Boxed In

So I've still been making up my mind about Cupid in the box or out and then I got someone new... or should I say some TWO new. Yes! I found the twins!!!

So I have decided to keep them, Cupid and Gloom Beach Frankie in their boxes. Good thing the boxes open easily though, I took some pics of all of them, the main box is open, but all of them are still tethered to their respective chunks of cardboard.

So first off Meowlody and Purrsephone

Out of the box.. sort of

Meowlody's Shoes.. Love the shoes

Then I took more pics of Cupid:

Welcome to my newest girl!

I have been agonizing about buying this girl for so long! Before Christmas last year she was on sale but I thought, no I better wait and then she went up in price for about 2 months, when at that point it just became super hard to find her. They put out a new line of the girls but I wanted this one. This single doll. The rest of the girls just don't speak to me, but Tristen, my lovely Tristen, totally does! I finally found the one I wanted at Toys R Us yesterday, and to make it better she was much cheaper than she had ever been! $15

She's a Moxie Teenz Tristen!

Hi!

She's very flexible, bends at the knees, arms, wrists, waist and upper torso

Knees

Arm and Wrist

Arm also bends backward just a tad much

Waist

Upper Torso

Also, her hair is a wig! So I can try that hair on my Monster High Create a Monster sets

With wig off - head is like a LIV doll

With wig

Ya know it was her pretty eyes that made me like her so much! She's got a very pretty face

Tristen likes Mina too. She says she's the big sis she always wanted :D

Mina says we should call Tristen Triscuit - ya know, like the cracker. Oh Mina, you know I'll do it!

Mina, Marina, Triscuit, and Tippy

Thank you Triscuit for coming home with me! I hope you enjoy your new family

LIVing Monster High

 I don't know why it took me so long to really think about it, but I have LIV dolls that wear wigs and the MH Create a Monsters have wigs... why not see if the LIV fit? Well - they do! It doesn't exactly work the other way around though. I'm not one to cut the pegs off the wigs, I think it helps them and since the MH:CaM have a hole in the backs of their heads too - it works!

The Heads:

Top of MH:CaM head - notice the nice square hole

LIV head - notice the nice round hole

The Wigs:

MH Wig - Long squared peg (don't fit on LIV head)

LIV Wig - Short round peg (Fits the square hole just fine!) 

The Girls:

Desiree in LIV wig I dyed pink

Back

The only issue seems that the girls with ears do have the
LIV cap cover them slightly. I have no issue with this as I'm not
really looking at the ears and the hair would cover it anyway.

I have also heard Moxie Teenz wigs will work, but I have yet to test this theory. I always wanted to get the Moxie Teenz Tristan doll, but the one I want is no longer sold in stores around here. Ah maybe I'll find a wig somewhere. As a plus I do know for A FACT that Moxie Teenz shoes fit Monster High dolls!!

Score! I got something new :D

I haven't really been paying too much attention to the Create a Monster kits from Monster High lately but one caught my eye as I was browsing though Target earlier today. A new kit!!! A witch and a cat girl! There are 2 bodies(yes count em TWO!!) but only 1 wig and 1 set of shoes. I have some of the add on girls so I threw a different wig on one of them :P

So since I could make 2 new girls I did!

Meet Desiree and Annabelle!

The witch is so cute! I named her Desiree

The wings are actually the wings of the bee girl
I just thought it looked cute <3

Love her green skin!

And cute little hat! Very adorable wig

The shoes are sooo cool!! Black cats,
the tail wraps around the ankle!

Then Annabelle the Cat girl!

I'm a rock star

Painted whiskers and clip on ears! Also the bee girl wig!

I got stripes and lookie a tail!!
Too bad Toralei's tail won't fit!

I stole the stand from Cleo the II - not like she's using it
Also the shoes are bee girl's...

On the back of the package there was an additional ghost girl add on AND a starter set of BOYS yes! BOYS also a boy add on! How cool is that?? Didn't see any of them in stock (I would have gotten them for sure) as this set was literally the last thing on the shelf! I can't wait to find more!!!
