Mattel rlly be out here forgetting mh does in fact have at least around 60 different characters whom are not frankie, cleo, lagoona, clawdeen and *draculaura*
Well, they are making the characters that are going to make them a lot of money
FR
@@MIMINOSEC But there are a lot of other characters that would sell very well too, like Abbey, Spectra (thank god she finally got a collector), Venus, Rochelle, Ghoulia and Robecca just to name a few
@@caioveras863 as I already said, they are making MORE popular characters just to grab more money
@@caioveras863 they're already planning a Rochelle Goyle Haunt Couture doll to be released soon.
Its so revolting to see companies so blatantly exploiting their customers by releasing shitty products at unbelievable prices, and there’s still a portion of the community that will defend a multimillion dollar company over a real and struggling community. Also saying this doll is worth $50 is being too nice 😭 if this was a $50 rainbow high doll the conversation would be v different
Y’all ain’t oppressed by people buying things you aren’t buying, get over it.
@@madamplatypus313where did you pull that from
period people were so mad at the rh×sh costume ball dolls for being 30-40 dollars. And the same people be eating all these shit quality mh dolls up like bffr. 75dollars for this barbie fashionista material. like side eye
No what's revolting is you lot bitching and moaning when anime fans have it way worse would you say a 1/8 scale figure of Dabi from MHA is worth £170 and all he comes with is the stand to me no but since I'm such a big fan of him I want him to go with my Shoto collection isrfg ya'll act like you've got it wayyy worse
@@riddlerosehearts8277 Please explain how this is related.
The answer is they are not worth the money. Mattel is really abusing y’all
Frankie's pronouns are they/them 🙁
@@Pixiefaeee Only the g3 Frankie is non-binary, the g1 is a cis girl
@@Pixiefaeee that's only for G3 frankie. G1 and G2 frankie use she/her pronouns
@@Pixiefaeee You’re not a real fan because you’re clueless, because g1 and g3 are from different universes
@@caioveras863Weird that someone would try to correct that when Jay himself switches up she/they on Frankie all the time, including this very video.
Honestly I feel like this line would be so much better if they put more time into it.
It feels like they are rushing out all the collector dolls.
It would be dope to see this line with Abbey and Operetta instead!
Ooh, especially since Operetta wore masks. Kiyomi would be a nice addition too, as a faceless ghost her mask could be an actual face.
I've been feeling that in the lackluster clothing designs being hidden by loud prints.
@@tofanpurnomowaisaka503 kiyomi would be such an awesome character for them to bring back, and this would be the perfect category for her!
@@hannahstevens6665 same here! These to me are not giving what monster high can give. I will be buying Cleo since she is the only one that actually peeked my interest. Maybe spectra, but sorry Frankie not this time ghoul friend.
I've seen online the reason why we are not going to probably get an Operetta because of copyright reasons.
She’s cute, …but not $75 cute…
Yeah like I'd be happy to own her but never for that price
I wish they’d experiment more with lagoona and ghoulia! Like mermaid zombies are cool!
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
Ghouls rule retailed for $30. With inflation adjustment it’s about $40. So the most this doll who doesn’t have any accessories but rooted lashes instead it should cost $50 at most.
Ghouls Rule is amazing, got me hooked. 👍 AND Haunt the Casbah! 🥰 OMG
I’d love to see an outfit swap between Midnight Runway Frankie and the first Haunt Couture Frankie
Came here to say exactly that.
At this point Im not amazed, Mattel is just giving us $25-30 worth dolls and not even trying to give us quality, beautiful designer dolls. This collection looks more like a playline set you'd find at Walmart. Don't get me wrong, they are pretty but is disappointing
I wsnt them to bring back dolls priced normally like reel drama
@@insertcreativeusernamehere9900 yeah and available to everyone
Bye.. 75$ for THAT? It’s literally a full on 25$ doll not 75$s worth.. take Lillie Chang she literally was 80 dollars and came with 2 outfits,brush, stand, 2 pairs of shoes, nice NYLON HAIRR eyelashes, accessories?? 5 dollars more and you get so much. If Mattel would have added 5 more bucks to that Frankie, it would have went into the box..
