Hi Negative Legend can you please showcase my letter I sent you last year on your Channel please did you heard about the conflicts in Ukraine I felt bad for the people goodness is Ukrainian people or pick you up a good fight I just want to let you know that war I hope you have a good day
Hi negative I love the doll and I love how you look, I have only one doll cause of money but love her I would also love to know what you think of the show of rainbow high, it is on youtube and Netflix
Fun fact (because this was bugging me) - the lettering "彩虹" (Cǎihóng) is actually the Chinese spelling for "rainbow". I initially thought it was Japanese too, as someone who is learning the language, but couldn't for the life of me find out what "Sainiji" or "Ayaniji" meant. If you flip it around, "虹彩" (Kousai) is the Japanese word for "Iris" referring to the part of your eye that holds color, and is also a reference to the Greek Goddess of Rainbows with the same name... Why MGA chose Chinese writing and then put Japanese Katakana below is beyond me. Probably translation errors which is quite disrespectful, but I have no right to speak on that.
The katakana actually translates to Team Spark (チームスパーク), so I think it's just going for the effect of having multiple languages on an outfit. Like how we see on products such as Super Dry. I don't think it was a translation error.
The japanese word for rainbow is Niji-iro(pronounced like what i write but is not written that way lmao) so it is not so awfull far from the made-up japanese word you tried to translate, but yes, it is chinese(since i too was guessing wtf those kanji were but i noticed soon enough it wasn't japanese in that part of the words of the sleeve), so i have to praise your eye for noticing it too. It also annoys me a lil bit but i also do understand that is just a mocking of those "random asian words on a western jacket" type of products, so there could probably be some mistake or just a creative choice.
That Louis Vuitton bag was literally a collab originally with a Japanese company that was released in the early 2000s, the cheek for mga to say that THEY’RE copying them is astounding😭
Oh, the doxxing absolutely happened. The reason Michael deleted his social media was because he was forced to by MGA before being placed on employee probation due to his behavior. You probably wouldn't have been able to find much of his online history anyways though, as he's always kept private accounts and was only active in private groups. A lot of us watched the doxxing as it went down and the victim has since updated to say that both MGA and Michael issued personal apologies after some back and forth with MGA's lawyers, but never a public acknowledgment. They seem inclined to sweep the incident away. Awesome hair, btw!
To answer a few questions: - Yes that minor was doxxed. I, and much of the RH community were following the designer at the time and he posted a temporary instagram story of a Google Maps image with some quirky "hehe let's chat!! :3" with the minors real address. He really thought he did something there.. It was SWIFTLY deleted. Rainbow High never said a word about it and swept it under the rug, even though "FIRE HIM" was spammed under all of thier social media posts for weeks on end. His social media was deleted. (He's been back btw just low key) Nobody knows if any legal action were taken, but said minor is part of the community and we believe they just can't mention anything at all for legality reasons. - Winter Break Jade and a few other dolls are VERY prone to being stained like yours. :( Winter Break Jade / Ruby, Jett Dawson, Stella Monroe, and Emi Vanda all have pretty significant issues with the majority of thier dols being stained from thier clothing. :/ (You're going to lose it when Shadow High comes out, there's a few tiny leaks of them floating around right now but they're SO YOU!!)
The odd thing with the quality control is that it's only on specific dolls. The entire winter break line will almost never have flaws, except Jade and Ruby. And with series 3, the only characters that seem to come with major defects ever are Daria and Emi. It's just odd Also another issue is that there are just random variants of certain dolls. Sheryl is advertised having heavy lip liner and dark eyebrows to reference 90s makeup trends, but for whatever reason, it's a toss up whether or not you'll get her actual makeup or a completely solid colored lip with light eyebrows
Exactly! My Daria came with her hand broken, and I saw from the reviews on Amazon that she was the one that was most commonly found with parts missing. Havent gotten Emi yet but we'll have to see.
I’ve been collecting RH since the very first wave after the rebrand from the slime monstrosities, and I am actively involved in the online doll community and I was there and can confirm that the head designer did in fact doxx that minor. The image shown along with the petition to get Michael Anderson fired is actually the screenshot of what he posted on his Instagram story just with the kids address scribbled out. Also Michael Anderson actually reactivated his Instagram a few months ago though it’s now private and he no longer posts about working at MGA.
Oh, the doxing DEFINITELY happened - there were a few pages with the evidence. Basically the kid got the doll off of Taobao and was posting them early right as series 3 was first being revealed. M. Scott antagonized this person by posting the original map picture in his stories which led to the lead designer first privating his social media and then deleting it and re-opening it quietly. During that time at least one other kid say they were similarly antagonized but that one didn't post more about it so take the second one with a grain of salt.
And he still buys dolls and supports the brand and buys the doll early still I think both sides are problematic he was so dramatic about and still bought new dolls like bro if I get doxed and be mad I won't support that brand like 2 yearsor ever but he after 2 days bought the dolls I dunno I think the both party's are problematic and the doexed kid would be mad at people supporting the brand and saying idc I just want dolls and rost them but he did the same thing even bought dolls early again he giving hypocrite
@@aliberry5922 he said MGA contacted him about the doxxing situation and he has gotten an apology, also there's more than just michael who designs the dolls
@@DoIIyMama still if you gonna support brand after doxxing at least wait the dolls be officially released he stills buys dolls that aren't yet released if he gets doxxed again this time its he's fault too I hope it never gets to that point
The doxxing thing definitely happened, he literally posted the kid's address on his story. He also threatened to doxx another account as well. MGA negotiated with the victim, and having him not be on social media was part of the agreement.
oh my lord, Negative Legend, every time I see, your hair style gets better and better! Like holy crap! Those dolls look really pretty but I'm not really a doll collector. XD
I'll admit I usually don't comment, but: 1- Fam you look even greater than usual today, I forgot to pay attention and had to rewind XD 2- I've never been super inclined to watch a doll analysis video, but I'm really glad I did. Everything from the tiny business statistics ramble at the beginning to the snowboarding reference to the shopping segment with the Miraculous doll cameo was fun and informative!
