Which of this videos top 10 was your favorite doll line or most interesting? It’s a tough call for me, but MyScene is a line, they had so much drama 😂 I’d love to see Mattel bring back! Wanna see me explore a doll line I didn’t discuss? Let me know here in the comments 🥰
Novi Stars and MyScene, I LOOOVED them 🥺. Monster High was also a huge part of my childhood, I actually still have around 50 monter high dolls!
that my scene website brings sooo many memories back
@@chxrbb_dxllhouse5403 ikr!
Hi omg 💖 I finally made it to one of your lives Ur vids are the best I love your personality what is your favourite rainbow high doll omg doll brats doll and monster high sorry if it's much and il your vid soooo much edit: vids
I'd love to but only if you want to
Monster high needs to come back.
ʕ´• ᴥ•̥`ʔ
I feel like Mattel always kills any doll who even gets a tad bit close to barbies crown
Oh it's not a feeling, Mattel does not like compition at all. They always want to be number 1. Also it doesn't help that they cater to the Karen's 🙄
MATTEL KILLED THOMAS AND FRIENDS
Mga also does this 🙄
They kill their own lines too. You see what happened to Monster High, right? Ever After High got a reboot kinda thing too, now they have molded tops and are lacking details.
@@Justinya0 well their rebooting monster high and the newer monster high collectible dolls are actually good
I personally feel like people sexualize dolls too much what's wrong with a little style.
I agree, the fact that people had mentioned that bratz would be a bad influence for children yet it actually helped me realise whilst growing up I wanted to be a fashion designer...and now I’m 23 and I work in the fashion industry and design 🤷♀️
@@AnnieKonni that's so cool omfg
@@AnnieKonni fr, I had a huge fashion phase around the time that one barbie movie where she goes to paris came out and I wouldn’t have gotten into it had it not been for those stylish dolls. I mean idk wtf I’m gonna do with my life but who knows maybe I’ll get into the fashion world.
@@AnnieKonni Wow that's awesome!!
I think the problem is just that young women (and even teen girls) are just so often viewed through that lens, it's next to impossible to make a fashion doll of that age range without some people looking at her like that.
I wish novistars would continue again, their designs are so unique and cute. They had so much potentional.
Yeah.....A shame they never got to reach denmark
i love them sm i wanna start collecting them
I never had one. I want one
I agree my favorite dolls in the video are pinkie cooper and novi stars.
They should revive novi stars and pinkie cooper.
I used to have one but I ruined it... I really wish I hadn't they were so cool
Doll line: hi-
barbie: are you challenging me??
I had a Moxie Girlz doll, let me just say this: bitch had a basketball that opened and inside there was a disco ball. What a queen...
Omg I remember this!!
Also there was a skateboard that opened up into a whole make up station!
I had a moxie doll too! If I recall, it was a blonde one that came with a pink sock monkey doll.
I personally preferred the Moxie Girls and Liv dolls over Barbie as a kid!
I HAD THAT ONE.. she had a skateboard that became a vanity
Barbie and Bratz having an argument
Liv : our time has come
LMAOOO LITERALLYYYY!!
LMAOOOOO PLSSSSSSSSS
* look at them for less than 1 second and continue arguing * 😂
@@Clawdeena9 if they continue the Disney line I would want 4 to be Jessie and Emma from well Jessie. Liv and Maddie. Riley and Maya from Girl Meets World
@@zacharyandautumnbruggen72 YESSSSSS!!! Skai was my bby so I'd love a doll of her especially with her old poofy hair style 😍🥰
I always feel bad for the artists who work so hard on designs for dolls and it gets shut down in like, two years. Even if the physical dlls themselves were a little less than good, it's still pretty obvious the passion that went into designing them at all.
Why? They can work on other lines
@@-nymph. because they work hard on that line even if they switch it does not change how much work they put in to the old line
@@mugwump_noodles666 okay but that’s just what happens sometimes. there’s a 50% chance it’ll get discontinued. you don’t know what can happen.
