Monster High Discussion Thread

Beautiful dolls indeed!! I don't see her as being manipulative myself. I have seen plenty of people too nervous shy or unsure of how to approach someone. Rochelle made an excuse to talk to him. I don't see that as such a bad thing myself. It creates a more natural way to have a convo. Duece doesn't have to worry about turning her to stone, and Duece is a great guy. If he's interested in Rochelle (which I don't think he is) he's a decent enough guy to be up front and honest about it. Besides, sometimes we just find ourselves having chemistry with a person, relationship or none. Just because it starts off as a bit of a crush doesn't mean that it has to stay that way. Rochelle has even confided her feelings in someone else, who told her that it was heading for heart break. Lonely, in a new place, looking for where she fits in? I'd say she could be cut some slack. With how conceited Cleo can be, people aren't picking her apart.

It's all about preference. Cleo, in the webisodes, and all else, is with Duece and they're happy! It doesn't mean that in peoples own collections that they can't have other ideas and couples

Can we all remember that these are fictional dolls and not worth such drama among people who are real and breathing? this is all in fun lovies <3

While I agree with this, I just want to stir the pot a bit anyway by pointing out that Hoodude mentions in his diary that he's "heard that Deuce has been seen hanging out on rooftops with that new gargoyle ghoul, Rochelle."

Personally, I don't care as I do not "follow" any of the various continuities. I don't watch the webisodes, I've never read the books, and I only like to read the diaries to get some insights and inspiration for the MH world in general. My Rochelle is dating my Scottish gargoyle boy, Flint, while Deuce and Cleo are happily together, and I don't have any plans to alter those relationships in my photos.

That being said, I can sympathize with Rochelle. I know how hard it is to maintain a long distance relationship.

Plus we don't really know anything about this Garrote guy. Who says he's been faithful to her in her absence? Perhaps she will discover that he's moved on while she's been away ... After all, on the back of Scaris Rochelle's box, it reads "Most of all I am looking forward to seeing ... him. I have not received the letter from him in so very long. I am sure there is a reason, hopefully it is a good one."

Couldn't "he" be a brother or something?

I really am looking forward to how all this plays out! I don't see this as pot stirring, just discussion Do we get to see pics of Rochelle and Flint? Sounds wonderful!

carpel tunnel ?

Re-rooting pains. I could be doing something wrong as my hands hurt really bad for days after I am done with a doll.

I suppose it's a possibility, although I would argue that the pregnant pause indicated by the ellipsis suggests otherwise. Whatever the case, it does seem like a rather ominous bit of text. I think it's fair to assume that whoever he is, the reason for him not writing to her in a long time is *not* a good one.

Cool. I am curious myself.

Do we get to see pics of Rochelle and Flint? Sounds wonderful!

I have taken some of them together already! Here's one, and here's the other. I have been planning another one for several months now, but I am still waiting on some props I commissioned for the photo.

[kissthethunder]

Oh gosh, he's really something!! I love him! He and Rochelle look awesome together <3 He has a great style too! Her posing is fantastic, how she's holding her hair! Can't wait to see more

As far as whoever Rochelle has been waiting a letter for, I agree, it doesn't look promising.

I love how photogenic Flint is! He's one of my faves. In that first photo of Rochelle holding her hair - my wife actually posed her like that. I have since put her hair in pigtails.

As far as whoever Rochelle has been waiting a letter for, I agree, it doesn't look promising.

I notice that there's nothing about "him" in her travel diary. They must have a Scaris TV special planned or something.

I don't care who he is - I just want a gargoyle boy with some big muscles!!!

[LuvlyMelody]

If they gave a different mold for him to be really buff, I can imagine him looking like Senior Senior Junior from Kim Possible. lol

hi all, I was wondering if I could get advice on the best time to go look for monsters at the store, because every time I go, it looks like a tornado just hit the section. thanks.

[xkelpiex]

In the morning, really. Like 9 am if possible. That's in my case, anyway.

I would say it depends on what store(s) you are going to. If I am going to TRU I go the morning of their shipments, which is different for different locations, right away when they open. As for other stores its hard to say because they get random shipments of toys in any day of the week. I would say skip Sunday since I believe walmart at least does not get shipments of anything then, and I believe Tuesday is the other day Walmart doesn't get shipments. Not sure about Target though. Supercenters of those stores typically seem to get more in selection wise as well, at least in my area. Hope that helps a little bit!

I find that the best time for me is weekdays before the kids get out of school. I can't drive yet, so I never really get the chance to go out early in the morning (I suggested it, but my mom,who drives me around, wasn't very keen on it  )


I find it weird that now my Wal-Mart's swimming in Cupids O.o Even odder is that it's the S1600 version. Is this happening at anyone else's? Not that I'm complaining, of course!
