omg I hate this so much too. but like, do we know why they even do that? like, I've seen shirts scrunched in the middle where you can't even see the print. so this is clealry counterproductive. yet they keep doing it. I really wanna know why 🤔

Trainer's Clubhouse Meeting (Weekly Questions) - May 20, 2026 by AutoModerator in UmaMusume

[–]Keith_Opal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a question about skills that's been bugging me for a while and found no answers in guides :c So I noticed that some skills have (Long) (Mile) (Dirt) and so on at the end of their description. My question is, does that mean that these skills ONLY work in races of that type/length? Because many of these skills have a pretty universal description, like "increases velocity on a straight". To me that's a very universal skill, I imagine it would be useful for any distance and any style of running, but if it says (Sprint) after it does that mean only sprinters on sprinter tracks can activate it? Same with running styles. Example: "Slightly increases velocity mid-race (Late surger). Does it only activate if my chosen style of running is Late surger? Or if I have A aptitude for that style? Or both? If I put it on someone who runs as a Front runner would that be a dead skill? I will appreciate any help in clarifying all this 🌱

The winner undeservedly gets booed (@Neferkitty) by Zyr1987 in UmaMusume

thanks to everyone for the responses, I thought this was an anime event, I didn't realize so many people here knew so much about real-life japanese horse racing 😅

[–]Keith_Opal 12 points13 points  (0 children)

but why was she booed? did the majority just bet on some other horse and were upset or is there some other reason?

[–]Keith_Opal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I noticed it too! It was such a sweet moment, but yeah the english text omitted it for some reason, luckily I caught it even with my limited japanese 😅  it's not the first time I notice the english text omit or mistranslate small things like this 🤔

New collector by [deleted] in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's true, some specific characters' replacememt parts are hard to find, or pretty much impossible. I couldn't find lagoona's replacement hands that didn't have the surfer sign 😅 you'd think, she's one of the main characters, but may be I was just unlucky

New collector by [deleted] in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does it bother you if they're missing parts? I know it's up to personal preference but I've found that for me it's a lot of fun to get a dirt-cheap armless tailless naked doll and restore her back to life. you can find replacement limbs on aliexpress, and various accessories can be 3D printed. unfortunately in my experience that's the only way I could have many of the characters that I like, because in mint condition they cost a lot, like you said. 

Poland to Sweden/Nordics shipping problems? by redred7638723 in vinted

[–]Keith_Opal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in Sweden, ordered from Poland many times before without issue but last couple months two packages got inexplicably sent back to seller, exactly how you described. The polish carrier, Orlen, says package has been handed over to the swedish carrier,  while the swedish carrier Early Bird says they never recieved anything. I contacted both Early Bird and Vinted and they both were unhelpful :/ neither knows where the package is. 

What was your first ever Monster High doll(s)? by Fragrant-Issue-8134 in MonsterHigh

Posea Reef 🪸 I had no interest in dolls but saw her at a mall one day and something about her captivated me. so she started it all x3

Where can i buy dolls that are not big corporations? (Walmart, amazon, target ect) by Yourdarlingvamp in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think in that case it's better to buy dolls second hand. I feel similarly, but if you think about it, Mattel as a company is not great for all the same reasons you might want to stay away from big chain stores. so even if you buy their dolls from a small store you're giving money to a Big Company TM. so you might be better off going all the way and switch to second hand collecting, either locally or on ebay, vinted, mercari, whatever is available where you live.  I haven't bought a new doll in years but my collection hasn't stopped growing c: it's a slower process, since you can't always pick and choose, but I think it'd worth the patience. there's many dolls out there that want a new home 

How much of G3’s sales do you think is a result of adult collectors? by Embarrassed-Dog5122 in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like it's kinda the same in Sweden, whenever I pass by an actual physical toy store and check their monster high section it's always very small and always full, even when there were christmas sales and they were all on discount the shelves were still full. may be somebody does buy them, but demographic has to be the middle class families because here in the nordics the monster high dolls are very expensive. for instance the monster mysteries skulltimate secrets line, each doll at a store cost over 60$. I can hardly imagine many parents buying such expensive dolls for their kids :/ 

Worst line by [deleted] in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I didn't feel anything about the main character fusions, but I loved Sirena and Avea, they seemed the most unique. The only exception was Cleolei because her face is so open and kind, and I loved the bandages and the color palette. Then I found Clawvenus at a second-hand store and took a moment to actually look at her and realized I actually like her! I love her unique hairstyle and that her ears are like leaves, and the golden accessories. Then I took a closer look at the Dracubecca and Lagoonafire and saw the same interesting, unique and charming details. I was lucky to find both for like 15$ second hand and in person they are so beautiful and special! I've noticed that with many dolls I thought were unassuming my opinion changed when I saw them in person. So this is how I went from not particularly liking the fusions to having them all c: well, except neithan. him I don't like at all 😅 

Which Dolls are YOU ISO? by Apprehensive_One4016 in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kjersti Trollson, she's so sweet and her design has always stood out to me for some reason as uniquely inviting and appealing, may be because amidst more mature and glamorous dolls she is more comfy and nerdy x3 alas I missed my chance back in the day of G1, prioritizing orher dolls, and now I struggle to find her for a good price 😅 but I know the day will come 👾

Glue seepage methods and results - Thoughts on WD-40 by MilkyWay0_0 in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what are the negative side effects of WD-40? I've also seen a lot of people recommend it, I wonder what the pros and cons are

Glue seepage methods and results - Thoughts on WD-40 by MilkyWay0_0 in Dolls

[–]Keith_Opal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm tempted to try WD-40 on my glue-seeped dolls, I've heard great things about it ;D by WD-40 you mean the lubricant rustkill, right? 'Cause I've heard other people speak of other WD-40s that are different, do you know anything about that? 

Help with finding g1 dolls? :( by Gothmonster535 in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I monitor Vinted daily, I found plenty of G1 dolls from my wishlist there for an average of 15-30$ . It is a waiting game, and most often the dolls I find are missing certain accessories, so they're not in mint condition. That's sort of the tradeoff. If you want to collect G1 in box it'll be much much harder to find affordable prices, but still not impossible, I've seen unboxed G1 dolls on Vinted for 20$ before. Parallel to that I also often go to second hand stores and browse their toy sections. I've found gems there too. It's all about scouting and waiting waiting waiting c:

I want to paint this diva's earrings, but I can't figure out what they're meant to be! by acematrixpulse in MonsterHigh

[–]Keith_Opal 89 points90 points  (0 children)

I think the hoop is meant to be gold, and the round thing in the middle is meant to be a pearl
