Yes, Harbingerboy ROCKS! :) No sign of VM or RS, but we've been seeing the GR line and the scooter/rooms and a handful of the Roller Maz and DDG and Scary Tales...but none of the exclusives.

Hey guys and ghouls, don't be surprised if you see a Dot Dead Gorgeous wave 2 soon (or possibly another 3pack) as Frankie, Cleo & Clawdeen all appear in DDG attire in the upcoming DDG themed webisode.

Spotted the school playset at K-Mart today (as well as the Roller Maze Ghoulia/Abbey 2pack) and was surprised to see it for only $85 when it is $99 at TRU, K-Mart is often as expensive if not more so. And speaking of Roller Maze...I wonder if we'll se a 5pack of reissues (Frankie, Lagoona & Operetta) with the Clawdeen we saw at SDCC (who is supposed to be in revision cases soon) and a new Draculaura, whose Roller Maze design has been seen in promo art...

Fun bit of variant news...Robecca is showing up with a variation in Captain Penny's backpack - some are painted black and some are copper (unpainted), same as body color. I hadn't noticed until others started pointing it out online. After checking, my MIB Robecca has a Captain Penny with a black backpack, but my loose Robecca's Captain Penny has a copper/unpainted backpack. Not significant to me, but kinda interesting to note. No idea which is more prevalent, but from reports they seem pretty evenly distributed thus far.
none of 'em are evenly distributed around here. MH shelves around here typically look like they were hit by a bomb with only a few 1600 figures hanging around to clean up. The kids and I hit about 4 stores over the weekend hoping to find something and came back bupkis.
Can anyone tell the difference?...

Weird...new boxes they move the Ghouls Rule logo!
Yeah the new Ghouls Rule boxes (on top in above pic, Frankie on right in below pic) look much better IMO and are similar to Wal-Mart's Abbey (who I didn't even notice was in a newly modified box). When I first picked up a set of Ghouls Rule (my first set is on the bottom in the above pic) I was puzzled by the giant sticker slapped onto the front bottom corner, seemingly an afterthought. They made the boxes look weird to me. The rest of the design was nice, but I thought the upper left corner was also...missing something...and that sticker was such an eyesore. With the dolls shipping now Mattel has remedied the design issues, getting rid of the huge ugly sticker on the bottom front and placing the Ghouls Rule logo appropriately in the top left corner! Other modifications include the addition of a pop-out blurb stating "Check out the scary cool costume I wear in the movie" and the addition of "Daughter of Frankenstein/etc." under each doll's name, which was oddly absent on the prior releases.

Anyway, I guess I'll return my first releases now. :silly:
Probably not rares, but just picked up 6 of the MH girls for my daughter at Krogers clearanced out at 3 bux each. Seemed like an awesome deal to me. Target also had some outfits for 2.50.