@@-nymph. they know but that does not change the fact that they were working hard and putting a lot of love in to that line
@@-nymph. and? Damn ppl can’t feel a little bad for ppl? Geez
I'm so sad that Novi Stars are discontinued, I didn't buy them when they first came out cause I wasn't sure about spending the money and then suddenly they vanished and now even the secondhand dolls are $$$ 😭
Same, I had one when I was like super Young and it scared me so I barely played with it, honestly they were good toys and had unique design
Idk about other countries, but in Russia you can still find nrfb dolls for like 20$.
ik! me and carmela sweets have the same name and there's never been adol with with my name before so I would love to have her.
Alternate tittle: 10 times Mattel or MGA felt threatened and stole styles to make them shut down
Finally someone said it
Doll line: *Breathes*
Barbie: get out
Barbie and Bratz: lol no
Bratz: no u
Barbie, Bratz, and Monster High: no❤️
Lol
Maybe parents should stop sexualizing their kid's dolls.
PERIODDDD- like if u think a doll is "sexy" u have a serious problem.
Ikr also most kid dolls are teen dolls or younger-
@The Untyped Eevee, did you just diss Integrity Toys
@@Entertainment-el6jg no I didn’t intend to do that I was just simply agreeing to the comment and adding onto it with the statement that “companies shouldn’t really make adult toys targeted to kids because the kids could loose the accessories or it’s to expensive etc” but I mean kids can still play with it I guess :)
@@Entertainment-el6jg I think that integrity toys are marketed for adults since they are collectibles, I might be wrong tho
Barbie really stepped up their game. Now they have SO MANY different racial backgrounds, body types, and so much more. They even have “creatable world” which lets people make whatever styles, hair, and outfits they want. Absolutely no strictly “gendered” clothes. Y’all are geniuses Mattel
Barbie sales went up in 2019 and I think the diversity was one of the big drivers of that. Putting aside any discussions about the benefits of representation, looking at it from a child play standpoint... Kids often play with their dolls as different "characters". And it's much easier to have lots of different characters when all of your dolls look different! Doll lines and action figure lines that create established characters (as opposed to the blank slate nature of Barbie) understand this perfectly well and try to make each character look distinct.
I think creatable world is discontinued now :( cuz maybe girls wouldn't but them cuz they're not like pink and have dresses and boys you know even if a boy wanted to buy them parents would say NO boys can't play with dolls etc. Like literally let the kids play with the toys they wanna play with I really wish they weren't discontinued cuz they had amazing Fashions with real zippers and Jeans made of real denim and had pockets and they were fully articulated and gender neutral dolls were really a new thing in the doll Industry it was probably one of Mattel's best doll line EVER! 💖💖 BTW sorry this comment is too long 😅
@@studygram_ Well, the doll industry is pretty tough to succeed in. A big problem a lot of doll lines have is that they don't really stand out from a play standpoint. Gender neutral dolls are a cool concept to progressive-minded adults, but it's not something that most kids really care about. From a child's perspective, they're just regular dolls with normal, boring clothes. They don't inspire interest or creative play. This is a problem that "wholesome", morally-drive doll lines typically run into.
@@studygram_ "ITS NOT A PHASE MOM!"
@@goneforevers true
Anyone remember the Bratzillas line? I think it was one of MGA's attempts at competition with Monster High
YES I DO they were an awesome line but they did have differences like them being witches and have pets that are sold separated and did something and they also had the inset eyes like what novi stars had
@Asia Gandy Same I love the music video I still listen to it lol
OMG!! Yesss!
Glam gets wicked tonight
@@loliwinxedits6095 Yesss!!!
I was today years old when I realized "Your Thing" magazine was them shading MyScene
They were really shading everyone with the bratz cartoon.
Sameee😭😭
Sameee
Same
Ikr? This whole time too! 😂Like I-
"10 times Mattel and MGA stole things from small fashion doll companies who were too poor to sue them"
I’m here for Mealrose, arreezina, buyjoe, and trystain.
LIVING!!!!
LOL
Some of the names had me losing it. And I don’t know if those are the actual names or just a mispronunciation on the video’s part.
@@krys1581 it’s a mispronounced. Commercial says overwise
I literally had to go back to make sure I heard what I heard…..
