Odds and ends

It's Thanksgiving break, and Miss Scarlett is spending today relaxing, writing up some reviews, and doing some assorted chores (because like as not, I can't spend the whole day goofing off). I'm going to make sure we have enough posts to last out the year, and hopefully cover January.

It's the last day of GOG's Fall sale, so if you've been holding off, now is the time to act! Unless you're waiting for Steam's holiday sale, that is.

The third wave of Right Stuf's Black Friday sale goes live tomorrow, and they have confirmed that the limited edition Sailor Moon BD/DVD set of Season 1, Part 1 (episode 1-23) will be part of tomorrow's sale. This will also include a limited edition coin. I already got mine, and I'll have that review up soon. 

For those Monster High fans out there who want to buy the Student Disembodied Council 5-pack (featured Slo Mo and Gilda Goldstag), Target has a flash deal ending tomorrow! It's 50% off--making it only $30! With free shipping, it's a steal! Also, Toy R Us will be bringing back the Dawn of the Dance dolls as a Black Friday special. Last I saw, they were $17, but this could be subject to change. Mattel will also be making non-posable vinyl figurines of the main characters, which should be available next year. No info about retailers or price points yet, though. Fans are finding the "Haunted" dolls in stores now, so keep your eyes peeled!

We've also gotten confirmation that the Ever After High "Spring Unsprung" collection will feature a Kitty Cheshire doll, which will be a Wal-Mart exclusive. No pictures available yet, though. Still no word on when we can expect any of the playsets, Mirror Beach, or the basic dolls for Kitty, Duchess, and Ginger. Mattel, my hype is dying a little more for each day you don't announce anything!

The next toy review will be this Friday, get hyped, guys!

EDIT: The Toys R Us Monster High deal is this: Dawn of the Dance dolls are $9.99 each IN STORES from 5 PM to 9 PM on Thanksgiving day. Also, Right Stuf's Wave 3 starts at 12:30 AM CST on the 26th, so it might behoove you to stay up a bit to make sure you get the best deals.
