So, let me tell you a little story. Once upon a time, I fell in love with Novi Stars, especially a specific one that I couldn't get called Doe A. Deer, when I saw this doll I realized that MGA was no longer producing these dolls in the US and I thought I missed my chance to start collecting them, when I came across the older ones on Amazon and Ebay I got a few, but not all, and of course the new ones that I super wanted were just too much money.
When I saw the new ones like Doe A. Deer listed in a UK Toy shop called the Entertainer online I got super excited, but then immediately downcast when I realized they didn't ship to the UK, so I asked my Mom, whom has lots of cool friends, if she knew anyone there in a freakish desperation. She joked that I had a problem and had enough dolls, which is true so it shouldn't have been a joke MOM! Haha, so I decided to just check the site over and over until they would ship to me, and then suddenly my mom texts me a picture of Doe A. Deer and says HAPPY BIRTHDAY! while I'm at work and I start freaking out. I wanted to scream and stuff but the store was silent and customers were staring at me funny just for smiling too much.
So basically she said that her boyfriend David had friends in the UK and that my sister Collette said that's what they should get me for my birthday, and it was like a dream come true because all these guys that care about me came together to make my birthday wish come true! Fairy-tale ending is that they arrived just the other day and I got to Skype my mom whelst opening Doe.
My birthday box from the UK contained, 2 Doe A. Deer, Justina Hour, and Frostina Sprinkles. All ones I super wanted and love! Justina Hour has a clock on her head that when you wind it, it unwinds moving her eyes back and forth like a clock, and Frostina has legs filled with plastic colorful sprinkles and she's got the most awesome hair and eyes and is super sparkly like a girly cupcake of joy.

To the right is a slideshow of the boxes, and also of Ari Roma and the 2 Novi Star outfits my friend Sericea bought for me for my birthday, Surprisingly she found them at a local Walmart, I suppose there are still some on the shelves out there in the world! It's my hope for the future that MGA will give the Novi Star dolls another shot in the US, for me! Just look at the amazing box art! | |
Now for my Review on Doe A. Deer. What can I say aside from she is the best and most beautiful Novi ever made? Well for Starters, She is based on a Doe (NOOO REALLY?) which Deer are so beautiful and cute as it is, but she's also an alien girl, I just love the way formed this concept so beautifully. Her antlers are so detailed and realistic, and she even still has the antenna that all Novi's do, which I adore, only her antenna are rotate-able. She is painted a pale white that fades into a bronze like brown, Her hair is a pastel lilac shade just screams mystical, and a dress the color of an almost pastel olive that is layered to look like leaf layers with a beautiful pink flower at the hip.
Her shoes even have what I assume are meant to be a Doe "shoe" based on Horse shoes. Super cute idea and thinking there. Also This Novi has the single prettiest eyes ever that display a small deer in each pupil and she has pastel pink make-up. As for her feature, she really is soft and fuzzy like a deer! only on her legs but it almost makes it look like she has soft leggings on which I think is fun. I recommend her to everyone. Unfortunately she doesn't come with a stand, but I found that my Monster High doll stands seem to work just find.

Are there any dolls you wish would be more available to the US than they are now? Tell me about them in the Comments!
