News Bites: Peaches & Cream, Golden Dreams and Monster High

Posted by Bethany in PA on 10/11/2025, 8:57 am

Mattel is downing us with releases this month!

* First, the Peaches & Cream dolls are arriving. Both the blonde and AA. Not bad repros, quite honestly.

* Next up, Golden Dream Christie is shipping. Mine is stuck in pick up but should be here this week.

* Friday, October 17th is supposed to be the launch window for La Llorona Barbie, which will take the place of the "designer" Dia de Muertos.

* Tuesday, October 21st at midnight eastern is the official launch window for the second Stevie Nicks doll from the cover of the Bella Donna album.

* Towards the end of the month, The Barbie x Monster High crossover featuring Frankie Stein as Barbie will release. She will come with a version of the classic vintage Solo in the Spotlight dress as well.

* Finally, next up in the Skullector series is the Monster High take on the classic movie Alien.

Not an Alien fan, but that doll is amazing. Love the wrist tag on Frankie.

I am a fan of Alien movies and MH dolls, but do not want this doll. Too scary to have in the house!

Both of the MH dolls are on my wish list - after years of not collecting them!

It might have just been an error. I noticed that the new Golden Dream Christie is called a 1980 doll when she is really a 1981-- that was clearly an error
