Maybe when they started making the custom they weren't sure if she was actually getting a release? And once they started they just figured keep making her?

I found this just now on tumblr, and it has me excited! When I get my hands on a couple Heath dolls, I am totally going to try making him shorter!

I'm hella stupid when it comes to some stuff. 

I can't seem to view the tutorial:(  Little help?

I finally decided to get one of those six armed torsos. The goal is to make Sasa Lisi from the Casanova series, seen below. Now just to get another ice girl and two extra sets of arms...this is not going to be easy!

I expect Operetta to be more rare on shelves for the PD line. It looks like there will be two case assortments for the Picture Day 2.0 line.

From http://www.entertainmentearth.com/

Monster High Doll Assortment Wave 12 Set
The Wave 12 set of 3 individually packaged dolls (subject to change):
1x Picture Day Frankie
1x Picture Day Lagoona
1x Picture Day Operetta 

Monster High Doll Assortment Wave 11 Case
The Wave 11 case of 6 individually packaged dolls (subject to change):
2x Picture Day Frankie
2x Picture Day Lagoona
1x Picture Day Cleo de Nile
1x Picture Day Abbey Bominable

^ Argh. That's going to be incredibly annoying I hope that Canada will see the 3-doll case, not just the 6-doll, or we'll have to import Operetta from you American pals. Interesting though that there *is* a 3-doll case--first time there's been that configuration for a deluxe doll line? I think?

And PD Spectra and Lala are going to be done once their wave stops shipping, but Cleo and Abbey get to stick around... interesting! Although it would make more sense to me if the 6-doll case had Operetta instead of Abbey, but I guess that's what "subject to change" is for And it's not a problem for Lala, since she seems to have saturated everyplace, but anyone who wants Spectra better snatch her up before then.

Maybe that's just me being stupid again, but I don't get the people making customs of characters that are already announced to come out at one point for sure.
I mean, hey, they can do whatever they want and I'm a big fan of custom dolls, but it seems like such a waste of time (and another MH doll) to try to create something when you know you can have the original toy standing on your shelf sooner or later.

My thoughts exactly.. don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful custom, but.. come on, September isn't that far away, is it? :/

Ooh, new promo pics! -rushes to look at-

I feel the same way. Why bother? Right? But Im sort of glad they did it, because it lets me see the concept made reality. I can see how the design works on a real doll... And I have to admit, Im not loving it I hope that she looks a lot nicer when she is factory made. I can't put my finger on what I dont like.. maybe the glitter? I still like the art for her though. So I guess we will see!

I'm for this with pre-release dolls, because really I think it's people trying to make extra money by making the concept first, because there are plenty of folks who don't realize it's just a custom. On the other hand, customs of out of circulation or hard to find dolls are fine with me, because not many want to pay a ton for a plastic toy.

And also, that amount of glitter is an atrocity; it looks like a dollar store giftbox- way too tacky.

Ah!  Thanks:)

See?  Told you!  Hella stupid!  I could have just looked up the artist's name

That's a neat tutorial!  I'd like to try it just to see if I could do it.

Tuney:  That's gonna be such a awesome doll!  You must show us how she looks when you've finished her!

Thanks for the case assortments on the PD line.  I've been waiting for this news since the pics of the dolls were shown.  I bought all the wave 1 PD girls a few days ago for fear of missing them, but I probably could have waited.  Oh well.  Now I don't have to worry at all:)

[LuvlyMelody]

Arrgh if they're gonna remove Spectra from the case, I better get one before she's all gone. >,<;

[Nana-Rena]

Why ewmove Spectra and keep Abbey? Spectra is more popular, at least here and Abbey is everywhere, so I don't really get it.

This promo pic of the new Classroom dolls is from BBTS. We finally get a decent picture of Ghoulia and Cleo! Are Ghoulia's shoes repaints of her comic book fashion pack shoes?

Yeah, like me, apparently. I feel a bit stupid now, should have checked better before posting. 

Maybe when they started making the custom they weren't sure if she was actually getting a release? And once they started they just figured keep making her?

Or maybe people hear the news and see the character concept on the Internet and they decide to make a custom so that they (and others) can have an idea of what it will really look like? Not to mention that this custom will be big news for a while before the "real" one comes out.

You aren't stupid. I think I put the wrong links in. I'll edit it when I get back to my desktop. >.< I thought I had linked to deviantart. Thanks Frankie!
