I think all the new items this year are my favourites so far, many great pieces and it's fun to see the line expand so much so quickly. This time last year we were hunting down the original four, now there's loads! Also have the Gloom Beach line but they are a bit boring so didn't bother rotating those pics on photobucket. The hydration station is lots of fun, it has a water layer that generates bubbles, not sure the photos really show how this works. It came with Laguna which was a bonus, and only the second I have of her compared to the hundreds of Frankies and Dracs, and now Ghoulias! At some point I want to do comparison pics of the different ones but couldn't really be bothered at the moment I'm afraid. I think Torelai might be next, shame to get another Cat person but ho hum. Operaretta keeps getting mentioned in the diaries too, she I would like to see! Hopefully SDCC will show more than the Feb toy fair!

Great selection of the guys and gals. So many costumes and looks! I only bought Gloom Beach Frankie but then she is my gal, and my reason for going near MH in the first place. By the time SDCC has passed I'll have 2 Frankies, 2 Ghoulia and Lagoona. I haven't counted Spectra cause I am still not convinced she'll arrive lol.

I'm grateful I stopped collecting Mattel dolls a few years ago or I'd be snatching every single one of these up! I adore dolls with peculiar-colored skin, not to mention all things horror. I think my favourites are Spectra, Lagoona and Dawn of the Dance Clawdeen. Such a great, drastic line! I'd love to see a 1/6 custom of one of the girls with regular proportions and a realistic face.

Loving the Torelai and Nefera at SDCC, not sure about the fan vote ones though. Only the headmistress appeals to me, the spider girl looks more like a Hindu goddess and the ghoul is just boring.

OMG I love Monster High! My sister and I collect them. I have all the normal issue girls so far and am going to get the varients soon too. My Abbey Bominable arrived yesterday, and Spectra the week before. People on eBay are paying so much for these two and I don't understand why as I just ordered them from my catalogue for the usual price....

SDCC Ghoulia looks awesome, can't wait for her to arrive.
Just got the school locker Ghoulia and Frankie, quite fun and at last they come with alternate clothing for new looks. Also got Dawn of the Dance Deuce, Cleo and Lagoona from Argos, apparently they are exclusive to them this time. Last year DOTD wasn't even released over here so glad we got them! Just Ghoulia to track down now gah! This seems to be the pattern...

Must people keep tempting me with this line!! ;D
They really are fantastic dolls. I love their beds. And Draculara's car!
The build-a-monster kits are interesting.

I wasn't keen on the create a monster packs, but now they come with two torsos it at least means you can make two dolls from a starter set.
I only wanted Deuce to begin with, but now it's become my favourite collection, just trying not to look too much at the school playset!!

Who is the doll with the long black cape dress thing and thick headband next to Cupid? She is awesome!

I believe she's the witch from one of the 'build-a-monster' packs.

It's partly a custom I made - dyed the wig with green highlights, and bought the dress off eBay. So you'll have to make one if you want one similar.
