There are a few RH / SH I would like to get before they completely disappear and I believe with the rebranding they will be more difficult to source so I totally get it! 😬💖

Yeah, and I only recently got into them. I've only found two rainbow high at my thrift store. If I see them I grab them if I have the cash. Only the ones I really like, tho. 😊 I managed to get a poppy in the butterfly dress at my target. She was my top one to get.

I have to admit that I also panic bought a few RH/SH dolls too recently. I think it was the fear that the quality and the details of the clothes that we've been used to with the dolls is over and we won't get that again with the reboot, at least from what we've seen so far. To be honest I feel satisfied with the ones that I have now and hopefully this will give me the impetus to do more things with the ones that I do have and enjoy them more.

I am trying to adopt that mindset! I will go back to shopping used for the few I am missing.

I'm in Austria and store shelves are pretty much empty, too. No real sales either, which I don't understand. They were all full price (which is much higher than in the US) and now they're disappearing. I'm glad I got most of the dolls I wanted already, but I'm a little sad about Poppy. I was waiting for the Fantastic Fashions to go on sale and now she's gone from amazon and every shop I went to.

Girl, I’m just like you. I’m a 50 something and love RH dolls. Unfortunately I got my first doll from RH on 12/20. 🤦🏻♀️ I now own 15….mostly thrifted because I’m worried that the reboot is going to change the entire line. I love Jett btw.

Same thing in Australia. All Older Rainbow High/ Shadow High on clearance and shelves are empty ready for the new reboot. I guessing they will not be available once the the new stock arrives. Luckily I started my collection a few months ago and bought every one I wanted back then before the reboot was seriously happening.

I totally understand. I am having a bit of a panic, as well. I have about 4 RH dolls in my Amazon cart and I am debating. i think of all the dolls, these would be all that i would possibly still want and hate to miss out on.
@corvidaegudmund11866 ай бұрын
Honestly same. I’m not a completionist when I collect something, but I have still been going through the Rainbow High store on Amazon, pondering which dolls I really want and which might be discontinued soon. Meena and Karla are in my cart, and I’m debating how much I like Natasha and Shanelle.😅

The dolls were overproduced, I think finding them second hand, especially in the USA will be easy and not so expensive. I am not so worried even here in Bulgaria where they are not so common and expensive. I have so many want. My top ones are Natasha Zima and Delilah Fields. There is more ofc. I would like to have like all colors of the rainbow, but I want to find them cheap. Even if that means that eventually I will not find them at all. Amazing finds tho! I will be watching the unboxings! I am a little bit jelly for Abbey :D Congrats on all of them but especially on her.

I don't panic too much. I want Olivia from the last wave but other than that I am quite happy with the RH/SH dolls I have. I don't need them all anyway and I don't want to end up with too many of them either. I think we will aways find some thrifting in the future. People who don't collect dolls don't care about the reboot. Today, I have found Delilah Fields in a charity shop. She has her second outfit on, the earrings and the flowers in her hair. She was only £1.50. I could not believe it. I also found her cow boy boots and a yellow skirt in a box of accessories. I was looking for the glasses but they were not in the box. I paid 50 pence for the boots and skirt. Many collectors really love that doll but not the people who do dolls clear out! 😉
@kasugaifox85716 ай бұрын
Lucky. I found two at a thrift store. Just the dolls. One had no hands. I'm just gonna try to make clothes for them. Had to order some replacement hands. They are series 1 sunny and avery. Sunny's hair was a mess. Took me an hour to get her hair untangled. Turned out nice. I'm always on the lookout out for them. I'm not gonna pay eBay prices. 😊
@darklight42516 ай бұрын
I am sure we will find more. I also bought one without hands a few months ago, I just could not leave her there. I have found quite a few thrifting but it took a few years. I never seem to find more than one at a time. I am delighted with Delilah. It really surprised me to find her especially with so much clothes and accessories on! Most of the ones I have found were nude or with hardly any clothes. I love Avery. She is so cute with or without a wig. I love my charity shops and boot sales girls! It is always so great to have the pleasure to find them! Some Omgs tops fit RH very well. I know some Barbie clothes fit them too but I did not try. Ebay is ok when we find real bargains but it does not happen very often.
@kasugaifox85716 ай бұрын
@darklight4251 Yup. I love averys pink hair. I'll have to try Barbie clothes. Amazon also has doll clothes. Found some I want to see work. I'm currently working on getting the shoes blind boxes before they jump in price. Got the tall pink boots. They will be on avery forever! I order Uma and meena from amazon.
@darklight42516 ай бұрын
Meena and Uma are great dolls. I have never bought anything on Amazon. I boycott Amazon with a passion! I thrift a lot, not only dolls. Sometimes I think I have a kind of thrifting addiction. Thrifting is great but I have limited space. I am now extremely selective with what I find thrifting. I leave many dolls behind that I would probably have bought a few years ago. I also want to part with dolls I should not have bought in boot sales in the past. It is a long and difficult process but I need a bit of "refresh"!
@kasugaifox85716 ай бұрын
@darklight4251 I'm short on space, too. I've got my g3 monster high doll in storage totes. Most to keep my cats from messing with them. I might grab one of the reboot rainbow high dolls, just out of curiosity. I'm not a big fan of slime. I'm probably gonna quit after that. I will get them if I see them at thrift stores, tho.
