Finally someone said something about the tails.. tbh it’s nice that MGA made a mermaid doll line but forgot the most important part, articulation, the dolls look good but the tail needs some movements. Great review my friend! I love how honest you are 😊👍💖
The dedication with the costume, including contacts 😮, is great! 🥰 (I ain't got the time/patience/energy for that shit. 🤣) Thanks for this review. ☺️ The lack of tail articulation & permanent mermaid-ness irks me. 😩
I love this video and your honesty, but I couldn't stop staring at your GORGEOUS nails. And your makeup too. You have awesome style and I'm here for it. You just got a new sub!
Love your actual critique of the dolls. MGA definitely missed some obvious opportunities for the mermaids and aquatic theme. They're beautiful of course and definitely won me over to collect some mermaid dolls. As a play line I can forsee kids getting frustrated with the immobility of the tails. And you're too cute. Awesome work.💦
What a great review! I really love your ideas for the jewelry. Your ideas make so much more sense compared to what was done. I love the fishbone theme for the earrings. Also one of the dolls having a purse that looks like a cloud is so ridiculous 😭😭 definitely needed more aquatic themes for accessories like you said. I’m glad you were able to get these dolls as a part of PR tho! You totally deserve it 🌊
I wish the tails were articulated as well, and the fact they don’t come with stands, still will be getting them bc I think they’re gorgeous! Also agreed on the face mold part, thats the reason I sold my series 1 and 2 Rainbow high dolls, I just recently started buying them again now that they have neck articulation and different face molds
really agree with your point about the dolls not being aquatic enough ; i would love for them to rework these designs or at least have another wave of them with elevated designs & also that car is about to be a mess with that waist joint ooh my
I'll pretend I have my very own African deity Mami wata doll. They are so bling bling just like I imagined my African water spirit to be 💗💗💗💗. I love the black mermaids from Mattel but these are upscale .
you look so gorgeous!!!! i love ur make up and everything :3 i subscribed! i can't wait for these to come out, i DEFINITELY understand the tail joint being an issue for people but i don't really mind them sacrificing movement for the look of the tail, i'm not sure how it would look if there was carved out joints :/ i do agree alot with the face! i hope they expand on that.. the jackets are very.. interesting
I can forgive a lack of knee articulation purely because so e of my MH Great Scarrier reef dolls have started to have trouble standing up over time as their joints have loosened, but they definitely should be able to sit up better and I think that the tails should have been made to be interchangeable between the girls to change up their fashions more. I also agree with you completely that some of the fashion choice like the jackets are peculiar and that certain accesories and details feel rushed. I dig Riviera alot despite how her styling could have read more mermaid (also I think she should have had dark green hair! How many lavender haired mermaids do we need you know?) And Harmonique because they're sisters, but I'll probably pass on the rest of series one unless they go on sale. The color change on the ones like Shellnelle is probably the best color change effect I've seen on a toy, but a few of them definitely needed some different color choices. I'm curious to see how they improve in later series- as messy as the rollout and rescheduled pre-sale has been I still think these will do well enough to at least get a series 2.
I will buy just one of these bcause there is no bend at the knee, no stand n dont sit down well. And bsides that, i think they will come out w a second line that will b improved upon, and so i wld like to save my $ for that second line that is probably in the works.🧜♂️🧜♀️🧜♂️🧜♀️i just came across your chanel, very honest n informative, ill b here for it!!💦
MGA is really good at parody and getting real life inspiration so I'm really surprised out of all the dolls there was very little of that going on. There are so many high fashion and fast fashion elements that are mermaid themed that could have gone into the dolls accessories imo. Still want of of them tho because they're still amazing and fab! ✨❤️✨
instead of taking inspiration from the sea that is literally full of beautiful things to make their outfits, they instead made them wear boring human outfits
Thank u for ur review. For these dolls, I don’t really care about the color change thing, i would rather take the color change budget to make more articulation joints, at least for the knees. And these dolls need to change their eye bolls, like now the eyes have too much whites, look kinda creepy from some angles LOL
I love the dolls... But they are too human!.... No seashell earings... Or bags.... Or glasess!!!.... Splash queen from lol omg looks more like a mermaid, and she has legs!!!! Dont get me wrong... Im gonna buy the mermaze mermaidz.... But im not 100% happy with the result.....
I think that if MGA were not going to make removable tails at least they would have made their tails like the tails of the magical mermaids from fairytopia, which have a silicone covered tail, but the dolls had knee joints and could sit. 🤔
to me is just the way that M.Scoot Anderson see things, if is "runway inspired" then is good, and that's enough to sell Rainbow High dolls, but i don't think he knows how to work with a actual theme line doll, like you sayed its so obvious that the earrings should not all be hearts! the clothes are not aquatic, the face molds are WEAK! i think the wave 2 will not be much diferent, because again he does not care! and he is the head designer on this line....soo...yeah its gonna get bad really bad before gets great.
@@merman124 nah he is head designer on pretty much everything right now, except the LOL stuff...as we can see because LOL has hair textures,skin colors and real unique style, with is sad....to me i whould love a black latina mermaid, but depending on the team that works with him...anyway who knows knows lets just hope for the better!
@@pruosso aaaaah ok I'm glad to know that! Ive been speaking to one of the designers and thought she was in charge of it fully. Everything you mentioned will be upgraded in the following waves! Thankfully she liked my honest video! I CAN say the new wave of Mermaze bend at the knee, Merboyz could be a thing, a car, a deluxe doll, a doll with a gown & gel paint, & a customizable mermaze!!!
@@merman124 Merboyz?? really? Well i liked you video because you was like really honest and sayed the things most people wont say because they are afraid off MGA cutting $$$$ them $$$$ off $$$$ and also i agree! the asian doll should look asian, the mermaid doll should be able to do stuff like a fish would....anyways lots of love from Brasil
Thanks for your honest review. I totally agree with the design. It should had been more Aquatic design. I would still buy them but i hope MGA get better for the next set of Mer-Dolls.

Finally an honest review on the cons of the dolls.
Your aesthetic is so amazing 😍 the makeup, the hair, everything is stunning 💖
The dedication with the costume, including contacts 😮, is great! 🥰

Omg! I love this!! 💕💕
They look mermaizing
instead of taking inspiration from the sea that is literally full of beautiful things to make their outfits, they instead made them wear boring human outfits
I can not wait to get all of these dolls omfg

Hard tail that has no articulation. Nah.
Buy one so we can get tail articulation with the next wave
@@merman124 Nah. I can wait. This was a huge misstep.