As someone who bought their Sunny doll the day Rainbow High dropped, I can say there ARE issues. Actually, my Sunny is the only one with no true issues. My Kia doll has one of her hands with no painted nails, and one of her shirts was ripped. I sewed up the ripped shirt but the nail is a big issue. I've just come to accept the fact that she paints the nails on her predominate hand so she can remember she uses that one . My other doll, Krystal, has SUCH crunchy hair. Like, I've had dolls with so much glue in their hair you can see it and I've gotten that out. But no matter what I do, her hair is still crunchy. Her legs, hands, and arms look like she was thrown against a wall multiple times as they're very scuffed up. There's other things like her hair constantly falling out and her eye paint being uneven, but those are less noticeable. i also once saw a doll in the store (rainbow high) missing a hand. just...no hand anywhere. I do want a couple more RH dolls, but I'm put off because of Krystal. It may just be her, but I don't know. I'll stick to collecting plushies. and yes that doxxing of a minor is true.
I am glad to know other people hate the Poopsie thing. How stupid can a doll-ish toy be? I am more trad fashion doll oriented in my collecting, but have some outliers, like one Blythe. I'm working on culling and refining now.
I love love looooove this series! My favorite thing about them is how they incorporate real life fashion. And idk, there’s something refreshing about following the lives of animated rich teenagers🤣
I recently bought a Rainbow High doll for my birthday, and i was very surprised at the level of packaging they put in the boxes. It was the HARDEST box I’ve ever opened and an absolute nightmare omg
I only have 2 Rainbow High dolls which are Daria and Georgia and they do have markings on some of their limbs, but they don't really bother me. When I was taking Daria's hands off to change her clothes, I noticed that the pegs on her hands are different. The left was longer and the right was shorter. The hand's peg broke inside and I swear I didn't break it. I would've heard it snap if I did. Luckily, the ball part that holds into the arm is still attatched.
If the snowboarder was wearing purple, I would go out this instant to buy her. Also, a snowboarder/ice-skater with scuffed/scratched legs...if I was the Marketing Team, I would pass that off as an "Intentional. Design Choice"
Your partner's excited comments were just the amount of adorable wholesomeness I needed today. And, as usual, excellent work from yourself on the video as a whole. I actually really enjoyed the business stats info you included. Lastly...really looking forward to more MH Movie reviews!!
I do buy from the store most of the time, so I usually have fairly decent dolls, but consumers have more rights for product replacements in Australia than they do in the US, so if there is a fault, I can just request replacements from the store or from MGA Aus direct. Have to say, I am really really happy that you covered Rainbow High. If you start collecting them, I will be SO HAPPY haha. Rainbow High and Lol OMG are the reasons I started collecting dolls. I always want to collect barbies as a kid but was always too ashamed. Now as an adult, i dont care! GIMME THE DOLLS!
I once received a defective Rainbow High doll from an online purchase ( I own all released to date) and I emailed their customer service to report it and I received a replacement in the mail within 3 days, the dolls are amazing and in a league of their own, I advise you to reach out to their customer service… I have nothing but praise for MGA and their products! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The mscott drama was real, he had posted a child's literal address on his Instagram story and a caption that said "Let's Talk" or something similar. Pretty sure Instagram banned him because of the doxxing and a bunch of people reporting him over it.
Netflix isn’t exactly the best place to watch the show since I don’t even think season two is on there yet and obviously they can’t update it every week for an episode. So watching it directly on UA-cam would be the best decision.
THE DOLLS LOOK SO COOL i get how there are some issues with like the dolls getting damaged or the packages just missing some things, but it's not as bad also, you look SO amazing oh my goodness I love how you look you're so pretty!!!
I love RH! I have a small collection & put all together they all look great! Yes quality control is an issue so I agree & definitely recommend picking them up in store, but aside from that; when you get a good one the doll ends up being phenomenal in comparison to even Barbie & they’re both play line. Like despite them being play line it feels like they were made with adult collectors in mind which would not only explain the details but also the price range. I definitely would recommend looking into getting others because majority of the ones out are so unique from each other. Series 3 is one of the newest waves & those don’t have the hair gel at all, you’ll definitely come across fallout but that’s pretty much expected but it’s not a big deal since they’re usually so thickly rooted. Emi, Carmen, Daphne, Gabriella, Daria, Bella, Simone, Harper & Margot are some of my personal favorites! Also everyone ships Jade & Bella and they’re ship name is Jella.
For the record I actually love hearing you talk about statistics & nerd stuff, not that I'm in the majority bc I know I'm privileged enough to understand & follow the topics, but just know that there are people out there who appreciate your thoughts so make sure you're aware they're there 🥰🥰🥰
While the dolls are expensive, they are very high quality with well thought out and put together outfits. I'm not a huge fan of the big heads and eyes (although I LOVE that commercial dolls have inset eyes), so I haven't been collecting them but I can admire good work when I see it. Might be good to hybrid with another head.
Quality control has been a major issue with mga at the moment, and It's prevented me from buying any dolls (not in "surprise" packaging) online. I understand that the dolls at at a very reasonable price point for their articulation and detail, but major issues are so frequent with the brand, and mga seems to be doing nothing to improve it. Also, omg your hair looks so good.
I got my first RH doll two days ago and I'm so impressed! The design, big amount of details, long thick hair, beautiful eyes and the list goes on... At first I wasn't big fan of them, but when I grabbed Violet in my hands and took her out of box, I felt in love!
