Now that Mattel is taking over the line, the characters look less stylized and more like their actors. I have mixed feelings on this, because now the line will never be cohesive, but then again, Chloe here is gorgeous. I loved Malia in Babysitters Club (as my fave, Mary Anne!) and was sad they never did dolls for the show. Not that it seemed likely they would, but it would have been awesome to add them to my BSC doll collection. Anyway, I'm happy to have another character of Malia's on my shelves.
The box was a new style. Quite easy to open. It's mostly plastic flaps and cardboard now. I had to cut the plastic bits around her wrists and the wider plastic band around her waist, but the only plastic Ts, as I call them, were in her head.
Chloe is capable of standing on her own. She's not the most stable but it is possible.
Gorgeous!
Her top is actually a bodysuit. (I didn't want to remove the gloves, so I just pushed her jacket down.)
The rest of the outfit is pants, a wide belt, and translucent glittery pearl boots.
Chloe is an athletic character and comes with a sword! Love it.
This is one of my favorite pics that I've taken in ages.
Absolutely LOVE this doll! I'm so glad it was Chloe who was in stock enough to come overnight. Red, Bridget and Uliana are supposed to come tomorrow, but I doubt they're going to make it. I wish they would because I'm not sure USPS will deliver on the holiday Thursday. (I can't tell you the last time Amazon shipped dolls USPS. Weird and potentially annoying.) I'm not sure if I'll be buying any dolls aside from the core ones. I'm still not even 100% sure on Bridget, but I'll probably keep her. I don't really think I need the Queen or Cinderella though, and Uma doesn't look enough like Chyna for me to buy her. I'd love them to make a doll of the young Maleficent but I'm not holding out too much hope.
