I've been out of the MH scene for a good long while, but I was in Wal-Mart today and found a pile of dolls marked down to 7.00... I was eyeing the Draculaura and then I found this poor sad Scarah whose box was all crushed. Arm popped out of the socket, hair visibly messed up, just in a bad state. Wish I'd gotten a before pic.
I got that "oh nooo she needs RESCUING!" feeling, LIKE YOU DO, and picked her up. Her hair ended up being in such poor shape I just lopped most of it off and spent ages washing the glue and gel out of the rest, then stripped her face. I was initially disappointed with her sculpt when I did that--I prefer more delicate, girlish looking faces--but she's growing on me, especially after I got her out of her stock outfit (oh god, she was SO stained underneath--I had to gently sand off the worst of it but some of it is permanent). I'll be trying to give her up a faceup and maybe blushing tomorrow, weather permitting MSC usage.

Here she is, hair still wet. I am thinking maybe closed eyes on this one--her eyes are really, really large (says the Blythe fan).
IDK if I'll keep her or not but I very well might, depending on what I end up doing with her face. If her hair were solid black I definitely would--not a neon green fan, lol.
