moanica ended up being so cute, it's a shame that ari is so boring
Rescued this girl plus a Cheshire cat one (Kitty?) from Goodwill today for $2. I don't know this series or Ever After High very well, so I picked her up for a friend, but she's pretty cool. They had a big pile of them but the majority of them looked like the same girl with different colored tangled hair. I think they were mostly all Ever After dolls. I've never given these dolls much thought but I love how posable they are and I'm keeping the cute cat girl for myself.
>yfw Moanica is shit
Do you like to repaint your doll or customize them?
>>5718283
I've fucked up enough Transformers to know to stay away from customizing. So no, I don't.
>>5718283
i'm not really good with customs
>>5718283
I've tried my hand at customs, and I don't think I'm terrible at it, but I have a lot to learn still. I've done three and a half new faces. The fourth is a WIP and hasn't been touched in weeks because taken a break recently because I have a lot of other projects on my plate, but I'd like to get back to it soon and try a few reroots as well.
I like to repaint details on dolls accessories
>>5718283
You couldn't pay me to do either
>>5718283
i feel like if i were to do some kind of customization, it would be like, say, taking a darling charming doll and giving her her massive hair and repainting her accessories to be a bit more accurate. i don't trust myself to repaint any of my dolls though.
>>5718283
I don't trust my hand enough to paint the actual doll but I have no problem touching up clothes and accessories or restyling hair a bit.
not strictly MH I know but listing for DC Super Hero Girls dolls have started to pop up on various stores websites and systems here in the UK
also the figures and the 'Hero Training' dolls that were shown at Toy Fair
>>5718283
Well, I have an extra Dawn of the Dance Clawdeen that I ripped all the hair out of a few years back, and a skeleton girl skull and limbs thing. This week I'm hoping to go to the art store and get some stuff and then try my first repaint. Looked at a lot of videos and tutorials, so I think I got the basic ideas down. Now sure what expression/colors I want. I'll try rerooting afterwards.
I'll post some pics when I'm done and we can all have a good laugh
This girl on tumblr just got mad cause I told her to brush her damn dolls hair..
It's doll neglect and abuse, and I won't stand for it.
Brush your dolls hair!!
Better yet, change that disgusting manufactured hair into something beautiful
Like this Catty's beautiful hair
Look how beautiful
>>5718801
Don't try to argue with people on tumblr, they just make your head hurt.
>>5718349
I'm about where this anon is. I'm good, but not great. I had one I'm rerooting currently, but I've been out of state for two months for work. It'll be nice to get back to work on my dolls.
And rooting hair is easy but time consuming and occasionally frustrating. I just use an exacto knife handle with a 10 size, I think, tiny needle with the eye cut at an angle. It's a good cheap hack, but I've broken a good amount of needles from being bent too much.
>>5718823
Yea I know I know
>>5718283
Yeah, but rarely. If I do customize I sell them. Apart from my Elledee I customized, I'm keeping her.
>>5718801
Do you have a picture of the doll?
>>5718283
I like to make clothes for my dolls, but I haven't tried repainting them yet
I've been thinking of getting some cheap/used/broken dolls to try customizing though, I'd love to try it out, and I've done a lot of research
>>5719398
You got some MH sized doll patterns you're willing to share?
Because I want to learn how to sew and I have WAAAY too many naked MH dolls that I've found in thrift stores.
>>5719525
Where's Lewdgoona when we need them?
Trying a few customs myself. First attempt at a wig. Made the base from some silicon stuff they use for toy cake frosting.
The hair I got from China didn't work with the white glue method, so I'm gonna just glue it down sewn roots and all and see how it goes.
>>5719525
monsterhigh-club.ru has some pretty cute patterns, but it's in russian unfortunatly
You can always just use normal patterns and try to size them down if you feel up to it
Lastly, MyFroggyStuff on youtube has done some pretty easy tutorials on clothes, if you don't mind it being slightly cringey
>>5719614
>MyFroggyStuff
>cringy
They are the most enjoyable doll and craft channel on youtube.