Ok this video unlocked a repressed memory! Does anyone remember lalaloopsy? And their movies and tv show it was so much fun! I still have the dolls after so many years I think their still continued idk 🤔
OMG YES, I heard they are coming back this fall 2021
OMGGGG YESSS
I do remember that line. My cousin used to love them.
When she mentioned LaDeeDa I immediately thought of LaLaLoopsy 💀
There also was a Japanese fashion doll line? I think they had a name with the word Tokyo in it? They were pretty similar to LaDeeDa and never spoke in their webisodes (there were some)... They had like colorful animal-themed hats and outfits, I think one had a whole panda or penguin themed outfit... Anyone remembers/knows what I'm talking about?
One thing I've learned with this video. Barbie doesn't know how to let other dolls exist lol
MGA create Bratzillas and Novi Stars to compete with Monster High, and Moxie Teens to compete with Liv. And now after Monster High and Ever After High they are doing Rainbow High
I think both Mattel and MGA are not so nice with other brands getting the same appreciation as their line’s
Not Barbie but the brand maker / company , Mattell or MGA or what ever they call them selves. I think it is sad. Just like the trolls vs trollz thing. Sigh.
BAHAHAH FR THO
tHeRe CaN bE oNlY oNe
I just imagined Barbie beating the other dolls up 😳
I just wish Mattel and MGA would just be friends! I love all of the toy lines they both produce, and imagine if they made a doll together 😍
Omg yesss
Honestly, when I was younger and probably until 2015, I thought that My Scene was a doll line that was a collaboration between Mattel and MGA.
It’s really sad, I had a lot of these dolls and I was confused when they suddenly disappeared from the market.
Im so sad they discontinued Novi Stars, the concept and dolls themselves are absolutely stunning (imo)
Not exactly my thing but I can see why you'd like 'em
The more sultry My Scene dolls are probably my favorite dolls. Like ever. I love their faces!
I had the myScene CD game and it was sooo much fun! The only doll I had was the one with the curly hair
I loveddddd the myscene dolls the faces are so good, the hair so voluminous and the clothing 😍 chelsea and madison where my fave. I had a doll with this gorgeous green dress.
Yaas. I Got almost 30 of them🙈
Your face tho 😍😍💘
My scene was my childhood I hope they reboot it
Nonononoonono you do not want something you like being rebooted monster high and Winx club were softly rebooted and look at them now imagine what a full reboot would look like
@@shesawtheedits monster high "reboot" is still kinda good, However the Winx one is just...
No❤️
@@hal-fling yeahhhh, I still love Winx, don't get me wrong. But um.... they're really tailoring to the kids who don't really care.
@@shesawtheedits yeah. I'm glad i grew up on the original Winx
@@hal-fling same
3:13 wow.... i can't believe Mattel tried again what they did with "Growing Skipper" *30 years before!* :o
Im still sad nowadays that i didnt purchase novistars back then everytime i see a video about it. Its just so pretty and the concepts are out of this world and its aesthetic is so cute. I hope they bring it back cus its now sold more expensive
Yeah they were pretty cool dolls actually. I had like three of them. I think Novi Stars was a really great idea. I wished it lived on in the doll market for a couple more years tho
@@lunarspace1196 it even has different gimmicks per character even as adults its just great to look at and so interactive. Wish they would bring it back
Honestly... I was too much of a tomboy to admit I want one so I feel you.
I never saw the dolls in store, so seeing them in this video was new to me. I really wish I got to own one.
the Novi Stars dolls had SUCH cool concepts!!!
O M G i have had a moxie girls doll this hole time, i thought it was just a really screwed up Yasmin :/
Why is this sending me I- 😭💀
@@bratzscene3131 I wish I was😭
for some reason I had a moxie liquid chapstick
Lmao
Omg
Jem and the holograms was underrated! Loved the comic books (a bit different than the tv show, but much more faithful than the movie), and I never heard the rumor that the band was originally an all-male group.
I’m so glad someone’s talking about Liv dolls lol. I remember loving those dolls so much. I loved the complete customization and posability with the wig and the articulation.
