What's your latest most surprising find?
« on: February 02, 2013, 05:33:39 PM »
It doesn't have to be the one worth the most money or even that hard to find.  (and not any of the newer ones because we've all been looking for those  LOL) But what's the latest doll you've come across that you weren't expecting at all?  .....One of those older releases you're surprised to still find.

I'm pretty new to monster high dolls so mine might not be that interesting to you who've been with them for a long time.   :P  But what I've run across in the last week is a wave 2 Lagoona and a Kohl's exclusive Operetta!!  Since I am so new I picked up both of them with a puzzled look on my face wondering which ones they were.  Once the light bulb went off though I decided I had to have both!   ;)

So what's yours?

I found a wave 2 signature Lagoona today. She was so beautiful I couldn't resist getting her. I found her at Kmart.

I know she's new but I found Roller Maze Clawdeen today at Target!  Was not expecting  her at all and kinda figured she'd be difficult to find.  I let out a happy yelo when I saw her....:D

I found the Gloom Beach 5 pack today at my local Target.  Must've been a return.  One box amongst a bunch of SS packs.

I went to Walmart a couple of weeks ago, and they must have cleared out the old stockroom or something, because buried behind a bunch of the newer dolls (the school-based dolls, picture-day and a couple Scaris ones) ... was Signature Abbey!! :O And I'd been searching for her like crazy!! I just about lost it, I was sooo excited!

I saw someone grab a signature Abbey at Target the other day. I wish I had found her first! She was the last one. The women who grabbed her took off like crazy after finding her. I didn't get a scalper vibe from her, though. She may have been a collector, albeit a shy one. :)

Last week at Target, I actually found a Scaris Deuce!  It was completely unexpected, and I was ecstatic!  I was also surprised to find the swim line dolls at my local Fred Meyers!  They almost NEVER have new stuff there!

For those of you looking for signature Abbey, she is becoming something of a shelf warmer here at Kmart and Shopko so let me know if you meed me to get one for you.

These two! (Scaris Deuce & CAM Gorgon)
I didn't even expect them to be out in germany, since most of you US peeps are still searching for them and we usually get stuff like 2-3 months after the US.

So it was quite a surprise as I was just casually strolling by the toystore in the mall near my university.
I was actually just going to the mall to pick up one of those MLP G1 shirts at H&M but thought I should check if they had any 3-eyed-ghouls left, since mine has a somewhat misplaced 3rd eye - For that toystore NEVER.GETS.ANYTHING.NEW. ..well, turned out that day they did. YAY! ^^;
