My little cousin SPECIFICALLY asked for a black doll for Christmas. There is a demand for them, and I think stores should buy them!
Hannah Banana yeah
I am your 180th like
Yes, there is definitely a demand. Not just from the Blac community, by the way. When I was a kid, I liked having diversity, so I made sure that I would not just get the blonde barbie with blue eyes, because it would have felt like a world full of clones. I'd like it if they release more Asian too, especially Indian dolls, because I never had an Indian doll and it makes me sad.
We Stan your little cousin 😌🤚
Even now they sell well. Like every time the store would have sweets it would disappear in matter of a few hours. Now it died down a bit but who knows how long it will take
Side eye to the retailers not buying the black dolls! The hell?! 😒
This makes me mad
In my opinion the black doll in this line is one of my favorites and I hate how retailers won't buy them
Pencil dysfunction i live in area where we have probably a fairly distributed amount of whites, blacks and hispanics. Angles has never been on stocks in the whole area or in towns where most of the population is black.
@lawrencia b but there are also black people that are not clearly black or otherwise look ethnically ambiguous. and they may want to play with them
I think that happened to my fred meyers, i only see ONE black doll. And there all skinny. That made feel kinda sad that they were all skinny and only one black doll. But im not skinny. So it makes me feel ashamed that im not skinny.
It is so annoying when people say that boys don't play with dolls! It is also so bad that target doesn't buy black dolls. That is probably why 24k DJ, angles, and royal bee are really hard to find.
Totally frustrating when people think toys should be boxed into a particular gender. It's definitely a reason those characters are particularly difficult - if it helps, I always leave links in my description to purchase the entire collection online!
Yeah, I buy them online too. I only need Miss independent and alt girl to complete my collection! Have an awesome day 😀
And Miss Independent
I recently noticed that my son was making his toy dinosaurs talk to each other and playing kitchen. Thought he might like a doll and he does. Can’t wait to backtalk people about it.
I love angles but it was hard to find it (I live in wales
our country(ies) are so “white washed”
i wanted to be caucasian sooo bad. i felt like it was everything. seeing all the caucasian kids playing in the water and their hair being perfectly straight when they came out. as soon as a doll commercial came out the white girls would hold the white dolls.
coming from an afro-latina (there’s not many of us)
my african american, puertorriqueña and mexicana side needs to be shown!
my mom would ALWAYS give me the white dolls. i only had 2 black barbies... SMFH
heavyn gabrielle+ I know how you feel. I’m black american, and even before kids are grown up, white washing and the white people are better narrative instills into their mind. I loved to buy Bratz all the time when I was a kid, and I still remember this moment. I remember calling Sasha ugly and not cute, and wanting the lighter dolls like Cleo and Jade. I never had a actual black Bratz as a kid. I feel so ashamed of myself for having that kind of mentality back then. I love my skin color, and shout for more representation now. I root for all colors, no matter how dark or light they are. Everyone’s beautiful
I wanted to be mex- because everyone would bully me for being ashy.
Biss you are the perfect mix 💕❤️
Show your colors boo👏👑
i’m glad times are changing now i’m latina and i got so tired of the same pasty blonde blue eyed dolls every year lmao
As a light skinned Afro-Latina myself (my dad is light skinned/white passing Latino and my mom is very clearly Afro-Latina) I struggled greatly with identity too. I went through a period where I wanted to be white SO badly and would lighten myself with hair straightening, lighter makeup, and desperately saving up for a nose job IN MIDDLE SCHOOL.
Then I wanted nothing more to be darker. I wanted my mom’s tight curls and dark eyes and beautiful skin. I thought that was what I needed to be.
Now I’m happy with me and I have a daughter of my own and I hope she grows up loving herself.
The Coronavirus had me having a great doll buying experience today! My target had all the new na na na surprise dolls, and the 11 inch dee dee candy themed hairdorables doll I have been looking for a while for! I also found the Barbie puma sets that have been so tough to find! And today is my birthday so I’m very happy..It’s sad stores think black dolls aren’t worth stocking...This really needs to stop going forward cuz I always hear little white girls asking for black dolls so there is a demand from everyone
Firstly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! It sounds like you had an exciting day filled with great experience! Congrats on all your doll finds! The new Na Na Na's have been so scarce here even with the virus, I'm honestly shocked at their success. In regards to black dolls being less accessible - I'd basically just be repeating myself lol so we all know my thoughts, but I really appreciate you sharing!!
