I saw the new Fashionistas single fashions.

And I didn't buy any. I looked at the leopard one for a while, but there are so many good playline dolls coming out right now, I have to budget.

The Christmas rush is officially on.

People of all shapes and sizes are trying to find the perfect gift for that special someone.



















I hope he found what he needed.

2010 Frankie Stein is finally mine.

Thanks to the Target sale a few weeks ago, I was able to get the first edition Frankie, for her clothes. I feel like half the stuff I buy these days ends up in my sales box. I'm fine with only having one Frankie doll, Gloom Beach is my girl.

Giant toys on the bottom shelf

These make me feel a bit guilty, just looking at them. They seem so excessive.

Cinderella finally got a carriage, I wonder if any of the other princesses will get giant accessories.

22" Giant Bratz Wal-Mart exclusives

I don't remember when these two dolls showed up, but they're still hanging around, after most of the regular dolls have sold.

The outfits seem very simple for $35 dolls.

Jakks Pacific Disney fairies

These are so bright and pretty, especially the extra fashions. I love looking at them, but I can't justify buying them, since the clothes are already ragged at the edges. Maybe parents feel the same way, the dolls never sell.

Queen Clarion caught my eye, she seems to be a grownup fairy.

10-10-10 Bratz Tyla

Tyla's outfit isn't that great, but I like the doll. There are a handful of other 2011 Bratz I would like, but I have no idea if I'll ever find ones with good face paint. Most stores got one or two cases and never restocked anything.

10/10/10 Bratz Shadi

Wal-Mart put out a "new" case of 10/10/10 Bratz, and I was finally able to get Shadi. The eyes aren't perfect, but I'm happy just to have one.

Her hair is terrible quality, though. It's the worst hair I've ever encountered on a doll. Blegh. I think it's nylon, but worse quality than both Dollyhair and Katsilk sell.

Her beautiful turquoise and hazel eyes remind me of Yellowstone.

Her fashion is simple, but actually fashionable.




Kid Connection created the cloniest clone giftset ever.

These girls are clone dolls in more ways than one. Behold the Princess clone giftset, featuring Snow White, Belle, and the same exact blonde doll four times over.

Kid Connection is Wal-Mart's store brand, but I suspect Chic Boutique is behind these. $19.99 seems like a lot for clones, parents might as well buy 2 or 3 real Disney dolls instead.

Snow White isn't too bad.

Kids can't get enough Monster High.

The Wal-Mart nearest me can't keep new Monster High dolls on the shelf. The Halloween display only lasted about two weeks, now it's picked over except for a handful of things. The non-Halloween costumes don't seem to be going anywhere. The regular wigs are worse quality than the Halloween ones, go figure.

I wanted to get all my MH dolls before the Christmas rush started, but sloooooooow local stores foiled my plans.
