    Also- catty always had blue as an accent color since g1, thats why she has blue on her new g3 doll
    And elvira’s actress is shappic, shes married to a woman, thats why she was picked

      Oh really? I always think of pink and silver when it comes to Catty. But I didn't collect G1, so I only have a very basic knowledge of them. And I never knew that about Elvira, apparently I was the only one who didn't know 😂

    Now that the beetlejuice dolls have leaked, to me they are just kinda supposed to be rereleases in a way. Like they have purchase potential since they are “new dolls” but they can also be for those who missed the first release. A compromise

    Elvira’s Vegas outfit is from the end of her movie and the reason it is potentially a pride release is cause the actress who plays her Cassandra Peterson is bisexual which is why on the original dolls make up it has bisexual flag colors

    Seems like MGA is dying. Every single one of their brands is feeling completely lackluster. Like even Bratz. MGA takes way too long to come out with new designs for dolls. Also for how long it’s taking for the new designs, I would expect something more exciting than what’s coming out. Not that the new Bratz aren’t cute, but they could’ve done so much better.

    • @KATC
      @KATC  12 днів тому +6

      I understand what you mean about the Skullectors, that's a good point. That's my philosophy on collecting in general, that if I don't love a doll then I'm not going to buy it just to say I have the full set or whatever. It's why I haven't bought any of the Skullectors at all. But there are people who like to collect that way, and that's their preference. I think instead we should say to Mattel, 'hey, there are people that will buy these dolls if you make enough. Don't make them so limited!'

    finally cute outfits for the besties!!! and they redeemed Teresa thank goodness, I hated that first outfit they gave her. my favorites are Renee and Brooklyn. also I don't care that baby spinoffs make no sense as long as I find them cute enough to buy which with bratz I do. they're the only ones I like. I don't mind Jade being blonde, I think she looks pretty. I do agree that the outfit is not exactly her style. I like the skulltimate dolls but I'm too scared to spend money on them because they're pretty expensive here and getting a wonky one would be devastating to me. I think that the blue on Catty is a reference to her Boo York doll from g1. the birthday dolls are all beautiful to me, my favorite is Frankie and Cupid is a cutie.

    • @KATC
      @KATC  10 днів тому

      I do really like this Renee, better than the first one! The Babyz...eh, I just can't get behind them 😅 but if you like them that's totally cool! I don't dislike the design of the anniversary Jade, but I think they should have used a character that is naturally blonde if that's what they wanted to go for.
      Are you in Canada? I know doll prices are through the roof there. The good thing about this type of locker is that you can kind of see the faces through the filigree. So if you shine a phone light on the middle part, you can make out most of the face.
      I just looked up Boo York Catty, I think you're probably right. But the blue on that one was a lot subtler. This is very in your face 😂
      I think the birthday dolls might be the best line they've done yet!

  • @novembercrust
    @novembercrust 3 дні тому +1

    I am going to take a swing that Iris is to add diversity to the 'core' line up (which, from MGA's own worlds, were the original six + Amaya [And I guess Bella to some degree, cant get rid of the pink girl] And noticeably, the darkest skin tone there is Sunny.). I won't ever complain about adding more skintone diversity in a core line, as sad as it is to see less Ruby and Jade. The Poppy thing however is part of this weird legacy of red-head erasure wherein the redhead character is replaced by a second blonde part way through a doll line's existence (in this case, Amaya and Bella, with Sunny being the first 'blonde' I guess) - see also Diva Stars and MyScene.
    Fun fact though, they made Slime World (or whatever its called) artwork with Poppy's character art even though she has not had a single release in the rebrand. I work for an apparel company that licenses MGA and saw this.

    • @KATC
      @KATC  2 дні тому +1

      That is a very good point, I didn't even think about that. I agree, any extra diversity is good, but why sacrifice other characters???
      I never knew that about redhead erasure, that is so strange! I love redheaded dolls, I tend to gravitate towards them over blondes.
      Thanks for sharing your insider knowledge! Kids are going to wind up confused if they don't watch the show and they see Poppy merch 😂

    • @novembercrust
      @novembercrust День тому +1

      ​@@KATC Well I think the answer about sacrificing other characters is mostly money. Besides the first slime line, they've only done groups of 4 characters when they used to always do 6 in a core line, I think. So that's probably a lot of cut costing there. I do not like the rebrand so don't take this as me defending it too much, but I do think also they probably have some data that kids, little kids, do like the rainbow, sparkly things over, say, orange, overall. I would be curious to see if they have hard data on the selling of characters from the original RH run. I was also just thinking about this, but they probably started targeting younger kids (besides to appeal to their moms) because the original child who liked them in 2020 may already have grown into their tween years and stopped liking dolls (5 years is a LOT at that age), so they wanted to capture a younger demographic who they could sell to for a few more years before they also become tweens.
      That all being said, the Poppy art is so cute. I actually like her style over her series one doll in it, she's wearing a orange boho-ish dress with pink butterflies and has small braids in her hair and an updated version of her butterfly heels. You can see her if you search 'Rainbow High Colorful Friends Retro Group t-shirt' on amazon in a group shot tee. Honestly I am surprised they even approved the art with her in it!

    This is going to sounds bad but if they are making a new Elva doll she needs to have a new body mold as in she needs to have big boobs. If I say think of dolly parton you know what your first thing your going to think of, it's the same with Elva.

      I had Bratz as a kid, I do know the Babyz were around before, but I wasn't into them then either 😅 like I said, if you like them, if anyone likes them, that's fine. I've just never understood the need for them. But it is a trend for MGA, because they do it with all their lines. For the ones that start out as baby dolls, like LOL surprise, that was great when they made OMG, but when it goes the other way, I'm not into it. But maybe I'm in the minority thinking that. Anyway, I don't think it makes anyone a true or not true fan to not like the Babyz, it's a personal preference.

      @@KATCok sorry 🩷, also people are theorizing fashion fantasy are fashion pixies but the prototype versions, the ones that are movie accurate, then the ones we actually got, what you showed on the video, if you know what happened, you should look that up, so if it’s true, I’ll die

      @TheDollyBoy I looked them up, they would be excellent designs for the Fashion Fantasy dolls!

      It was a little, but I liked it! I thought it was a better reboot sequel than some of the other reboot sequels they've made.
