Monster High ghouls (post 1)

I started off originally making doll clothes for Monster High.
Monster High female dolls came in 3 sizes (excluding mermaids and other specials)
Monster High ghouls, Big sister and Little Sister dolls.
They have since added a 17" doll, a 28" doll and the smaller dolls of Monster High families
 as well as rebooting their original line with less articulation.

Monster High dolls are thinner and longer torsoed than the Ever After High doll line.
The older, better, more articulated dolls (non-reboot) have 11 points of articulation:
The head, 2 shoulders, 2 elbows, 2 wrists, 2 hips and 2 knees.

Mattel has shot itself in the foot in many ways in the last couple of years...
Losing the Disney Princesses was one way, rebooting Monster High to look like Princesses to take their place and cheapening the doll line with less articulation, less unique fashions, different doll hair materials, was the other. I and other doll collectors are very unimpressed with the reboot.
Many are abandoning their collections (check eBay) and moving on to other dolls, since they feel abandoned by Mattel and lowered sales have meant fewer dolls on the shelf 
causing a loss of brand confidence among novices and collectors alike.

They retconned my dolls.

Wa-Loli!
