oooooh....swordpony I love Howleens hair! I normally dont like moving hair from original but that look is super tempting to recreate [although not as good as yours knowing my shoddy hair styling skills!]

Aww thanks!! I wasn't a fan of the hawk she had going on. That was super easy to do I just took her hair down and fluffed. I sprayed a little water on to help but I like that look on her much better.

Ooh, where'd you get that dress for Howleen? You guys are really making me want her now. Uhg, now I hope I get this job on Friday so I can afford these things! ROFl

Its Cleo's DOTD outfit with Clawdeen's belt from the 2.0 version. Howleen looks so cute in Cleo's colors. I guess it cause there skin tone is almost the same. You so need Howleen in you collection. She is a must have. He he.

I think I need a Clawdeen for a custom idea... Is GB Clawdeen easiest/cheapest to get?

I haven't seen any single clawdeen in a long time here.

Fingers crossed for you aellos! I really love your sig pic BTW!

Thank you! :D I'm really hoping for it. It's with Micheals the craft store. If not, I'm getting worn down on this job hunt thing and I reaaaaaly don't want to go back to working in a nursing home.

But back then I could buy stuff. DX

I was looking at the releases and gathered that Clawdeen has been kinda "out" for a while. But the GB one is the one I've mostly seen on eBay, excluding the pack with Howleen.
Pfft. I saw her at a local store, but I just refuse to pay the prices here, $43 is the most expensive price for them I've seen...

I don't understand why they don't make more dolls, or why it's legal to sell dolls for 5 times as much on ebay :/

I don't understand why they don't make more either. They could be selling so many more dolls, and I think the scalping is going to start hurting Mattel.  It is so frustrating that I feel like I'm almost at the point where I'm just done with collection, plus I have to make tough decisions like overpaying for 1 doll online or holding out to get 2 dolls for that price in the store.  But with gas money being so expensive and my stores never having anything in stock, I'm just tired of wasting my time looking.  I love the dolls but it's gotten so much more ridiculous since I've started collecting them.

I'm to that point also. I haven't gotten a doll since Cupid and I wasted so much gas and time and sweat trying to find her it was ridiculous. I really just want the Werecat twins but I know they are legit impossible to find no point in even trying the TRU crew is so unhelpful.

What I dont understand is the distribution...Cupid is literally crawling all over 2 of my local Asda stores but in the US she seems to have been very difficult to track down...while over here I had to fight tooth and nail to get an Operetta and never even saw a Spectra on shelf when she should have been out...

I guess like G4s and Hasbro, Mattel are a little all over the place with distribution!
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

I love Loa more than PonyLady!

Guh, now I'm torturing myself. Some of Howleen's stuff would go so well on my werewolf CAM (who still doesn't have  name, sadface). Hehe. :D

Again, I think I'm way to anxious about this job interview. DX


And distribution seems to really suck. I think I'm having such a hard time because I live in a metropolitan area, and there are probably tons of people here who collect, not to mention probably a billion scalpers. DX Yeah, I may have like 50 targets in a 10 mile radius (I don't think I'm exaggerating there actually) but that just means more people.




ALSO: Those who want to have Howleen keep her mohawk, but don't want the curly stuff:

Man, I wish I could afford to go out and buy all the Gloom Beach dolls I've seen around here to help some people out. I also see the Sweet 1600 set a lot (aside from Clawd).

I adore the GB set. At this point I have all of them but Draculaura.

On another note, did anyone watch Glee last night? I think Finn fished a Lala doll (possibly DT) out of a swimming pool in one scene...

Creedence, I'm from minneapolis. I don't have much better luck with dolls in my area either but if there's something specific you are looking for and I have the extra money I could try to get it for you, at least shipping would be cheap!