Go to bed 😴😬😴😒😴😴💤😴😬💤
Thanks
Exactlyyy. This is the exact reason why I never asked for Barbies when I was little - they all looked the same and it was just freaky to me. I loved when my dolls all looked different, which was why I was so obsessed with Monster High. Honestly, as a kid, I wanted a doll that wasn't white so badly for such a long time, but where I am from, there weren't many POC options. The only dolls that were diverse like that were Monster High, and even that doesn't really count because they don't actually represent real people. Having different skin tones is so much more interesting, and as a person who loved (and still do love!) dolls as a child, people love diverse dolls. Mostly because children like role-playing and having different characters to give them stories, so all the dolls owned by kids usually are quite different from eachother. Just very sad to see. There is absolutely a demand for dolls of darker skin tones so the stores are really shooting themselves in the leg. Blonde white barbies just get boring after a while, which is why they were so unpopular and uninteresting in middle school for me, and I am a white girl coming from a big majority white country. :/
when I was a kid I use to got to the Barbie section of a store and wondered why there weren’t any dolls that look like me (Hispanic) all I really seen was blonde dolls with blue eyes.after a while I hated my curly hair and skin color and wanted straight blonde hair and lighter skin then when I grew up I finally realized to be myself
We love a Hispanic queen
Same I am Hispanic and I have always had trouble finding Hispanic dolls and when ever I got a Hispanic doll they where like GOLD to me
Same happened to dream house
Pencil dysfunction in latin america we don’t have that stereotype doesn’t even exist, so those girls tend to be the “pretty” ones 😔
Samee!
Can we just talk about how inclusive LOL dolls are?!?!? Like I’ve NEVER seen such a beautiful, trendy and diverse dolls line 😫😫✨
yes
I know how that feels. I’m black american, and even before kids are grown up, white washing and the white people are better narrative instills into their mind. I loved to buy Bratz all the time when I was a kid, and I still remember this moment. I remember calling Sasha ugly and not cute, and wanting the lighter dolls like Cleo and Jade. I never had a actual black Bratz as a kid. I feel so ashamed of myself for having that kind of mentality back then. I love my skin color, and shout for more representation now. I root for all colors, no matter how dark or light they are. Everyone’s beautiful
That does explain a lot about Sasha cause she I only had two of her and like five cloes & Yasmine's dolls
Montrell Th.+ As a black girl, I feel ashamed for not owning a single Sasha doll. I remember calling Sasha ugly and not pretty when I was a kid. I think about that moment, and I just hate myself for that
Snow999 right I feel bad too cause looking bad I would always consider Yasmine prettier and then when they did have Sasha in stores they where not tht new ones or they would be from a Wack line
@@Snow-xd4rv why are you ashamed that you don't have a sasha doll just because you have the same skin tone ?
@@TheBobo4890 why u feel bad for liking a doll more than another doll everyone has different opinions
@@AmericanGirlsInEngland I'm white and I prefer black dolls and so why should you care about someone else's opinions there someone else's opinions not urs
I've always kind of wish that the OMG dolls had a regular box. I haven't bought any because I can't display them how I would like to display them cuz I don't like opening my dolls :/
I hear that!!! I wish that they had a flap window box like the LIV in Wonderland dolls where you could still lift the cardboard flap and see the doll inside
@@Clawdeena9 if I can get one for a good deal I might just try to make the box into that style of box. I love the Crystal star display, it's giving me holiday Bratz big box vibes. If they could do that on a smaller size inbox collectors would not hesitate lol.
Really good 👌 the kids so I
Well is a surprise brand so the big secret box is a given
@nikas yep it is lol, guess I got what I wanted 🥺
I 90% agree on this. I am VERY thankful that you said that kids don't automatically think they need to change looking at a doll, but I think the reason kids think they might need to change subconsciously is very remote, if that's the right word? I mean it depends where you sit basically. If you are put in the situation of people never talking about how they look or if they feel like they need to change, kids never get that image. If kids are put in the situation that has people who talk about how they look and what they want to change with their body, then yes, I think kids would think on it more.
