I instantly noticed that the Jasmine doll didn't have her gold earrings and necklace. But they retained Pocahontas' necklace and gave Mulan a hair piece.
Pocahontas probably kept the necklace because she doesn’t really have any crown or hair piece like the others (mulan’s seems to be inspired by the comb from the movie)
The reason pocahontas has a closed smile could be because some native american cultures consider showing teeth as rude. Kaya From American Girl has a closed mouth smile for that reason
It doesn’t really matter when they make a Princess and her prince based off a real life child slave who was kidnapped by a white man after he murdered her family.
@@vampyrekyng_lex OK...but I was answering a question, "why is the doll made without a toothy smile." Because it is considered, by these cultures, to be impolite. Maybe I worded it poorly. I'm sorry about that.
Regarding the spillage of the color reveal: probably the plastic crown things which you stuck into your hair is missing. It is leaving a hole in the lid.
I think the reason she’s not smiling is because in Native American culture you can’t show your teeth when you smile it’s a form of respect Kaya from American girl is the only American Indian doll who does not smile for the same reason.
Pocahontas is the only representation for me that Disney has ever made that I know for Native Americans it’s so sad how much less we get rep then others like we still exist
Right but it also glorifies the horrors that happened to a young indigenous girl. I feel like they should add something at the beginning and give a big apology to the american indigenous communities too
@@yotuba9493 I have wondered about that. I have never watched the film. It bothered me at the time because I knew they would make it all happy go lucky when it was actually awful.
It’s true that Pocahontas is often left by the wayside.I would love to get more cultural references for her as well as historical references. This is so sad because her culture actually has made very stunning art and clothing there is absolutely a lot that the teams could pull from. Disney has made so much importance for other cultures including Polynesian tribes like Moana…

They did a 25th anniversary celebration. It’s on Disney+ for beauty and the beast. It’s a retelling and they do some live musical numbers with original animation from the movie as well. It’s not entirely live action.
That would be really cool, I would love that! But I think they feel like doing that would be cultural appropriation or racist in some way, and also she never wears it in the movie so it's not as "marketable", or appealing to kids... But IMAGINE a high-quality collector doll of Pocahontas dressed all-out in regalia! That would be AMAZING!
They have the minis for half the price if you don't want to bother with the color revel gimmick. They are quite cute I like them better then 11 in. ones.
I think it’s because their lips shape can’t show up in their smile. Like some people love to complain “Oh, Mattel remove their lips shape, it’s a disaster and offensive thing”. Or maybe they just feel sad because they always being left over
When you do the ily dolls can you do more then if it fits Barbie? I don’t feel satisfied with any answer weather they’d fit any G3 MH I know they can wear RH shoes but can the Ily shoes fit on them or MH since MH can wear RH shoes. And I mean BESIDES Draculaura she has her specific body type but Lagoona and Clawdeen Ghoulia have theirs and Cleo has her and Twyla is shorter but not as full figured as Draculaura. I mean you know a lot of just want to redress out G3 dolls cause Frankly their clothing is not giving. I have my eye on a Ily fashion pack I love but I’m not into the dolls too normie. I do collect Ariel but the molded on it’s a hard NO.
At least Mattel dolls have better hair than Hasbro dolls. I have gotten a few Hasbro dolls from Thrift Shops and their hair is horrible!! Untameable!! Really bad!! I end up donating them.
HI MY WORLD I BOUGHT MY BELLE DOLL FROM THRIFT STORE SHE HAS NO CLOTHES ON AND HER HAIR GOT SUPER TANGLED UP I BRUSH HER HAIR I WAS SHOOK SHE HAS LONGER HAIR I WILL HAVE TO RESTYLING HER HAIR SAME STYLED LOVE DAVID
I liked Jasmine the most!

I love Pocahontas the best!!! Her face is divine! I want to rebody it and don't even own the doll 🤣....wonder if she would fit a Barbie MTM body 🤔
The reason pocahontas has a closed smile could be because some native american cultures consider showing teeth as rude. Kaya From American Girl has a closed mouth smile for that reason
They all have pretty faces. Love Pocahontas the most❤
So much for a comeback for ever after high
Native Americans have a culture that should not smile to just be smiling. It is considered impolite.
Didn't know that!
Gosh you learn something new everyday

@@historybuff7491 I'm half Native American and I don't think you worded it poorly showing off teeth shows aggression/is considered impolite

You are a genius!!! Thank you!!
Thank you Mattel for hearing our prayers 🙏🙏🙏 of producing the original Disney princesses after years of hoping and praying.
I love the winsome and wistful smile on the face of the Pocahontas doll. I enjoy your videos.

