Hi!
Meowlody and Purrsephone did re-appear at my local TRU, so I am hopeful about others being able to get them at issue price.
The Target Store Exclusive Scary Tales (Threaderella, Snow Bite, and Little Dead Riding Wolf) are already very popular. This is NOT a set to miss, so buy early if you think your child has any interest AT ALL. Target also has matching girl-size costumes in their Halloween department for the Scary Tales. A Target exclusive Howleen/ Clawdeen set from earlier in the year has been reappearing -- dolls from this set are very expensive on Ebay, so if you can find this in the stores for retail, you are very lucky!!!
Draculaura's car at J.C. Penney ($35) has an actual exclusive doll in it, not just a cardboard cut-out paper doll.
The Paris (Scaris, City of Frights) dolls will be coming out -- not sure if they will make it before Christmas, or if it will be in January. Rochelle will be particularly cute, with an Eiffel Tower print on her dress. I'm going to hold back some dollie dollars for whenever they show up at the store. That set will have a cute playset, too.
Doll-size Tutu skirts for Monster High. On Ebay, search Zanjava. She has color-themed skirts that can reliven play with MH dolls your child already has.
Even regular-line Monster High are cute this year, but if a special or exclusive doll is wanted, try to get it as early as you can, just in case!!!
