so you're telling me toys r us approved i heart fashion wydowna spider but denied dolls with tentacles? i-
This is all speculation on my part-
MH is sold and marketed as the "strange" and "different" dolls... a 6-armed doll fits perfectly (that and, at the time, MH was INCREDIBLY successful and flying off the shelves- including prior "risky" doll releases that were TRU exclusive). Winx (because of Nick) was marketed as fashion and fairies that are colorful and happy- thus those Trix dolls, despite being intended to be villains, would have been contrary to the branding at the time. Though Toys R Us SPECFICIALLY were the ones that denied them- not Rainbow or Nick.
@@xCanadensis Yeah I started thinking about how winx is marketed as "magical" and "girly" so it makes sense that TRU ultimately decided to deny them sadly.(I've also never doubted these claims, I should've worded that differently sorry!)
How Dare Toys R Us call the Trix fairies no wonder why they're dead
Ikr the trix are WITCHES not fairies smh.
The sheer disrespectfulness
Awesome stuff,if you ever talk to em again tell them they did a stunning job on the harmonix and bloomix lines. They really turned out super gorgeous.
I was told that one of the favorite shoe designs Jakks did among the team were the Harmonix shoes :)
@@xCanadensis Makes sense,they did a great job on those. It looks beautiful and pretty close to the show.
jakks pacifics dolls are always so nice like their incredibles dolls may have had weird proportions but they were really well molded and had such nice high quality features and it’s the same with the with the winx dolls
The proportions were apparently chosen due to "extensive trials" to see what was most popular with audiences. I honestly really like them and think they match the art well haha
This was amazing! I find it really interesting that the person who was in charge of Winx Club for Mattel was the lead for Jacks too. Keep giving great work to the community. Thank you so much for this!
Before anyone insults the Nickelodean writers and artists again, remember the people who chose to change the show’s time-slot were NOT the same people from Nick who produced Winx! 😭 Totally different teams! And Iginio Straffi really likes working with Nick’s writers, they made a new show called Club57 together, and I like it 😊
Nobody mentioned the writers or artists from Nick... just the time slot decision
Now I cannot imagine how much Mattel has spent on MH doll production 😌
They don't need full hand painted/hand-done prototypes for every doll though they would be custom ordering samples for each! Though a few thousand dollars is very little when you consider they make hundreds of thousands of dolls to sell at $20 each at market :)
The thing about Toy Fair seems really accurate, the SnapStar dolls were supposed to release more dolls last year and ended up and the discount area at Walmart and then being canceled. They had a lot of dolls at toy fair but they were likely just prototypes?
I wasn’t a part of Winxs fandom but I do remember seeing them, on Toys R us shelves and I really liked how they looked. Aishas dolls always caught my attention the most. I will say, that after watching the new live action Winx show, on Netflix, I am curious, to check out the animated series. Thanks for sharing all the information with us.I wonder if new Winx dolls, will be released in the US. Especially since Nickelodeon is part of the new Paramount+ streaming service.
Damn Jakks was really thrown under the bus
I never knew that toys rus has winx club dolls.
As I already commented under your last Winx vid, I love the Harmonix Musa and Tecna by Jakks.
I was furious when I found out like 4 years ago that these 2 were never realized and Jakks is not even my fave brand. Wish they were at least released as like rare exclusives or so...
Anyways, these informative vids are *awesome* ✨
Myscene ❤
Question: do you ever wish that sode characters got dolls? For example: Diaspro, Galatae, Krystal etc
Ya
I used to love wind club as a child, I had no idea that there were dolls!
As a European Jakks Pacific was such a mystery to me, thank you for this video.
No problem! I wish I knew why Jakks was so limited in Europe? I assume it's because they would compete too much with Witty?
@@xCanadensis Where I lived Witty was really hard to find! The show was super popular but somehow the dolls weren't? That's a really good question!
@@xCanadensis I just dug up and the dolls we had were mainly Mattel's I had a color magic wings Bloom (which is super hard to find images for?)
Thank you so much for gathering and sharing all this information with us. I love this video and hope to see more like it in the future.
I was never into Winx Club, but when I got back into serious collecting I would end up having some brief passing knowledge about them, heck I didn't know they even had dolls! Nonetheless, I found this incredibly interesting and like behind the scenes information on doll stuff, tbh I think it needs to be more of a thing since doll collecting has a huge community.
I'd absolutely love if you did more videos in this style!!
