(With MH, when you think a doll will be amazing it's so often a dud, and a doll that looks kinda boring turns out to be a stunner.) In other words, I'm not surprised this Lagoona has won you over. :) As for the drink, I immediately equated the aqua color with a cold beverage, but you're right, it could be something hot. Those white chunks could just as easily be marshmallows as ice.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11614336806159509795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922378775615192491.post-37774328359222319032013-11-13T09:31:55.811-06:002013-11-13T09:31:55.811-06:00Long time reader, first time poster. First off, ...Long time reader, first time poster. First off, I hate you for reviewing her. I was not terribly interested in Lagoona before I read this review. I recently got the Target Dance Class 5-Pack, and the Lagoona in there has some terribly frizzy hair. I was all but done with her. Now reading your review, this is a great version of Lagoona. Must have!<br /><br />And then my question; Doesn't it make more sense that Lagoona's drink would be some kind of hot chocolate with marshmallows, not ice?Loganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13159215058950101145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922378775615192491.post-35915097543368541942013-11-12T21:14:54.524-06:002013-11-12T21:14:54.524-06:00Oh God, we'd be like a faggy Abbott and Costel...Oh God, we'd be like a faggy Abbott and Costello.

I love her personality but her looks... her outfits are awesome but I'm annoyed by her "blondeness". I don't like blondes, which is actually my biggest issue with Lagoona and Abbey. I guess I'm "blondophobic", lol! <br /><br />Seriously, though, I do adore her Legacy Day version. Stunning outfit. But IF and WHEN I start collecting EAH dolls, I'm quite certain that both Apple and Blondie will be last to enter my household. <br /><br />It'll take a certain while before I'm a fan of Apple. Plus, it could be dangerous for me to love Apple and become one of her fanboy. John might get down on his knees and pop the question. Oh wait... tthat IS a good reason to fall in love with Apple! Yeah! Lol! ;-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04511894767094084690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922378775615192491.post-25952475243265811352013-11-12T05:54:18.441-06:002013-11-12T05:54:18.441-06:00Oh!

I still say DC was her best doll purely because of that unique vibe she has. As for DT Spectra, she's pretty fantastic but I'm not sure I would've had a whole lot to say about her that I hadn't said before. I *love* that doll though!<br /><br />I agree that there's room for both EAH and MH. I would also agree that for me EAH is a little higher in my estimation atm. It's such an interesting world they've created for it, and the dolls are so detailed and just, you know, really nice! But I will always love MH! I'm hoping the new lines really reignite my love in a really big way! Based on what we're seeing, and what I've recently gotten, that's exactly what will be happening!Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11614336806159509795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922378775615192491.post-86228868910684776532013-11-11T21:00:40.400-06:002013-11-11T21:00:40.400-06:00Thanks Helen! :) I think this would be a fantastic...Thanks Helen! :) I think this would be a fantastic starter Lagoona.

I'll ask here :) I'm not as fortunate and don't have money to spend on dolls like you, so I only own four Lagoona dolls, two older (Schools Out and Classroom) and newer (Scaris and Swim Class) and even I can tell her newer dolls are much different now. I'm positive you have seen her differences as well, and I would like to know your opinion about them, if you like the newer or older dolls of her. I prefer the older dolls. The older dolls had brown eyebrows instead of lavender, had lighter green eyes, a bluer and more shimmery skintone, and more natural blonde hair rather than the neon yellow (well not to 13 Wishes degree) she sports now. Her face also looks less sweet looking...is that what you mean by her having a sultry face nowadays?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428116647771823933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922378775615192491.post-15327017515466517322013-11-10T14:28:06.509-06:002013-11-10T14:28:06.509-06:00Is it my imagination or the new doll has less hams...Is it my imagination or the new doll has less hamster cheeks than the previous?
