Yes, I am a target market.

Mattel has started making dolls that are cute girl monsters. Monster High! (clicky-link to the Mattel site for them!)

They're ADORABLE. Let me direct your attention to Draculaura. (clicky-link!) She's a vampire. With long, straight black hair (with pink streaks!), who wears black and pink, carries a black and pink parasol, and has a pet bat.

::blinks a lot, then makes flailyhands of glee::

The Stroppy One, when I showed the Monster High dolls to him, agreed that they were very cute, but felt that the people who make the Bleeding Edge Goth dolls should feel a little ripped off. He's ... not wrong. (However, I think I like the face sculpt on the Monster High dolls better than the BE Goth dolls.)

To sum up: VAMPIRE DOLLY THAT IS DRESSED IN PINK AND BLACK AND COMES WITH A PARASOL. Ahem.

Yes, there will be SFD photos later today, if I can sweet-talk mauraanderson into wielding the iPhone camera for me.

The dolls are even cuter in real life:) The face sculpts appear to be Mattel's "My Scene" dolls done over in monster fashion.

I think I may have to indulge myself with at least one of them. I know The Granddaughter wants the Draculaura one and will probably get one to keep her from begging to play with my Evangeline and Ellowyne dolls as much. If they would only make the monster dolls with changeable wigs or heads it would be perfect.