>>5719614
Not him but thanks, I've picked up some quilting quarters and ribbons in the past intending to make clothes but kept putting it off cause my sewing skills are mediocre and I cant make a pattern for shit.
cheerhexing squad 5 pack when?
>>5719662
>Happy Crafting!
No, just no.
>>5719528
You called?
Good thing i was lurking today.
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hp25dblcjtr4ohj/AABsJAePjB1gW3rNXFr9p9RZa?dl=0
Have some patterns.
>>5719946
Sorry but Hunter doesn't need a new doll.
>>5720448
I think it's cute that her son says "Happy Crafting!".
>>5720969
I hate his hairstyle he looks like Hitler
What are some other doll clothes that will fit Super Hero High dolls? Not even trying MH since they're too small.
How many of you have Asperger syndrome or are NEETs?
>>5721280
>asperger's
no
>NEET
no
so sorry, but here take a (You) for the trouble you went to
>>5721280
>I'll take this bait
Sorry buddy, I'm a full time worker and a fully functioning member of society that just happens to collect dolls among other toys.
>>5719866
You're welcome! Haha, I feel you, I suck at sewing, but I think it's fun so I just keep struggling with it
>>5719662
Well, I agree that the channel is really enjoyable, I can sit and watch her craft videos for hours, but she's pretty cringey, especially the Darbie show or whatever she's got going on on her channel.
since mattel isn't including stands anymore where can i get them now? i could buy them through them but the site messes up when i purchase and ebay is charging an arm and a leg
>>5721269
No one?
>>5721269
i don't own any of the DC super hero girls dolls, so i don't know what the body type for the dolls are. the only thing i know about them is that they're a bit larger than MH/EAH, so again - not sure
>>5721269
barbie probably
>>5721721
I find the Darbie Show pretty enjoyable but I guess everyone has diffrent taste. But those dolls live better than I do and they live in cardboard.
>>5721269
I've heard that MC2 clothes fit them okay.
>>5722617
Somebody say Darbie?
>>5722119
Buy from Mattel or get generic doll stands from Amazon or eBay or even from craft stores. You could also look in thrift stores or garage sales for them.
>>5721269
Some Barbie stuff fits alright. I mostly have older Barbie stuff, so the waist and hips are probably a bit smaller than the current ones but I got a sweater and skirt outfit on Harley, the matching undershorts were way too tight though.
Ok so I stopped following the threads a while ago, what ever happened with the super smiley budget dolls? My bf actually wants to get a smiling Apple for reasons and the only ones we've seen have the same face as before.
>>5723181
Not them but they said in their post that eBay charges a lot and the Mattel site doesn't work for them
>>5723345
they should be in stores or at least online, check amazon
>>5721247
>looks like Hilter
But that's the whole reason I got the 2 pack to mod him into a young Adolf doll.
>>5723863
The Mattel site works fine and eBay has generic doll stands where you can get 10 for $1 from China so so saying eBay is expensive is BS.
>>5720969
>>5721247
>>5724379
...Did someone mention Hunter S. Hitler?
>>5724413
well now it is me, but the mattel site never works for me whenever i hit checkout nothing happens, i've tried on my laptop, desktop, and phone. all three don't allow me to check out so saying that it works for you doesn't really help.
>>5724574
But works just fine for me so and I assume everyone else so it seems odd that it affects just you. Seems odd.
>>5724645
I've likewise had trouble with the Mattel site, sadly. But I'm from Ausfailia, so my issue is that it won't take an Australian card when trying to get items sent to my parents' place in Missouri.
>>5724574
Where do you live, anon? You should be able to email them directly and ask them for an invoice for items if the site isn't working properly. I did that to get replacement earrings for sig Rochelle.
We have crossover, such as it is.

Made a last minute trip to target, decided to check dolls because why not? Found an original Catty Noir for $5.25. Today was a good day.
>>5726002
That's what I did via email eventually. It didn't want to go through on the site, but I don't remember the error it gave me at the time.
>>5726715
I hate you, man.
I was in the hospital when she was out, and by the time i was able to get to the store, there was no sign of her anywhere.
