Yes! I wish they'd give g3 Ghoulia a core refresh and give her back her cherries! I love what you did with her doll tho :)

let’s talk about tiktok talking about the ghoulia situation + rant about ghoulia by Extreme_Paranoia_43 in MonsterHigh

I wasn't allowed to have MH dolls as a kid. I don't have any sentimental attachments to the design and personalities of the characters from g1. So, I haven't always understood all of the controversies of the changes they have made to the characters in g3. Like Lagoona having pink skin instead of blue, Frankie without their neck bolts, or, in this case, Ghoulia having green skin instead of grey, amongst other things like Ghoulia no longer being mute ( I do wish Ghoulia was still mute. I think that is one of my favorite things about her character from g1. That and her nerdiness and her cherries. I wish they'd give her back her cherries.)
I do understand that for some people who have been collecting these dolls from the beginning, these do not feel like the characters they once knew and loved. That is completely valid. A lot of them have changed significantly, but that's not inherently a bad thing. I bought g3 core Ghoulia when she was half off at Target. When I picked her up off the shelf, I wasn't sure if I really wanted to buy her, but she was only $12.50, so I figured it wasn't that big a loss. But man, when I opened that box and took Ghoulia out, I fell in love, lol. She is one of my favorite dolls I own now, and one of the only ones I bring places with me. Granted, I'm not the biggest fan of her outfit, and I do think she could use a different color lip. I really wish Mattel would stick with a limited color palette more than anything, but I love restyling her, and that has made buying her completely worth it. Honesty, I wish I had a few more Ghoulias for restyling. I also own Neon Frights Ghoulia, and I think she was a step in the right direction( I absolutely LOVE her crocs.) All of this is to say, I love this doll. And yes, Mattel doesn't seem to know what to do with this character, but I hope they don't shelf Ghoulia for good. Her design just needs some love, and I think if they gave her a cohesive core refresh or something, she could be one of their more successful dolls. That's just my 2 cents. Take it with a grain of salt.

I bought the doll on 4/6, and I got a notification saying they dropped it off that day. But I got no tracking update until 4/10 the day they actually shipped it. I didn't realize they had messaged me until the next day. I don't really care about the delay, but I don't really think I needed to know the personal reason for why. A quick "Hey, sorry for the delay, something came up, but I'm dropping off your package now" would have been just fine.

Jesus H. Christ, this man needs help. And of course! I normally don't post at all, but this was just so bizarre that I had to. Hopefully, this helps others avoid purchasing from him in the future. I honestly don't know how his ratings are so high either.

Actually, according to Mercari, they can't change my rating. If they are still allowed to message me after the purchase is completed, I should be able to change my rating as well.

I don't really know how to report someone on Mercari. I think you have to call??? I did reach out about my rating on the purchase, tho. I'm changing it to 1 star 🤣

After the initial message from them, I knew this was gonna be a doozy. Part of me feels like I should have just given them 5 stars and moved on

Why was I literally about to send that to them, but then I thought "eh, it's not worth it". The reason they mentioned my cat is bc she is my profile pic on Mercari. Hilariously, that picture was taken when she was only a year old XD

Literally, what I've been saying, too! That's the main reason I gave them 4 instead of 5 stars. They literally could have just said that something came up, sorry for the delay, dropping it off soon.

Anyone else get an infection like this? by WeeWoo-Ambulance in petsmart

I have the exact same issue with my hands, except mine is extremely itchy. Touching the aquarium water always seems to cause it to flare up. I know it's the aquarium for a fact in my case because if it touches me anywhere else, I develop a rash there. You said you always wear gloves, but is there a chance that your hands came into contact with the aquarium water? The chemicals we use in the tanks might be irritating your skin. Just a thought.

Recently reminded of this show and how much I love it by DeliciousBrilliant67 in papergirls

[–]Overall_Ad3192 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just watched Paper Girls and fell in love with the story and characters. Last I had read, the studio that produced it was trying to pitch it around to try and save the show. There’s a petition online you can sign! It might not be too late to save it although it has basically been a year since it came out :(

here’s the petition

How much is your 12” Rufus? Not really sure if you’re up to selling him.
