Monster High Collection
May. 28th, 2012 08:49 pm So, for my birthday my uncle gave me £50, and I have been determined not to spend it on bills, for once. So today I kidnapped a good friend of mine and we went to the local Toys R Us, fore the sole purpose of me blowing the whole lot on toys. Literally.
I got a good haul. I managed to find the elusive Metal Sonic mini-figure I have been searching for for months, which was awesome- but the real goodies came in the Monster High isle. Normally Portsmouth is woefully lacking on the MH doll side of things, so I wasn't hopeful.... but they had loads! Mainly Rochelles and Operettas, but there was also a Sweet 1600 Clawd Wolf, the complete set of current UK CAM sets, some of the clothing sets, and a lone Jackson Jekyll, which I almost bought. Unfortunately I was put off by his super-block-square chin, which is kind of horrible looking. Poor guy. -__-;
Anyway, I DID come home with a Werecat Twins box set and a 3-eyed ghoul CAM set. ^__^ The little bit of money left over from all that I spent on a custom blue torso from Etsy, and someone on DoD is hopefully sending me some sea monster arms, so I can build the complete 3-eyed doll. Her face is remarkably cute in person, which I wasn't expecting- all the pictures of her I have seen online have failed to do her justice.
As for the cats.... well... you guys know how much I dislike cat girls in general, and they are certainly not my favourite characters.... but the dolls are really nice in person. >_<; And I have missed all the other box sets- Draculaura/Clawd, Cleo/Deuce, and the Wolf Sisters.... I didn't want to miss this one too. >_>;
So, now I am only really missing Venus McFlytrap and the boy CAM set from the dolls that I really want. I may well get others along the way (I wouldn't mind a non-black and white Frankie for one thing, and a bee girl, and I may even get Jackson too....), but I am actually pretty happy with my collection. They look awesome lined up on my desk at the moment. XD
Also (as if there needs to be more!) my present from my Canadian friend arrived and OMG!! ^____^ It is indeed a MH doll, but she's not quite ready to share yet! When I have an appropriate outfit sorted, though.... well.... there will be pictures. Rest assured of that! ^___-.
In Other News:
Revision continues for my exam on Wednesday.
I hate revision. It is, as they say, sucky.