>>5726870
Catty was a shelfwarming queen everywhere I went. How long were you in the hospital?
So what's everyone's take on the exclusives from SDCC 2106? I think I need to sell a kidney to cover all the wants I have this year.
>TFW this was just posts in a /co/ thread
Rate your SDCC gets:
Robecca & Dad 2 pack
DCSHG Katana doll
Cedar Wood puppet
Ghostbuster Frankie
I could pass on the Frankie really the others are a bit more troublesome to pass up.
>>5728733
All i really need is the 2pack and Cedar, desu. i dont care for the others
>>5728733
>SDCC 2106
They have exclusives planned that far out? Whoa.
>>5729027
UH.....I think it's a typo anon
Abbey's back, bitches!
Also, Deuce and a new Moanica doll.

What's she holding?
>>5729095
One of those party masks you hold with a stick. All the 'Welcome to Monster High' line dolls have them.
>>5717621
So i bought an elle eedee figure as my first fashion doll yesterday. I feel very embarrassed, yet love the detail in sculpting and the beautiful dress. Are there any other 20yr old males that like these here?
>>5729107
No, we're all ladies and faggots here.
>>5729114
Well, im bi, so does that count?
>>5729120
Being bi is pretty gay.
Not as gay as being homosexual, but still...
>>5729107
23 year old male here, I have a collection of 10 MH dolls but haven't bought any in a long time.
I'm a male too and I only have Catrine Demew
But her eyes are wonky...
>>5728733
More stuff about the SDCC DCSHG Katana
>HOLY SHIT SHE'S AWESOME!
>>5730310
More pics incoming
>>5730311
She has more bling than whole clan of ninjas
>>5730315
And her display box is great too
>>5729120
Is her hair supposed to be like that?
>>5730450
no. its supposed to be pulled into a tight ponytail
>>5729120
She looks like shit. you should be ashamed.
>>5730322
Holy fucking shit, that's awesome!
>>5730322
Here's a better view of the background in the box.
>tfw there are grown-ass people living in their parents' basement who collect these dolls

>>5730882
Jokes on you, i own my own house
>>5717796
The more I see of Ari, the more I wonder why they bothered with her. Her whole deal, as far as we know, is that she's been pretending to be a human popstar. I don't see why they're couldn't have done the same thing with Catty, or even Operetta. I would have been cool with Operetta being reinvented into a music star.
>>5731592
She's meant to be a doll representation of Ariana Grande in their world..
>>5731739
You dont see it in the face style? The name made me think it, but then the face sealed it for me.
>>5731862
Nope, sorry, don't see it. Though I have been repeatedly told I can't see the forest for the trees.
>>5729107
Male but raging faggit. Do I count?
>>5730535
I think of all the SDCC doll boxes we have seen so far. I think I like her overall design the best. Now I just need to sell a kidney or bribe someone to pick one up for me at the Con.
>>5732072
I love that they show a back and front view of the same scene. It's like a shot from a Kurosawa movie.
Anyone here know how I can make the pattern for Daring's vest? I'm going to try and fix his everything when I get the doll.
>>5732887
>Buy doll and remove vest from doll.
>Remove threads from vest so that you have several unsewn pieces of cloth.

The Draculaura and Moanica 2-pack is up for sale on Amazon: https://amzn.com/B01ARGBTXS
The stand-alone version of Moanica has also been spotted in stores in France.
>>5733104
I was under the impression that Darings top is all one piece, and the "vest" is just a scrap of fabric sewn on the bottom.
>>5729078
Well Abey's design went to shit. Wonder how much her original is going for.
>>5732887
Nothing can't be improved on this doll
this doll is a fail
Ever After High should have its general
>>5729078
I like that she has furry feet and (maybe) wrists. I was hoping they would do that after Marisol came out, since they're cousins and all. I'm really not thrilled about how she looks with the new face, though.
>>5734172
I feel you on the new moulding. I cant stand the glitter desu. I may end up doing some headswaps at some point.
Are the minis only at walmart atm? I found about two boxes at one store, then a set up at another - but nothing online except ebay. I got about six pieces and wanted to know if i could find em at toysrus cause i have some points on my rewards card to spend on them.