Exactly and the bratz collector dolls also come with a second outfit and they're only 50
From this line id only go for Cleo. And this is from someone who literally only collects Frankie dolls
Wish she had a diary or AT LEAST a note from Frankie from og HC...it was sooo sweet n got me all up in the feels! I hope to get her on drop day. Ty for the review, Jay!
I really hope mattel changes the price of this line but they did not and it's humiliating that this doll only comes with a stand and certificate. Not worth $75 😐
Compared to the old one, I’d pay 20 for her, not 75 at all. The older one is worth that imo but this is just so bland and kinda ugly
Not even the original wave one dolls were as cheap as $20, don’t be delusional lol 😂
@@LuciesCafe so you’d pay 75 for a less detailed box, and less stuff? Pop off then I guess
@@Simply_mystical never said that either, don’t put words in my mouth 🤨🤨 The dolls way overpriced and I’d never spend $75, but you are completely undervaluing the doll by saying you’d only pay 20. Most articulated dolls on the market aren’t that cheap, even small company ones. Be realistic
@@LuciesCafe k
Man, they are so cute but I am not paying over $100 CAD for them. The price point is WILD.
So she cost even more than a normal collector release AND we’re not sure to get her on Mattel creation cause of the bots BUT a lot of content creators are going to get them for free as always like al other few ones and won’t be bothered about the stress of may be not getting her on the site ?? Gosh another reason to hate Mattel! Thanks so much for all your videos, your review made me think more about buying her… she doesn’t worth the stress and the money.
$25 doll being sold for $75... mattel rly has everyone in a nostalgia grip
Absolutely not worth what they're charging for it. Glorified playline doll with a G1premium with the added bonus of dealing with scalpers
She looks similar to the ghouls rule frankie.
@@chyname cept Ghouls Rule Frankie comes with more…. A cauldron mask collectors card plus she has more pieces to her outfit alone
@@ASurfgirl ghouls rules Frankie’s box low key has more detail💀I feel like they just slap “collector” on something just to put up the price or am I crazy
only Mattel can water down it's "collector" products so badly it looks like play line. It's smart when you think about it, cheap out on your standard products so much that your "premium" products only have to have basic quality to look better by comparison. MGA would never
Wow this is so well put. You've figured out this game Mattel is playing so accurately! and absolutely MGA would NEVER.
They do the same with Barbie too
Yeah, gotta agree, I see why Randy Rainbow is obsessed with Rainbow High Dolls. They go ALL OUT on outfits AND accessories. I absolutely love G1 Monster High AND a lot of the Mattel Creations and SDCC Monster High girls, but Mattel's fallen behind MGA in the extras & embellishing department. 👍
I'm sorry but when are we as a collective going to boycott Mattel? As a 30 year old who has grown up with the original American girl dolls and monster high dolls, it literally pains my heart what Mattel is doing. The quality has absolutely gone to shit, with monster high, American girl, barbie (even though I was never a barbie collector, the quality decrease is so blatantly obvious.) Yet Mattel will use nostalgia to get people to buy these dolls meanwhile they give us shitty quality, and a higher and higher price point year after year. Yet people want to shit talk MGA about their prices, however look at the quality MGA is giving us while proving they actually LISTEN and CARE about their customers. For example the collector Lily Cheung doll was $80 but the quality was IMPECCABLE, with a second outfit, accessories, and just overall a doll and gorgeous pieces that in my opinion are worth the price. MGA'S playline dolls are worth more in my opinion then the bullshit quality Mattel has been putting out for their "collector" dolls. It's sad because they know that people love monster high and American girl so much they will still purchase them because they're hanging on to what these dolls USED to be. Mattel is greedy, money hungry, and doesn't give a shit about their consumers. Take for example Mattel creations and how it's been YEARS since their loyal customers have been pointing out the flaws with the website with bots and resellers. But have they done anything? Nah because Mattel doesn't care about us. They only care about money. And it's evident in this cheap excuse of a "collector" doll, which will still sell out in .2 seconds, and people will say Mattel "slayed" this release. Please. I wish people would open their eyes and show Mattel that we are worth more than the crap they think it's acceptable to give us for ridiculous prices. People should look at the quality Mattel is putting out vs what MGA is putting out. It's not even a competition, yet people will still complain about spending $30 on an amazing quality rainbow high doll but won't blink an eye spending $75 for this cheap ass quality with no effort put into design and execution, just because it's monster high. I'm over it. I LOVE monster high, but at this point I'm not giving a cent of my money to Mattel and their greed. Thank you for attending my Ted talk.