I have several planned! :)
I literally gonna memories all the things you said in this video. Thank you so so much for this video!💜❤
WOW! Thanks for sharing all that behind the scenes information you got! Very nice of you while also respecting the persons privacy, I loooved the video tbh! It was interesting, the background pics were beautiful to look at and also they way you spoke way amazingly done😄👏🏼
I really like Jakks Dolls (especially that believix power line). Jakks made dolls that are really easy to identify which is a good thing! I think Witty should have not changed, I do not know what it is but the Jakks dolls look somewhat better than the Witty dolls, maybe because of actual different make up and all but Jakks definitely did a better job with their original faces.
Again, Great Video and Thanks for sharing!!!
No problem at all! After the prototype video several people tracked the person down and started harassing them which I was extremely disappointed by :(
Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m not super comfortable doing voiceovers yet :(
There is no need not to be uncomfortable with your own voice overs, I know it’s sometimes weird hearing yourself, but you truly did SUCH a good job👏🏼
About that person, I am so sorry! :/
Why would people harass them tho...it’s so sad especially since the person probably won’t share further thing since it „backfired“ on them :/
The Jakks dolls are the best ones
After mattel winx ;3
Indeed, the Mattel winx dolls are the most nostalgic and they were apart of a lot of childhood’s and they were so pretty
@@bisexualjacko yeah I agree
@@bisexualjacko no matter if its mattel, witty or jakks
Winx dolls will be always hard to get ggdfgd
I haven’t brought a winx doll since I was a kid, and they’re so hard to get these days
Now we finally know why the witty. Dolls look like the jakks dolls thanks for the info!
I always thought they just copied them or something but it was done with permission and love! I think the reason they don't look as nice as Jakks is because Witty only does stamp-application for their eyes?
I say that on websites, they should have Winx Club dolls at low cost of 20-30 dollars so people can order them.
I'v never knew that the budget doll faces were stamped that is really interesting 🤔
Love these type videos thanks 🙏
I literally forgot the UK sold Jakks dolls in Argos aka the first picture you used
Are jakks ever going to make the dolls again is there a chance even if it's a tiny tiny chance I'll take it
Super interesting info!
I wish Tecna got more dolls, she's my favorite and its SO HARD to find ANY dolls of her!
So many of the lines just didn't make Musa and Tecna period
I'd like to have more infos about the witty toys winx dolls
I love jakks and this video is very informative about the behind the concept and everything
Could you make one talking about witty toys winx?
this was amazing !!
What i hate on Jakks were the budget lines with non articulated arms,legs and knees
I’d love to know how much that collector percentage as changed since Rainbow High.
Can you please make a video about getting stains or yellowing off of your dolls
Unfortunately I literally have no idea how to do that and have never done it before :( “A Thousand Splendid Dolls” is an incredible channel with wonderful doll fixing tutorials!
@@xCanadensis aww ok. The only reason I asked was because of my cheer jade. I got sent new hands from mag but they weren’t painted and I don’t know what they used
Your younger than me by a couple years... i admire you for collecting dolls...
Just wondering but do you know what. Happened to the color splash and mythix dolls? (if this question is too confidential than it's fine if we don't get an answer since we all need to respect the source's privacy)
Oh no it’s not!
Nick cancelled support for Winx and therefore the Jakks partnership was ended so they couldn’t produce them. They fully intended to
@@xCanadensis Thank you for the explanation! :)
off topic but some of my rainbow high dolls have really static hair, do you know how to fix it?
conditioner
@@xCanadensis ty
🦋🌈AWSOME vid.I am more happy that ToysRUs went under they didn't supply very little of the Winx dolls and made poor design decisions.
I was wondering, did you ever have an interest in the 2006 tinker bell And friends dolls? Limited dolls came out before they changed the design of the doll's .
I have a ton of them!
Nick put winx up on they're chanel at FRIKIN 2 AM HERE and now it's not on there at all
For me Jakks dolls looked the best I wish I had buy one when it came out … they were so pretty. Now .. over 100€ :/
I really don’t like the new dolls ._.
Question:how come they didn’t make a dark bloom doll
I got a question about poppixie about cherie
If anyone knows, what happened with harmonixcollector?
He would have said if he wanted people to know. It’s been over a year
I have a Aisha tynix winx doll.
Yeah um Inever new the dolls hair was good quality ithought it was bad because of the way it came in the box lol Iwish iknew thst or they might still have the original hair and regular face and not one ihad to draw so they don’t look like slender man or something lol
most of the price came from the packaging?here i am thinking they're expensive because they come with their wings and labour it took to design their clothes
Not necessarily most, just a great deal
oh yay i have been noticed
Why is cherie in poppixie so rich.
for me the best winx dolls design was mattel one… 💀
I thought my kingdom have winx Club they don’t sell it
Hello
:D
First!!
Why do boy dolls sell badly
and i can’t stand the season 8 wtf-….💔