>>5734116
It gets less attention than MH most of the time, personally I'd rather have them in one faster paced thread than two slow ones.
>>5734516
I just want to know if it will be possible to give him some rooted hair. Have there been any pictures of him with the plastic cap removed?
![tumblr_nau24pcfPH1trccc2o1_400[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/7ViU4In.png "tumblr_nau24pcfPH1trccc2o1_400[1].png")
>>5734554
sauce?
>>5734554
>mfw when creepy guys fap on dolls instead of real girls
>>5734543
I fear it might not be a plastic cap, but just part of the head, like with most Ken dolls with molded hair. If the molded hair is its own piece, it can be removed and you can always play around with CaM wig caps to add him the missing scalp. If the hair is part of the head mold itself, there is nothing that can be done.
>>5734702
Wot u on about, m8
>>5717621
man I like Monster High fashion but the face of the girl in the OP really bugs me
>gigantic cat like eyes
>microscopic button nose
>huge perfect lips
>hollow cheeks
shit like this is why I hated my face when I was a kid I swear
>>5728251
It really depended on regions I think, I found a few, called my sister up to tell her and by the time she checked the next day they were gone and never returned.
>>5729078
Face game too soft, but that's how it's gonna be for everyone, so...
>>5731862
She didn't scream it, but now that I'm looking I can kind of see it?
Just bought a Bunny Blanc with the Netflix logo. Opened her and discovered she was missing her neckpiece. Then after extensive googling I finally found out that tge netflix versions are some kind of budget-cut dolls with missing accessories and paint.
Did I miss the memo? There seems to be very little online about comparing this bait n switch with the original releases.
>>5734702
Where do you think you are?
>>5735247
Didnt realize this, and now i need to check the one i have... The bate and switch photos that Mattel has up (the ones showing necklaces and other stuff that isnt on the doll when it runs through production) doesnt help at all with this stuff.
>>5734799
Just so you're aware, that's not official art of Moanica. It's from this fanart: http://azzzaell.tumblr.com/post/144362853336/moanica-dkay-from-welcome-to-monster-high
limited edition skelita in box. she's cute but after the LE collector draculaura she feels a bit lackluster
>>5735247
was she in the new packaging or the second release packaging? the new packaging that the dolls have gimps on the accessories.
>>5735761
and the back of her box
>>5734702
if it helps, im pretty sure the photographer is a chick
>>5735805
She always had one, just the markings on this one are white instead of black.
>>5735763
now I cant stop thinking that skelita must have died on the eve of her quinceanera
Anyone else notice that EAH no longer has "romantic interests" for their newer dolls anymore?
>>5735996
Since I never noticed it in the first place, no.
>>5735996
Good. ashlynn/hunter was a disaster
>>5719662
Yea totally agreed all the rest are cringey, besides if I'm not mistaken Froggy was one of the first??
>>5721269
Barbie, MH will fit btw, along with EAH just gotta ykno..put some effort in
>>5728251
Same here got her for 7.50 first and still my fav MH doll
>>5733706
Wtf are you even talking about?? She looks ten times better than all her previous dolls
>>5734172
New face?? Her face is the exact same you ducking dumbass the only difference is that are eyes are bigger and rounder??
When will all you adult MH/EAH collectors COLLECTIVELY shut the fuck up about minor changes???? Like srsly
>>5736135
I'm SO done with the bitching.
we're buying dolls made for 10 year olds.
They gotta chill or leave.
>>5736143
THANK YOUUU
God between Facebook groups and Tumblr I am SO done.
And I'm so done with people being like "Oh wait I guess I Do like them" OH REALLY BITCH, REALLY!?
Wow fucking surprised
They bitch about the dumbest fucking things too
"OMG THEIR EYES ARE BIGGER!? Less makeup!? NOOOO"
Yes bitch because 2010 Hot Topic Scene girl fashion is OUT, and looking like a dead hooker is OUT
>>5729078
Not liking the face-up but digging the fur. I might acquire one to try out a bodyswap.
