Omg, I love looking back over posts that I write while I'm on my iPad and finding out how spellcheck changed words on me....  Weekend not weakened....stores not stors.....  (why does my spellcheck have stors in it anyway???)

My hubby agreed to purchase her [SDCC Ghoulia] for me, but I can't go much over $150. Anyone looking to sell for $150?? /shameless-plug

There's one going for ~200 dollars on ebay (BIN) and one auction that's currently going for $175.

Are signature Ghoulia's worth a lot or something? They sell quite a few in stores over here.

Sig Ghoulias are currently selling on US eBay for around $70US or more, so yeah, they go for a bit.  They haven't been seen in stors for a bit around here.  (I have been half watching their prices lately).   I could have sworn I saw a SDCC Ghoulias for around $125 somewhere earlier this weakened but now I can't locate where that was >.<

Another tutorial that starts by making their own rubber wig cap (I really want to try this one out now...even though I have three fabric wig caps waiting for me, lol)

Puki, that's such a cute photo! Jackson and Ghoulia seem like a great geek-team together, haha.
Thanks! I agree. I have more geeky activities planned for them. I can see a romance blossoming between the two, as well ... poor Frankie. Well, would it count as two-timing if Frankie went out with Holt while Ghoulia went out with Jackson?  ;)

On a side note, I told myself I really didn't like the Ghouls Rule line, but Tuney's and Picklepud's photos of GR Frankie with her hair down are seriously making me reconsider. Good thing the GR line is not (and may not ever be) available here in NZ.

I can find them here :P do you want some? :D

On a side note, does the male CAM gargoyle have a torso? or is he gonna have to be stuck with puma or vampire torso?

Correct me if I'm wrong [I don't have the CAM boys] but doesn't the Vamp/Gargoyle have their own torsos, and it is the puma that is out on his own?

That's the way it is, the puma is the misfit :)

I've been researching this exact same thing.....  So far, I've come up with a tutorials on mohair glued wigs for fashion dolls thAt would work :  http://www.fantasydollsbyd.com/New_page_72.htm
(I'm going to try this one out reeeaallly soon.  I just need to get new glue)

I saw silicon wig caps on eBay but I don't know of they'd be sturdy enough for actual wigs-they're built to go under doll wigs to prevent slipping or staining.  HOWEVER, I did finally find cloth wig caps that would allow doll hair to be sort of woven or sewn into it.....  Which intrigues me with possibility.  Most MH dolls are around a size 5 wig.

The boy dolls are a slightly bigger head size- but then, there is also variation amongst the girl dolls as well as I've found out.  My ghost CAM wig looks silly on all head sculpts except the vampire girls be auss they have the smallest head sculpt :). It seems the sea monsters have one of the biggest.  Random tidbit there.

What color limbs did you use?   I was at a loss as to what to put with orange :).

I had leftover parts from the torso pack Mattel thankfully released, so I used the Three Eyed Ghouls upper arms and legs.  I altered a blue and orange LIV dress, and she wears a blue LIV wig.  I also popped her ears onto the sides of her head <3  She's almost perfect.  It bothers me her ears don't want to stay flush with her face.  Other than that, I love her!

She sounds awesome! :D Do you have any pictures?


Looking forward to pictures :). Blue and orange are one of my fav combos.....I could see that working :)

Has anyone complained to Mattel about the new nocturnal and mythical CAM sets?   We're back to chimera dolls because there are no matching upper thighs or upper arms for the main torsos and heads in these packs.  Grrr.

:)  that was my hope when I found that box....the things I find in my closet!  (and omg this box!)

DDG 3 pack spoken for until I get more in my hands (if I get more or make some money to get more or something like that ;) )

239
awesome, that is the thread I remember I think....no idea why my search skills suck so bad.  I have to come up with a good method to distribute the rest after I talk to her.  I have 7 small hanks total :)