I CANT WITH THE BIANCA DEL RIO AS JUDGE JUDYYY OMGG
i was about to comment the same thing 💀 bianca is an iconnnn
BOLOGNA
I feel like lammily wasn't created for children, but for their parents. I Don't know anyone who would've chosen lammily over Barbie when they were kids 🤡🤡
Pretty much. Body type aside, Lammily's whole schtick is being a "regular girl" who does wholesome things and wears regular clothes... But to a child, that's boring. What's more, Barbie has plenty of "wholesome", role modely things to choose from. I feel like a lot of the people who try to make "wholesome" alternative to Barbies don't understand the appeal of Barbie in the first place. People think that she's just pretty and likes fashion, but the big appeal of Barbie is that she's this blank slate who represents endless possibilities. She has so many different hobbies and careers to choose from, and the "wholesome" alternatives rarely offer anything that Barbie doesn't. Lammily I think had photographer, astronaut, doctor, and artist... But Barbie has all of those too and so much more.
I'm also a little skeptical that kids really get all that insecure over the body types of their dolls. Most dolls are stylized, they're not supposed to look totally realistic. A doll with realistic proportions and no makeup is going to look boring and uninteresting to most kids.
@@StarlightPrism Yeah, I agree with that last part. When I was little, I never looked at a Barbie and thought “Why can’t I look like this?” I just thought “well, everyone looks different and that isn’t me, so it’s fine.”
@@nina9972 My thinking is that Barbie is intended to be an adult woman, so I really doubt that young girls are comparing themselves to her. Adults might do that, but not kids.
Also, a lot of people don't realize this, but dolls often have weird proportions so they can be easier to play with, or look better with clothes on. For example, a fashion doll always needs to have a thigh gap so she can wear pants. And take into account the fact that the fabric used in doll clothes is not proportionately thin to match the size of the doll: it's regular fabric. If the doll has realistic proportions, the clothes will end up looking too bulky on her and it doesn't look good. (this is really easy to see with the neck: Barbie has a long neck because a realistically proportioned neck length would cause her neck to be covered up too much if she wears certain styles) Barbie's creator wanted it to be very clear that Barbie was an unambiguously young adult woman, so her figure needed to leave no question about it.
Personally I think the outrage over Barbie is just a testament to the way society views the adult female form as inherently sexual. (especially certain body types) People view Barbie as sexualized because she has boobs and big hips... But lots of real women have boobs and big hips.
@@StarlightPrism Yeah it’s a fashion doll, not a doppelgänger.
I feel like if the whole campaign wasn't bluntly dissing Barbie and she had better articulation and style choices they would have stuck around longer
I had mostly myscene dolls.
Now everyone looks like them, haha
The way Arizona was pronounced, couldn't help but laugh 😂
I agree. How about Mealroz instead of Melrose. I think she Pronounced all 4 of them wrong. Byjoe instead of Bijou. But the one that takes the cake is Tristain instead of Tristen...Lol😂🤣
The way you pronounced the Moxie Teenz’s names sent me😂
ARIZONA WKDJWJKRJFJF IK
I'm glad someone else found it funny heheeee
Lol
The way they said Bijou..... X'D
I had to rewind like what did I just hear? LOL MEAL ROZ
the growing up my scene dolls are literally a recreated version of the growing up Skipper from the 60s lol like Mattel couldn't think of an original idea?
plus, both were considered “scandalous” toys during the time of their releases...for obvious reasons. it’s weird that after how much controversy growing up skipper caused that they would recycle the idea
@@amazingdollart4676 because parents are afraid of puberty
@@amazingdollart4676 because parents have a phobia of puberty.
@@tornadodee148 it’s so weird why?? Like I don’t understand what’s wrong with puberty the doll could teach girls what happens when they are older or whatever.
I just learned something
Can you PLEASE talk about the animal-humanoid dolls that never came out?? (Wild childs) I'M DYING TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM
Half of my childhood in one video this hit me so hard
same
I love my scene so much!! Even tho they are based of bratz, I love that they have amazing accessories and fashionable clothes just like bratz but they actually fit Barbie and the play sets and everything they did was superior!! Plus they were the first to be a little more diverse than Barbie they’re SO UNDERRATED.
Yessss, I also love that they have a stylised look with more "realistic" proportions (compared to Bratz massive heads and super thin limbs). They always sat as the perfect combination of both Bratz and Barbie's strengths to me.