![tumblr_o4vd11IqwF1r2wtkzo2_1280[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/1ZNtK7y.jpg "tumblr_o4vd11IqwF1r2wtkzo2_1280[1].jpg")
I didnt know that severe shellfish allergy was a faceup style
>>5736219
Ugh, what makes this extra awful is that the quality of work is really good. The artist is clearly skilled, just not at actually designing an attractive face...
>>5736171
Please shut the fuck up...the only thing different is the eyes what's there not to like?
>>5736227
This is really cute wtf is yalls problem
>>5735761
I have no idea which packaging belongs to which release. Here's the one I got.
![2AE782B600000578-0-image-a-2_1438100308504[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/ifIdPsf.jpg "2AE782B600000578-0-image-a-2_1438100308504[1].jpg")
>>5736232
Ok no.
she looks like she's one more crab leg away from looking like this
>>5735996
i noticed that with nina's box too. although you could tell with the later batches of dolls (darling, faybelle, bunny, alistair, justine, farrah, and melody) they started to phase it out. the only recent coupling that paired up was bunny and alistair. otherwise the girls all said they either weren't looking or hadn't met someone yet. it's probably mattel's way of saying girls don't need a boy in their life
>>5736115
>ashlynn and hunter
>not raven and dexter
>>5736240
that's the new packaging, unfortunately. the repackaged dolls in this version (this is like the third version, it's ridiculous) skimp out on the accessories unfortunately
>>5736229
Calm your tits, I wasn't even saying it was bad.
![tumblr_o8u37goamQ1vqduxmo1_540[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/KJUK5kK.jpg "tumblr_o8u37goamQ1vqduxmo1_540[1].jpg")
Some people need to just stop.
>>5736261
Is there any info out there on the differences? Tried googling but all I could find were some angry rants on amazon reviews.
I now know Bunny doesn't have her collar, and the tufts on her boots are no longer painted. Not sure if there's any other difference yet.
>>5736115
Ashlynn and Hunter are the least of anyone's worries. Raven and Dexter is what's absolutely shit.
>>5736245
>it's probably mattel's way of saying girls don't need a boy in their life
It's funny because even their new target audience does the shipping thing. I remember when I was 6 I used to pair up my barbies and Disney dolls and make stories of their lives and make them fall in love.
Aladdin x Sugarplum Fairy Barbie was my OTP.
Have you guys seen th tumblr that made a dick for Holt and painted a puckered asshole on him?
>>5736333
Links?
>>5736324
Same. The romantic adventures my Barbies had were fucking soap opera tier.
>>5736303
found my phone and took a picture of my original release bunny (ignore her hair, she came that way for some reason) for comparison purposes. outside of knowing that the re-repackaging got rid of details, i'm not sure what else
>>5736229
holy shit people can't have opinions??????
>>5736609
look at all the confession blogs, of course you cant have an opinion. especially if it's at odds with popular and polite opinion.
>>5736333
pls link!!!!!!!
G1 forever!
>>5736219
Creepy...
>>5735761
Adult collector?
What does it mean?
>>5736954
the adult collector dolls (sdcc dolls, LE draculaura, and skelita LE) means that they're meant more for collector purposes as opposed to having kids play with them
>>5736219
If you think this shit is bad you should look at some blythe customs.
>>5736379
>>5736565
My niggas.
I swear if a studio ever needed a plot for a soap opera, just give like 2-3 girls a shit load of barbies/disneys and like 2 boy dolls.
All this media backlash a female character getting a guy being unprogressive is nothing but unfounded shit. Little girls do that automatically and they love it.
>>5737537
I never understand why blythes are so popular?? They are the ugliest dolls (pre-mod and post-mod) that I have ever seen.
>>5739498
They're like a poor mans bjd.
you get your kawaiiuguu jap doll without the $500+ pricetag.
General question: Has anyone started to notice that anything 1/6 scale actually has more PoA if they are girls dolls now than boy's action figures. Does anyone know why this is a thing and why we can't get boy's stuff in 1/6 with any range of motion for not rape bucks? Kind of part of the reason why I like and collect MH?EAH stuff.
