Jem and the Holograms Hype

I'm so happy, I'm gonna explode, Loyal Subjects, who made the fantastic Rainbow Brite doll, have revealed a Jem from Jem and the Holograms doll!!!!!  She comes with good looking articulation, two outfits, a stand, a comb, and I'm over the MOON!  I'm so excited!  I love the Rainbow Brite mini doll, so if the Jem doll is the same quality, I'm in for a TREAT!  And if Jem sells well, they could come out with the other band members, or even the MISFITS!!!!!!

2024 Dolly Goals Progress Report 4

I've been itching to fill this out, it's been long enough.

1. Buy less dolls.  I did a big doll sort and toss around the end of July.  It was surprisingly easier than I expected.  After researching other doll collectors methods for thinning the herd, I removed a couple brands I no longer wanted, and removed duplicate characters from brands I still liked, resulting in downsizing my collection by 27 dolls in total.  Also, I've reorganized some doll collections to take up less space, gaining more storage room by about 4 totes.  So, even though I still buy a couple dolls a month, I've reduced my numbers and how much space they take up to be actually lower than where they were at this time last year.

Playline Doll Brand Predictions

I've been feeling clairvoyant AF lately, getting tons of hunches, like big ones, but not about important real life issues, or lottery ticket numbers.  I'm getting hunches about the playline doll future.  For shits, I'm gonna post my predictions here, so I can look back here next year and see how far off I was.

Unboxing: Clawd, Deuce, and Heath from Monster High

Here are 3 boxed Monster High boy dolls.  I was going to unbox each one, one at a time, one each week, for most of September.  I did not do that.  I savagely unboxed them all in one sitting. Warning, this particular blog entry is incredibly long.
