Karla, You're not alone....I called one of my local Walmarts on Friday afternoon to see if they had them in. They told me they had some on the shelves and that they were $14. I figured that the price they gave me was a mistake, since someone said they were $24. But, what if it wasn't? Anyway, I wanted to get there right away on Friday, didn't make it. Then Saturday, hubby had other plans. I finally went Sunday night and I didn't see them anywhere. I asked someone who worked there, and she said they had them, but they were all gone. :( She further enticed me by telling me how nice and pretty they were. I hope these aren't going to be too hard to find, because I want to see them all! Crystal
I'm finding that Walmarts get different amounts shipped to them & it's very frustrating. The Walmart closest to me got in ONE box, ie-one for each month of May, June, July, August. They were gone in a day. I stopped at another Walmart in a town north of hear yesterday en route to a doll show & they must have gotten THREE boxes as there were lots of each on the shelf. I've found that with the Integrity dolls, too. A Walmart south of here had a whole central display of Integrity dolls-Embassy Ball Janay & Jades (in 3 fabric styles), Photo Hunts, Winter Funs, etc. Just oodles of them. My store got in ONE box, ie- one of each & they were gone in 3 days. Good grief! Just venting... Melissa

Could be like our Walmart that doesn't carry the Integrity stuff AT ALL! I think they did get in maybe one set of the birthstone dolls, as I saw a couple of them one day. They were pretty, but I was holding out for an April and didn't see one. I figure if I was meant to have one, she will be there one day when I stop in. ( good way to curb that spending. LOL)

Does anyone know what the release dates are for them? Are they releasing them periodically into the stores? I have quite a distance to travel to Walmart and don't want to have to go regularly, but I really want the bronze one (November, I think) - lovely red hair, smokey bronze eyemake up, and orangey-red lips. I want her. Oh, and the darkhaired one with grey eyes. Oh... and... Oh, heck... I'll have as many dolls as Karla soon if I keep this up... lol... Come to think of it, what's so bad about that? lol Robin Eugene Bradford ebradfrd@crosslink.net wrote:I'm finding that Walmarts get different amounts shipped to them & it's very frustrating.

I heard that they were to be released quarterly. So far we have May, June, July & August. So hopefully the next batch will be September, October, November, December; maybe in August?! Melissa

Hi Robin,
LOL!!!! Just make sure you have room for alot of shelves! I am really desperate to see them now that I am hearing they are getting them but that they are just going so fast. I have to see them and yes, I saw the one in bronze with the BB and she is gorgeous!!! I'll probably want them all.

Hi Cyrstal,
I don't believe it!! I have been at Walmart at least 3 times this week, even yesterday, and NOTHING! I can't believe the girl had to tell you they were really nice. Now I am really anxious to get them. What do you think is going on? Are they not sending enough quantity, ect. I agree with you, $14 has to be a mistake.

I looked these dolls or rather the one I saw, over well & can see why they added the glitter...Tho beautifiully designed & of good cut...this would be an awfully plain dress otherwise & I guess when they saw that they thought ...glitter!