Yeah, a lot of the problems you've experienced with Jade are still fairly common. I'm more of a customizer than a collector, but I do have a few Rainbow High dolls that are for displaying as is (and some for customs, still figuring out what I want to make first). What I am gonna say is that for the price point these dolls are at, I'm a little bummed that I've had a serious defect on pretty much every one I've bought that either wasn't noticable until the clothes came off, or I didn't get to pick because they were only available online. There have been a ton of supply issues, some characters never make it to my retailers (still can't find Emi Vanda, very sad about it). My Stella and Daria were both stained on their skin because of their clothes, but because I contacted MGA's help desk, they were willing to replace the parts that were broken. I'm sadly about to do the same with Winter Break Violet, who I adore, but it sucks that her cheeks came stained with some kind of glue, I can't scrub it off with soap. I will say, in regards to articulation, you're correct. The only doll I know of with ankle joints is Jett Dawson, who was pretty exclusive, and her joint was a bit funky. I will say though, so glad these dolls are FINALLY getting neck articulation, they didn't have it originally and it sucked. Now if we can just fix the knee so it works like a double joint, that would be great. I will say, definitely keep an eye out, given your style, I think you'd like what they're cooking up for Shadow High. So far it's been leaks only, but what we've seen is so cool, I can't believe they're so monochrome and edgy.
THAT IS ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD TO KNOW, THANK YOU! Cause I joined a project, as a volunteer hobby voice actress, about this exact show, now I at least know what I participated in, so thank you XD
Hi, as someone who has been in the rainbow high fandom since early october 2020 i can confirm the doxxing incident is 100% true, i saw the story the creator posted it’s real.
They are actually pretty good about replacing faulty items or parts! Also I personally love that there are some makeup differences from doll to doll and I enjoy finding the ones with softer makeup. Also magic eraser works on a lot of marks! But I do wish they sold fashion packs of the outfits so you don't have to buy a doll to get an outfit
Super side note that's unrelated. When I introduced Rainbow High to my sibling, I also made her search the brand itself MGA. It being late at night that time, she was lazy so she didn't put MGA in all caps when searching anymore. As Filipinos, this totally changed the meaning of the company for me because "mga" literally is just the plural form of any noun after that word in Tagalog. So when I asked her to search "MGA dolls", they searched "mga dolls" instead and google just gave her literally any doll image as long as there were many in one photo. I can never pronounce and take MGA seriously every again because MGA toys and MGA dolls just translates to "toys" and "dolls" HAHAHAHA
This is the first doll series I actually started collecting! Missed the EAH and MH doll train so now they're way too expensive (my wallet is better for that) but also the quality of the RH clothing is top quality for a fashion doll line and gets better with every series, I bought Delilah Fields from the newest line and her jeans have *working front and back pockets* like I took off her earrings and they fit in them!!! Which is absolutely adorable and literally better than most of my jeans
The hair loss is just initial, it happens to with all dolls, maybe if they’re meticulously handmade not but yeah. With the scuffs and paint on the dolls it’s something ive found with almost all dolls ive bought from that brand. They’re usually small and not that noticeable but it bothers me sometimes. Usually ive found them on the legs, i think it’s because of the material the legs are made of. LOL doll legs (omg dolls?) theyre softer and its easier to imprint stuff and or scratch the doll.
I’m not a doll collector but I think the doll are cool. They do have a UA-cam channel on the series that you forgot to talk about but that’s ok. I’m more into the series then dolls anyway.
Just got my first rainbow high dolls this week, and I was actually surprised at how much hair fell out, but other than that I really like these dolls. I also just love that they had one inspired by Cher from Clueless.
i really adore rainbow high dolls, but they definitely are nowhere near perfect dolls. when they first released, the shine on their face was so severe they just looked sweaty. the ankle articulation comment is really interesting to me actually because there is only one rainbow high doll with ankle articulation, that doll being the collector jett dawson (and the giant amaya but i dont count her.) really enjoyed your review of them! hope youll cover the show in the future! its very queer.
I have 15 of the RH dolls lol, almost 16-17 come my birthday in a few days. They are beautiful and Ive been fortunate to not have any major defects. Most I've had are small random dots of paint or overgeled hair 🤗
I was SUPER excited about the rainbow high dolls and wanted one but after seeing them in person, the faces just freak me out too much lol (yet somehow I love the LOL OMG and Tween dolls. Maybe it was just Moonlight BB that completely swayed me lol)
This is incredibly informative to someone who only has a vague understanding of collectible dolls, also your hair looks incredible here, and seeing you and your partner gush about dolls made me smile lol. Your videos just have a very homey feel at this point because I've seen so many previous ones that are more in line with my interests
It's been months since I last watched one of your videos, and seeing how long your hair has gotten gave me massive whiplash. YOU LOOK AMAZING THOUGH AAAAAA
I was really into doll collecting during Quarantine. But I actually wanted to get older dolls first before the new ones (aka old Barbie dolls and Ever After High). In fact, Winter Jade IS my first RH doll. Her design is just so eye catching!!!!
I bought series two Amaya, and her second outfit was missing so I sent her back. Beyond that, I have three Rainbow High dolls and I absolutely adore them. Definitely my favorite dolls I own at this moment.
I have 11 rainbow high dolls and I haven’t had any issues so far with quality control (thank god) but I HAVE seen defective dolls in the store (specifically target) some have messed up rooting, sometimes the makeup doesn’t match or its misprinted, sometimes the dolls names on the boxes will be misspelled, sometimes the doll eyes are wonky, sometimes the painting on the accessories will leave paint stains, you literally have to play inspector and heavily inspect the dolls to make sure there aren’t any issues or else you’re buying a doll with one arm shorter than the other (which HAS happened to me with one of my bratz dolls lol)
me seeing "what is rainbow high?" in my recommended me with my almost complete collection (only missing 2 dolls as of march 2022): huh, what is rainbow high?
As a Rainbow High collector, yeah the MGA quality control is questionable at best. I can't get out easily, so I buy most of my dolls online with mixed results. I have an Amaya (series 2) who literally has two different size eyes like the face got messed up in the mold or something. Their hands are designed to be removable for easier outfit changes, but with some of the dolls it's a struggle to get them in and out. Some other issues like makeup errors can be fixed with artistic talent except that's a thing I don't have. At the end of the day, the dolls are at least gorgeous from a distance, and they can't be that bad cause I keep buying them. Also, you should watch the show because it's a lot of fun
its nice to hear the opinion of someone who hasnt been collecting since day 1! I think the dolls are some of the best on the market right now, and the designs and what they're giving us just keep getting better. The main problem is the community. It seems like they don't really take the time and realize just how high quality they are and would rather cry to mga for a whole replacement doll just because of minor issues.
