We all need to know! Who was your first doll??? And do tell us why!
Mine? DoTD Cleo!!! Why? A few people at work call me Cleopatra. I have Cleo hair...LOL. Anyway, thats why I bought her. I didn't know anything about the line at the time. She reeled me in hook, line, and sinker!
Now dish!

three dolls... were my first... i got signature draculaura, signature frankie, and school's out frankie. i bought them because it was a buy 1 get two free sale... so at about $10/per doll after tax i couldn't pass them up. <3... and they were the only dolls left besides the guy dolls and sporty fashion packs... so i didn't have much of a choice who to get

My first doll was Wave 1/Signature Lagoona which I bought online so to make the postage worth it I also grabbed Halt Hyde (he was basically the only other one in stock) and even though I don't love his character, I quite like his doll. Lagoona though, she was for sure always going to be my first MH doll I just wish my Signature Lagoona had silkier hair

dIGITS - Holy cow why are there never any sales like that around here?? Thats a seriously amazing deal!!! Schools out Frankie is so cute ; 3; Mindy - I feel the same way about Holt. I hate his character in the webisodes, but his doll (aside from the blueness) looks alot like my boyfriend...Hahaha! So I had to have him! XD And my 'Goona has really rough hair. I've tried curling it a few times without luck. I'm too nervous to boil perm it. I'm afraid I might melt her head or something!

lol Toccyn, when I opened Hyde my boyfriend was like "Is that supposed to be ME??" because he has red hair which actually is why I kind of like the doll ha ha. He was pretty happy to see a male doll with "red hair" though, which was cute I haven't done much with my Lagoona, I did try and calm it down a bit with some warm water. It did tame the frizz slightly but I honestly think she needs some major conditioning.. I'll try that later on lol I'd just die if I ruined her And Digits, that IS an amazing deal! Dolls retail at around $30 here - it's crazy. I also agree with Toccyn - Schools Out Frankie is very cute! I was sent her instead of Signature Frankie and was considering returning her but I fell in love with her shoes and de-boxed her only to fall in love with the rest of her - she's stunning!

I went out looking for Lagoona. I ended up with GB Lala at the first store I went to, followed by GB Cleo and Lagoona from the next. I love water themes, so Lagoona was a must for me. Not to mention her colors are perfect.

I love Lagoona! She delicate yet totally punk. And those freckles? SO CUTE!!! I'm 100% livid that she never gets much screen time in the webisodes...I mean, her story arc is WAY more interesting than the fearleading junk. *sulks*

Signature Frankie was my first!
I got her October 2011. Target had one or two of the siggy Frankies and lots of wave 2 Frankie's. I actually liked wave 2 Frankie's outfit better but at that point in time I was just going to try and have one of each doll (HA) and I figured if I was going to do that, I might as well go with the signature ones so I could have their first diaries and pets too.

My first was original wave Frankie which I purchased through Amazon last year. I also ordered Lagoona at the same time but she ended up backordered for an extra week. My Goona's hair also arrived a frizzy mess but with the pleasant addition of a huge hunk of dried glue attached to her hair that I had to yank off. xD

My first doll was Lagoona, bought in October 2010. I overpaid her by horselenghts back then, but just HAD to have her <3 And my second was Gloom Beach Draculaura, which I bought 5 December 2010. She's my all time favorite, and she's even more gorgeous with the fashion photo pack <3 I love reading about everyones first dolls!

I started with Lagoona, too, I think around September of last year. I wasn't sure about the rest of the dolls at first but when I saw those fins and freckles and beeeauuutiful tiny hands, I HAD TO HAVE HER. Uh, after months of stalking her in stores and on Flickr. Then I decided I needed at least one boy doll so I got the Deuce and Cleo two pack. When my mom picked up a Holt and an original Frankie for me (because Walgreens was closing them out FOR FIVE BUCKS), there was no going back. @____@

The first one I wanted was Lagoona, but the first one I bought was Spektra. I had just barely decided maybe I would get one someday then I saw her and her was like YUP. She's sitting on my computer desk right now. I had to take off her shoes cuz while her boots are pretty awesome, I LOVE her clear little feet.

I started with DoTD Frankie because I'm an 80's freak, and her colors were bright and beautiful to me! I'm debating whether to get the DoTD 3-pack with her, Draculaura, and Clawdeen. Oh who am I kidding? Of course I'm going to get them! ^_^

It's a close call on what I got first, wave one frankie and lala I both got last year for my birthday, I got one as a gift and one I bought myself on the same day! It all started then when only wave one was in the stores here, but I was hooked!

Mine was Signature Frankie. I'd seen the dolls (well, Frankie, Draculaura and Lagoona) on the shelf before I'd seen the webisodes or knew much about them, and every time I passed them I picked them all up and had a good look and then told myself not to be silly and put them back. Then I watched the web series and I knew I was doomed. Next time I went to TRU looking for ponies I came away with my first doll instead!

Mine was signature Draculaura, I thought Lagoona was prettier but did not like her sporty clothes.

My first was Lagoona, but the reason why is rather boring! When I first found out about Monster High I saw them in the Argos catalogue and they were really limited in my local stores. Eventually I found there was 1 doll left and they brought Lagoona out.
I wanted all four of the girls desperately but if I'm honest I was hoping on Draculaura first as I have a soft spot for vampires and I loved her victoriana clothes and all the pink. But Lagoona is so gorgeous I couldn't be disappointed ;D She was probably one of the best to get first as I hadn't realised she had fishy eyes, fins, webbed hands and mermaid-like ears until I got her in person! The others all have some great monster features of course but I still think Lagoona has the best detail.

Mine was the original Clawdeen with her stand, bought at an op shop for 2 dollars. She had her entire stock, minus the shoes (she was wearing Draculaura's boots for some reason)
