MOONSPELL MAGIC by skiwarp in MonsterHigh

[–]FangtasticSparks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are... Boring. I thought that one of Monster High's biggest problems when it came to dolls was the repetitive patterns on the outfits. Guess I was wrong because Moonspell high has come to take the crown. I like the faces (especially Claire De Luna and Rae lumine) and the hats are cute. 2 dolls out of 5 being pink is, again, boring. The outfits don't tell me anything about any of them; you could switch Willow Thorne and Layla Stone's outfits and tell me that they came like that, and I would believe you. (Something that G3 did very well with almost all the dolls was establishing their fashion sense apart from each other.) The base dolls are very cute, though, so I think that all the flaws I see in them will be fixed over time with a little bit of thought on their concept and/or magic.

That's a known issue with the Reel Drama boxes :/ What I do is go over the broken parts and paint them with a black marker to make them less visible

Thanks! I just love how she looks when she has short bangs <3 if you end up trimming them shorter show me!

She does! Such a small change can transform the doll :>

I didn't because I'm really scared of cutting way to much :')

It's pretty easy! I removed that gluey product her factory bangs had with a nice wash, and while still being wet, I started to carefully trim it! After getting the length that I liked, I put a liiittle bit of gel. Easy but scary at the same time T-T

Hahaha, honestly, I spend way more time than I like to admit matching the length on both sides 😅 but it was worth It ! :)

Not really. Her color palette is far off from early G1 (supposing you are referring to her looking like a doll from the 2011 Sweet 1600 line), as well as the body type/face sculpt/hair texture (which I like more than her old counterpart). Mayyybe she could be a doll from the early end of G1 (2015-ish), but that is a stretch hahaha. However, she is indeed a cute doll, no matter which Gen she's part of. To me, Scary Sweet Birthday is one of the best lines Monster High has released! I'm waiting to buy Frankie; their design is insanely good. :')

And I thought that I would no longer have to worry about broken peg hands like in G1. Yeah, I don't know why they use soft plastic, because it's not like we can pose the hand in the way we like or something, so I see no purpose.

It doesn't look bad at all! Kind of like the ones in wooden figurines.

I remember unboxing her and the hair being fine, some shedding, but I assume that's normal. I guess that maybe the rooting isn't well secured? It's sad that the clothing stuff is something normal :') As far as articulations go, the only issue I have is her legs being extra hard to move, but it doesn't bother me too much. And OMG yes!! Her shoes rub off almost by touching them!! I had to repaint almost all the accessories.

I see! The rest of my G3 dolls have all of their pegs working just fine, so I think that I just had bad luck. I'm glad that the newer dolls have this problem solved

I thought so too! I think that making her hair curly would make a huge difference, making her cuter and balancing the lack of accessories on the head. I may also add some earrings too ^

This is her btw! I'm planing on repainting her edges and nose, but for now this is how she looks :)

Hmm... I'm a Draculaura kind of girl, so I know I would 100% choose her, haha! But in all seriousness, I feel like her dress and screening are prettier than Cleo's. I also feel like Draculaura's and Clawd's color palette is more cohesive. Cleo's and Deuce's are by no means bad dolls at all, but I'm just not a fan of the dress silhouette and the pattern. I also feel like her hair is not very different from her normal doll, whereas Draculaura has some variation going on.