As a kid I kinda thought I'd never grow out of baby dolls, but as soon as I figured out American Girl was a thing and actually got my first AG doll, I immediately grew out of baby dolls and I have never wanted another brand of doll since then. Therefore, I have no real interest in Rainbow High--although, that Miraculous doll _did_ catch my attention.
The M Scott controversy was real… I’m in the fandom on Instagram and I remember the day it happened so clearly. It was so ridiculous too bc the brand leaks early all the time, like nearly every release. It wasn’t the first time someone bought a doll before release and it wasn’t the last. The person doxxed wasn’t even the seller.
@@Illogical_Tales yes, glue inside their heads to secure the hair plugs. However over time they would yellow the doll's heads and seep out of the holes making the entire hair disgusting and sticky. Some dolls already came with sticky hair from the box, like it didn't take years of play for this to happen. The only way to get it out was to either use baby powder or wash it with a specific product. Hair gel however can easily be removed with just water :)
I do currently own 11 Rainbow High dolls and can say for certain that quality control is a big issue. I love the small details that they put into the dolls but some of my doll's clothes literally came broken. For example, I bought Kia Heart from a local target. She was the last one left and I have been really wanting her for a while. When I got home and took her out of the package I noticed that on her jean jacket one of her patches was coming off. I was extremely disappointed because she was supposed to be a special edition (aka more money) and she was already breaking. I do really like the dolls but, MGA really needs to fix issues like this.
I have never been a doll person, as a kid I preferred plastic and plush animals and metal cars, when I grew up, I stayed a collector (Breyer, Peter Stone model horses). However when I saw the Rainbow High dolls for the first time, I fell in love. The main appeal for me was fully movable jointed body that looked more realistic in shape than barbie body type, soft long hair of unusual colors and beautiful faces with huge eyes. And I couldn't resist buying Ruby Andersen from the first series, and that sparked my love for these dolls even more. I just find them so much cuter than any other dolls. Quality is not that bad - I bought online all that I own/owned (I had 20, but after cleaning my collection few months ago, I donated half of them to the kids shelter), and got just one case with doll with dark spot on her face, one case with locked unmovable knee joint, and one with very noticeable seams and scratches on her legs, but these are still mass produced toys and some small things just happen and most of the flaws is fixable.
I got the 80 dollar Chinese New Year doll because I saw her in a TikTok and she was just absolutely too gorgeous. The quality isn’t the best, she has mistakes in her makeup and marks on her back. Neither are noticeable unless pointed out so I wasn’t bothered too much. She was my first rainbow high doll because I personally cannot stand the shimmer they have on their faces , imo it makes them look greasy and her shimmer wasn’t as extreme as others. I love the doll besides the mistakes and thought to buy another doll that was also less sparkly for customizing and her hair was perfect like she was fresh out of Box but the second I touched it it just shed alot! I ended up washing all the gel out of her hair and there was a hairball about as big as her head. I dare not touch the hair on my CNY doll
I really like these Rainbow High dolls, but I just can't start a new doll collection, due to the fact that I'm broke as a joke. But both Georgia Bloom and Vanessa Tempo are really tempting me.
Your fit and hair In this video is phenomenal and also the part where you talked about the statistics (even though I got none of it) was so interesting
**This has more about MGA than I prefer so it felt slow to start since I'm here to watch for Rainbow High itself. Your hair in this video is really fluffy in this video and the style in the closeup part looks great on you. I’m glad you like their looks! I really love RH designs.
i own multiple rainbow high dolls all from different eras one from their initial release another one a little later and one recently and they all look super different and diff in quality also their stands changed

In my opinion a bit more Lorie strode (Halloween )
Fun fact (because this was bugging me) - the lettering "彩虹" (Cǎihóng) is actually the Chinese spelling for "rainbow". I initially thought it was Japanese too, as someone who is learning the language, but couldn't for the life of me find out what "Sainiji" or "Ayaniji" meant. If you flip it around, "虹彩" (Kousai) is the Japanese word for "Iris" referring to the part of your eye that holds color, and is also a reference to the Greek Goddess of Rainbows with the same name... Why MGA chose Chinese writing and then put Japanese Katakana below is beyond me. Probably translation errors which is quite disrespectful, but I have no right to speak on that.
The katakana actually translates to Team Spark (チームスパーク), so I think it's just going for the effect of having multiple languages on an outfit. Like how we see on products such as Super Dry. I don't think it was a translation error.

That Louis Vuitton bag was literally a collab originally with a Japanese company that was released in the early 2000s, the cheek for mga to say that THEY’RE copying them is astounding😭
Yeah, I was thinking I've seen it since I was a child, but I guessed I was just confused. Thank you for confirming
Oh, the doxxing absolutely happened. The reason Michael deleted his social media was because he was forced to by MGA before being placed on employee probation due to his behavior. You probably wouldn't have been able to find much of his online history anyways though, as he's always kept private accounts and was only active in private groups. A lot of us watched the doxxing as it went down and the victim has since updated to say that both MGA and Michael issued personal apologies after some back and forth with MGA's lawyers, but never a public acknowledgment. They seem inclined to sweep the incident away.
Awesome hair, btw!
Your hair is looking STUNNING, and so is the look today
Omg okay unrelated to the content but you look SO GORGEOUS here omg 😳💖🌈
OMG thank you~
I love your style. I wish I had the confidence to break out of my comfort zone.
I was gonna say that lol
You look like elf royalty 10/10 absolutely fabulous
So true! The eyes are just stunning!