>>5739879
Large dolls for boys are for 4-6 year olds. MH / EAH target 10-15 year old girls.
Basically the younger crowd gets less POA since they do worse with it. Same reason why the budget dolls aiming at a younger crowd don't have elbows and knees.
>yfw the last few MH ComicCon exclusives have sold like shit
>>5740134
Pretty sure the GB Frankie will sell like shit too.
>>5736133
The face up doesn't click with me. It looks terrible to me as I liked the previous look better.
>>5736117
I think her videos go back to 2009 or 2010 so shes has been doing it for awhile.
Anyone know where I can get parts for a Wydowna? I picked up one for a buck that was missing a forearm & hand (fortunately not the hand with the yellow glove).
Is it possible that they might release a Daring in the future that won't look like ass?
>>5741353
You can probably just order them from mattel's parts catalog
>>5735333
Well that's a relief but the official art isn't much better.
>>5735865
If you actually read some of the diary and book stuff connected to Monster High. It can get very dark and depressing like the whole thing of Cleo's uncle backstabbing all of her family when they were alive. Which then forced them to become mummies and be entombed away for thousands of years.
>>5742085
And that is why Cleo will forever be my one and only MH waifu.
Found a few things at DD's today but I ended up picking up Viperine and Amanita. They also had Hat-tastic Maddie with playset, Way to Wonderland playset with Raven, A few Spectra's of various lines, and Fabelle. I did see two Bunny's earlier in the week but I didn't have any money then and she was gone. Hopefully next week they get some good dolls in or I'll just head to Ross or Fiesta. Maybe HEB.
>>5742409
True, but they usually give you more with it or the quality is high. Of course, this isn't always true. :/
>>5741575
Possible? Sure. Probable? No.
Essentially, unless they do a SDCC exclusive of him in some 2pack, we have gotten the only Daring we will get.
>>5741991

>i noticed that with nina's box too. although you could tell with the later batches of dolls (darling, faybelle, bunny, alistair, justine, farrah, and melody) they started to phase it out. the only recent coupling that paired up was bunny and alistair. otherwise the girls all said they either weren't looking or hadn't met someone yet. it's probably mattel's way of saying girls don
they are preparing the little girls to their future lives of "progressive" loneliness.
It looks like the New Signatures and WTMH dolls are showing up in stores. Good hunting.
>>5742983
>people will hunt for these
G1 forever.
>>5742409
well,when you go to the con, they're around $30-40 and looking at SDCC cedar, robofamily duo, and katana, that's not an outrageous price to pay. the quality is there, at least with cedar and roboduo. not sure about katana and ghostbusters frankie looks like crap anyway.
>>5743405
None of the new MH or EAH dolls have stands, even the deluxe ones. This should not be acceptable.
>>5743414
Why?
because it's too expensive?
>>5743647
Cost-cutting. You can buy stands from Mattel, but they'll no longer include them for free. It's the same reason most accessories no longer have painted details, and a lot of outfits are being reduced to printed-mini-dress-with-plastic-chest-piece status.
>>5743725
We Hasbro now.
>>5743725
little girls won't be pleased
>>5742645
kek, sad but very true.
>mfw Basic Toralei is 155 bucks new
>>5743832
Little girls probably don't give a shit. Which is how Mattel will get away with it. My Dragon Games dolls didn't come with stands, despite reviews saying they would. And I noticed they'd covered the original contents list with a new sticker that didn't list the stand, so I emailed Mattel and basically asked "sorry, but when did this change?"
I got no response to the question, but they immediately mailed me two stands.

the exclusive Frida Kahlo themed doll
>>5734702
we get it, you jizz on your dolls
>>5745557
...And that's the kind of doll that an ugly commie whore deserves.
Shots fired.
>>5745557
>>5746813
Actually Skelita looks kind of cool as Frida if done right.
>>5747693
Why is her mustache on her forehead?
>>5747700
>>5747704
>two mustaches
That poor woman.
>>5747706
And yet she was able to bed many men, many women, ...and Trotsky.