I do understand that it's almost impossible to have kids not think about their bodies, but the chances are never zero. Stores should buy all skin toned dolls. That is true.
Please don't come for me, really just tryna get this out there in to the world lmao
Is a mix. If the media and their families make an emphasis about it, dolls just fill up the sed hatred
I love how beautiful and inclusive these dolls are. Even as a 13 year old I want to just have them and their bright colors because they are so beautiful!!! I dont care if they are called "inappropriate" I still love them.
Me too!
I feel like I can’t get dolls because of coronavirus
Tbh same
Same
" i prefer her instead of neon " * the doll in the back * "what did you say about me??"
That explains why I found the rest and had to order angles
Congrats on getting her tho!! She's STUNNING!! I believe the only store she's available at in the U.S. is Wal-Mart, but I could be mistaken. As far as I know Target is not carrying 24K DJ, Miss independent, or Angles - whereas Wal-Mart is carrying all 3, and all 3 have been found in stores ( with 24K DJ being much harder to find )
clawdeena9+ It’s crazy how Target is doing that, even though they support a black company. They had the black history month ad with a black owned company called Honey Pot. I guess that was all for show, cause they don’t really care about us
Those little masks LOL I love this RUclipsr so much!
Thank you so much!!! 🥺
I actually saw something so so SO rasist and that is when I went out to get Royal bee in Walmart no one NO ONE wanted Royal bee baucause of her dark skin
Royal Bee is so gorgeous! I would buy her without thinking twice.
all of my omg dolls have dark skin. and I don't care! me personally don't think it was her skin I think it was her hair but yeah good point
I have Royal Bee and honestly think she is the most beautiful out of line 1 💛🖤💛🖤🐝
She seems popular in amazon though,she is flyin off the shelves so quickly!I wish they sold her in my country ;-;
I just don't like her outfit. But I do like the doll. My dollbudget is nil right now so I couldn't have purchased her anyway.
I live for the corona virus edits on the LOL OMG artwork
I think the retailers should buy an even amount of each doll, and then continue their ordering from their based off of data. If the black dolls don't have a chance to get sold, it would make sense that less people would buy it. You can't get something the store doesn't have. So to satisfy popular demand, I feel like there should be an even playing field first before decisions like the ones made by these retailers are made.
I remember when I was little, back in the 90s, they had the "teen Skipper" line with her two friends, Courtney and Nikki. I had skipper and Courtney from the first line and tried my hardest to find the other one but never could. I remember my Nana (grandmother on mom's side) asking me what I wanted for my birthday and I told her and she was like but that's the Black doll, you don't want that one, it's for black girls. I didn't even know what she meant. Luckily my Granny (dad's mother) was more in touch with reality and she was able to track down the pearl beach Nikki and Courtney for Christmas that year.
I love Speedster so so so much! I really love the representation and it’s homage to the drag race fandom! She’s my favorite so far and the next one from my wishlist!
- Your female Drag Doll❣️
I’m happy that there is someone like me likes barbies I love Barbie but get bullied
Actually growing up and not finding a doll that looks like me bothered me it's the reason I didn't like dolls until I got older when they started putting out monster high
Once when I was little, my mum told me, “honey you look beautiful today! Your hair and skin looks so bright and shiny today!” And I responded “Mommy, I’m not pretty like Caris (Caris is my British, blue eyes blond hair friend ily no homo if your reading she always told me I was amazing) or Barbie” *started crying* And that’s when my mother told me that no matter what skin color you were you were still beautiful, and that all that even mattered was your personality. (Btw before anyone asked, I’m not black I’m South Indian and brown) I believed that and I still do, anyways Story 2, once when we were lining up in First Grade I asked a new girl if she wanted to be friends, when we were interrupted by a boy in the class who said “no one will ever like you, your just a dark brown piece of poop. We only like light skinned people.” The girl stood up for me, she’s still one of my bffs to this day.
I had to get a screw to make the earing whole bigger
Clawronavirus lol
I always love your doll reviews tbh 💕💕
I've returned by Lights dolls about 2 times now and I am returning for the 3rd time this week,..I got my replacements and they STILL have flaws, I am very upset! I can't just keep returning them smh,..if they would show the dolls face in the box, they would most likey not get as much replacement claims and lose money!