@@bratzscene3131 I’m late but omg exactly!! Like my scene was the best de and yeah the good thing about not so popular dolls like my scene is that they aren’t that wanted by collectors therefore not as expensive as others
I've found my people 🥺🥰❤ I know literally zero MyScene-biased people
@@bri_33 yesss MyScene is awesome
They also had the best internet presence. I remember really liking the 2D style of the webisodes in contrast to the 3D bratz and barbie style.
One thing we can all agree one though. Novi starz and myscene were STUNNING.
Hearing about My Scene was such a nostalgia trip -- I collected a butt load of My Scene dolls back in the day, including the bling bling and masquerade ones shown in the video (had no idea that they were that expensive! I thought only the Winx dolls were expensive AF lol). They were my jam, back when as a young teen I loved Quizilla and Black Eyed Peas, and My Scene dolls fit into this aesthetic perfectly. I also preferred them to Bratz, because I thought that the Bratz dolls looked too grotesque (shiny lipgloss, everything exaggerated especially their heads and feet). My Scene was like a tamer, more refined version of that.
I didn't know about the conscious decision to go from "Barbie" to sultry though -- I just thought they were different lines of dolls xD ironically I have ones from before and after. The before-look was actually really nice tbh, the blonde girl that I have from the pre-sultry era has a great, wide smile and squarish head, looks a lot like Margot Robbie :D
My favorites were Chelsea (being a brunette) and Nolee (being more punk than the others) -- I never bought the "moving faces" or puberty dolls that appeared briefly in the video though (they were a bit too odd for me xDD). But what wasn't shown in the video were the swappable heads and male lines. There was a popular line involving a trio of looks for each of the main girls: one was a smart college/office look, one a complex night-life look, and one an every-day/youthful look. And each look was accompanied by a separate /head/ (or rather, bust). A button on the back of the doll let you swap heads, and at the time I thought this was little novelty was absolutely revolutionary. But I don't think I've seen it on dolls since. It was definitely a page taken from the book of action figures, where swapping limbs and heads is par for the course, but it was pretty innovative thing to give to a Barbie-like fashion line.
And then there was the male line of dolls, which were /highly/ sought after because at the time, they were the hottest male fashion dolls out there. A big problem with Ken was his goofy smile, thick neck, and short out-of-fashion haircuts. Also, Ken dolls were well known for a long time to feature far less articulation than Barbie -- the Ken dolls that I have from the 90's and 2000's barely bend in the knee, and their arms are rigid (either straight or at an angle). The My Scene guys by comparison looked like they came straight out of a diverse boyband: fashionable hairdos, male jewelry, a lot of articulation, accurately representing popular male fashions (especially the skater style). The two that I have look like Archie and Jughead from Riverdale, if Archie had dirty blonde hair instead of red, and Jughead was a tad stockier.
There was also My Scene furniture (and I think even vehicles and a party van?). At any rate, a huge part of the appeal of My Scene was that it reflected all the cool grown-ups that our magazines and TV shows bombarded us with while growing up. Of course there were adult elements (hell, at some point or other I got some sexy lingerie and a bedroom set for my My Scene dolls), that was integral in the aesthetic. Buuut I think that more than parents being upset with the ostensible sexiness of it all, the My Scene fans much like myself had simply grown up by 2014. Styles had changed. The skater look was already out for several years, and the sultry urban street-chic style was no longer in vogue either. We lost interest, no new fans were coming in anymore, so My Scene lost customers.
It's the same story with other doll lines that tapped into a novelty or aesthetic particular to an era, until it petered out: Polly Pocket, Barbie's knock-off Not-Scooby-Doo Mystery Gang line (which was freaking awesome btw), those articulated and non-curvy explorer dolls (they all had cool occupations like scuba diver, survivalist,...), Barbie's outlandish collapsible vehicles (like a party plane and a disco van -- the latter of which I used to own, it was a tour van that turned into a night club). Today it's stuff like Monster High and Ever After, heavily influenced by the popularity of anime and the "morbid but cute" aesthetic. Tomorrow it's bound to be something else!
