Mattel has come out with a new line of Barbies for kids. They’re called My First Barbie, but what’s different about them is that they’re actually a bit bigger than a normal Barbie. A normal Barbie is 11.5 inches tall, whereas the My First Barbies are 13.5 inches tall. The body of the dolls are now soft touch bodies, and they are meant to be easier for little hands to get them dressed and change their outfits. There are also a few fashion packs that are sold separately.
Elvira, the Mistress of the Dark, now has her own Monster High Skullector doll, that was released on Friday the 13th in January. I was late to the news, and didn’t find out until later, but if you managed to get her, she’s definitely a fun doll go add to your collection. And the box display just adds to the fun (last picture).
Monster High have released another howliday edition doll, like the holiday themed Draculaura, but this time it’s a Valentine’s Day two pack of Cleo and Deuce. It features the more original looking monsters, as opposed to the new generation of them that you see in stores today. If you look closely, you’ll notice there’s even a skulette shaped box of…ahem, chocolates, that look like a spider web, scarab, and a coffin. And a Valentine’s Day card, saying Be My Creepy Valentine, to go along with the chocolates, flower and balloon. Now if that’s not monster love, then I don’t know what is…
Happy Valentine’s Day, to all the doll lovers out there!
I was going to share a cute doll related Valentine’s card, but I came across these and they were too cute not to share. If you haven’t heard of them, they are the Na! Na! Na! Surprise dolls, which are cloth dolls, or mostly cloth dolls, that are both printed and embroidered. These ones have a conversation hearts candy kind of theme. The collection is called Sweetest Hearts.
Hey guys and gals, our meeting will be on February 26th, at the Salisbury House on 787 Leila Avenue. The meeting starts at 1:30, but the room is available to us at 12pm. If you’d like to order something to eat, just remember to come early so that your order is in by 12:45 at the latest to avoid disturbing the meeting.
We hope to see you there!
And if you got a new doll from a special someone, or a galentine, or maybe even one you got yourself for Valentine’s Day…bring them in, we would love to see them!