I ight be a little late, but in the future, you could go to MGA's service website (I don't know the name right now) and show them the receipt and doll nd they will send you a replacement. I've never tried it, but I've heard of other youtubers doing it, so you should try it.
This was really eye opening!! I'm a doll collector ( mostly cpk's) and I collect all races and genders. In fact, my AA cabbage patch kids are some of my most treasured kiddos. It's so unsettling to hear that the Stores are not buying ethnic dolls. I was wondering why I couldn't find Angles at Target!! Thank you for informing us! Great video!
The reason is because in the past, and I mean like the last couple years, they just didn't sell. The black dolls were always passed on and their stock would end up at the very top of the shelf as over stock. When I worked at Walmart we always had left over Black dolls of all brands and most would get sent back. Now that I work in cosmetics, and I work in several states for both Sephora and Ulta, I LOVE that there is so much inclusion and that brands are growing to want more than 5 shades. But again, deeper tones aren't ordered as much because, yes the demand is there for people of color, but they're not as purchased as much so they stay in understock and most of the time the order for them is halted til it's zero in the stock for the store so it's sent separately.
So tbf, I don't necessarily blame the store 100%. I also blame the family that doesn't show children that all the dolls of color need love and can be played with. But, yes, the demand is growing for dolls of color and brands and stores need to notice now. With Rainbow High, like everyone is saying, they NEED a deeper skintoned doll. I have all of them and the colors would pop more on dark and deep skin dolls.
I know it's completely an accident but the concept art at 6:31 shows Angels wearing what is essentially a Pan Pride mask and I just HAD to point that out
I’ve have been waiting for this video for so long
In my opinion, the black dolls or dark skin dolls usually look way better in quality and appearance, the skin tones are so beautiful.
I must say I'm extremely impressed with your videos! Besides the fact that you are fabulous, your unique take is fantastic.. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I've been collecting the Hairdorables Hairmazing line, and Target was the only place I could find Kalli, the black girl.
I literally saw these dolls on sale at an Aldi near my house during April-June 2020 and this was probably why. So interesting!!
I am a white girl, but I was always disappointed when the barbies I could find in stores were ALWAYS the blonde or brown haired white dolls. Never did I see any black dolls and I was bored of the same blonde barbies. I bought an old black Barbie (80's/90's body with huge chests) from a fire market and I loved her because she wasn't a carbon copy of every other barbie.
I LOVE the black dolls, theres no reason to why they shouldn’t buy the colored dolls over “they aren’t selling as well” when there’s people still wanting them
Ur so darn pretty!
😊😊😊
the KANDEEGURL thank you so much 🥺💕
Thank you for your channel. I'm a guy who has around 200 dolls, a toy collection that is massive. I just got a pink guitar. I made so many custom Living Dead Dolls. Thank you for your channel. I've been working remote from Boston for ten months. Hearing Monster High will be back is awesome.
The OMG dolls are really cool however MGA really needs to either stop with the surprise aspect of the OMG dolls or work on there quality control because these dolls are around 30 dollars and they have some pretty bad factory defects so either really up quality control or let you see the doll in the box before you buy so you know what your paying for
As a filipino american, seeing any asian dolls was so hard. And disney only has a handful of minority princesses so I was usually Mulan 🥺
I know this is a much older video, but I still like hearing your thoughts about this community and to know more about the doll collecting community. And, I really love how you explained the start of the video towards others who don't understand why inclusive dolls that show representation matters. Because like I feel that growing up people were always like "Barbie's eyes are too big and she's too skinny" and "what message is this sending to kids?" but I was more concerned about how close I looked like to any fictional character in general. And, I remember being sad that Jasmine from Disney was the only costume I felt I could pull off because she was tan. I think there's been a lot of great progress so far with movies like Moana, Encanto, and more. But representation still matters and it's always been amazing to see a tan skinned doll like myself!
