Monster High Ghoul Spirit Venus McFlytrap

Hello World! I am back for another Toy Review. This toy the Spotlight goes to Mattel's 2014's Monster High Ghoul Spirit Venus McFlytrap. This gorgeous, adorable, beautiful and cute Monster High character is the Daughter Of Plant Monster. She has a green complexion and multi-coloured hair with one side shaved. I am going to review her Ghoul Spirit version. This is a new release for the year 2014 and is based on the Monster High Webisode from Volume 4 Episode 5 titled Ghoul Spirit. Let's start with a NIP(New-In-Package) photo of this Beauty Queen:


Monster High Ghoul Spirit Venus McFlytrap comes dressed to you in a black T-Shirt with the Monster High logo printed in the middle, a mini multi-coloured skirt, two green bracelets,  two different earrings, and a pair of hot pink boots. As of an additional accessory Venus comes with a Megaphone. Her hair is pink with green streaks on it and goes way down to the top of her knees. This beautiful Ghoul is ready to cheer up her school's sporty team! Now let's move on with the back of her package:


I love her artwork a lot! Such a cute drawing and she is such an amazing character two! This is my favourite Venus McFlytrap so far. Love everything about her. Great body sculpture and great articulations. Her poseable body allowed you to posed her in unlimited poses and positions as you wish to for some fun playtime and photography sections. She is my second Venus McFlytrap doll in my Monster High Collection. My first Venus is her Music Festival. And now let's finish this Post with a close-up photo of this Gorgeous!:



She got great details, amazing features and great stuff! To see more photos of Venus, you can visit her Flickr Account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/111984599@N03/ . More photos of Venus McFlytrap will be added in the next few Weeks, Days and Months.

Monster High Ghoul Spirit Venus McFlytrap, Spectra Vondergeist, and Frankie Stein

The World of Monster High had gotten bigger and bigger during this past seasons! Introducing one of Mattel's newest and latest Monster High 2014 Collection is the Ghoul Spirit series featuring Slo-Mo, Frankie Stein, Spectra Vondergeist and Venus McFlytrap. All four(4) characters are dressed in a Fearleader uniform and comes with an accessory to cheer up their school's team. I went shopping at my local Toys R Us last night and spotted these three(3) amazing characters. The original retail price was 22.99$ each but were currently on clearance for 16.07$ in Canadian currency.


Monster High Ghoul Spirit is based on the latest and newest Monster High Episode of the same name for Volume 4. These are all three girls from the set. Unfortunately Slo-Mo wasn't in store. These Ghouls are drop dead gorgeous! I really love Spectra and Venus a lot. They have such cute face prints and adorable outfits. You can see Spectra on her Flickr Account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/111755263@N02/ while you are at it, you can also visit Venus' Flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/111984599@N03/ . All three are made in China, but the hair quality is not that great! But like other Monster High dolls, they are great articulated bodies that allowed you to posed them in many different positions as you wish to for fun playtime and photography sections. They also have great body sculptures.


I really love their amazing, awesome and adorable artworks! These are so far the BEST Monster High artworks Mattel had released so far. I might be in the minorities that like this series a lot. Some fans, lovers and collectors do not like it when they first saw some photos at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con. But I love it! The episode is so hilarious.

Ever After High Madeline Hatter

In this Blog Post I will talk about my other favourite Ever After High character, Madeline A.K.A. "Maddie" Hatter by Mattel. This beautiful, adorable and gorgeous character is the Daughter of the Mad Hatter from Alice In Wonderland. Ever After High Madeline Hatter is a Rebel and is the shortest of all the characters and dolls produced so far. She has a light-brown skin complexion and has purple and green hair.


I already have a de-boxed Madeline Hatter, but decided to get another just to keep her in her package as a Collectors' Doll. This beautiful Rebel is Raven Queen's best friends. She is dressed in a multi-coloured party dress, a pair of white tights with blue polka dots, a matching pair of high heels. Her signature colours are white, purple and blue. She has awesome blue eyes and comes with a purse that is shaped like a Tea Pot. Madeline Hatter loves having Tea Parties with her friends and whoever she is with.



The back of Madeline Hatter's package featuring her Biography and photos of Raven Queen, Briar Beauty and Apple White.









A closer look at Madeline's gorgeous beautiful face and her cute hat shaped like a Tea Cup and earrings shaped like tiny spoons. Her hands are removable like the Monster High dolls' . This is the cutest Eaver After High doll so far and her character on the Web Series is just too funny and adorable! Love her a lot!





Love her shoes and Story/Diary a lot! She got the best stuff from all the Ever After High franchise. Like the other characters, she is articulated and has an amazing body sculpture that allowed you to posed her in many different positions and poses as you wish to for fun playtime and photography sections. This beautiful and loving character is to photograph and pose.



Posing for the camera. I really love her shoes, earrings and hat a lot! She got the unique details I love about dolls. Very unique and adorable. I am very happy to own two of her.