So picked up one of those 17" Giant Ghouls dolls the other day. My local K-Mart is closing, so I got her for 40% off at a cost of $21. Just too good to pass up.
I really love her! Her articulation is excellent for lewds. I'm just wondering if Matty is ever going to continue the line with moar dolls and extra clothes. Some shoes maybe? I haven't found any further info besides the four initial dolls & big EAH Maddie.
If Mattel decides to kill the line, I'm buying up the rest of the big girls. I may have to sew my own dresses. Are there even any dress patterns for these gals?
>>5747706
Eh, it's pretty typical of Latina chicks.
>>5747734
She was a freak in the sheets
>>5747750
Go to the BJD thread and ask about 17 inch doll stuff. I'm sure they will have some useful info.
This is probably a dumb noob question, but is it possible to put a wig on a doll temporarily? (ie without removing/shaving the hair underneath- just pinning it up like a person would when wearing a wig) What size wig might I need to buy to attempt this?
>>5736565
I made my barbies lesbians because my two Kens were ugly af
>>5748325
You'll need to measure their head, not all MH dolls have the same size head. I'm on mobile, so I don't have the site, but you can Google search for the approximate sizes.
>>5748716
Older Kens were pretty awful, weren't they? My uncle bought me a GI Joe one year for Christmas because he thought my Barbies needed a manly man.
>>5750087
What a based as fuck uncle. I bet those GI Joes were better than the average Ken doll.
>>5750495
>TFW if there cool ass 12" joes to collect that you could buy at similar cost to MH/EAH dolls. I would buy those.
This is why life is suffering and I buy toys aimed at girls.
>>5750087
I like the old Ken doll head. It's far more masculine than the newer "non-threatening twink boy" Ken dolls we have today. Sure, he looks a bit vapid, but so didn't Barbie back in the late 70's~early 90's and that's part of the era's charm.
>>5750495
>>5750635
We had Mattel's Max Steele and Hasbro's 12" GiJoe line back during the 1/6 scale Renaissance of the early 2000's. You can still find them fairly easily at thrift shops if you look hard enough.
Are we ever going to get an affordable MTM Ken at some point? I know the new Star Trek dolls have the MTM male bodies. That would be the closest thing to an affordable 1/6 male figure today. Kinda sad.
>>5741353
Just use Catty arms/hands
>>5750495
>I bet those GI Joes were better than the average Ken doll.
If it's a 60s body, or a late 90s-onward body, probably. The early 90s body literally was a crappy Ken body from some "sports action" male doll line they'd planned but cancelled, and they recycled the body for a rushed revival of 12" GI Joe. 50 POA plus soft elbow ratchets and rubber limbs, just terrible.
>>5750854
I like that Ken's face too. The new ken and barbie both look like utter shit.
>>5751428
That's because they change to reflect the fashion and beauty standards of the decade.
Does anyone know if Project MC2 dolls' clothes fit on MH or EAH dolls?
>>5743832
yeah i was gonna say what >>5745509 said. stands are something that collectors care about if they display. if younger girls collect then maybe but more often than not they won't take the time to put them back in a stand. like the epic winter dolls are advertised as having stands but they don't come with them. someone emailed mattel and they basically said "well you can buy them from our parts store!" shouldn't have to do that if you advertise them as coming with one.
>>5747750
possibly with gooliope, since she's going to be in the shriekwrecked line
>>5753929
>someone emailed mattel and they basically said "well you can buy them from our parts store!" shouldn't have to do that if you advertise them as coming with one.
Isn't that technically fraud saying an item has all those pieces but in reality they have missing accessories. Mattel should have a fraud department if not. Your state should have a fraud department call them and they should call Mattel that should get you all the stands you should ever want.
>>5754127
Not the first time either. Thenewest re-release of the original wave 1 ghouls were advertised as having brushes and stands on the box but only came with the stand.
Look on the top panel of the box on the left and you will see a picture of a stand and a brush.
>>5754282
weren't the re-releases also of inferior quality to the originals?
