lost & found vintage toys

flashback friday favorite ~ monster high create a monster dolls

since i'm posting monster high dolls this month i thought i'd share this flashback friday favorite post from xmas 2012..

my xmas toys today.. these 2 new create a monster starter sets from monster high ~

i got the gargoyle/vampire set of guys & the cat/witch set of girl dolls ~

each set only comes with one wig, so you can share hair or go bald, or just buy more sets ~

& the parts are all interchangeable in a bunch of ways ~

update: here's another gargoyle guy i picked up recently too ~

love the ears ~

missing his hair ~

but fortunately baldness suits him ~

they're goth & cute ~

now here is the part where i rant about the insane packaging ~

i'm ocd, but does this bother anyone else? instead of having to unwind a million tiny wires to get to my toys, something i've just grown used to now, these had a new twist.. you know those little plastic T-like tabs that hold together new socks? these toys were held in their packaging with about 50 of those, but they're miniature, like super tiny! when you pull the packaging open they pop & vanish around you, & if you try to clip each one individually it is a nightmare & they're so small you lose most of them anyway. this is a menace for a kitty owner, as i don't want my kitties to swallow little pokey plastic bits, & i also don't want them landing in my own food or drink.. i'll take wires any day over these..
ok, rant over.
