    Out of all the changes, making Torelei an “elite” is the most offending; she had a great backstory as a juvie alleycat given a second chance at Monster High. At the very most, make her the principal’s adopted daughter, rather than retcon her story entirely just to make a second mean rich girl. Cleo already got that covered, friend or not.

    i dont hate them but they're def missing the "edge" that endeared children to them so much in the first place. back in the 2010's if they wanted girly or even just non goth or emo dolls, they'd just buy bratz or barbie... now monster high also has to compete with rainbow high, shadow high, & omg & more? which also have slightly edgy dolls that look similar to this reiteration of mh? yeah i dunno, i think the og designs were pretty much perfect so i dont understand this choice, 2000-early 2010's fashion is in now, the og dolls still would've been popular with children today.
    the best way to update them would've been to add more lgbt characters, get cultural characters right & redesign those, more body types etc etc. that'd stay really true to what mh is all about & appeal to a wider audience... instead they just uh, made them look like dolls for toddlers i guess? even if they do continue mh w the og cast designs, i just think it sucks & is very telling of what nick thinks kids like when this is their vision of what mh is
    edit: ok honestly i've warmed up to them a bit more now. im still not 100% on the fashion but im not gonna pretend gen 1 mh was 100% gothic and stuff, i just think i prefer it a little more & think the fashion should be edgier & darker, maybe today's tweens will like gen 3 fashion more though like what do i know

  • @GhostlyPhantazy

    Honestly, the designs have me going... "Are these even the same characters?"
    Ik, it's a new gen and all but when characters stray away from the source material a bit too much it does make em unrecongnizable. The Ghoul Squad series, I'll give credit where it is due, kept the ghouls' designs and personalities relatively the same while in an all new universe, the new gen backstories does have me confused like...why does Draculaura wanna be a witch? Why is Toralei reduced to being a second carbon copy 'mean girl' archtype, when Cleo sorta already has tha role covered? (Ik later on Cleo has character development and becomes more nicer as the series goes on) And Lagoona...unrecognizeable...She looks like a new character altogether. Maybe if they kept the blue skin anf blonde hair, but added coloured streaks and kept her sporty aesthetic, then maybe...
    I doubt it will be another Sonic Movie redesign uproar, but to be blunt, the designers and story writers failed the assignment by 50%.

      The only think I like about her new design is that her nose looks like a snout.
      Everything else is horrendous and can someone please tell me why she has sketchers? The nerd look that the writers are trying to go for her is not working because Clawdeen was a girlboss in g1. Her g2 personality is actually more accurate to the original, but this? This is insulting to the Monster High fans and Clawdeen herself, and if she was real, she would force Mattel to redesign the characters. (Torelei looks terrible, the British accent doesn’t suit her, and Deuce apparently is green? Even his g2 design looked better than this. And HEATH?! OMG HE HAS THE WORST DESIGN IN THE ENTIRE GENERATION!)

      Frankie, Draculaura, Clawdeen, and Ghoulia having to fit in despite having human origins. They find out that someone was plotting to expose Monster High to humans and they have to find out who it is and stop them, while having other ghouls like Abby, Cleo and Lagoona help them along the way
      Pretty simple plot to be honest with you.

    It seemed that they’re changing Lagoona blue’s background like she’s Australian in the og but now it seemed that she will be Hispanic? It’s just kinda weird because other than the name the new Lagoona is just not lagoona for a lot of ways, and some were even hoping for an aboriginal person to be casted but oh well, they could’ve named the new lagoona Fishella or sth like that and no one would noticed that it’s supposed to be lagoona.

Feels really shoe-horned and lazy to just go "welp, now Lagoona is Latina! Our work here is done!" ... idk it's annoying...

They completely altered clawdeen even in her haunt couture journal and just made her a straight up stereotype of black women. They ruined her and Cleo’s love hate playful relationship and just made clawdeen a flat out female dog. Mattel really is letting me down.