Edited to add: Can you imagine the amazingness we would get if MGA owned Monster High? Amazing Rainbow high and LOL OMG quality and attention to detail for our fabulous ghouls? I can only dream... For now I'm done with the disrespect and disappointment from Mattel.
Sorry this was so long.
Also those Rainbow High dolls you can get for really cheap if you don't mind waiting. Actually all of MGA dolls are like this I just got Tween Max for $11 and he came out around four months ago.
Hello text 👆👆 she’s has some dolls for up for sale and they aren’t expensive!
The dolls are kinda cute but I wish they were like. $45. Then they would be somewhat worth the price + exclusivity. (Even if I think this feels more like a $30 doll...)
The face is gorgerous but I think she'd do better as normal retail 30 bucks doll
I personally feel like this line should have been Operetta, Skelita, and Ghoulia for the whole mask motif going on it would’ve made more sense imo
I think they have been PHONING it in, Creativity-wise and accessory-wise with these Haunt Couture ones---where are the extras that make it worth that extra $25?? [Great video, otherwise!!]
I'm so fucjing mad at Mattel. How they suddenly produce "collector" dolls like crazy now because people buy them no matter what
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
For a $75 doll I better get an amazing outfit,NOT A TWO PIECE set !!! I better be getting many accessories,beautiful heels,a stand that isn’t wobbly and cheap,STUNNING HEELS 👠,hair with minimal product, a Diary,a comb,a purse or bag of some sort , and sooo much ! Mattel is charging $75 for a Frankie doll with a 2 piece outfit on ! Chile - PUH-LEEZ 💅🏾🙄! Mattel acts like Frankie,Draculara, Clawdeen,Cleo,and occasionally Lagoona are the only Monster High Dolls …… Mattel is starting to get ridiculous! 🤦🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️💅🏾! I SAID WHAT I SAID!! 👏🏾💅🏾!!!!
The hair accessory for Frankie is a hex nut :)!
sorry but this doll it doesn't worth $75 dollars... is super simple, the outfit is not cohesive the jacket is the only good thing with the hair and face, Mattel is scaming us at this point :/
happy Mattel gift it to you though lol
The fabric hanging down from the bracelets gives me Salad Fingers vibe
Disney Store: * creates the Midnight Masquerade doll lines *
Mattel: Hey can I copy your homework?
Disney Store: Sure just change it up a little bit here and there
Mattel: * makes this *
I don’t like the mask or shoes. Interesting the straps are on the bracelets. I like the green in Frankie’s hair. Would love to see without the jacket to see the bodysuit more I do like the legs of the bodysuit. Def agree $75 seems high compared to the 1st haunt couture which had more stuff. 💚💙🖤
I would've LOVED to see Spectra, Operetta & Ghoulia instead of Frankie & Cleo. I think it would've been so much better, but that doesn't take away from the fact that Frankie & Cleo look so gooddd
Great video! I’m really on the fence about this doll. $75 does seem a little steep for a doll with 2 pieces for an outfit…
I love that even though Mattel is sending you these dolls and DEFINITELY watching your videos, you are still so honest with your true opinions on the dolls 🫶🏻
Its so insane to me that they actually released this line, i thought it was fake
This Frankie (my fav monster) is not worth $75…thank you for your honest review.
Hello text 👆👆 she’s has some dolls for up for sale and they aren’t expensive!