I thought that was just a thing with MGA quality, was so pissed when I opened up my busy BB, her blush was sealed into her eye (making it look diseased), the other eye had several blemishes & the denim was falling apart by the second. When I tried to return it, the store said no because it had been unboxed despite the whole point of the toy being that you can’t see it, so I had to stick it on eBay & got at least £20 of my £31 investment. This was way back in Jan/Feb so afaik Corona has nothing to do with their QC.😒
It sounds like you experienced a very frustrating situation with your Busy BB. You have every right to feel annoyed by this quality control mishap. If in the future you buy anything MGA - they have a fairly good customer service system when it comes to replacing LOL Surprise dolls & OMG's. Stores can be hit or miss - but contacting MGA directly may prove more satisfactory?? In regards to Corona - I don't think we'll experience a heightened influx of QC errors, that actually didn't cross my mind until your comment so definitely food for thought!!! - I'd probably just be repeating what I said about corona at the 5:52 stamp lol but yeah I guess we'll see !!
clawdeena9 Thanks, i’ll make sure to contact them in future if I do, I think I was so floored by the qc that it didn’t even occur to me to contact them at the time but luckily the person who bought mine was able to fix her up with some tlc. Love your content!
I love LOL dolls tbh. I’m an 18 year old girl and when I saw the dolls of color I was dying coz they looked so pretty. I’m Mexican myself and I’ve only ever owned white dolls. And as much as I love them, they sometimes make me feel worse about myself because homegirls are so thick sometimes I can’t get their clothes off. Makes me feel shit for not having a tiny wais like em
Thank you so much for discussing this issue! It's really hard in Australia as we're forced to buy these rarer dolls from overseas sellers. In regards to Dazzle, I don't like the tinsel hair for the same reasons but I specifically don't like the plastic feeling of the lower half and how that doesn't match the finish of the top. Great video keep up the amazing work gurl!!
Another Aussie! Yeah they don't even ship over here, and it sucks :P
It says a lot that I had to buy my 24K DJ from JAPAN, which is one of the least diverse countries (with Japanese making up 98.1% of the population) and even they still got the black dolls - absolutely ridiculous! The same goes for Barbie Fashionistas as well, not just the black dolls but the handicapped ones too?
10:01 I'm really loving the eBoy vibes at the end here btw
Angles looks freakin' amazing. Love her color scheme and EVERYTHING 🤩
I love darker dolls!
I LOVE your comments on this!! ALL children should be able to look at a store shelf and see diversity. No one should ever be so brainwashed by the blonde-hair-blue-eye-thin standard that they feel like they are anything less than perfect just because they fall outside of that 'standard'... It's sad.
Everybody is unique and there is more kinds of beautiful than just one. And yeah, if boys saw more representation in advertising then maybe they wouldn't feel ashamed to play with dolls. *I worked for a major retailer previously, and a young boy was being mocked by a parental figure for wanting an LOL winter disco ball*
There's no such thing as a 'girl toy' or a 'boy toy'
There's just TOY.
Anybody can play with a truck, a doll, or a dinosaur or pony. Because the point is to express and imagine. Sure you can play dolls the standard way, or you can do what my little brother did with my mom's old barbies when we were Young, (he made them fight to the death for the pretend groceries)
*Sorry so much rant, but*
TOYS NEED DIVERSITY
TOYS NEED TO BE EXPRESSIVE
and
TOYS SHOULD BE SHAMELESS~
I remember when I was little and wanted dolls. my grandmother had to drive for hours to find stores that sell dolls with brown skin. so most of my dolls were white. people of color will buy dolls for their children if these stores sell the dolls that represent them.
And I went to Walmart to see if there good enough for kids and I broke down laughing when I saw groovey babes nails had no nail polish
Excuse me but Dazzle is Everythang!!! By far my top fav alongside Shadow! Looking to add Speedster & Angles of course. I've always heard that the reason for dolls of color are so hard to come by is due to "poor sales" I remember when the made to move yellow top came out it was so hard to find because apparently the same thing happened with that doll and later the same thing happened to orange top too, which is why they also end up on clearance but I feel like when they do its because by the time they get released the heat for that line dies down as well as a lot of people just aren't aware of the verity of dolls in terms of skin tone, eyes and hair. I've been to stores doll hunting recently where I come across families in the same aisle shocked & surprised to find darker dolls with Afro hair or even Asian dolls too & I'm sure that has some influence. But what has helped me a bit is going to the stores that is located in a have more prominently people of colors, like for example I was able to find the aa floral purple top mtm in the Bronx as well as the Hispanic one. I guess it's up to us as consumers to call the stores and ask for them to get these dolls and show them that there is a demand for them.
that's why I couldn't find the bee girl 😭
I found her at Kmart but I did not get her because I wanted dollie wish I got bee tho
Oh shit thanks for the heads up on the delays! I have a five year old who is hoping for lols for her birthday and Christmas so I'll stock up now. Love your videos!!!