Actually since both Monster High and Ever After High got discontinued, and now Lol Surprise and Rainbow High are dominated the doll world i would say we are going back to more trend based doll lines
The doll brands I remember from this list are: MyScene, NoviStars, Liv, Moxie Girls and LaDeeDa.
Gaga was supposed to have a bratz doll but it was canceled cause she wanted the head to be removable(shes such a queen)
R u fuckin kidding me!!!! 😳 *shakes fist up high* Gagaaaaaaaa! 😫
actually the doll was released in 2016 (i think) during some of the reboots of monster high. you can still get her on amazon for about $120 :))
@@bellagarcia9514 I know I'm talking about in 2011 bratz and gaga were working on a gaga doll
She wasn’t a bratz doll, it was just made by the same company that makes the bratz. And the reason why she didn’t approve them was because MGA wanted to rush them out for the summer of 2012 but Gaga wanted to wait until 2013 with the release of her album. So MGA decided to sue Gaga for 10million for intentionally delaying the approval of the dolls and for loss of revenue. Y’all can google the dolls, the prototypes look cute
@@kmfanatic ruclips.net/video/tCbBmggYxQU/видео.html
Here's a fun fact!: My name is Katie, and my sister's name is Sophie and we both share names Liv dolls!! We both ended up buying the dolls with our names :)
My sister and I loved the Liv dolls and were sad when they were discontinued. I just wish they would have made boys too! Our boy barbies heads were so small in comparison hahaha
@@AllThingsFantasy there was a boy !! i just wish there were more boy dolls, maybe even ones that had interchangeable wigs like the girl dolls. if i was playing with my liv dolls, jake (the only male liv doll) had to play every male role in the same red tank top and swim shorts unless i wanted to break out my monster high dolls 😔 liv dolls had a lot of potential to me and it was sad to see them go
Jem was my obsession! I even named a dog after her.
Mattel really saw everything as a threat like damn y'all have that little confidence in Barbie? 💀💀💀
I remember La Dee Da. Their outfits were cute and they had super high quality hair. However something about their faces made me uncomfortable. They were also very thin, which I tend to not fuss about in other doll lines, however I felt La Dee Da pushed it a bit too far.
No I agree, they are like way too thin stylistically and their heads are way too big. I was turned off by it too and I normally don't care.
I have the genie one and honestly... They're super ugly. Their clothes are really fragile and their head are super squishy. They're just overall really weird
It's the eyes. The eye positioning/where they're looking are what's wrong with their faces.
I’m not really a fan of lammily’s design. But I really like the idea of an educational fashion doll!
Liv dolls were one of my favorites as a kid. I loved how you could change their hair and stuff. My mom thought it was kinda creepy, them and the original Barbie fashionistas where you could take their heads off
The only dolls here I would pay to return would be Novi Stars, I had one that I loved and now I realize that they existed
I don't like lamily and her aesthetic though I do like the idea of a period pack to help girls and boys learn more about the female body and to normalize periods
Same, but I mostly don't like Lammily's "name." I always found it to be a bad and awkward name for a doll.
And who said periods aren't normal?
@@sunspotmill1291 a lot of people havent grown up with periods being seen as normal. idk what's going on nowadays tho
also yea i hate lammily's name. lammily? more like lameily smh. they couldve done better
@@ocinidolegna I guess talks about periods are considered more of a private thing for some girls. Some people probably might even find them embarrassing. As a kid, I always just kind of saw periods as a fact of life once I've learned about them before I started middle school. And no girl will get laugh at or something if they had to be excused from doing certain sports like swimming while being on their periods. But I guess things are bit different now and Lammily does work as one way to demystify periods.
@@ocinidolegna Right? It's a terrible name. They definitely could've been more creative with the name or give her a normal one like "Lauren" or "Leslie."
I Want To Know More About Wild Child Dolls
Here it is, Wild Childz was made in 2015 by a super small company. Almost all if not all of the art for Wild Childz is drawn by the artist for Howleen Wolf @Darkoart. They never ever made any dolls nor releasing merchandise. They seem to be making a come back as they’ve recently released face masks I believe at the end of last month or at the start of December and they’re still working on finding a good body for the dolls, they’re slowing rolling out new art.
