I’m glad the desk has storage!! The more storage, the better. I can see myself putting a lot of little accessories in there. I’m in love with this set, Cleo herself is a little basic but that’s what makes me like her. Overall I’d buy this set on sale or something but I always wait for sales haha
My Macy’s finally got three of this vanity so I’m doing my research probs GOING too get her haha I love the VANITY helps to world build. Love how you gave us a tour through Cleo’s accessories!!
i actually kinda like the skirt for how loud the pattern is 😆 granted it’s not super glam like monster ball, seems more like a casual comfy “hang out at home” outfit, which i guess fits the theme of having a self-(s)care day. i LOVE the doll’s makeup and i’m so glad the hair is saran! i feel very take it or leave it about the vanity itself, but i don’t have some of the other dolls the accessories are re-used from, so that part doesn’t turn me off. i may pick up the set when it’s on a good sale but as much as i like g3 cleo i’m looking to get the monster mysteries cleo set before this one, despite that doll having poly hair. 😩 thanks for showing off the set, these types of videos are super helpful for me in deciding which dolls/sets to add to my collection! i also enjoy how chill and positive you are are in these videos, even about the parts you don’t like. it’s nice to see honest takes on the drawbacks that aren’t just aggressively trashing the doll, you know?
The loud pattern is growing on me, it low key kind of reminds me of like lularoe tho haha. Thanks for the kind words as well, it’s a fine line to teeter between critical/positive so it’s nice to hear I’m able to articulate those thoughts well! 🩵
Beautiful Cleo! Love the hair, make-up, and gold sandals. Not a fan of her outfit but I'll put together clothing pieces from previous Cleo dolls. Excellent video as always :D
I’d love to replace her as my og Cleo bc wow that Saran and middle part. Maybe even do some bangs too. The vanity isn’t too bad either. I’d pay less on a sale if I’m lucky but I’d buy full too if I had to desire too rn lol.
Anything Cleo is a win but they need to give her more unique shoes and accessories maybe even a new extra outfit or dress to make this set feel different and more worth it. But I can see people buying her if she were on sale for like $25-19.99 and given how we are approaching that time of year soon she’ll be an easy buy
This was super helpful because I really was gonna spend too much on this set. I'll wait until it's on sale on because the vanity itself is the only thing of value to me
What were your thoughts on, deadfast Ghoulia collector doll for comic-con 2024 since were both fans of Ghoulia?. And i saw your blog video, just wanted to share this with you. If you ever do more re-roots, best of luck with that.
Hi Eli, I just want to say that I am a new subscriber and I love your videos! - particularly your Monster High customs and reviews. I'm gearing myself up to perhaps do my first reroot (at least I am watching as many videos as possible for research - eeeek!) I really love your painted accessory customs as well, and I just wondered if you ever use a primer or a fixing/sealant? I've heard Mr Super Clear is really good but would love to hear if you use anything?
Hi!! Thanks for watching, those are my fave vids to make so that makes me happy that you like them! As for painted accessories, I have never really primed any of them before staring to paint on them and I’ve had no problems so far. I think the reason people use MSC on doll faces is because they are using water color pencils to get really sharp lines, and/or using pastels to blend so the grip that the msc provides is essential. For something like accessories tho where you’re usually just working with acrylic paint you can get away without priming it beforehand. I have started to seal some accessories when they are fully painted with either a matte, satin, or gloss varnish and that is helpful. I also have a bunch of painted doll accessories that I’ve never sealed and they have still held up well too, I just don’t actively play with them so they aren’t scuffing or chipping ya know. Painting accessories is pretty forgiving and a super fun way to elevate your dolls, so good luck! 😁
The base doll is gorgeous! It's crazy how red fearidescent Cleo is 😭
I knowwww but it’s so cute I think! Makes Fearidescent feel special amongst all the other Cleos
I like her make-up and hair. The outfit doesn't bother me. Cool play set that is very Cleo. I will pick her up!
I’m glad the desk has storage!! The more storage, the better. I can see myself putting a lot of little accessories in there. I’m in love with this set, Cleo herself is a little basic but that’s what makes me like her. Overall I’d buy this set on sale or something but I always wait for sales haha
i didn't expect her makeup to be this good😄
Right!? I was surprised as well, the teal and orange pair so well together

It was fun watching your adventure getting this Cleo. This is such a pretty play set! Cleo’s face up is so pretty!
Beautiful Cleo! Love the hair, make-up, and gold sandals. Not a fan of her outfit but I'll put together clothing pieces from previous Cleo dolls. Excellent video as always :D

I’m def getting her because I want every G3 Cleo since I couldn’t get every G1 Cleo
all the reused accessories is crazy...
I know the accessories are repeats but I know you like to paint some details so at least you have some great pieces to DIY.
Anything Cleo is a win but they need to give her more unique shoes and accessories maybe even a new extra outfit or dress to make this set feel different and more worth it.

Sorry I had to point it out, your snoopy shirt reflecting in the mirror looks like he’s narrating the video behind the camera lol.
I think the jewelry colors are meant to emulate turquoise and red coral 🪸
I've been watching the vintage one on auction sites, and I like this one, but I'm leaning towards the vintage. ❤️
Your so underratedddd and you kinda inspired me i also wanna do doll unboxing and stuff :D
really men have the best doll reviews
This was super helpful because I really was gonna spend too much on this set. I'll wait until it's on sale on because the vanity itself is the only thing of value to me
I think if they'd added the gold sparkle tights from Monster Mysteries to this outfit, it would compliment the sparkle in the top. 🤔
I just picked her up today at Ross for $19.99. I'm not a MH collector per sae but have a few and wanted to add a Cleo.
I wasn’t sold but now I kind of want her…
I lowkey enjoy the set, the jewelry is perfect for custom painting
Wish she had more clothes thougha
I will probably pick her up if I see her. I love Cleo.

Oooh I’m excited for Deadfast Ghoulia!! I’m gonna try and pick her up at comic con, I think she’s a great release for SDCC so I’m happy!