When your faves show support for each other...🙌
To answer a few questions:
- Yes that minor was doxxed. I, and much of the RH community were following the designer at the time and he posted a temporary instagram story of a Google Maps image with some quirky "hehe let's chat!! :3" with the minors real address. He really thought he did something there.. It was SWIFTLY deleted. Rainbow High never said a word about it and swept it under the rug, even though "FIRE HIM" was spammed under all of thier social media posts for weeks on end. His social media was deleted. (He's been back btw just low key) Nobody knows if any legal action were taken, but said minor is part of the community and we believe they just can't mention anything at all for legality reasons.
- Winter Break Jade and a few other dolls are VERY prone to being stained like yours. :( Winter Break Jade / Ruby, Jett Dawson, Stella Monroe, and Emi Vanda all have pretty significant issues with the majority of thier dols being stained from thier clothing. :/
(You're going to lose it when Shadow High comes out, there's a few tiny leaks of them floating around right now but they're SO YOU!!)
I just don't get why he thought that would be a good idea
The odd thing with the quality control is that it's only on specific dolls. The entire winter break line will almost never have flaws, except Jade and Ruby. And with series 3, the only characters that seem to come with major defects ever are Daria and Emi. It's just odd
Also another issue is that there are just random variants of certain dolls. Sheryl is advertised having heavy lip liner and dark eyebrows to reference 90s makeup trends, but for whatever reason, it's a toss up whether or not you'll get her actual makeup or a completely solid colored lip with light eyebrows
I noticed that with series 3!!! Emi has the unfortunate staining on her hands from the black sweatshirt…I couldn’t get it off
Exactly! My Daria came with her hand broken, and I saw from the reviews on Amazon that she was the one that was most commonly found with parts missing. Havent gotten Emi yet but we'll have to see.
@@deadflowers2383 I got Emi and she’s fine except for a few stains
I got Daria, and so far, nothing bad!
@@rorysvillage5769 that's good!! Mine came with terribly painted nails and stains on her arms but I was able to fix both
I’ve been collecting RH since the very first wave after the rebrand from the slime monstrosities, and I am actively involved in the online doll community and I was there and can confirm that the head designer did in fact doxx that minor. The image shown along with the petition to get Michael Anderson fired is actually the screenshot of what he posted on his Instagram story just with the kids address scribbled out. Also Michael Anderson actually reactivated his Instagram a few months ago though it’s now private and he no longer posts about working at MGA.
"Thank god Slime is no longer involved with rainbow high dolls" uh oh...about that...
Oh, the doxing DEFINITELY happened - there were a few pages with the evidence. Basically the kid got the doll off of Taobao and was posting them early right as series 3 was first being revealed. M. Scott antagonized this person by posting the original map picture in his stories which led to the lead designer first privating his social media and then deleting it and re-opening it quietly. During that time at least one other kid say they were similarly antagonized but that one didn't post more about it so take the second one with a grain of salt.
Also some doll UA-camrs talked about it specifically.
And he still buys dolls and supports the brand and buys the doll early still I think both sides are problematic he was so dramatic about and still bought new dolls like bro if I get doxed and be mad I won't support that brand like 2 yearsor ever but he after 2 days bought the dolls I dunno I think the both party's are problematic and the doexed kid would be mad at people supporting the brand and saying idc I just want dolls and rost them but he did the same thing even bought dolls early again he giving hypocrite
I'm still mad about the doxing situation but the second victim admitted calling m scott a slur. Im not justifying the dox but wtf.
@@aliberry5922 he said MGA contacted him about the doxxing situation and he has gotten an apology, also there's more than just michael who designs the dolls
@@DoIIyMama still if you gonna support brand after doxxing at least wait the dolls be officially released he stills buys dolls that aren't yet released if he gets doxxed again this time its he's fault too I hope it never gets to that point
The doxxing thing definitely happened, he literally posted the kid's address on his story. He also threatened to doxx another account as well. MGA negotiated with the victim, and having him not be on social media was part of the agreement.
oh my lord, Negative Legend, every time I see, your hair style gets better and better! Like holy crap!
Those dolls look really pretty but I'm not really a doll collector. XD
I'll admit I usually don't comment, but:
1- Fam you look even greater than usual today, I forgot to pay attention and had to rewind XD
2- I've never been super inclined to watch a doll analysis video, but I'm really glad I did. Everything from the tiny business statistics ramble at the beginning to the snowboarding reference to the shopping segment with the Miraculous doll cameo was fun and informative!
As someone who bought their Sunny doll the day Rainbow High dropped, I can say there ARE issues. Actually, my Sunny is the only one with no true issues.
My Kia doll has one of her hands with no painted nails, and one of her shirts was ripped. I sewed up the ripped shirt but the nail is a big issue. I've just come to accept the fact that she paints the nails on her predominate hand so she can remember she uses that one
.
My other doll, Krystal, has SUCH crunchy hair. Like, I've had dolls with so much glue in their hair you can see it and I've gotten that out. But no matter what I do, her hair is still crunchy. Her legs, hands, and arms look like she was thrown against a wall multiple times as they're very scuffed up. There's other things like her hair constantly falling out and her eye paint being uneven, but those are less noticeable.
i also once saw a doll in the store (rainbow high) missing a hand. just...no hand anywhere.
I do want a couple more RH dolls, but I'm put off because of Krystal. It may just be her, but I don't know. I'll stick to collecting plushies.
and yes that doxxing of a minor is true.
bro the way i'm fixated on rainbow high rn & you release this? you just might be an empath 😳😳😳😳
I am still stuck on the fact that the company who make those poopsie unicorn shits is the same company who made Bratz.....HOW?
I am glad to know other people hate the Poopsie thing. How stupid can a doll-ish toy be? I am more trad fashion doll oriented in my collecting, but have some outliers, like one Blythe. I'm working on culling and refining now.
I love love looooove this series! My favorite thing about them is how they incorporate real life fashion.