Oof, saddle stand. I’m terrified to even look wrong at my Barbies with saddle stands, it took me foreeeeever to get them to balance.
I wish operetta was in the collection because…masks are her thing
Spoiler: No xD
lol sorry the dolls themselves are one thing but that packaging design is unacceptable for the price point. honestly even if you like these dolls and are willing to pay the amount just dont. this is exploitive.
Ngl I'd love to see Toralei, Spectra or the Cat Twins get Haunt Couture dolls.
I was hoping Mattel sent you Cleo too. I love your reviews!! 🥰🥰
I wish mattel would just focus on making good dolls for g3 instead of ripping people off with the corpse of g1 lol
Yeah, it feels like they can't make up their minds.
Or they could at least re stock the creepoductions and reel drama dolls and start selling monster high dolls outside of America....
with a $75 price point why dont they just give her real chains UGHHHHH.....😭
My favorite character is Cleo. I love your good vibes and I am new to your videos 😌😌
I rlly want to see more Freaky Fusion dolls like they only got 1 doll and then they were background characters for the rest of time. Also i really want to see a collector Toralei dolls
People are only now realizing how cheap these 75 dolls are.. even the first wave of couture was cheap just like this.
Spectra was the only one i liked from this line, i think if they came with a bag and the old cromed stands they would be so much better; Frankie looks very cheap
she's cute but not $75 cute 😭😭
If you look at a g3 screening you’ll see the eyes are the same on them and on this doll
Oh this is gonna be good. Always love a MH review from you! ❤
Edit: see, I feel like if I do get them, I’ll take the cover off to put their mask up so I can see their face. Probably won’t. Maybe Cleo, since I’m her biggest self-proclaimed stan 😂
She’s giving Dark One Emma vibes. I love the coat
I love my frankie dolls too! They're my ghoul too. 75$ is a lot but honestly it's better than 150 or 200$ lol
The only Haunt Couture I bought is Lagoona Blue, she just arrived. Gorgeous!
I've got all three Midnight Runway girls, they take my breath away, and I've pre-ordered Jenifire Long Midnight Runway Fang vote, even though the fans mixed and matched on her accessories I still love me dragon girl. 🥰 The masquerade theme got me, I'm a Mardi Gras, Circus, Jester, Harlequin, Pierrot fan. (So Freak du Chic got me OBSESSED with Monster High) 🖐️❤️🌹
Thank you for being honest!
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
I love her face but I do think they should have lowered the price point since she comes with less than the first haunt couture. Again, though, I really think her face is stunning!
this is a 20$ doll lol
I agree 50 would have been my maybe price
I actually had to order this doll. Right now I only have 2 haunt couture dolls the first wave draculaura and cleo . I eventually want to get all 6 of the main ghouls as "designers" dolls but have them be waring there original outfits from the default design
I love the New Grindr ghouls 🔥
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
I hope I get Frankie, my priority is mainly Cleo
I think ım the second stan of Frankie becauseı have an monster high collection and a special Frankie Stein collection and in the frankie collection there is almost every Frankie doll ı think! And she is my fav!
I bought the Love Edition from Amazon.. Should be here by Valentines Day .if shipping isn't delayed. Estimated date was later this month.. I want the Edition dolls as they come out. The Haunt Culture dolls not so much.. They are cool though. . if I didn't like the other dolls and play sets, I would have spent the money on these..they are for collectors . ours are for family.. I like the doll...
is frankis green ribbon bracelets and earrings glow in the dark?
i like this doll and hopefully will get her
I don’t think Mattel would ever go as far as giving poly to a collector doll (thankfully!!!)
Oh, they actually did. The SDCC exclusive She-Ra, and shadow weaver 2-pack from 2019 gave BOTH dolls polypropylene hair.
@@SailorQuaoar WHAT?! Oh wow….. well maybe at least not monster high and Barbie 🫠
I would try for spectra but theyre just too expensive
She's pretty but I can't choose between her or Cleo. I think I'll just see if I can beat the bots, if not, I'll try for Cleo.
