Nice haul, turnbolt! The Ghouls Rule set looks awesome, as does the Monster High School playset (I kinda want 2 or 3 of those).
Anyway, after posting all the news above I decided to go on a MH hunt today. I spotted the Ghouls Rule asst. (sans Cleo for some reason - is former peg-warmer Cleo super desirable now, or absent from some cases?) and picked up Frankie & Draculaura (Clawdeens were all busted looking). I have to admit, higher price point considered, Mattel did this deluxe/collector's series justice. The design and detail in this set is stunning, spooky and festive for...Halloween? A masquerade? Whatever, these are easier to swallow at this price than the Sweet 1600 line was. Pretty nice for the monster fans out there.
I also spotted the Coffin Bean playset and Draculaura's Powder Room, but I'm waiting for the exclusive versions. Saw lots of the Werecat twins, nice to see they're popping up again! No sign of DDG or RD, tho I'll be passing on both. I did however go...a bit...CaM crazy...
It was kind of impulsive, and I'm still not sure if I'm going to keep them, display them or pop em open and snap em together, but seeing them all together and knowing the cool expansions in the pipeline, I couldn't pass em up today. No sign of the Werewolf/Dragon with both torsos though - is this happening? Is the Werewolf/Dragon pack shipping with both torsos now too like the Vampire/Sea Creature?
Oh and in the case I get certifiably customizable with all these guys and gals, I picked up a few of these on clearance at Target for little more than $5 - I hear they're perfect for the CaMs...
...and I picked up another Fear Squad pack in the event I rip open all those CaMs and stick em all in Monster High varsity gear. Could be cool, right? Idk...What should I do with them??Last edited by Harbingerboy; Jul 5, '12, 10:19 PM.Comment

I have only seen the Werewolf/Dragon with the one torso, but there is a rumor that the two torso pack is out.
Nice finds. I love the Puma Boy and Ghost Girl. The create-a-monster kits is what got us hooked. I got all of my stuff when it had a brief appearance on Amazon.com and TRU.com last week. Keep checking those site. They come back in stock frequently. Keep checking.Comment

Looks like Bratz is going to try to go after the MH market with their new line of Bratzillaz dolls.
Toys”R”Us is the leading kids store for all toys, video games, dolls, action figures, learning games, building blocks and more. C'mon, Let's Play!
Probably their most inspired looking dolls but I don't think they'll put a dent into MH and they still look like they have fish mouths.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...Comment

Because I'm indecisive, love packaging as much as the product, and generally can't do anything the easy way...I picked up some more CaM starter sets this week to play Frankenstein with. I've managed to stay away from these for so long with the reasoning that the line already has a Vampire, Sea Monster, Werewolf, etc., and with the addition of secondary family characters, I'd have plenty to display without cluttering shelves with nameless background/non-characters. That logic worked for a while. But these things are just so darned cool and really flesh out the Monster High student body when you stick them in school colors.
I'm sure they'll look great in the gym and halls of the Monster High playset, out now in areas other than my own.
Apparently the Werewolf/Dragon pack will be shipping with both torsos alongside the Mummy/Gorgon and Blob/Ice Girl packs.Comment

Wow!! They look great in the school colors all together. Nice pics.Comment

Thanks! Picked up the TRU exclusive Ghoulia w/Scooter set today, very cool. I didn't realize Sir Hoots-A-Lot came with too...
They also had the exclusive Powder Room w/Draculaura but the box was trashed so I passed, but picked up the rest of the Ghouls Rule line.
...and those darn DDG I said I was gonna pass on. It's a sickness. They do look cool MIB next to the last DotD wave though.
I managed to stick to my guns and pass on the roller derby wave though. For now. Aaaand one local target had the most recent fashion packs on clearance for $6 and some change if anyone's looking for those. All in all, a nice Monster haul...still no sign of the school playset in stores here though.Last edited by Harbingerboy; Jul 5, '12, 10:18 PM.Comment
