Thanks JackSparx! cutipieclover, yeah whenever I'm feeling down, a good Disney film always cheers me up! Can't wait for Big Hero 6 either!! I really like Hula as well, and if you get the Zelicious you won't be disappointed! Ah Thanks Garny, yeah when these new holographic dvd slip covers came out recently, I was like, I gotta have them! Been collecting the Disney's for five years or so. The Villains covers were great though. Hope you manage to get some soon volleylove! SnapJack, I'll PM you. |

So I unboxed the Zelicious today, and took some pics to share with y'all! Here's Elfa, Leylani and Tiki! I absolutely love the little flower in Elfa's hair, and I'm a fan of the added pink. Her scent isn't too overpowering, but just smells of generic flowers to me. Her chair is quite sweet. Who doesn't love Elfa, and I'm glad we got another version of her. Leylani is rather cute also, overall I like the little head garland and leaf skirt and wrists. The pink and green compliment each other well I think. Her scent is blossom, and is very light and faint really, so isn't too bad. Tiki is also another cutie, I quite like the brown Zelfs so far and he doesn't disappoint. The vanilla smell isn't very strong on him I'm afraid, and I quite like Vanilla anyway, but again another good addition to the Zelfs! |

Next we have Rainglow, Mermalade and Flitter! Rainglow (not a fan of the name) is a bright red Zelf with bright colours on his wings and tail (which are the best part of him) I'm all for more red Zelfs, but his face and smell let him down. There's something about bird Zelfs without beaks that doesn't quite gel with me, I like the red though. His smell I was looking forward to the most, because I loooove coconut but it is barely noticable at all. Shame really, with a beak and a strong smell he couldve been so much better.  Zelicious Mermy is rather cute, I love her face and the lil' fruits on her head along with the rainbow streak, are absolutely adorable. Her smell is rather pleasant, and fruity (the fruit smells are the strongest, but nicest in my opinion!) the only thing is her body is a little plain, I think she shoulda had darker legs and fins, but overall I like her a lot. Flitter is the biggest surprise, I'm sure we all were like 'huh?' why Flitter? when we saw him as the new addition, but the added yellow compliments him well, and as pineapple is his scent, is by far the strongest and nicest scent of them all. I love pineapple anyway, so its a big thumbs up from me. Purple, Sea Green and Yellow is a great combo, and Flitter is very sweet looking. |

In general I'm a fan of the Zelicious Range, we get the best of both worlds really, new versions of our fave Zelfs with new additions/colours and also brand new Zelfs to add to our growing collections! The smells are mostly a nice twist on them, some nice and some not so nice, but all in all Good Work Moose Company and keep making the Zelicious Range!!! I'm hoping for Wintery theme next, maybe Spiced Apple and Cinammon, Mulled Wine, Mountain Frost, Pumpkin Pie, Winter Pine and Forest Fruits?!? Something soothing for the cold Winter's nights maybe??? (Flamy, New Zelf, Snap Jack, Lil 'D, Birchy and Garny in case you're wondering?!? Lol.) |

Oooh I didn't notice Elfas hair flower... and her smile is different to her original too! That makes me want her even more. <3 Not to mention her flower chair is gorgeous. Leilani is really cute but I'm not a fan of the plastic leaf skirt/wrists unfortunately. I do really like her flower crown though and how when she stands in her display piece, her feet look like there covered in sand. I really like Rainglows display piece especially the heart round the back, but sadly I'm not a fan of him. Which is a shame because I like parrots and rainbow colours. Mermy I absolutely love so I'm glad her scent is nice. I honestly don't mind that she's a bit plain because I feel the fruit headpiece and colourful streaks in her hair make up for it. Sometimes less is more. Tiki although cute, I feel has a bit too much tribal detailing for me personally. Flitter however, I thought about getting his series 2 but never did, however I have to get his zelicious. Yellow really does compliment him and pineapple is lovely. Thanks for posting Catsby and congrats again Do you have a fave zelicious? |

I prefer the simpler Zelfs in general, I just think looking at them from the back, Mermy is a bit plain compared to others. Zelfs don't need a bazillion colours or being over-complicated really. If I had to put them in order of fave to least (Zelicious) it would probably be :- Elfa Mermalade Flitter Tiki Leylani Rainglow |

Yes I suppose that's true. I actually really like Tiki's wings. Going off your pics, I'd probably agree with your order. I may or may not swap Mermy and Elfa round (just because I really like the fruit head piece and colourful hair) and Leylani and Tiki but there's really not much between them.

It's a shame that some Zelfs are still not very scented - I hope they up their game with the next series, so that all of them smell strong!
Congrats on the new Zelfies, Catsby! I really love Tiki. Probably biased since that was my nickname when I was younger though XD

I think Rainglow will look better without the white face. If I get him I'm going to acetone it off.

Flitter is the only one that smells strong in my batch, the others vary from faint to barely there! Though it may just be mine really, I guess you won't know til u get some yourzelves!
Shame really, as I like Vanilla, Coconut, Pineapple and Tropical stuff in general.
The S2 Zelicious were similar, Strampula and Bubblee smelled the best, then Chocolaa and Spellminta, Berryshy was quite weak smelling and Frostette smelled quite yucky!
(Oooh we gotta have new names for these, how about Flynapple, Mermalutti Fruity and El-flora?) Haha.

Yeah actually Wardah, it might be better if she had a red face, or maybe just white around the eyes? I might paint a beak on and see if that helps her?

My initial thoughts: Stardust is right up my street! She will look great next to Float, with their pastel colours. Flare, I need to get to go alongside my Ina Ferna Novi Stars doll. XD Ooma is cute too, I like her tail a lot, but I wish she had some design (white?) on her belly. Not quite sure if I will be picking her up... Catsby - Your Zelf and DVD collection is amazing! I wonder, have you got the Disney film "The Moonspinners" starring Hayley Mills? That's one of my favourites. |

Hopefully it won't be long before they arrive on your shores Zeeps! Didn't someone say the US/Canada would get them end of Feb/March?!? That's only 4 weeks away!!! Garny, why did they call you Tiki?! I'm curious! The Zelicious are all pretty adorable! Mermy and Elfa especially!!! sarahsatsuma, you will love Stardust and Flare then methinks! Many thanks, no I haven't seen that one. I'm a big fan of Candleshoe and the Watcher in the Woods, and of course the classics Mary Poppins and Bedknobs and Broomsticks. I love love love the animated ones, especially the simpler drawn ones. I think I was probably the right age when they hit the 'renaissance' period (the 90's) to appreciate them all! |

Great films! Bedknobs and Broomsticks is a gem! Another favourite is The Sword in the Stone. Do you perhaps have collection/individual pics on Flickr? If so, I would love to see them! |

So I went Zelf hunting today, and picked up So-anne and Bella from Argos (2for15) Two glittery additions to my collection!!! (I also picked up a Galexia, woo hoo! That's 6 Series 4 Medium's I have now!!) Interesting fact - So-anne has different colour eyes like Frostette did! One blue and one green. Also she is much darker than her stock picture shows her to be, I thought she would be tan and cream coloured, but she is actually light brown and gold!!!  Who knew?!? She has the same messy crimpy hair that Cyril appears to have, can't wait to unbox her! |