Teresa Deluxe Fashion

As a huge fan of Mattel's Teresa, you can imagine my great excitement when I found and bought the newest and latest Teresa for 2014: Deluxe Fashion Set. This series feature Teresa, Raquelle and two different versions of Barbie in the latest fashion and each is packed with a booklet and a purse. I got the only Teresa that my local Toys R Us had. Each were priced at 29.99$ but is currently on sale for 20.97$ in Canadian currency.


Teresa comes dressed in very cute lacy pink and white dress, a polka dot light blue vest, a pair of brown leather boots, turquoise necklace and bracelets, a brown purse, and a cute pink head accessory . This gorgeous, beautiful and adorable Hispanic friend of Barbie's is highly articulated and has rooted eyelashes to make her look like a real woman. She has the former Fashionistas jointed body but in better quality. Her purse is made of fabric instead of plastic.



This is by far the cutest, adorable and best Teresa Mattel has ever created and launched. Her hair is soft and manageable. Her cute and innocent face just sold me to get her. She is now my favourite Teresa. Love that cute face of hers and smile too. Her bracelets are in two different shades of blue: one is light and the other is bright.


This is the left side of the Deluxe's package featuring all four dolls. I really love this photos a lot! The other side is Barbie's signature in pink with clothes as the background:


You can see more photos of this wonderful Teresa at her Flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/111026886@N08/ Teresa was produced way back in 1988 by Ruth Handler and was feature in almost every Barbie series and collections released.

Monster High Loves Fashion Scarah Screams

Hello Everyone! I am back with another review. This time I will be reviewing Mattel's Monster High Loves Fashions Scarah Screams. This is the fast-selling and rarest Monster High doll to be released so far and it is a Toys R Us Exclusive collection featuring Abbey, Frankie, Clawdeen and Scarah.  Frankie and Abbey are from Wave One and the other dolls are from Wave Two. Scarah Screams was In-Stock-And-Out-Of-Stock very quickly on the Canadian Toys R Us web site. I did a trade with a fellow Monster High collector, lover and fan last week. The person was so nice to include some Monster High surprises in the package.

                                                The American version of Scarah Screams


Unlike other Scarah Screams dolls, this one is in perfect conditions and her face is flawless! Love this doll a lot and the fact that she doesn't have eyes makes her unique, gorgeous, and beautiful. With that gorgeous green complexion she stands out the most from the other characters. Scarah Screams is the Daughter Of A Banshee. She can read other monsters' thoughts, feelings and other emotions.


                                                         American and Canadian Scarah


This awesome doll has wonderful articulations that allowed you to posed her in many different poses and positions as you wish to for fun playtime and photography sections. She also has a great body sculpture. I really love her a lot! She comes with three(3) amazing outfits and lots of accessories for hours of entertainment. This doll is fun to photograph and pose. I took several photos to share. You can view the photos on her Flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/110780947@N06/

Meygana Broomstix, Cloetta Spelletta, Sashabella Paws, Jade J'Adore and Yasmina Clairvoya are the Original Bratzillaz Girls and are cousins of Meygan, Cloe, Sasha, Jade and Yasmin. The students at Bratzillaz Academy are having a beach party at the school's beach, Midnight Beach to celebrate the moonlight and summer. Rising from the Seas is their newest Witches Friends Forever(WFF) and a new comer to the brand, Fianna Fins! She is the cousin of Bratz Fianna.


Here she is new in the package(NIP) ready to be free. She comes with a hairbrush, hat, shoes, bracelet, cape/skirt/beach towel, sunglasses and earrings. This beautiful Sea Witch has awesome fashion options unlike the other five(5) Bratzillaz Midnight Beach! dolls. You can removed her tail to make her wear a bikini. The white stuff can't be replace once removed. That thing can be use as a beach towel, skirt, and cape at the same time.


Since this beautiful product NEVER made it to Canada, I ordered her twice from the same seller on eBay. One is to keep her NIP and the other to open. On the back there's a mini bio of Fianna. She has the powers to control the Weather and her pet is a Sea Horse named Ripples(sold separately and also NEVER made it to Canada!). She has eyes made out of star and moon. A great body sculpture and great joints that allowed you to posed her in many positions and poses as you wish to for fun playtime and photography sections.


Bratzillaz Fianna Fins has some awesome long crimped blue hair and her skin Glows-In-The-Dark. This beautiful and awesome Witch is simply amazing and is my personal favourite Bratzillaz character along with Sashabella Paws. Here she is out of the package.



Fianna Fins posing in her favourite position. I just love her blue complexion a lot.


Wearing her cape to protect her from the cold weather. As I previously mentioned before, this wrap can be use as a beach towel, a skirt and cape. The next photo shows Fianna Fins wearing it as a skirt.


I just love her a lot! To make her wear a pair of bikini, simply removed her tail. Like pictured in the next photo.


She is simply the best one out of all six(6) characters in this line. With wonderful eyes, great skin, hair and everything! I just love her a lot. Got her on eBay last year for cheap. And to conclude this review, I will add a photo of both Fianna Fins.


Here they are with everything they came with. With this doll you get great fashion options, hat, earrings, beach towel/cape/skirt, shoes, hairbrush and bracelet.
