Vampire Heart Draculaura Review Part 4 of 4
In this final part of my review, I’ll be comparing her a bit more to some other Monster High vampires.
Including my G1 Elissabat (who really needs her hair de-glued) and I’ve had her hair “restyled” like that ever since I got her just because I liked how she wore it up in the flashbacks in “Frights, Camera, Action.”
The picture above has mini-dress Draculaura with Elissabat, the true Vampire Queen. Luckily she’s pretty cool with this Draculaura playing dress up, as long as she gets to try on her outfit too.
Also, I had never undressed my Eissabat before and didn’t know these were two separate pieces!
And here is she is!!! I kept her puff purple sleeves to make it fit more with her color scheme. It’s not a bad look at all and I would have loved to have seen a true Vampire Queen Eissabat Collector doll.
Something like this, but even more dramatic. Give her some large vampire wings, layers of bows and bats and deep purples, a better looking tiara to house the vampire’s heart than what she wore in the movie, the works!
I think her boots look better under the dress than Draculaura’s though.
Her purples and large bell skirt gown are also kinda reminding me of this collector Barbie:
The true Vampire Queen….
….and now
Jump scare!
I wanted to compare G2’s hair play Draculaura (my favorite of my G2 Draculaura) due to the light pink steaks in her hair (as I thought it was the same light pink Saran) and her “darker face-up.” Turns out, it is actually a shade darker than Vampire Heart Draculaura’s and her makeup is not as dark as I remembered.
The difference in these dolls are night day, so onto something a bit closer.
Draculaura’s 50 dollar Amazon Exclusive collector doll vs Amazon’s Exclusive Collector 90/100 dollar doll.
I never thought I’d say this, but I actually way prefer the new doll over the old one in every way except for the lack of diary in the current release.
I was actually never a huge fan of the Collector Draculaura’s eyes (they look better far away and look like they were designed by Tim Burton) or her extra long body (I did like the chest articulation though, but thought an ever TALLER Draculaura looked odd), and prefer the new face up and eyelashes on the newer doll.
It does look like they have that same really light pink Saran.
They both have crumby stands that don’t hold the doll very well (at least Collector Draculaura’s is beautifully detailed).
And surprisingly non of these lace/lattice patterns were present on Vampire Heart’s Draculaura’s skirt. The embroidery on Collector Draculaura is still unmatched though, and she’s still an extremely lovely doll.
Buuuuut, she surprisingly has more in common with Haunte Couture Draculaura than Vampire Heart’s and visa versa.
She’s like the in between of Vampire Heart’s and Haunte Couture (similar colors to Vampire Heart’s, buuuut the same layered skirt with bat wing edges, heel/sole to her shoes, and a cape that attaches to her wrists…and I guess hats and rooted eyelashes that Haunt Couture has).
Well, Draculaura likes to reuse and update pieces of her wardrobe from her long life.
“Come play with us Vampire Heart Draculaura.”
For fun, I compared OG Draculaura (whose hair has been degreased with LA’s Totally Awesome, but she just needs to be retro-brighted and I haven’t had time to do that).
She has the much skinner eyes of the OG Draculaura than the more “show accurate” Creeproduction Draculaura, but has the darker pink skin tone of the Creeproduction.
Well, I think that’s everyone, let’s get you to the Vampire Heart ball, or whatever ball your vampires are celebrating this week.
Huh. Looks like Valentine has offered to dance with you Draculaura. I wonder if he’s reformed in this timeline too….
Wait, now the famous movie star -and nothing else- Elissabat wants to dance with you instead. I’m sure Lord Stoker will be glad at all the attention you’re receiving….such a graceful model Vampi-
Tripped over Fangelica….it looks like she’s in this timeline too…
Anyways, all bow down to the Vampire Queen, the most beautiful of Monster High’s Skullector’s dolls (to date and my opinion).
….seriously I really want a diary to go with her…stop leaving those out Mattel!!

Vampire Heart Draculaura Review Part 2
Okay I mostly just covered the box in the last review. Time to start looking at the doll!
I was boring Draculaura, so she started wandering around and exploring some gargoyles (not related to any of her fellow Monster High students).
A close up of her earrings. It has a version of the Vampire’s Heart on top, with a bat and heart lower down on it. They are made of some very flexible plastic the same color as the real Vampire’s Heart.
I also wanted to compare her earrings to Elissabat’s as both of them have different size tear-drop sections. Hmm, I guess they were not as similar as I thought.
More comparisons under the cut (her face-up, hair accessory, and comparing her shoes to other collector Draculaura’s).
Her face-up is beautiful!! I love the silver glitter under her eyes, the darker eyeshadow, her black lipstick, her separated fangs, her blackened heart birthmark. Just perfection.
It does remind me of Draculocker Draculaura’s and Dawn of the Dance’s.
With the more detailed eyes from Haunt Couture Draculaura:
I think the eyelashes are done better on Vampire Heart though (I pushed her cute, upside-down-heart bangs out of the way to get ya better look at her face-up).
But her heart birth mark being black instead of pink is much more of a G3 Draculaura trait.
Okay, onto her beautiful headpiece. Here is the back of it. The bat has an intricate lace design in the wings that tie into her white lace bodysuit.
A closer look at the bat and Vampire’s Heart detail in the front and the back.
Her headpiece is attached to her head by plastic stays, but it is made with teeth in the back so it could actually stick into her head.
Mine’s a bit crooked, oh well.
Awww, the hearts are the same from the Haunte Couture Draculaura’s belt.
Altogether it makes it for an elegant headpiece; hmmm, maybe Elissabat’s crown should take some pointers. :/
Now let’s jump down to her shoes!
It also has a lot of lace detail, along with a stair case heel (like the one she descends to).
Look at that cute little open winged bat.
The soles of her shoes are blank.
And the front of the shoe. I love the look of the lace, bows, and texture on the toe.
I wanted to compare my three collector/Skullector Draculaura dolls’ shoes. Interestingly, they all have a similar profile in the toe-box. And come to find out, both Collector and Haunte Couture have the same heel and sole.
All three of them have little bats at the top of the heel.
I ran out of room again. So see you in Part 3 (covering her fabric clothing).