And idk, there’s something refreshing about following the lives of animated rich teenagers🤣
I recently bought a Rainbow High doll for my birthday, and i was very surprised at the level of packaging they put in the boxes. It was the HARDEST box I’ve ever opened and an absolute nightmare omg
I only have 2 Rainbow High dolls which are Daria and Georgia and they do have markings on some of their limbs, but they don't really bother me. When I was taking Daria's hands off to change her clothes, I noticed that the pegs on her hands are different. The left was longer and the right was shorter. The hand's peg broke inside and I swear I didn't break it. I would've heard it snap if I did. Luckily, the ball part that holds into the arm is still attatched.
If the snowboarder was wearing purple, I would go out this instant to buy her.
Also, a snowboarder/ice-skater with scuffed/scratched legs...if I was the Marketing Team, I would pass that off as an "Intentional. Design Choice"
Your partner's excited comments were just the amount of adorable wholesomeness I needed today. And, as usual, excellent work from yourself on the video as a whole. I actually really enjoyed the business stats info you included. Lastly...really looking forward to more MH Movie reviews!!
Rainbow High dolls brought back my love of doll collecting that I lost after Ever After High dolls got discontinued. They are so freaking pretty!
I do buy from the store most of the time, so I usually have fairly decent dolls, but consumers have more rights for product replacements in Australia than they do in the US, so if there is a fault, I can just request replacements from the store or from MGA Aus direct. Have to say, I am really really happy that you covered Rainbow High. If you start collecting them, I will be SO HAPPY haha. Rainbow High and Lol OMG are the reasons I started collecting dolls. I always want to collect barbies as a kid but was always too ashamed. Now as an adult, i dont care! GIMME THE DOLLS!
I once received a defective Rainbow High doll from an online purchase ( I own all released to date) and I emailed their customer service to report it and I received a replacement in the mail within 3 days, the dolls are amazing and in a league of their own, I advise you to reach out to their customer service…
I have nothing but praise for MGA and their products! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The mscott drama was real, he had posted a child's literal address on his Instagram story and a caption that said "Let's Talk" or something similar. Pretty sure Instagram banned him because of the doxxing and a bunch of people reporting him over it.
These dolls are so gorgeous. Maybe once I get more room, I want to snatch the one that looks like Cher from Clueless. ❤️
Would love to see a review for their Netflix show
I believe the Netflix one isn’t caught up so they can watch all of it on the rainbow high UA-cam
Netflix isn’t exactly the best place to watch the show since I don’t even think season two is on there yet and obviously they can’t update it every week for an episode. So watching it directly on UA-cam would be the best decision.
THE DOLLS LOOK SO COOL
i get how there are some issues with like the dolls getting damaged or the packages just missing some things, but it's not as bad
also, you look SO amazing oh my goodness I love how you look you're so pretty!!!
I love RH! I have a small collection & put all together they all look great! Yes quality control is an issue so I agree & definitely recommend picking them up in store, but aside from that; when you get a good one the doll ends up being phenomenal in comparison to even Barbie & they’re both play line. Like despite them being play line it feels like they were made with adult collectors in mind which would not only explain the details but also the price range. I definitely would recommend looking into getting others because majority of the ones out are so unique from each other. Series 3 is one of the newest waves & those don’t have the hair gel at all, you’ll definitely come across fallout but that’s pretty much expected but it’s not a big deal since they’re usually so thickly rooted. Emi, Carmen, Daphne, Gabriella, Daria, Bella, Simone, Harper & Margot are some of my personal favorites! Also everyone ships Jade & Bella and they’re ship name is Jella.
For the record I actually love hearing you talk about statistics & nerd stuff, not that I'm in the majority bc I know I'm privileged enough to understand & follow the topics, but just know that there are people out there who appreciate your thoughts so make sure you're aware they're there 🥰🥰🥰
While the dolls are expensive, they are very high quality with well thought out and put together outfits. I'm not a huge fan of the big heads and eyes (although I LOVE that commercial dolls have inset eyes), so I haven't been collecting them but I can admire good work when I see it. Might be good to hybrid with another head.
I'm loving the hair! Giving very dignified and fun, ugh you look so good!
something a lot of the earlier dolls had was that their clothes would NOT fit them. usually it was pants that were too toght
You look more and more magnificent with every upload I swear
Quality control has been a major issue with mga at the moment, and It's prevented me from buying any dolls (not in "surprise" packaging) online. I understand that the dolls at at a very reasonable price point for their articulation and detail, but major issues are so frequent with the brand, and mga seems to be doing nothing to improve it. Also, omg your hair looks so good.
I got my first RH doll two days ago and I'm so impressed! The design, big amount of details, long thick hair, beautiful eyes and the list goes on... At first I wasn't big fan of them, but when I grabbed Violet in my hands and took her out of box, I felt in love!
If these had been around when I was younger, I would have absolutely ADORED these. Would have been on every single Christmas and birthday list omg
Yeah, a lot of the problems you've experienced with Jade are still fairly common. I'm more of a customizer than a collector, but I do have a few Rainbow High dolls that are for displaying as is (and some for customs, still figuring out what I want to make first). What I am gonna say is that for the price point these dolls are at, I'm a little bummed that I've had a serious defect on pretty much every one I've bought that either wasn't noticable until the clothes came off, or I didn't get to pick because they were only available online. There have been a ton of supply issues, some characters never make it to my retailers (still can't find Emi Vanda, very sad about it). My Stella and Daria were both stained on their skin because of their clothes, but because I contacted MGA's help desk, they were willing to replace the parts that were broken. I'm sadly about to do the same with Winter Break Violet, who I adore, but it sucks that her cheeks came stained with some kind of glue, I can't scrub it off with soap.
I will say, in regards to articulation, you're correct. The only doll I know of with ankle joints is Jett Dawson, who was pretty exclusive, and her joint was a bit funky. I will say though, so glad these dolls are FINALLY getting neck articulation, they didn't have it originally and it sucked. Now if we can just fix the knee so it works like a double joint, that would be great. I will say, definitely keep an eye out, given your style, I think you'd like what they're cooking up for Shadow High. So far it's been leaks only, but what we've seen is so cool, I can't believe they're so monochrome and edgy.
