if not that it'll drive people frantic to go find a Scaris Deuce to go with Scaris Cleo.)
Ghoulest Season (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tHTrDcVA48)
HOLY NEW WEBISODE!! With Cupid?!?!
My two favorite characters in a box together! It's a dream come true :D Although I am also kinda meh about that Lagoona, but hopefully it's just that picture. Of course Cleo looks like a stunner though, like always :D I will definitely need this two-pack.
Can you guys tell, does that Cleo have tinsel? *hopesfornotinselhopesfornotinsel*
I hate having to tweeze Cleo's tinsel out only to be left with that weird white fuzz that won't come out.

You just want the shoes. ;) They do come with an extra set of shoes each!
Plus if you decide you don't want the dolls you'd make some of your money back selling those. You'd come out WAY ahead buying the set. Although then you'll fall in love and decide to keep the dolls :lol:i think i will pick up the 2 pack when i see it, and find new homes for the dolls.....unless they convince me they need to stay >.> cause that happens sometimes

hehe - of course :D the extra shoes are exciting (and the reason that buying it new would probably be better for me in the long run....tracking down 4 pairs of shoes at $5+ each....might as well buy the whole set)
lol I knew Jupi was gonna go gaga for the shoes!! :P
They should make a "Daughter of the Monster Under The Bed" and have her be some kind of ghoul who steals shoes and socks and comes with like....10 pairs of shoes and a bunch of socks! All mix and matched pairs that aren't the same, but do work together in contrast. That'd be an awesome idea for a release!! XD
So was it confirmed that the 2-pack was a TRU exclusive? I can't remember.
I wonder, because if that's a North American box it doesn't have the "Only at TRU" sticker on it anywhere.
