    nice. my daughter loves these. we just finally snagged Draculaura's dragster. it is pretty cool although a tad pricey on TRU.com at 34.95. would porobably make a cool custom Batmobile if you sanded down all the girly design and repainted it.

    i had gotten Abbie for both my daughters for Christmas on Target.com for 12.99 each. then after Christmas I was looking on amazon and they were going for like 60.00 each. also the CC Dead fast doll and the dead fast figures from comic con were going for over a hundred on amazon. i said to my wife i should have just sold them and gotten the kids something else...LOL

      Somebody should figure out how to mold the build-a-monster torso and cast a bunch of them.

        these are definitely going for crazy money now. Not necessarily these exact dolls, but whatever is new and just released commands some serious online premium. I was looking at some custom stuff with my daughter and one of the sellers also had made sales on some of the newer dolls. $75 bucks for Operetta??? 3x the money. Wow. No wonder the scalpers are all over this stuff - and no wonder there are none in my local stores.

        I wonder how long the interest in lines like this last. It is barely over a year old - is that correct?

          Mattel Just needs to release a Torso/Arm/Thigh body and sell it for 6to9 Bucks in like 10 Different Colors.

            Still no sign of Toralei, but I found Operetta & Nefera yesterday (from the look of it, that case breakdown is 2 x 2011 Cleo; 2 x Nefera; 2 x Operetta). Great additions!

              I just found out that Cupid was a WM exclusive??
              Also found that you can search local area WM stores for their stock of this doll and have them hold it for a pick-up.

                  I walked into WM with my receipt for a pre-ordered Cupid and walked out emptyhanded 'cos someone had made a pre-order for more than they had in stock and I was automatically booted and refunded.

                  The resellers are crazy on this line. Count yourself lucky if you walk in on a fresh restock.

                    I did, I was blown away and grabbed what I could. These figures are going for insane amounts on ebay. I heard there are more new figures on the way very soon...

                      if you just wait the supply eventually catches up to demand....after 2 -3 newer waves have come out, and then you can find stuff again. i refuse to pay the scalper prices on ebay or amazon.

                            I checked the flyer and all walmarts within 50 miles.... Out of stock. Why on Earth put something in the flyer when you don't have it????

                            Thanks for the heads up, that was cool!