This makes me feel more great to know I wasn’t the only boy that played with dolls and princesses because i thought I was wired.ALSO LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
Beautiful dolls🎉❤
I think Pocahontas is just more stoic than the other princesses. I know she smiled in her movie a little bit, but I don't think she smelled that much.
Pocahontas is the only representation for me that Disney has ever made that I know for Native Americans it’s so sad how much less we get rep then others like we still exist

I wish you had more and better representation.
All of them look fabulous 😍
Which one do you like the most ? I like jasmine🫶🏼🩵
My new RUclipsr much love ❤️ have a beautiful day or night ily 🤩you are so my idol 🎉

No! Please stop. She was a child slave in real life

Beautiful Doll
Hi I'm from Australia and Kmart has the royal colour reveals. Target has the ILY Disney dolls available
Mulan Doll.
Mulan.
Pocahontas looks so much like Yvonne Elliman !!!
They did a 25th anniversary celebration. It’s on Disney+ for beauty and the beast. It’s a retelling and they do some live musical numbers with original animation from the movie as well. It’s not entirely live action.
I wish for Pocahontas that they would do regalia as a "princess dress"
That would be really cool, I would love that! But I think they feel like doing that would be cultural appropriation or racist in some way, and also she never wears it in the movie so it's not as "marketable", or appealing to kids...
But IMAGINE a high-quality collector doll of Pocahontas dressed all-out in regalia! That would be AMAZING!
Pocahontas was gazing.
Mulan.
Mulan.
Beauty and the Beast came out before Aladdin did! I was 2 when Beauty and the Beast came out.
Pocahontas isn't smiling like the others due to it being cultural reasons.
Thank you for the interesting pieces of information!
But I think with all the Barbie dolls that you shown I like Pocahontas and I think Ariel
I really wanna see elsa and anna from you!! 😭😭😭
Wait for the color reveal minis what's the point of the molded skirt if they come with fabric skirts?
They have the minis for half the price if you don't want to bother with the color revel gimmick. They are quite cute I like them better then 11 in. ones.
I am in Newfoundland , Canada and I really enjoy your videos
I think it’s because their lips shape can’t show up in their smile. Like some people love to complain “Oh, Mattel remove their lips shape, it’s a disaster and offensive thing”. Or maybe they just feel sad because they always being left over
Because smiling was a sign of aggression and it was disrespectful.
Are the heads soft or hard vinyl?
First!! And I love your videos 💖
I love you❤️

It's a jasmine flower she is named after a flower
Omg
Mulan eyes look wonky.
Pocahontas is the same as American girls Kaya, in their culture smiling with teeth Isint friendly
Because in some tribes, smiling looks like a predatory wild animal (e.g. a wolf or a bear) snarling.
I am late to the game, but I knew only that showing teeth isn't good. Couldn"t remember why.
I think its leaking bc you removed the crown from the lid.
At least Mattel dolls have better hair than Hasbro dolls. I have gotten a few Hasbro dolls from Thrift Shops and their hair is horrible!! Untameable!! Really bad!! I end up donating them.
I think that's part of her cultural. Here we call them indigenous we just don't call them native Americans
I'm sorry but the molded plastic tops is so disgusting to me, it ruins all the good qualities the doll may have.
HI MY WORLD I BOUGHT MY BELLE DOLL FROM THRIFT STORE SHE HAS NO CLOTHES ON AND HER HAIR GOT SUPER TANGLED UP I BRUSH HER HAIR I WAS SHOOK SHE HAS LONGER HAIR I WILL HAVE TO RESTYLING HER HAIR SAME STYLED LOVE DAVID
Disney's Pocahontas is so problematic. The truth of Matoaka is heartbreaking.
She is native American
I really don't like Pocahontas's yebrows and eyes... There's sth off
pocahontas looks like connie from king of the hill
You can't smile showing teeth because its disrespectful Thank you American Girl
Those dark skinned gals get to dark skinned again!
The previous versions were too light...
I think it’s leaking when you shake it from the top where the comb crown is supposed to go 🫶🏼
I want to look at the photos of your son, he is nowhere to be found