>>5754317
Yep. Only got the Draculaura one. You know how she had little buttons on her top? Now they were simply printed buttons on the top. A bunch of other stuff too, can't remember though.
>>5754336
Thank fuck i picked up her first re-release that was identical to her first.
Anyone have any luck in finding older dolls from around 2013 or so?
>>5754441
A toy store near me still carries Ghouls rule, Scaris, 13 Wishes and such so still easy. Who you looking for?
>>5754470
Ghouls Rule and 13 Wishes Frankie and Howleen.
Man, I decided to drop in TRU during my break and I scored huge. This Art Class Lala and Abby cost me six damn cents. I expected the guy at the register to adjust it to 75% the original price or something (which I would have been happy to pay) but he just gave it to me and asked if I'd seen any more.
So happy! My first Abby, and first Lala with a stand- my Frightseers Lala usually holds hands with Batsy or gets held by Gooliope. Hoping to score some more deals as Nu-MH starts replacing the originals.
>>5755584
that's a ridiculously good deal, i wish my TRU was as good as that. the only good score i've gotten was from one out in bufu that has LD maddie and dance class robecca
>>5755584
I fucking hate you right now. I wish any store near me had such a good deal. Best I have done was finding a near $30 doll for $10.
>>5755584
How'd that happen? Was it actually marked that price on the self for you to grab them? If this happens where I work it means the product has been recalled and not for sale.
>>5755979
but they'll sell them anyway. About 10 years ago TRU marked some in-demand video game strategy guides down to a penny each but left them on the rack to buy- I grabbed all of them and made a huge profit.
>>5755584
>Using a debit card to pay for six cents.
>>5756023
In this day and age, who is going to carry 6 pennies?
>daughter loves Monster High, has since she was 3
>hates the male dolls
>with a passion
>outright doesn't play with them and ignores them, which whatever, that's fine, I don't like them either
>has reached age 6, the age of drama
>specifically the age of fictional character's relationships drama
>but she doesn't like the male dolls
>so there's no one to have relationship drama with
>she puts it together on her own that girls can marry girls
>but she refuses to race mix them
>Skelita and Batsy are dating now because they're both Spanish, Howleen is dating her cousin who I can't remember the name of but the blonde one, you know the one, so on
>she's got little pairings in her room now of racially pure ships
I'm not sure where she got the idea that they have to be the same ethnicity/race, but, whatever, I guess. My daughter has discovered lesbians.
But I've got a quick question. She wants to marry off Jinafire, but she doesn't have any other Asians to marry her off to. Are there any other Asian MH or EAH dolls? I've been hunting but I haven't seen anyone but her.
>>5756789
Clawdia Wolf is Howleen's older sister, oh dear.
Kiyomi is Japanese from the Haunted line. Draculaura is also kinda Asian looking, especially the doll where she is in a kimono/yukata or whatever.
>>5756789
here
>>5756789
>okay with lesbians
>not okay with racemixing
Your daughter is my hero
>>5757055
>/pol/ still whining over a total non-issue
You really are like SJWs.
>>5757194
I thought jokes were supposed to be funny.
>>5756789
Needs an Asian type character to pair up.
>>5756810
>>5756997
Those seem workable options but why not go for something more out of the box.
>TFW Abbey is from the Himalaya so she's technically Asian too.
The fire and ice combo is a good dynamic too.
>>5757061
What is wrong with this pic? Why are yoy trying to mock those kind of people? I don't get it?
guys i need a little help, i have been trying to do some furniture, chair and table for my MH and EAH.
but i can't find the right scale for them to work, they always ended up too big or short. do you have some tips?
btw i think have been trying using a 1/6 scale.
>>5756810
>>5756997
>>5757141
>>5757532
Thank you! Draculaura is already dating Elissabat (..I know, I know.) but we don't have Kiyomi so I can definitely grab her. But Abbey is a super good idea too, so I can try explaining that she's technically Asian too and see how it goes.
Much appreciated, thank you!

I think the problem with some modders is that they don't go with the flow of what the dolls give you. I know a ton of bjd people would kill for a steampunk or centaur doll you could easily mod.
