New Moxie and Bratz at Target

Target has been updating their toy section, and while there have been plenty of other things that have been going on that I *could* have posted about (and may yet do so) this is one I *am* going to post about - because I don't feel like posting all these photos to my flickr account! ;P
(I don't like cluttering up my photostream with random photos - tho sometimes I do it anyway if I'm too lazy to blog...)

None of this stuff is totally brandnew neverbeforeseen, I don't think, but hopefully there's some interest value, since it's still pretty new stuff.

First up are the Moxies in costume. These are on sale for $6.99 at the moment, tho interstingly, none of the stores I went to had any signs to tell you so!

The costumes are cute, but the fabric is cheap. I bought the Alice one anyway, I couldn't resist. I do really like the package. I almost hate it when I like the package, it gives me the feeling I need to keep the doll in the box, or that I should keep the box - and I have neither the space nor the money for nonsense like that!

The winter Moxie dolls that I saw making an appearance in other people's flickr accounts have also now arrived. I really like the redhead (she has freckles!) so I am sure I'll be picking her up sooner or later - and actually keeping the doll too, and not just the clothes!

They are $20 at the moment, so I will hope for a sale. I've seen pictures of boys from this line too, but did not see any in the store yet. Maybe they'll show up eventually!

That's all the pictures I have for Moxie, though I think there were a few other new clothing designs. I will try to get pictures of those when I can.

In the meantime, on to Bratz! I am not sure - are Bratz still being made by MGA (Moxie's makers and the original makers of Bratz) or are they somehow now being made by Mattel? I thought they were going to disappear altogether now that Mattel won the lawsuit, but instead I see that there are actually new Bratz designs! (10 new designs for 10/10/10 for the doll's 10th anniversary* or so the box says!) That's why I wondered if they were being made by Mattel...
You know, probably it says on the box somewhere? I am so tired today I didn't even think of that. Anyway, mysteries aside - pictures!
*10th anniversary, btw? I can't believe these dolls have been around so long!

I like her flouncy skirt!

Nothing on this one is terribly amazing to me...

Her overall look is pretty cute. I am feeling a definite 80s influence on this season's crop of dolls. (you'll see this more when I get the Liv doll pix up) Having lived thru the 80s once, I'm really no fan of the idea of living thru it again, but at least it's better on a doll than on me!

Last picture:

Clearly this is not all 10 dolls, but that's all the dolls they had. I am rather liking Jade (Ok, Jade's clothes) in this lineup...

More later!