Draculaura's new design is alright. Pretty cute but I wish a small splash of white SOMEWHERE in the outfit. I really like Lagoona's design, but she literally looks like a completely different character, tbh should've just given her a new name.

    yeah, sorry to say it but i'm firmly in the "hater" camp with this. Monster High was one of the most influential series of my childhood and to see it turned into... whatever this is, is pretty heartbreaking. some things just need to be left alone, it doesn't matter how much passion and love the new cast/voice actors/artists/etc. have for a franchise just. don't. touch. it. make a new series and put all of the attention and effort into that instead of disappointing og fans. hell, say it's inspired by MH or a continuation of the story/world but with new characters, don't erase everything people loved about the already established worldbuilding because you wanted to slap the well-known name on an entirely different body and personality (coughLagoonacough). idk what the og writers' POV on this is, or if it's the same people doing the reboot, but... if it's a new writing team then doesn't this feel like a slap in the face after all of the hard work they put in for YEARS? if it IS the same team, then guys... have some self-respect, this is just sad. this screams Money-Hungry Mattel taking advantage of people's still existing adoration for first era Monster High to push out another beaten-dead-horse reboot that's even worse than the previous one. i don't agree AT ALL with people going after the VAs over this btw, that's shitty no matter the situation, this is 100% a case of corporate greed and shouldn't be pinned on them. however, seeing a small group of fans lash out at the wrong person doesn't change my opinion overall, it's nice that the cast is happy and passionate, but that's not enough to keep a beloved series going longer than it was made to. just let MH go into the light as a good memory for everyone and leave the ghouls ALONE. sorry for the rant but not sorry for everything else.

    I'm honestly pretty disappointed in these designs. JUST the designs mind you, I think the dolls themselves, their quality and molds look pretty damn good. I'm proud of the company for going out of their way to make distinct face shapes for each ghoul, and Deuce's doll actually looks pretty damn good. But like I said, the designs? They're NOT it. I was open minded about Clawdeen and her new glasses, but now she just gives off Disney Channel nerd main character vibes. I like the design and outfit, but not for Clawdeen. I think it'd be a bit better for a reboot Howleen instead. I don't mind Frankie's new design too much so far. I think the hair clip is a bit much, and like everyone else I want them to have their green skin, but the outfit itself is fine if not a little too sporty/popular person-y for me. And Drac... I know people have been saying she looks the best but I honestly couldn't agree less. Quality wise she's great, i like her face shape and mold... But her outfit is a tragedy. It looks nice but my grievances are in the fact that it has NO lolita/victorian inspiration. It's so weirdly modern for her and while I'm all for change I think they need to CHANGE her design to have more of an old timey feel to it. I have other opinions on the other character's designs, but I'll leave it here for now.

I want to see what they intend for the more adult targeted show they were planning. I do think they are cute and I would never want to bash any of the designers or people who worked on them, nor the actors for the shows, but I can't say that I'm enjoying the direction they seem to be taking this reboot just by the initial look.

    The sad thing is that ANY criticism is often interpreted and / or dismissed as "intolerance" or "hate". Most criticism is just that. While some of the less-than-fawning commentary may fit the bill of "intolerance", most of it is simply expressing honest objections. Shouting these opinions down with accusations of hatred will help no one. Let's face it. The old MH set a VEY high bar, and clearing that height will be next to impossible. Folks who dearly love the classic MH, like me, will be scrupulously critical, like it or not.

    5:45 Is exactly my feelings summed up in a single rant. Mattel’s doll lines ARE childish looking which is a surprising design choice considering that Monster High fans are likely adults now. To add insult to injury, they completely washed out the original charm of the characters.
    I also find the justification for Mermaid High’s failure to be absolutely redundant because even with all that reworking and design conflict, they still only managed to come up with a doll that looks like it belongs in a dollar store. There is nothing unique looking about their design and the release of Mermaze was the nail in the coffin. MGA has been killing it with their detailed textiles and over the top character design that appeals to both kids and adults and I am all for it. Mermaid High has no excuse.

    This whole monster high thing is kinda crazy, I mean like I understand why MATTEL is doing this, because they’re trying to be less Adult Collector vibes and more; Child like. But i don’t know if they realize their fans are 50/50 between adults and kids. Meanwhile MGA is creating stuff really fast and MH haven’t for a little while. It’s all really confusing. But I feel like Adult fans need to calm down and let it be more kid like! But on the other hand, these dolls use to be so cheap and had good Quality but now it feels like there is less quality and a higher price!

Why did they change that in the first place? Not only that but would there be another demi god in school whos probably the child of Hercules?
