    Monster High

    I have admired these ever since they started making them. Then all of a sudden they came up in conversation with my teenage girl a few weeks ago. She's a big fan so needless to say any excuse to start a collection I have been collecting her Fav's the past few weeks and some of the new releases to give her for christmas. The one thing I have hated with these companies is how they release these figures in limited quantities in obscure places... Well some not so obscure... But none the less they seem to miss the Big Apple.
    Long story short I'm looking for the newest releases without having to hunt e bay and amazons 3rd party sellers. Any help from my fellow Mego Brethren would be greatly appreciated.

    The group are Monster High Frights Camera Action Hauntleywood
    Elissabat
    Clawdia Wolf
    Honey Swamp
    And Viperine Gorgon

    Thanks guys and have a great Holiday Season!

    Bumping this up. It looks like they hit target in the big apple but seem to have flew off the shelves, was to be expected, the online in store tracking is a mess and totally not accurate as to what is in store, once again being the holiday season to be expected. Any help on obtaining these guys would be great. I managed to get the Clawdia wolf doll so just looking for
    Elissa Bat and Honey Swamp.

      good luck, the new releases are always hard to find in stores, scalpers scoop them up as soon as they hit shelves. I managed to find the Headmistress for my daughter for Christmas but have not seen any of the ones you mention

        I'm waiting for Monster High stuff to start ending up on garage sale tables. Then I'm going to buy it up like crazy. I already found a first wave OPERETTA MISB at a yard sale for $2.00 and sold it for $40.00 with free ship.

          I have not seen these in the store yet, but with the holidays they are probably flying off the shelves.

            I hit a couple of cases of the storybook figures on black friday at target. They must have been old cases. I sold all of them in sets pretty quick.
            It's not a doll it's an action figure.

              I said I would wait till these hit garage sales and BAM! Today at the local thrift store:

              12 of them in $2.99 and $3.99 bags.

                  I was doing a pretty good job of keeping up with Monster High until this fall, then I had to throw up my hands and yell uncle. I like this new Hauntleywood line.

                    Same here, I kinda checked out with the overwhelming amount of character variants and rehashes of monsters we've seen before (even though there are some great looking designs in Hauntleywood). The upcoming 3ft tall Catacombs playset definitely has me excited though! The Freaky Fusion concept not so much.

                      Honey Swamp seems pretty poorly-designed, or perhaps uninspired is a better term--esp. since Venus McFlyTrap is so distinctive.

                      ...Why has Mattel not done the beastly guy from the Gloom Beach cartoon?
                      WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.
