    It's always more fun to see two dolls of the same character reviewed together. And also, I’ll be so thankful if you compare them with the signature one in the end. Thank you very much for your channel. 💖💐

    I like the comparison videos because I think most people are having to make choices with the state of the current doll market and overall economy. If others don't like the longer length, you could time stamp for each doll and then your final thoughts. Or you could do separate videos, including one of your final thoughts. However, I'm not sure which is better for the algorithm.

    It’s so crazy to me that with g3 I have completely new favorite characters! During g1 Clawdeen was always my favorite in every line, but now Cleo is with g3. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy all the designs for both generations, but it’s neat to see what character designs stand out to me with the newer launches!

    Monster ball cleo only having a stretchy printed tube dress and tulle skirt for THITY DOLLARS is wild to me. Its even crazier that for that price they both have the nasty poly hair, but between the two I think I’d go with SS, at least its more bang for your buck

    in g1 the gem below her eye was stated to be a birthmark, which always seemed kind of nonsensical to me, but it was very pretty nonetheless, so im glad to see the implication that in g3 theyre supposed to be like a sticker and we might even see them again on some releases.

    I really enjoyed have both dolls to compare. I’m not a completionist collector so seeing different releases of the same character are super helpful for me. I also prefer longer review videos as it gives me more time to look at the doll and see all the details without having to pause or rewind the video ❤

  • @c.w.2000

    I don't have any of them yet, but I think Monster Ball is the strongest G3 series. Maybe it's because I like the fancier outfits and more dramatic makeup. I thought I would like Skulltimate Secrets 2 more than I do, and the poly hair on all of them is unappealing.

    I wasn't impressed with the earlier G3 releases, so I never bought them. That all changed when I saw the Monster Ball line. I purchased Cleo and Draculaura because they look so elegant and glamourous. They are wearing heels instead of sneakers or clunky boots. I guess I prefer dolls that are more sophisticated and less child-like.

  • @shannastech389

  • @melrohner
    @melrohner 11 місяців тому +1

    First, I have to say a big thank you for this video! Something I would love to see is videos of all the g3 dolls of each character compared - like all the Cleo’s, all the Dracs, etc. As a smaller collector I think I’ve decided that I want to keep/display one doll for each character in MH, so of course I want that one doll to be my favorite. I just bought Monster Ball Cleo because her original doll just wasn’t it for me. I thought about skulltimate secrets, but the gold lip kind of throws her off for me. But I’m so happy with the Cleo I got - she is beautiful! Also, I’m wondering if it’s possible to DIY the SS case into a small display shelf? I don’t have one yet, but if I do I might try it! Thanks for this and all your fun videos, I always love to see when you’ve uploaded😊!

  • @vaughn_erich
    @vaughn_erich 11 місяців тому +1

    I think they needed to narrow down the shades of yellow here. The turban is metallic gold, the bandage top is an orangey gold, the shorts are yellow...the turban looks like it doesnt match with any thing and for such a statement piece it kind of needs to have a significant potion of matching gold somewhere else in the outfit to pull it all together. The yellow of the shorts looks weird to me, i think i wouldve made them the same gold as the turban.
    The Monster Ball dolls knock it out of the park for me. Wish Deuce got a doll in the line, but if all they did was give him the same face and hair but with a suit...yeah i can handle living without it.

    If the back of the fearidesant purse is Cleo’s name then the first character will be a little basket with a handle for ‘K’ followed by a lion lying down for ‘L’ (ancient Egypt was my special interest when I was a kid ☺️). I can’t remember’E’ or ‘O’ unfortunately 😅 I think her name was actually spelt with a ‘Q’ though, which is a little slope/hillside so it could be that first instead, not sure what the designers would have gone with 🤷🏼‍♀️
