I had mentioned how frankie's eyes seemed funny to me when he in the box picture first came out. I guess I wasn't crazy and it's eye wonk? I still don't really understand what that term means. Can someone explain please?

Wonky eyes are eyes that have been painted on in the wrong place. It's an all too common flaw with these dolls. One eye might be higher than the other, or further to the left or right. Sometimes both eyes are down on their cheeks or up on their eyebrows. Sometimes one eye is noticeably larger than the other.

Hmm..so what's the case with this particular Frankie though?

I think I like this DT version of Lagoona better.  I kind of think DT1 is a little washed out.  I love the slippers and I like this version of Robecca better than her DC version.   I will be getting all three DTs and PDs I think.  I am still not sure about Operetta.  She was my first but the changes and poorly executed pompadour are making her a little less appealing while Frankie is looking more so.

I'm digging DT Robecca.  The others are kinda meh (yay for my wallet!)

Her right eye looks to be a little too close to her nose compared to her left eye. Her scar is right up under her eye too, which is unusual.

Here's a better picture of her: http://www.flickr.com/photos/52380108@N03/8575405271/in/photostream/

It looks like her right eye was printed too close to her nose, tilted a smidge, and a TINY bit further down.

Grr I am just so mad right now! So sorta backstory I've never actually bought a MH from TRU before and mostly just got them at Walmart/Superstore. So I went today and was so excited to see the big stock! They even had Scaris Rochelle! I've been looking for her forever and found one with a perfect face-up and was just so happy. So I checked the price and it was $37.99! All the deluxe dolls at Walmart/Superstore are only $25.00! But I just couldn't afford to buy her for that much. I was just so heartbroken as I finally found her after looking forever and still couldn't get her. When I mentioned how much cheaper they are at Walmart to the girl stocking them she just shrugged. I still came out with an Operetta fashion pack since it was the same price as Walmart FPs but I realllly wanted Rochelle and it seems every time I got to Walmart they are just wiped clean of MH

ANyways I just adore the new DT ghouls!! I love the DT line and want to collect them all now!

To everyone wondering about Frankie, she looks so much better in this review!

Yay new DT! I'm a huge DT fan already so no surprise I love these three! Their faceups seem really soft and pretty, and hooray for Robecca's cute accessories, Goona's comfy tshirt/shorts, and flowy ghost nightgown on Spectra, perf. And I'm so glad to be able to get a DT Goona since I can't afford the first one

I was really excited for these already but now, SUPER KEEN!

Someone post the new DT Ghouls!!

Thanks for sharing that ! I am in love with the Victrola Robecca is holding, and the goggle eye-mask and those slippers are TDF ! Kinda surprised Mattel didn't go with a simple white 'shroud' nightgown for Spectra, but what she's got is cute. And Lagoona is especially adorable, but since I already have the Hydration Station one, probably won't seek this one. Love that layer-look t-shirt ! Still, the DT series has once again 'brought it', and is completely, amazingly awesome !

PS to Lilac-Mint - Grrrl, I know what you mean. How can they even think they can ask nearly forty bucks for a Scaris doll when their own two-doll set is only $30. ? I know I snort when I see their ads - "Why buy toys anywhere else ? Whyyy??!" - and mutter, 'Cause everywhere else is cheaper, ya idjits !

Hope you find her soon - at a decent price. Think you can show them a Mal-wart receipt with the price of other Scaris dolls on it ? They do offer price-matching (or, at least, they did at Christmas).

Huh, I usually cannot stand Spectra, but I'm loving that Dead Tired one! Such a cute little nightgown!

Same, it's so frilly and adorable.

I'm loving Robecca's face but wait for the out of box pictures. Those change everything!

[Bow Tie]

Robecca and Lagoona are a 100% must get!!! Spectra once again looks the same as all her other dolls. She is getting really boring. She and Abbey are notorious for having pretty much the same hair and make up for every doll of theirs which is such a shame.

[LuvlyMelody]

Maybe it's the pink, maybe it's the way the lip is painted on or photographed, but there's something about this spectra I am not digging, but like everyone said, I need to see her in person.

[animal_lover]

I'm kind of disappointed Robecca doesn't have the blule in her hair!