I’m super excited for Cleo and spectra, Cleo in specific, but since these dolls are $75 each, I think I’m gonna skip on Frankie
I might get them. Something is odd for this Frankie, so low-key I want it for that reason. Well see.... ⚡. Review 👌🏾💋
Wow I am so disappointed. Thank you for sharing. There is no way that I would get this collection
Tbh if they put Jenafire long in the collection it would be freaky fabulous
I MIGHT go for the spectra HC doll
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
I liked Frankie but Spectra….. Idk if people didn’t like her, but I LOVED HER she’s cute super pretty idc what people say spectra looks gorgeous
cant wait for spectra lol
He was doing this🤌🏻🤌🏻 the whole intro😂
I didn’t know they we’re already out to buy 😮
Is creepover Twyla still being sold/produced?
Yup!
So I actually really love her outfit, love the green and I like her makeup way better then the first. I also really love that the black streaks are mini in the back and thicker on the front. Hate a mask, it’s boring and hides her face too much! I also agree that the price is to high. But I don’t plan to her though. Now must find voltagous Frankie!!! I never realized how beautiful she is ❤
Hello text 👆👆 she’s has some dolls for up for sale and they aren’t expensive!
for some reason this frankie looks more like the g1 doll than the haunt couture wave 1
Girl how did you got it please I'm a fan to please tell me
There is so much I want to say about this doll, and none of it is nice. Honestly, there's one way to sum up my feelings on it and it's with a quote.
"You're tacky and I hate you."
while they’re fine as a doll, no way are they worth 75$. they just look so low effort compared to the original haunt couture dolls, which all feel so high quality and fancy, they rlly feel like collectors. the skullectors have also gone downhill with their quality so hard, it feels like mattel testing how cheap they can get with these skullector dolls.
Did you manage to get the Elvira doll?
What I don’t understand why did they make frankie.. like we literally got a superhero version of them last year as a skullector so why do we have another one
These new collector dolls are NOT worth the prices at all. Dolls use to be much much cheaper back in the days, now since it’s coming back, Mattel is money hungry now, feeding off of people who would drop $80 for a doll
The dolls are nice don’t get me wrong, but NOT worth the almost $80 price point..
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
Hi I
love your videos
ugh why do they have to make such a good face and hair and have boring outfits. its not fair😩If it was cheaper id buy it
If there's a wave two I really expect it to be either Abbey, Ghoulia, and Operetta or Venus, Robecca, and Cupid
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
bc of the color of the streaks i wondered if i might glow in the dark like twyla. i feel like this outfit is nice but its kinda.. lackluster for a collector doll.
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
Wow I never would’ve thought that actual G3 play line dolls look better and with more quality than this Frankie
I’m sorry. The only one I like and that I will try to get is spectra.
Her face is beautiful. Reminds me of Michelle Pfeiffer’s Catwoman.
TERRRRRRRIBLEEEEE!!!!!! theyre actually on par with that generation 2 emoji shite, shame on you mattel and the influencers who wont speak about this in fear of losing PR...
Yeah they Fr need to step it up for $75
I personally don't understand this line, heard about them a few days ago but that's it... I don't hate them but I'm just not that thrilled about them, not worth it
I’ll probably only get Cleo
I really like the green💚 they incorporated and her makeup but I definitely don't think it's worth $75. The quality just isn't there this time.
The first three HC MH that I got all had face flaws. So, if the outfit and accessories get simplified like this, I’m not risking over $100 Canadian to get one that might be wonky. I might try for Cleo, once I see her face, but definitely not Frankie.
Hello text 👆👆 she’s displaying some dolls for sale
😤😤🤷♀️pass b/c probably will be impossible to get and it ain't worth the money or aggravation...
Idk! I guess i am just disappointed in all 3 dolls really! When I saw the first pics of the faces and read Masquerade Runway I guess I was expecting more glamour like and when seeing the complete doll I get Super Hero vibes and just not really feeling it... I'm a huge Frankie fan and I don't care for the mask or outfit! Just so dissapointed because I was hoping the this Friday's drop would be something awesome... SO TRULY BUMMED!!!
