Fashion Royalty Glam Addict Giselle (Video Below)







I was among the lucky winners of the 2012 Glam Addict Giselle.
I didn't actually want to enter the lottery but I did so only in hopes of winning the doll for outfit.
If you were thinking the same you should know that the dress will not zipper closed completely on the FR body (bummer) but still looks good!
I'm not a Giselle fan. To me, she looks like the Eastern European and Russian high price hookers that prowl around the pits in Vegas and Atlantic City...or Dancing With The Stars.
I also tried her head on the regular FR body and still didn't like her
So, I'm planning to sell her nude.
Another issue is the shoes. I just don't get the heelless pink shoes and the black platforms (that I loved) are too big!
This is a lovely doll. She is fierce actually and a return to the Fashion Royalty of old so five stars,two thumbs or snaps or whatever means Awesome!
Hoping we get some FR dolls with the same classic and sexy creative energy

NEW MONSTER HIGH AT TOY FAIR 2012 VIDEO

Toy Fair 2012 is once again chugging along.
Of course Monster High is the must stop shop at the event!

Time To Play magazine was able to get a sneak peak at the new Monster High Ghouls Rule Line due out this summer (should Mattel decide to make the actual dolls available for people to purchase)
You will also see the Create A Monster Design Lab; another attempt by Mattel to sell the illusion of customization.
The video is great if you can ignore the host's thick NY accent
