Please share the link if you can/would like to. I mean to get her. Your comment and review reminded me of that. I would hate to miss out on her.<br /><br />I have affection for some underdogs, too ;-D D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-6491911320100386722013-08-08T21:11:36.079-04:002013-08-08T21:11:36.079-04:00My curiosity got the better of me and I shelled ou...My curiosity got the better of me and I shelled out the $15 for this set. The. Coffin. Wardrobe. Is. Fierce. Seriously, it is of high quality and just so strange. Whoever manufactured this should stop making cheap dolls and stick to creating awesome furniture. What you can't tell from the packaging is that the wardrobe has a pull out drawer and an extra hot pink skeletal hanger. The doll is cute and has better hair than I would have expected. Originally, I had planned to ditch her and keep the clothes et al. but there is something endearing about her face and I will probably keep her. A word of warning: my doll's left leg is askew at the calf, probably a result of the packaging, but I think I can right it with a few well placed rubber bands and a little time. Bottom line: totally worth my $15. Keep in mind that I love an underdog, and fell a little bit in love with this girl before even getting her home. j/a/s/o/nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01916391390343775924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-58855002493522115132013-04-21T11:55:33.321-04:002013-04-21T11:55:33.321-04:00The "Scary Couple" boyfriend is basicall...The "Scary Couple" boyfriend is basically the same as the "Cool Kevin" I just got (you just have to love the imaginative names), except he's paler with red hair and a bunch of tattoos.

Thanks for your comments.<br /><br />@MissSpottyJane, Heather, Ada, and Alan - wow, now that's great to know that she's a re-packaged Simba doll. Applause and thanks for the identification and the link! I have wanted a dark-haired Simba doll for a while. I did not recognize her under the JustKidz banner. <br /><br />@Ada - I have seen a blonde Simba doll in a narrow cardboard/plastic window box in Rite-Aid drug stores here so there are <i>some</i> Simba dolls in the U.S. (I will get a photo of that doll the next time I see her.)<br /><br />@Presto and Muff - hey, good luck getting her. She is also available online at <a href="http://www.sears.com/just-kidz-scary-fashion-doll-set/p-004W005658242001P?autoRedirect=true&sLevel=0&redirectType=SKIP_LEVEL" rel="nofollow">Sears</a>.<br /><br />@Muff - her arms remind me of the Maddie Mod vinyl arms and legs that were hollow with wire inside. Weird articulation, IMHO.<br /><br />@Cindi and Vanessa - I don't consider myself a "Goth" collector, but I am considering this set. I'll have to find her another body though. I don't care for that wobbly one she has. <br /><br />As for the coffin-wardrobe ... well, perhaps she can have a room designed around that ... theme? I have to ponder that ....D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-82393410176189425922013-04-18T13:29:24.677-04:002013-04-18T13:29:24.677-04:00I posted this on the Adult Fans of Monster High fa...I posted this on the Adult Fans of Monster High facebook page.

I thought she was interesting, but since I'm not into Gothic style dolls, I really didn't study her that much. Although I did purchase Carlyle and Esme from Wal-Mart a couple of days ago. I thought Moreville needed some "different" characters!
