Neon's A Doll A Day Challenge 2018

[GreysPrincess]

I'm not active on MHArena anymore. Once I got into Pullips I got kind of single-minded and ended up spending pretty much all my time over here.

I really love that Howleen. I'm such a sucker for pink and blue hair!

[Miss Edith]

more beauties <3 Who is the Clawdeen in #35 please? Love her.

I checked ebay briefly, the set of Cleo & Ghoulia in the tombs is out of my price range. The other set I have looked at occasionally - Ghoulia & Sloman (?) is also priced over my head. sigh. More looking at pretty pix <3

[davidd]

More stunning figures, and more stunning photos!

The Draculauras, in particular, are especially lovely!

The Clawdeen Wolf photo is rather funny in relation to a conversation about Clawdeen a few of us were having last week.

[neon_jellyfish]

Thanks everyone!

Day 35 is Boo York, Boo York - Frightseers Clawdeen dressed in 13 Wishes Clawdeen's outfit.

In case anyone's interested, day 45 is Skull Shores Draculaura in 13 Wishes Draculaura's outfit.

The Clawdeen Wolf photo is rather funny in relation to a conversation about Clawdeen a few of us were having last week.

A mystery to solve! I'm off to find that thread!

Oh, but before I go, here's another serving:

[Miss Edith]

davidd, I had the same thought The photo looks much more as I imagined her than that rather OTT descripition

Neon, I apologise but it was 35 I wanted to know. I am hoping she is one doll with own clothes on because she is lovely.

[neon_jellyfish]

But I did answer day 35? It's above the quote... Day 35 is Boo York, Boo York - Frightseers Clawdeen dressed in 13 Wishes Clawdeen's outfit. I just mentioned day 45 because it's also a redressed doll, so it might be confusing.

Couldn't find the Clawdeen discussion! Link please!

I apologise I got my numbers mixed up.

In your latest lot my favourites are two of your favourites - the flock of Abbies & day 58 steampunk mad hatter - I love the doll always but your photo has something extra

[davidd]

More Draculaura photos! The "Collectors Edition" is such a spectacular MH release!

The "Day 46" version with the wings is one of my favorite Lala releases, too! I have one stashed away somewhere. I wish I had kept her mint-in-box.

Your Pullip photos have me thinking about adding to my Pullips rather than thinning the herd, which is what I have been thinking about doing. The steampunk thing is hard to resist.

[neon_jellyfish]

No worries, Miss Edith! And thank you!

@davidd Teehee, I love enabling other people! I also love everything steampunk, so I want to 'catch 'em all'

I want to catch up fast, so now I'll post 1/2 of March instead of 1/4, sorry for the long post!

I did not realize there had been so many versions of Monster High Rochelle!

I love the studio-like quality of the lighting in your figure photos.

Okay, now I have a nosy question unrelated to your photos. Feel free to ignore me. I see that the books in the World Book Day photo have titles in what I assume is Czech. And you indicate that you live in the Czech Republic. Yet your English... or at least the way you write (or type) in English... comes across as totally typical colloquial American English... with excellent punctuation and grammar. Are you actually a native English speaker living in the Czech Republic? Or is the English language instruction in Eastern Europe simply miles ahead (okay, kilometers ahead) of the foreign language instruction in the US?

[neon_jellyfish]

Oh my! *blushes*

Yes, the books are in Czech, and I'm Czech, and my English is actually pretty terrible - my passive knowledge is OK, and I manage to put shorter posts together without dictionary, but whenever it comes to eressing more complex thought than 'that's a pretty doll', I spend incredible amount of time trying to pull it off. But thank you!

And Rochelle has even more releases, I don't have them all.

ETA: I almost forgot to use this post to sneak in the rest of March photos!

Your English and your dolls are beautiful

I've never really been a MH fan, but your pictures are really stunning!

[Miss Edith]

more beauty my favourites are 63, 71, 77 & 81

[davidd]

Oh, Lagoona! Original issue Lagoona Blue was the figure and character that made the Monster High line a "must have" for me. I seriously thought I could settle for buying only two, Lagoona and Draculaura. Yeah, like that was realistic! First Wave Lagoona remains my favorite, I think.

That's a nice selection of Jane Boolittle figures. I especially like the Ghouls' Getaway version. I have one that I was planning to leave in the package, but she looks so good in your photo that I am tempted to debox her.

Your photos of all these characters are great, and they seem to be getting better as the year progresses.

[Alliecat]

Wow, what a collection! You have some lovely portraits. So, dumb question because I'm just not familiar with MH (I've only seen or recognize a few of these), but are all your girls stock or have you re-rooted or customized any?
And yeah, your English is excellent.
