Note: Click on pics to enlarge! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I hope you are all doing well! This year was a quiet one. I mean there was definitely volume, but I mean quiet as in it was fairly chill. The lead up wasn't - so much cleaning - but the day itself was so chill and smooth. One of the best yet for me. This is a little bit of a brag post about what I got, I like to share, but in regards to collectibles, it's not much, and I bought them long before Christmas, or put on layby and paid off leading up to it. It's because I knew no one would get me anything collectible, okay? I was right by the way, no one does anymore. BUT THAT'S OKAY! If it's me buying my gifts, at least I know I'm not getting something I already have... unless it's a blind box... yikers. I'll go through everything I got anyway. Each side of my family did a Secret Santa so we'd all get one present from each side. I didn't mind that, I thought that was fair and guarante...

Note: Click on pics to enlarge! When I purchased Chillax I was sent two bonus L.O.L products, a Fuzzy Pets and a Confetti Under Wraps re-release. Of the Fuzzy Pets I got Go Go Birdie, and while I have O.M.G. Speedster, I have no interest in her family or the look-a-likes, nor bird pets in general. It's also covered in this really gross flocking fuzz and I do not like it. It makes my hands itchy, but I'd tolerate it if I got a pet I actually want and like. To find out who I would like, go [here] . I didn't even touch the modelling compound at the bottom of the container because I have no intention of keeping her. I can't give a good proper review on this particular series until I do get one I actually like. Go Go Birdie weighed 191g and had the clue Fur Baby. For those who are interested, this is what is included; [ included in this Go Go Birdie Fuzzy Pets ][2] The Confetti will likely stay as I like her, so I did a proper review for her. This one was 390g, most of whic...

Note: Click on pics to enlarge! POOPSIE SURPRISE FANTASY FRIENDS BY MGA! They've been out for a WHOLE year, and I've been squinting at them for as long, trying to decide if they're worth it to buy. I hate slime, I hate messy glitter but the dolls do be kinda cute tho! I bought one of these months before this 'official' review, but she was neither Shelly Scarlet (above)  / Misty Coral - both mermaids - nor one of the others that I wanted to keep but gave me excellent insight to who and what is in the set. I'm a picky little bugger and want absolutely none of the boys nor the rainbow-drizzle dolls. See below my roughed-up checklist. [checklist with edits][2] As per usual, my favourites and ones I want the most are the rarest ones to find. I'm cursed! ACK! Big W is the only place that seems to stock Poopsie Surprise Fantasy Friends anymore, and at $ 29 AUD for just one, you'd hope hunting down the ones you want would be easier but it's noooot. I though...

Note: Click on pics to enlarge! If like me, you're Australian based and Chillax either disappeared incredibly quickly from general retail stores. I'm not 100% sure if she even made it to stores actually, I never saw her available anywhere. When I picked up Da Boss and Roller Chick many moons ago, she was nowhere to be found. NEVERTHELESS, I HAVE ACQUISITIONED MADAM CHILLAX from a lovely seller on eBay who sent her to me with  I did pay $72.80 including postage for Chillax, which may seem overpriced but the lovely seller included two extra L.O.L. surprise products; one Fuzzy Pets Makeover series, and one Confetti Pop Under Wraps re-release, both of which I wouldn't normally purchase on their own. I will be rehoming the Fuzzy Pets, but keeping the Confetti because I like her! I'll look at them later in their own post. If I deduct the approximate market value of the two extras, she's below the RRP of the other three dolls released in her series. Here's my math; Fuz...

Note: Click on pics to enlarge! Honey and Kitty have been sitting under my desk for a little over 6 weeks now and my chronic obsession with the FailFix dolls has resulted in their neglect. My entire line of Rainbow High dolls have fallen behind too, oh no. I'm sorry women of MGA, I'm getting to you soon I promise! Having a random moment spare at 2am, after having a lackluster attempt at some art, I decided I needed a pick me up, and that is to FINALLY unbox a Remix; at least Honey, they deserve better than being bonked by my knees all-day 😭 Honeylicious is from the infamous MGA line of L.O.L O.M.G big sister dolls, this time themed around music. In the Remix line, there are technically 10 dolls so far, 4 are singles, a two pack (of the FIRST big brother, and big sister of the first Boy LOL) and the other 4 come with their little sisters in a hugemungus mega pack. Honey was, at the time I purchased, $42 for a promotional discount price at Big W. They've since gone back up t...
