So Finally

This was meant to be posted awhile ago, but life kept getting in the way.  I'm about two weeks away from final exams and in my break from studying/ working on projects, I've finished this up.

This a Cinderella doll that I got in high school, but she got shoved in a box, and I forgot that I had her.  I was looking for some old Pokemon toys in the basement, but I found her instead.  (I'm not complaining).

Here she is in her box

Her head came off in my backpack; it probably got caught on something

I like the box art.  The background behind her has her carriage and castle, if there weren't so many large holes in it, the box could be used as a small back drop.  My plan is to cut out the part with the castle and carriage for future doll projects, it would work great for a window.

The doll itself is nice, but one shoe keeps falling off and bodice fabric isn't as nice as the rest of the dress.  The shoe doesn't bug me too much, since she is Cinderella after all, I just to be a little extra careful in transporting her.

This is also going to be my last unboxing post for awhile.  I did say I was going to do one for Briar Beauty, but since its not hard to find reviews of her, I'm going to skip it.  Again, sorry this took so long.

Oops, I Bought Raven Queen

I met to write this up that night, but I ended up playing Harry Potter Clue and watching Interview with a Vampire with one of my roommates and her friends.  I started on Sunday, but I had work and quite a bit of homework.  Monday flew by too.  

Saturday I went to the mall with a friend.  While we  were there I popped into Justice just to see if they had any Ever After High dolls.  They had the basic versions and the Legacy Day versions.  I like the Basic better, so I ended up getting Raven Queen.

I really like the box.  Unlike the Jakks Winx dolls, these aren't too much of a pain to get open.  The interview is a great touch and I do like Raven's answer to the romance question ("I have to figure out where my story is heading first").  I'm not a big fan of everyone being in couples in high school settings.

Almost Free

Finally free!

The stand is nice, but its hidden in the packaging.  If I already hadn't know that a stand came with her, I would have assumed there wasn't one.

She also comes with a clutch purse.

 I really like Raven's (and the other EAHs) face(s) and I plan on getting the other dolls in the basic line as they come out.   

Doll Haul

So after my math class today, I took a bus to a local shopping center.  I stopped in Toys R Us and found the Trix and the Winx Vanity on clearance.  

I ended up going crazy and getting all of them, but my luck with the Winx Jakks dolls has been rather poor.  Overall I like the Trix dolls, their clothing is very very similar, but its like that in the show too.  Their shoes are really cool.  

My phone camera decided to act up while I was taking pictures of Darcy, so I'll write about the vanity in another post.  I also went into Michaels to pick up some craft foam to make doll armor, and the results of that should be up soon.
