Monster High Power Ghouls

A new set of dolls have started to come out, these based on Super Heros, but there are only two of the four dolls out currently.

                      Clawdeen Wolf as Wonder Wolf                Spectra Vondergeist As Polter Ghoul

This full set is a Target exclusive set sadly, though there is no release date out yet for Frankie and Toralei's power dolls. These recently came out, I believe back in November with the large amount of doll sets that came out for the Holidays. These are available on Amazon but in short supply and of course they are more expensive because they are exclusives. However currently you can still get these on the Target website,  Spectra's item page is here and Clawdeen's item page is here .

To begin with, I just have to say the way the dolls are displayed in their boxes is amazing. I love how Clawdeen is bursting through a wall while Spectra is phasing through one. It makes me wonder how Frankie and Toralei will be, its definitely going to be interesting.  The dolls come with something a bit different, they have their usual stands and brushes but they also have a short comic book that explains how they became super heros. Spectra is the first her book showing how it begins, and in Clawdeen's when she becomes Wonderwolf there is a silhouette of Polterghoul saying that it was time for Clawdeen to join them. So it seems we have gotten the beginning and the end of the comic series, or that at least one other ghoul already has her powers. I would say if its just one it will most likely be Frankie, I think Toralei will end up being a villian she reminds me of Cat Woman.

I personally think these dolls are gorgeous, even if I'm not a fan of the yellow-ish green in Clawdeen's hair. The outfits are simplistic but fitting of as super hero, and Spectra's cape of chains is perfect for her.  These dolls are amazing and perfect for people who are fans of comics as well. After all Wonderwolf is of course based on Wonder Woman, and it is said Spectra is based on Super Girl. There are even rumors that Frankie is going to be based on the Flash! Not only that in the comic book there is a second villian besides Toralei, this one actually being a doll that has never been made, the Daughter of Arachne.

I highly recommend getting these dolls, they're gorgeous and perfect for Monster High fans. As the other two dolls are released I will be doing a review of them when I can get them, to keep up on the news of that make sure to join us on our Facebook Page.

Jinafire Long

When I first got the Skelita doll I was extremely happy, however I had a mission to complete. I needed to get the next new character! I had been wanting her since I first heard about her, and I got her finally a couple weeks ago!

Jinafire Long

Jinafire Long is a bit of a hard doll to find as new ones usually are, especially as it is part of the Scaris Frights set. I found her at a target luckily, the box was a bit damaged and it was hidden in the very back so I figure I'm pretty for that. Amazon of course partially reflects how hard it can be to find her, with the doll fluctuating between 30-40 dollars on any given day. She's finally listed on TRU's website, however she is not available to get online and even on Mattel's website she is sold out.

Jinafire is the daughter of the Chinese dragon and they focused on that beautifully. She doesn't have wings like Eastern dragons do, instead she has the long tail with a feathery looking tip just as Chinese dragons do. Her skin is a beautiful golden color, and she even has scales along her legs and such to keep to her dragon origins. Not only that but they keep close to her Chinese heritage as well, her hair style especially with the stick is definitely a common oriental design. Even her clothes have an oriental feel to them, being a lot like a mini kimono dress.  She is a gorgeous doll to say the least and its hard to find anything wrong with her. With my doll her tail has a habit of falling out, granted you can stick it back in easily enough but  mine seems to fall out at simple bumps. I don't know if this is a common trait or not, I haven't heard anyone else talk about this but I haven't talked to many people about Jinafire yet. Even so I imagine in newer dolls her tail will be better, as it does seem that they try to fix problems with each doll that comes out.  The only other thing I don't like about this doll is that instead of string at the end of the sticks they have plastic molded to look like string, I can understand why though and its just a personal preference really. Jinafire, like Skelita, doesn't come with a journal exactly her's filled with drawings as well including some gorgeous outfits I would love to see become available for the dolls.  Nor does she come with a pet, on her bio its listed that she has narrowed it down to 50 choices, and that dragons take a long time to decide on a pet. This alone makes it doubtful she'll ever come with a pet, and it seems that Mattel is trying to move away from the Monster High doll and pet theme they had going for most of their characters.

All in all, she is an absolutely gorgeous doll and I highly recommend getting her. If you can find her in a store that would be great, it would save you money. However if you want her right now you can get her from amazon and ebay both, but they will cost you more. This is a great doll for any collection and your little ghouls will have tons of fun playing with her.