THAT IS ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD TO KNOW, THANK YOU!
Cause I joined a project, as a volunteer hobby voice actress, about this exact show, now I at least know what I participated in, so thank you XD
Hi, as someone who has been in the rainbow high fandom since early october 2020 i can confirm the doxxing incident is 100% true, i saw the story the creator posted it’s real.
First of all 😭🙌🏾 can we appreciate how good negative looks in this ep and the hair 🙌🏾
The way I literally bought a Sunny doll last week 🧍🏼
They are actually pretty good about replacing faulty items or parts! Also I personally love that there are some makeup differences from doll to doll and I enjoy finding the ones with softer makeup. Also magic eraser works on a lot of marks! But I do wish they sold fashion packs of the outfits so you don't have to buy a doll to get an outfit
okay I just can't get over how gorgeous your hair looks 😍 I actually gasped
Whoa… you’re covering Rainbow High?! That’s great, you gotta cover the Web series on UA-cam, it’s pretty good!
Super side note that's unrelated. When I introduced Rainbow High to my sibling, I also made her search the brand itself MGA. It being late at night that time, she was lazy so she didn't put MGA in all caps when searching anymore.
As Filipinos, this totally changed the meaning of the company for me because "mga" literally is just the plural form of any noun after that word in Tagalog. So when I asked her to search "MGA dolls", they searched "mga dolls" instead and google just gave her literally any doll image as long as there were many in one photo. I can never pronounce and take MGA seriously every again because MGA toys and MGA dolls just translates to "toys" and "dolls" HAHAHAHA
This is the first doll series I actually started collecting! Missed the EAH and MH doll train so now they're way too expensive (my wallet is better for that) but also the quality of the RH clothing is top quality for a fashion doll line and gets better with every series, I bought Delilah Fields from the newest line and her jeans have *working front and back pockets* like I took off her earrings and they fit in them!!! Which is absolutely adorable and literally better than most of my jeans
The hair loss is just initial, it happens to with all dolls, maybe if they’re meticulously handmade not but yeah.
With the scuffs and paint on the dolls it’s something ive found with almost all dolls ive bought from that brand. They’re usually small and not that noticeable but it bothers me sometimes. Usually ive found them on the legs, i think it’s because of the material the legs are made of. LOL doll legs (omg dolls?) theyre softer and its easier to imprint stuff and or scratch the doll.
Hey annabelle lee
I’m not a doll collector but I think the doll are cool. They do have a UA-cam channel on the series that you forgot to talk about but that’s ok. I’m more into the series then dolls anyway.
Just got my first rainbow high dolls this week, and I was actually surprised at how much hair fell out, but other than that I really like these dolls.
I also just love that they had one inspired by Cher from Clueless.
i really adore rainbow high dolls, but they definitely are nowhere near perfect dolls. when they first released, the shine on their face was so severe they just looked sweaty. the ankle articulation comment is really interesting to me actually because there is only one rainbow high doll with ankle articulation, that doll being the collector jett dawson (and the giant amaya but i dont count her.)
really enjoyed your review of them! hope youll cover the show in the future! its very queer.
I have 15 of the RH dolls lol, almost 16-17 come my birthday in a few days. They are beautiful and Ive been fortunate to not have any major defects. Most I've had are small random dots of paint or overgeled hair 🤗
Giving me massive 80s final girl vibes and I love it
Y'all are so cute while nerding out over dolls
I was SUPER excited about the rainbow high dolls and wanted one but after seeing them in person, the faces just freak me out too much lol (yet somehow I love the LOL OMG and Tween dolls. Maybe it was just Moonlight BB that completely swayed me lol)
This is incredibly informative to someone who only has a vague understanding of collectible dolls, also your hair looks incredible here, and seeing you and your partner gush about dolls made me smile lol. Your videos just have a very homey feel at this point because I've seen so many previous ones that are more in line with my interests
Can't collect the dolls but I'm absolutely obsessed with the show!!!!
It's been months since I last watched one of your videos, and seeing how long your hair has gotten gave me massive whiplash. YOU LOOK AMAZING THOUGH AAAAAA
OMG I literally JUST got into RH like yesterday and then this pops up haha! (loved your shopping trip to Target so cute! :) )
I was really into doll collecting during Quarantine. But I actually wanted to get older dolls first before the new ones (aka old Barbie dolls and Ever After High). In fact, Winter Jade IS my first RH doll. Her design is just so eye catching!!!!
I love when you talk about toys and toy companies.
I bought series two Amaya, and her second outfit was missing so I sent her back. Beyond that, I have three Rainbow High dolls and I absolutely adore them. Definitely my favorite dolls I own at this moment.
i couldnt stop looking at your hair. this hairstyle looks really nice on you. Otherwise really good video as usual
Amazing video I love doll analyses! And I’m loving your look🤩
I have 11 rainbow high dolls and I haven’t had any issues so far with quality control (thank god) but I HAVE seen defective dolls in the store (specifically target) some have messed up rooting, sometimes the makeup doesn’t match or its misprinted, sometimes the dolls names on the boxes will be misspelled, sometimes the doll eyes are wonky, sometimes the painting on the accessories will leave paint stains, you literally have to play inspector and heavily inspect the dolls to make sure there aren’t any issues or else you’re buying a doll with one arm shorter than the other (which HAS happened to me with one of my bratz dolls lol)
Wow! I can't believe your Target still had Karma in stock. I haven't seen her where I live in months.
me seeing "what is rainbow high?" in my recommended
me with my almost complete collection (only missing 2 dolls as of march 2022): huh, what is rainbow high?
