New To The Collection Of Cool


 

 
Another Abby for the collection always hard to pass up on. I thought there were only three figures in this series but I was happy to be proven wrong. Again the design craftsmanship is all over this figure. The only thing I hate is all the tinsel in her hair. I would be a bitch to comb if I took the figure out of the box. I know it's meant to make the hair shimmer in the light but it comes off looking cheap.
 


The movie is just what you would expect from a committee that is trying to get to the pulse of what every tween girl wants. Since I am sadly not a tween girl, this is not made for me. For me the toys are good enough that they don't need average animation and predictable storytelling to shine.

I love this Abbey! She is a Wal-Mart exclusive in my neck of the woods, and I've noticed that lately numerous stores tend to do that, they have their own special edition to a particular series. I really like her look on this one!

I'm not a big fan of the cartoons, they can be a bit over the top, but I did enjoy the roller derby episode. It was cute. I also like the message that thisline has, it's good for the younger set and makes an old broad like me feel like the kids these days might grow up to be all right.

I can't believe that I saw her in one of those lot piles and jumped at the Buy It Now feature. I thought this series only had three characters. REALLY happy to have her. I rotate figures in and out of my room but these never seem to leave. My Monster High girls are taking over my space and I love it.
