Monster High and Bone Chillers

[ericadawn16]

I found something else to tempt my savings.

Monster High

In typical Scooby-Doo fashion, Monster High is populated by the progeny of classic monsters: Frankenstein's Monster, Dracula, the Mummy, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, etc. The products include books, nail polish and dolls.

I thought they looked cool but this is way better.

It's so...Gaiman-like. Unfortunately, there are only three: Frankie Stein, Draculaura and Clawdeen Wolf.

The website has activities where you become a student and get your class schedule based on your personality. Normally, I like cartoons but the teases of live action in the advertisements and this music video leave me wanting more.

I understand that it's much cheaper to draw the cartoon but the live action reminds me of Bone Chillers. Does anyone remember Bone Chillers? With Esteban Powell and a unknown Linda Cardellini as a Goth girl? I even read some of the books at the time. Of course, it only lasted thirteen episodes.

I need to go to ToysRUs to ogle in person!!!

So far, Draculaura is the only one I actually own because I got my mom to buy it for me. Lagoona is the character they gave me when I took the personality test which is funny since I've always thought of myself as a water baby.

Holt Hyde kind of reminds me of a blue-skinned Oz.

Have you done any of the online activities?

I've grown surprisingly fond of those Monster High dolls too. Probably because I love classic monster movie monsters.

My favorite's Draculaura. ♥

Yeah, my mom said, I will buy you one and I picked Draculaura because she seemed to be the best both in color combination and detail. However, did you see the links on the previous comment? I might have to save up for Lagoona. I love monsters, always have...I'm going to blame A Pup Named Scooby-Doo.

Also, I think you'll be interested in my newest entry.

I'm seriously thinking about getting one or three of the fashion dolls one of these days. They're pretty inexpensive, and I think it'd be fun to make clothes for them to keep my inner crafter occupied. :) The rag dolls are craaaazy cute, though.

If you make clothes, please post pics.

Sure!
