Bleeding Edge Goths Siphon Veins Exclusive Doll Review
Переглядів 2032 роки тому
Today I bring you another Bleeding Edge Goths doll review! This is another one of my out of box dolls, the exclusive Siphon Veins. I'm not sure what she was exclusive to, a lot of these details remain obscure when it comes to a doll line this old. I also discovered that there are two variants of this doll, one which comes with a choker and slightly different face paint than mine. Hope you found...
Yummi-Land Ice Cream Pop Girls 13 Inch Dolls! Renee Rainbow Ripple and Betsy Bubblegum Review🧡💖
Переглядів 5672 роки тому
Today I bring y'all another obscure doll review, this time for the Yummi-Land dolls produced by MGA from 2006-2008 or so! The dolls are usually small (around 5 inches) and come with a distinct soda or food theme, a pet, and a strong scent. At one point they decided to turn their Ice Cream Pop Girls into tall 13 inch dolls, and those spoke to me the most as an enjoyer of awkwardly large dolls. T...
Moxie Teenz Doll Collection and Chat! Arizona and Melrose Review💖
Переглядів 5662 роки тому
I've been dying to talk about Moxie Teenz ever since receiving my Arizona in the mail recently. Not only is this line stunningly gorgeous, but the main purpose of my channel is to talk about doll lines that don't tend to get a lot of screentime here on UA-cam. Though these dolls can be sought after, I don't see a lot of in-depth videos sharing the details about them. A lot of this video ended u...

    Totally get you. I’m really meticulous with my budget and “must haves” now. Granted, I do typically buy preowned but there’s no denying that collecting is an expensive hobby!

    It's good to be in tune with what you can afford and balancing life and future goals. Life is more important and yes dolls are a luxury. Thanks for sharing!

    @Serenastar79 16 днів тому

    I've stopped, too, influncers getting them for free or the special ones given to them. Others buying up to 4...really you need 4 of the same doll and third party sellers. Can't find Jinafire anywhere here in Canada or Amazon unless it's third party upselling it. Not enjoying collecting anymore in any way due to all this. 😢😢😢

  • @Radiospossessor

    I've actually been going back and buying old dolls like the lil bratz that I missed out on as a child. Not really buying any new dolls I just want older toys and I'm looking into blind box bjds.

  • @delbelcoure
    @delbelcoure 17 днів тому

    You laid out really good reasons. I was kinda glad when RH started its decline, easier on my wallet. Last November, I decided I'm devoting my time to restyling the dolls I have and doing some minor face painting. When I start looking for dolls to buy, I redirect towards a project doll. I'm sure I will buy dolls in 2025, but I am aiming to love the dolls I have instead of being stuck in the buying loop

    The thing is there nothing worth in playline anymore, I really love Monster High, and G3 is doing really great stuff, but they just don't measure up in design and quality with what Rainbow High and lol omg were offering before 2024 and ever since I never been whoaed by a playline doll. I still collect them, but more like they it that dopamine kicks in wait of something better, but if nothing comes along, I'm happy with my current collection and will move on to another of my hobbies .

    I agree with you. I stopped buying dolls in 2022 and still don't. But I still appreciate my small collection of left dolls (I sold most of them).

  • @maureenbright5432
    @maureenbright5432 17 днів тому

    Thanks for sharing. Doll collecting IS prohibitively expensive in these hard times. I find I value the dolls all the more when I can only buy absolute must haves. Curating is very satisfying too when there aren't constantly new dolls to deal with. Best of luck to you in your new space.

    I agree with you, the skullector line this year was soooooooo boring. I didn't bother getting any this year, and i'm also a big fan of the line.

    I have a collection of these, you don’t know how hard this doll line to find. It took me two years to collect Moxie Teenz dolls. They’re more like the cheap versions of BJD. Think the dolls was discontinued because they’re expensive. I love these dolls so much when the commercial came out, I wasn’t too into the wig gimmick. They worth the price. Sad these was slept on. I remember wanting these dolls so much. Hated the wigs for sure. They rereleased it’s first wave I’m late 2013. Moxie Teenz was certainly a mix of collector and playline.

    I love this video! I cannot believe that Gloria Phobia was only $6.99. I'm so glad that these are avaliable in the UK and for decent prices. I recently bought 3 more girls making my collection 11 in total plus a kinder sized goth too. My all time favourite is Raven and she is the centre of my display! Peace and love xoxo

    • @DollyDiscourse
      @DollyDiscourse 2 роки тому

      True, I guess I just meant they have more of a childlike body type since I'm more accustomed to fashion dolls personally! But yeah they're not the same as like a classic baby doll
