Ahh amenoo your Snow Bite art is so perfect! :lovey:

I can try to pick up extra 3-packs if people here need them, if/when my Walmart gets them (they'd better!!) They seem to stock fairly well, I just have to be there at the right time. Hoping they're not going to be too expensive here... the DotD 3pack last year was $35 Cdn but I bet the DDG will be more this year. All the dolls' prices are up--and they were bad enough here already  >_<
:heart: sales/trades ~ on hiatus :heart:

I think this might have been mentioned already, but what do y'all think about

CleoXDeuce vs RochelleXDeuce?

Personally, I'd like them to keep Deuce and Cleo together. There are many reasons, but the main one is how well they compliment each other. Sure, Cleo may be an outspoken diva, but she's also generous and has a kind heart. She's not a villain (although the first set of webisodes portrayed her that way) and I think she and Deuce balance each other out.  Also, storyline wise, it looks like Nefera is coming back, and I really wouldn't want to see Cleo take two hits in one go.

One thing I've always enjoyed about this line is how not every character is obsessed with having a boyfriend. There are three with canon "significant others", with Ghoulia's possible romance with Slo-Mo being a fourth. But other than Frankie and Rochelle, the others are pretty "whatever" about finding a mate, and I like that. I think breaking up the quintessential couple would change this dynamic a lot. Also, I wouldn't like the implications of a strong, outspoken female losing her long term boyfriend to a more subtle, "feminine" character. So far, they've done a great job of showing different dynamics (Operetta having a platonic relationship with Deuce and Holt comes to mind); Clawd and Lala already portray the jock/girly-girl couple. No need for another one so similar.

THAT'S IT.

I'm putting out a APB on the Ghost Girl CAM pack. I CAN NOT find this thing anywhere! Has anyone got it in their area still? If I'm going to pay above retail and for shipping, I'd rather it be you guys.

My experience with Puma boy has been similar! I did find one Ghost girl set for myself, about a month ago - but I've never seen her again since, and never seen him at all. I'm trying to wait him out, as surely they're going to produce more, they're still shipping the original three after all. Maybe they stopped sending Ghost and Puma for now because the new 5-torso pack is intended for the others?

I've seen the Puma boy and the ghost girl in the past week.

I'll try to get the Ghost girl if I come across her again.

Cleo and Deuce are too ridiculously OTP for me to seriously see with anyone else. Also, kinda ship RochelleXRobecca so... ;p

That aside, totally need DDG Abbey in my life! So pretty!

I like the fact that not all the characters are obsessed with finding a romantic partner too. Also, Cleo/Deuce are pretty low-key. Aside from the episode with Operatta, Cleo isn't too full of jealous drama unlike a lot of other characters from similar series.

Also, I have a great fondness for Cleo and I'd really not like to see her be treated horribly for no good reason other than needless plot :( If there was a legitimate reason that she and Deuce grew apart, then I would have no problem with Rochelle/Deuce. However, it would have to make sense, and I doubt there's enough room in the webisodes and diaries to show such a change well.

Just make sure the water isn't too hot. Spectra has kanekalon, and it's more prone to frizzing at really high heats. I believe Mandy says she gets it to about 150 degrees.