Target didn't purchase Chillax, either. That was the only one I wanted from that series, and everytime I looked there, it was Rollerchick after Rollerchick and a couple of the other two. Ridiculous.
When I was a kid I would ALWAYS prefer the dark skinned dolls/characters. Robecca was my fav character and doll ever, Sasha was my fav bratz, Ari Roma (she is not black cuz she is an alien but she has an afro), and layla/aisha from winx club.
Seeing kids rejecting diversity makes SO sad and mad
I wish I could buy one of these dolls but they are SOOO expensive in my country! (around R$300,00)
Well this sucks because Angles is the cutest looking doll in this video. She has the best combo of colors!! The primary trifecta!!
😷👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽"Not Crusty Chip Lip"🤷🏾that's a Hell nah💁🏾thank you for the info on the Black Dolls...you know that is helpful but it's crazy that those are facts. I❤Clawssip! You look great. Now I have to get Angles, Tinsel and Speedster...Damn🤦🏽😜
I felt like I was listening to a teacher
I was upset I couldn’t get angles sooner because she wasn’t in the stores where I live. She is my second favorite OMG doll. I am getting her today from amazon :3
“im not gonna remove cause im lazy” clawdeena9 is literally so relatable sometimes
Think the dolls should be shipped all together and they shouldn't have to separate the dolls by race. That's just dumb. And incredibly racist
Omfg I love you sooo much for this video , talking about beauty standards! And yesss agree as a boy it would have made such a huuuuge difference if I saw boys in commercials as a kid
Now as far as separate boxes go... I had NO IDEA! Not surprised, but it's frustrating. I'd have thought each doll came in their box or that each box had whichever specific dolls were ordered (like at the shops I work at, which, mind you, are FAR smaller than Target, when we order things, the whole order comes in one box and it's up to uis and the owner to sort it all out).
The suprise box factor is literally the only thing holding me back from buying these. I will not pay $40 AUD for a doll I cannot see.
I love the little mask on the intro page, it's so cute😊
I’ve recently been getting into dolls again and found your channel and I just wanna say that I love your channel, you’re the type of creator I would’ve LOVED to have when I was younger!
It really depends if the doll will sell or not. For me, i am appreciating that Mga are selling all color skin in 4 packs. I love my Royal Bee. I hope they dont do surprise boxes for the omg lol dolls.
I had no idea you were trans your beautiful! I love how you love dolls. I grew up with monster high and bratz so super nostalgia
The black omg dolls dont ship to australia!!
its so sad. only royal bee made it, but even then, she was never restocked so its so hard to find her. i had to buy her at a store that sells the dolls at almost double the price but they were having a sale so i was so lucky.
sis yes!!!! nothin worst than a lip chip!!!! imagine for collectors from latin america...we have to order them and ship to Our country , and thats EXTRA money....how do we get a replacement in this situation from MGA??? IAM SOOOO OVER THE SURPRISE TINGY!!
After watching this I'm really glad my 5 year old sister chose a black doll off the shelf that happened to be an lol omg
When I was a kid (20 years ago), I only find Asian, Black, etc dolls in small toys store but never in big stores. So yeah small toy stores.
I like having different dolls. I mainly have pale dolls and I don’t like that the only tan dolls I really have are orange dolls and I have only one black Barbie
Hah. The doll I love playing with is a pastel, a little lolita, more pastel mess. 😎😎
the OMGs come in separate assortments by doll. so theres no boxes of "all but the black doll"
the black dolls do sell less, so stores arent going to order product that isnt selling as much.
The best thing to do to change this is buying them up. give them away as gifts or middleman them to people who can find them, show theres demand. pump up those sales numbers
most stores dont tend to CHOSE what they reorder, its done automatically by sales numbers.
