Official Monster High Discussion

Venus looks amazing with curls! They make me think of vines launching themselves out of her head 

I'm assuming no one's seen Venus and Robecca in the UK yet? I don't have any toy shops near me so have to rely on what I see online. I'm kinda hoping they won't be available here for another month as I really can't afford them right now.

Hi!

I went to TRU today, and they only had Ghouls Rule. I went the week before and they also had a couple of Roller Maze, which I guess sold. I was so hoping they'd get Venus and Robecca in, or at least DDG, which I haven't seen anywhere, as it's the first Saturday of the month. I'll try next weekend too.

Excellent, we are getting some new dolls in then! If I see Venus and Robecca I will have to buy them anyway and cut down on other expenses 

[amenoo]

Oh got I can't wait for my Venus and Robecca to arrive D: they will probably arrive this week.

Just unboxed Ghoulia and took those wonky glasses off. Her faceup is so pretty!

I agree, I especially love her eyeshadow:) Paired with her curly fluffy bob she's just adorable!

The monster virus caught me too! I'm having for & looking forward to find more!

Welcome to the club! I tried to leave.... but I ended up coming crawling back.

Me too!! I've tried to sell all my girls but a few keep sneaking back in. I must be leaving the car door open when I leave from Wal Mart.

I'm getting the ones I love love love!! And as much as I loved robecca's pics online. I can't love her like that in person. So she might have to go. I've not made my mind up yet.

There were other people on the isle so I couldn't freak out and scream "omgomgomgomgomg I need them ALLLLL!"  and throw them in the air but I did jump up and down, squee, then cover my mouth so I don't look TOO phycho

haha!! I have actually gone SQUEEEE in a MH doll aisle! lol! 

I went today to a couple of stores. The only thing I actively want is bee girl, three0eye girl, and Skele girl, because I got the pack. No luck, but my local Walmart has a Signature Jackson with a smooshed box that has been eyeing me for three weeks. I cannot justify him, because I have the GB version... 20$!

Amazon had them in stock for really close to retail. If you buy enough to satisfy their $25 super saver shipping, shipping is free! Thats how I ended up getting the skele girl

Walmart in CO Springs was loaded with Venus and Robeccas, wish I had more cash so I could have gotten them for everyone. ;(

Ebay makes me depressed D:

Whenever I see a ST doll that isn't Scalper priced, they either don't ship international OR the shipping is 50$

I'm sure some of us could help you with this.

[dinobuzz]

Ack! My daughter and I were organizing all of her MH dolls and putting back on their original outfits and would you know it, all of her wave 1 dolls have the glue problem!!!!! Geez, I love these dolls and the whole MH thing and what they stand for but how can we get excited about new dolls when you just get the feeling that they're just gonna end up will greasey gooey hair? We have vintage dolls that have been around forever and their hair condition is way better!

.....just had to vent.....can't figure out why Mattel hasn't changed the methods of how they attach the hair in the factories in Indonesia or China .....I'm sure they have had a million emails regarding this problem by now......IMO, they should take their time and fix the problem instead of rushing to get 100 new doll characters out within a short peroid of time.

Still no word on Wydona Spider. Yuck.

[xkelpiex]

I am so lucky that none of my dolls have the glue seepage problem. I check their hair every week lol A biiiit paranoid. But at least we know something actually works to fight it.

A box from the US weighing 2 pounds ships for about $18 and a 3 pound box ships for about $25, so if anyone can find them for you, that is about what you should expect to pay.

Deboxing a doll  (If the buyer wants) and shipping it overseas via First Class usually costs no more than $15. Boxed you'd expect to pay a bit more.

Yeah I expect to pay between 15-20 usd for i MIB, and 12-15 for a loose in shipping. But 50usd to ship one MIB doll is not realistic. I don't need them tracked or anything like that.

Sellers on eBay just usually like to have tracking for international sales so they can receive their money sooner and be protected in case of a Paypal dispute being opened. The funds are usually released once the confirmation of delivery is there for eBay to see. Otherwise the wait could be a while and a buyer at anytime could say the item didn't get there/was lost in order to receive a full refund. The seller would have no say in it since the delivery was never confirmed.
I've never had that happen to me, but I've seen some bad buyers giving arena folks a hard time over on the TS forum.. ):
