Monster High Discussion 13

[spherogirl]

Just checked the store in Lowell and got the same thing. Empty shelves and stickers. I asked one of the employees and she said that they wouldn't get their shipment until Friday.

At which store? I've been looking in the Lowell area and NH and haven't spotted even an indication that they are coming!

I love Clawdeen's hammer pants and her yellow jacket too.  Kung foo Lagoona is a tough sell however.  I'm going to swing by Target *again* this morning to see if they received Powerghouls stock.  I know they're arriving soon because they cleared shelf space and put out their price sticker.  Wish me luck!

Hey!  The Target in Haverhill and Methuen MA are the ones with spots and stickers for Powerghouls.  I was just at the one in Haverhill this morning, and they weren't stocked yet.

I wish I had that kind of luck!

ETA: If you look closely, you'll see that it's a Clawdeen with human hands, not claws. So, a really old one!

First thing that popped into my mind when I saw the picture.

I am so grateful that I found every signature doll in store in the beginning of my collecting without having to panic online at those scary high prices. >,<; Also grateful that when I couldn't find First release Clawdeen, someone here was nice enough to pick one up for me here and sell for a total of the price+shipping!

I got all mine back in the day as well! So glad that, for the first time ever, I was ahead of the bandwagon.

My Target was resetting today when I went there. No new MH dolls yet, but all of the new ponies were there.

I only got Frankie at the store when they first came out. ;^;
But I stalked ebay for MONTHS and managed to get Lagoona for 1.5x and Clawdeen for 2x their resale price, from a collector. (So basically mint, even the plastic cords were/are still attached. They have a wee bit of glue seepage, to treat it I had to get rid of the cords which was/is a shame but oh well.
..then again which EU wave1 doll doesn't have seeping glue. )

So still a reasonable price. However, I'd LOVE for them to be re-released like Lala, because I desperately want to repaint those two in my own style. xD ..so fingers crossed that one day they'll be sold again. ;>

I got all my originals when they came out. In fact, if I"m not mistaken my Draculaura's box (which is in the attic right now) said that the dolls were for 13+ instead of 6+. There's times I kind of wish they STILL said that because I HATE HATE HATE having a customer b*tch to me and say that the dolls are slutty and not appropriate for her 9 year old and how dare Mattel make dolls like that and market them to kids as young as 6. That or that box says it's for 6 year olds why do you think my 12 year old would like this she isn't into baby toys. Both of those parents make me roll my eyes.

[Frankie Stein]

Yeah because your the one marking the age requirement and your the one FORCING the customers to buy them and rant on you lol

[eristell_neko]

Yes. They have discovered my evil scheme. Whatever shall I do? *goes back to stocking shelves*

Mine was too, I grabbed Polterghoul and the two coloring ponies, they were working on ponies, so I didn't get in the way, lol.  I left Wonder Wolf behind.  I know that from this moment, I will never see her again, and she will become the doll I want the most solely because I left her there.

This happens to me quite a bit. I decide I don't want a certain doll I saw in stores and then my ambivalence turns into "must get" the minute I realize I may have lost my chance to ever get that doll for retail price.

I must be in the minority because I liked the most recent wave of single fashions the best. I love that they are simplistic and more realistic. I did not like the last wave at all. Lagoona's suit thing was very unfortunate, and while the Hammer pants brought back some memories, they've never actually been on a doll. The only outfit from that set that I even remotely liked was Abbey's, but that's because I'm a figure skater and doll ice skates always make me happy.

ETA: WOAH! Look what someone just found at a Walmart in California!

I too like the cute new fashions and at 5.99 I think they work ;D

Also that picture! I am soooo jealous haha.  It must be old stock or something since right below it is the ice bed for Abbey!~  I wish that'd happen to me 

Some of the Targets here have started their resets but I've noticed they are typically slow near my house so I just wait it out.

I'm not sure if I LOVE all the new dolls coming out so fast and in a short span of time, but it is also exciting to have choices unlike MLP

I wish I could find in-stores a wave 1 Clawdeen to replace my wonk-eyed girl. So jelly right now! xD

Oh man that is so lucky! I keep kicking myself for passing by Clawdeen and Torelai.