(i work in a toy department in retail)
LOL Surprise or Mattel LOL Surprise: Comment/ Reply
` Mattel: Like ( My vote is for Mattel )
Stores also likely look at the aesthetic of the doll, they might even do a sort of parental panel before they choose what they order. The parents likely can be either fairly conservative or people who are considering a demographic of children that's sometimes have varying disabilities. Angle is little crazy looking, personally not in a bad way, but some people may see it as something they might not want to buy their children even if they're black.
I'm black and moved to rural town. Lemme tell you... doll shopping here is a headache. The stores here cater to the demographics of the area. The black/brown dolls ocassionally are marked down and eventually placed on clearance. But the LOL OMG dolls SELLOUT everytime they are put on the shelves. The store orders ALL the skin tones because they know they'll make that cash.
I wish when I was a kid that Sasha had been in all the packs. I only had one Sasha doll as a kid because I was only able to find one pack that had them all in it. My mom wouldn't let me buy non white dolls for so long so the only way I could get Sasha was in a pack with white dolls. I love Sasha so I was always really sad when my mom would say I couldn't get her.
Thanks for the video! Loved it!
Idk why ppl fight about SKIN COLORS LIKE SRSLY??? Like? A blond tan girl is Always expected to be beautiful but like- What's wrong with being black :/ also LGBTQ+ dolls like I'm talking about dolls with a show and like I dont know like ANY shows with a les or gay ppl and I feel like it's good teaching the kids theres nothing wrong with being LGBTQ-
When I was a kid I only had one black barbie, yes I am white, but I always wanted dolls of every color when monster high dolls gained popularity i started getting those instead because they appealed to everyone.
It's about the numbers, it's fine if stores buy less of one doll over another, they know their community and what sells.
TARGET SHOULD ATLEAST BUY A COUPLE BLACK DOLLS
My grovey Bebe nails were chipped and when I moved her hands the peg broke off
i was at a toy shop today and i saw so many Angle dolls its trully really nice
I’ve been curious as to why I have yet to find the darlin’ any target they have gone!!Honestly I feel like it’s been hard to find her in general at any store I’m going to wether it’s been target or Walmart! This point I have nowhere else to look at besides white online? I find it totally unacceptable ! Especially when I use these dolls more for the body than the actual head because I like to swap them onto my Bratz ! But now I actually like repaint lol dolls so I need them all and I can’t get them all if one is excluded in stores :( it’s lame as shit and hopefully these stores try and come around to purchasing ! Thank you for clarifying though I thought I was going crazy not seeing her on shelves
let’s talk about this look 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I kind of like the line better than the winter Chalet
Here’s my problem with the black doll in a separate box thing once stores realize how many people want the dolls they buy more than they need but by the time they do that everyone who really wanted the doll already got her online which causes them to sit on shelves for months at a time which leads to the darker skinned dolls ( especially if they have 4c hair ) going on clearance sooner than there lighter skinned counter parts
That’s a gag because other doll companies like Mattel don’t do that with their black dolls...in fact black dolls sell just as much as the others. So much so that they still are made and Mattel even made exclusive black doll lines like “Shani” and “S.I.S”. Big side eye to MGA
I bought Dazzle to my daughter because is the one with most clothes on.. 😅
Mga does very well the ethnicity in dolls. So many with lol suprise But your right. They need to ship all of them together. Thats the right way to go
I am an artists and fashion desinger so I can have dolls. lol.
And yes I agree. Representation matters. stores assume people wont buy the black dolls.
But i know kids dont care and the doll collectors love all shades.
I feel like someone earned stink-eye if all the dolls are sold together EXCEPT the black doll. Each doll should be in a lot to its own so the stores can easily cater to their local demographics.
Pockets of dense, single-race populations can be found all over the US - we have a pretty dense population of Czech folk nearby. This is how we get Chinatowns and Little Koreas and whatever. To some extent, retailers do have to cater to the nearby population and their wants, but as I can testify from my adventures in trying to find a Jade doll when Bratz was first coming out: retailers *don't want to order according to customer request*. They just say "It's what corporate sent us" and ignore the people who actually shop there, and that is a GIANT hell no. Corporate off in middle America does not know local store demographics; they should leave things like this to people who know what their shopper base looks like.
1:06 - 1:37 So that explains why it was so hard to find and collect Sasha dolls...
Damn girl i thought you were i little two good shoes but now i know you have fire
Oh my I feel so awful kids shouldn’t fell bad about their look every one is beautiful