As a Rainbow High collector, yeah the MGA quality control is questionable at best. I can't get out easily, so I buy most of my dolls online with mixed results. I have an Amaya (series 2) who literally has two different size eyes like the face got messed up in the mold or something. Their hands are designed to be removable for easier outfit changes, but with some of the dolls it's a struggle to get them in and out. Some other issues like makeup errors can be fixed with artistic talent except that's a thing I don't have. At the end of the day, the dolls are at least gorgeous from a distance, and they can't be that bad cause I keep buying them. Also, you should watch the show because it's a lot of fun
its nice to hear the opinion of someone who hasnt been collecting since day 1! I think the dolls are some of the best on the market right now, and the designs and what they're giving us just keep getting better. The main problem is the community. It seems like they don't really take the time and realize just how high quality they are and would rather cry to mga for a whole replacement doll just because of minor issues.
As a kid I kinda thought I'd never grow out of baby dolls, but as soon as I figured out American Girl was a thing and actually got my first AG doll, I immediately grew out of baby dolls and I have never wanted another brand of doll since then. Therefore, I have no real interest in Rainbow High--although, that Miraculous doll _did_ catch my attention.
The M Scott controversy was real… I’m in the fandom on Instagram and I remember the day it happened so clearly. It was so ridiculous too bc the brand leaks early all the time, like nearly every release. It wasn’t the first time someone bought a doll before release and it wasn’t the last. The person doxxed wasn’t even the seller.
Keeping in mind doll hair gel (like RH) is not the same as hair GLUE (like with Monster High) :)
Monster High dolls had _hair glue??_
@@Illogical_Tales yes, glue inside their heads to secure the hair plugs. However over time they would yellow the doll's heads and seep out of the holes making the entire hair disgusting and sticky. Some dolls already came with sticky hair from the box, like it didn't take years of play for this to happen. The only way to get it out was to either use baby powder or wash it with a specific product.
Hair gel however can easily be removed with just water :)
I am so obsessed with this doll line. They are so detailed. Also your hair looks absolutely amazing.
I do currently own 11 Rainbow High dolls and can say for certain that quality control is a big issue. I love the small details that they put into the dolls but some of my doll's clothes literally came broken. For example, I bought Kia Heart from a local target. She was the last one left and I have been really wanting her for a while. When I got home and took her out of the package I noticed that on her jean jacket one of her patches was coming off. I was extremely disappointed because she was supposed to be a special edition (aka more money) and she was already breaking.
I do really like the dolls but, MGA really needs to fix issues like this.
your hair and makeup today??? STUNNING. I mean you've always been turning out looks but the hair today oh my god
13:54 this would be a great meme😂🤣

I have never been a doll person, as a kid I preferred plastic and plush animals and metal cars, when I grew up, I stayed a collector (Breyer, Peter Stone model horses). However when I saw the Rainbow High dolls for the first time, I fell in love. The main appeal for me was fully movable jointed body that looked more realistic in shape than barbie body type, soft long hair of unusual colors and beautiful faces with huge eyes. And I couldn't resist buying Ruby Andersen from the first series, and that sparked my love for these dolls even more. I just find them so much cuter than any other dolls. Quality is not that bad - I bought online all that I own/owned (I had 20, but after cleaning my collection few months ago, I donated half of them to the kids shelter), and got just one case with doll with dark spot on her face, one case with locked unmovable knee joint, and one with very noticeable seams and scratches on her legs, but these are still mass produced toys and some small things just happen and most of the flaws is fixable.
I know others have mentioned it, but your make-up is amazing in this vid. There's just so much going on, but it's so subtle and intriguing.
Omg yes I was waiting for you to talk about this series
I got the 80 dollar Chinese New Year doll because I saw her in a TikTok and she was just absolutely too gorgeous. The quality isn’t the best, she has mistakes in her makeup and marks on her back. Neither are noticeable unless pointed out so I wasn’t bothered too much. She was my first rainbow high doll because I personally cannot stand the shimmer they have on their faces , imo it makes them look greasy and her shimmer wasn’t as extreme as others. I love the doll besides the mistakes and thought to buy another doll that was also less sparkly for customizing and her hair was perfect like she was fresh out of Box but the second I touched it it just shed alot! I ended up washing all the gel out of her hair and there was a hairball about as big as her head. I dare not touch the hair on my CNY doll
I really like these Rainbow High dolls, but I just can't start a new doll collection, due to the fact that I'm broke as a joke. But both Georgia Bloom and Vanessa Tempo are really tempting me.
I cant help but point out how great you look in this vid, the hair especially is so goooooood
You look better every video. I love your hair right now
unrealted but you are looking incredibly good today!
and i just looked at the comment and i am not alone in this sentiment apparently
I'm so happy my daughter is not at the doll stage yet. Still into stuffed animals and other toddler stuff. $2 for a colouring book is great
Idk y but I'm getting a barbie/breakfast at Tiffany's vibe from your outfit and im living for it
Your fit and hair In this video is phenomenal and also the part where you talked about the statistics (even though I got none of it) was so interesting
YAY YAY YAY IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS VIDEO IM SO FIXATED ON RAINBOW HIGH AND THE FANDOM IS SO SMALL HOPEFULLY MORE PEOPLE GET INTO IT BECAUSE OF THIS
You look so good!!! The makeup suits you very well!
I don't even know why I'm here, but I find these videos fascinating nonetheless.
Ladies and Gentlemen I have a few words to say
Poppy is best girl
FACTS
poppy and sunny best girls hands down
@@Chappillie Yas , maybe Violet
Tied with Maya!
I love the dolls. Their hair is so nice.
I got an ad for rainbow high before watching this so if that was planned good job umm if you didn’t ummm I think I’m on some kind of list
**This has more about MGA than I prefer so it felt slow to start since I'm here to watch for Rainbow High itself.
Your hair in this video is really fluffy in this video and the style in the closeup part looks great on you.
I’m glad you like their looks! I really love RH designs.
i own multiple rainbow high dolls all from different eras one from their initial release another one a little later and one recently and they all look super different and diff in quality also their stands changed
i kinda want to take one of these dolls and then go out and buy all of the clothes she's wearing for myself.
Negative’s hair has been through a journey and I love it
