Basic Rochelle: Our Royce

Hello.

Personally, I don’t like Rochelle’s colour theme and her HUGE eyes when she’s a doll design I would have loved otherwise. I don’t like the blue-green highlights in her hair, and her usually too-bright pink lipstick. I’m not that big a fan of pink, so her pink accessories are a hit and miss with me too. But I bought Rochelle because I saw a custom which had looked pretty good. While staring at the custom, I noticed the cracked details on her wings. As I was staring at the cracks on her wings, just like that, I had a character all thought up to go with Nikolai and Sasha. (It helped that I knew she was available at the local TRU too.) I bought her weeks after fleshing out the character Royce, and only managed to unbox her earlier this month. =)

Skelita : Our Bein

Skelita unboxed.

Skelita is wow. *o* She’s my third complete MH. After C.A.Cupid, and SS Frankie, I was kinda surprised her whole body is rubbery, instead of mostly plastic. Personally, I think it would have been better if she had been all plastic, instead of rubber as it’d hold her position better.

BW SS Frankie : Our Kadavri

Black & White Skull Shores Frankie unboxed

I don’t like the Frankie doll in general; cos she’s green. *laughs* She’s really sweet, but I wasn’t sold on her skintone. When I saw that there was a black and white version of her, I just -had- to get her! I especially loved that her hair was black and white and the white was one of my favourites for wigs — it’s got a blue sheen under certain lighting.

C.A.Cupid : Our Erotica

C.A. Cupid unboxed.

C.A. Cupid is the first female MH doll I’ve ever unboxed (March 17, 2013!). I was soo freaked out over how fragile her lower arms seemed to be and how TINY her wrists were. XD Then I realised that they weren’t made of plastic but were the rubbery material like the hands, so I was really relieved they won’t snap off. =D

CAM Gargoyle + Vampire: my first Monster High experience

Only one stand, one set of clothes and one wig = boo! =(

Only one stand, one set of clothes and one wig = boo! =(

Background: I was staying in Sarawak, East Malaysia, in a city called Miri, to be exact. There is one ToyRus, and the slection is dismal: they seem to get -random- dolls; almost as if the stock was leftovers from other stores or something. What they -did- still have (which was an awesome find!) was the Vampire+Gargoyle Create-A-Monster set. I bought it in March 2013 when everyone was trying not to pay scalper prices for them, -if- they could find them. I didn’t even realise that some of these big CAM packs didn’t come with two torsos until much later. But thanks goodness the one I got made me two complete boys–no, men. >=D

Welcome!

Hello. My name is Seph and I began this site in order to have an outlet for the creativity inspired by Monster High. =) I didn’t mean to get into MH. A friend owned them, and out of curiousity, I looked around at pictures. Then I realised they had male dolls. Of course, I fell for Clawd and Deuce. And so began my search to own them. *laughs*

I got into MH too late (back in February 2013), and the boys were so hard to find–especially the editions I wanted! =( My first MH had been C.A Cupid, whom I never unboxed until after I got the Vampire & Gargoyle CAMs. The first MH I really fell in love with was my gargoyle, and his vampire owner came next. I named them Sasha and Nikolai respectively, and they were the ones who ensured that everyone else that came after had a place. From just owning four dolls that I could find in stores, the internet cursed me with an army. *grin* At this time of writing, I have 27 dolls. *wince* No repeats–which is good, right? *grin* A few more have been planned, but they are very minor characters, so the urge to get them isn’t that strong. =D

I thought the MH dolls were wonderful–well designed and creative–but even I was surprised at how quickly and easily Nikolai and his pets inspired their own little quirks and their own little stories.

Without further ado, we welcome you to BloodBags, a website created especially for Nikolai’s pets. =D

.

As a note, the BloodBags characters are confirmed, but not all the current dolls ‘fit’ their characters 100%. Proper wardrobe, wigs and faceup customisation is needed for some of them. As such, pictures might not completely represent the characters they should. These will be marked with OOC (out of character) tags, and customisation or random posts will also be under the Random Babble category. =D