The inner furry in me would’ve loved Wild Child as a kid. At least I was able to get Pinkie Cooper
@@ROBLOXMaskedSinger the wild childz artwork is NOT by darkoart, it is by @rondellmcleod on Instagram, he is the creator, the artist and is the owner of dreamcleod LLC, a toy company he freshly created and presumably will be manufacturing wild childz dolls under.
@@dimini4267 I Loved And Still To This Day Love Pinkie Cooper
@@beccaniccals2256 That’s amazing. It’s a shame they weren’t popular. I thought that them owning pets was really weird lol
Personally to me, Lammily looks nothing like the "average" 19 year woman.
Edit: I'm not body shaming the woman that Lamily is based on, I'm just pointing out that most 19 year olds don't look like she does.
I know right?? I’m 19 and that’s not even close to my body
The MyScene dolls in their later years were so gorgeous, I would definitely want Mattel to bring them back
It’s because of Bratz and Myscene that I care so much about my group of friends, love fashion, going out and boys lol
frrrrrrr like yesssssssssss
omg Im fuckin dense I typed out a whole thing about how same but I'm a guy, then I read your name. take my man loving licence now smh
Same
It's sad that Moxie Girlz was cancelled, i still have one of them, i always thought she was so beautiful amd i ised to pretend she was the younger sister of one of my barbies 😂
Same! I got a Masquerade Lexa when I was little and I used to adore her until my older sister gave her a haircut and I lost all her stuff.
@@BlooLynx oh noooo :(
My aunt grew up in the 80s, and she loved Jem she had all of the holograms. I would go to her house, and play with the dolls, while watching the show. Good times❤ she kind of started my doll collecting obsession lol.
Okay but Lammily taking it to the next step with those period pads. Damnnnnn
In regards to Jem vs Barbie, the whole ‘which doll was released first?’ issue was already clarified in one of the ‘Toys That Made Us’ episodes on netflix .The true story is: Mattel heard that Hasbro was going to release the Jem doll line and they quickly came out with Barbie and The Rockers dolls before the Jem dolls were launched.
Varner studios also created Bleeding Edge Gothic dolls, also known as Begoths. They are my all time favorite doll line. Could be worth covering 💜
Those dolls are so cool! Thank you for noting this 🥰🖤
Once Upon A Zombie is a really underrated doll line, but I’m not sure if they were discontinued or what happens to them.
Yeah, unfortunately the line was discontinued. Im not sure why, but only 3 episodes into the series and while many dolls were in the prototype stage, it was discontinued.
It really sucks, after Alice was produced there was going to be Tinker Bell, Pocahontas, The Prince and more!! I would've killed to see them!!
the clip of the moxie girls mermaid commercial gave me so much nostalgia mannn take me back to the good days
Novi Stars is literally so iconic like.....
They should bring back the Novi Stars and release the mummy, dragon, and mermaid on the shelves
I was so obsessed with my Moxie Girls dolls!! I was never allowed Bratz as a kid so they were the closest I could get without stealing actual Bratz dolls from my friends lmao, and that theme tune from the advert was sooo catchy ahaha
Yooooo, did you really pronounce "Melrose" as "Meel-roz" and "Arizona" as "Ah-ree-zin-ah?"
I mean, you got Tristan and Bijou wrong too, but why?
Apparently to parents, skinny people just don’t exist or are “harmful”
I’m pretty petite myself so it upsets me when bigger sizes are called “realistic”
like what? Do I not exist? lol
Omg it's you lol
Nope, you're just a figment of my imagination.
Does anyone else remember once upon a zombie? I remember watching the three episodes that were released on youtube, reading the book and really wanting the dolls! They had a pretty original concept even if they were only supposed to be mh/eah competitors and I am sad that the line got cancelled considering they confirmed about 15 characters to get dolls that ended up never being released
I remember these!! I wanted the Alice one, I don’t think I ever saw them in stores
I love Once Upon a Zombie!! They were basically a mix of Monster High and Ever After High. I have Snow White and they’re really cheap to get online.
Omg me too! I'm still waiting for more episodes even though I'm 22 now 😂
I am from europe and I remember Madison being Westley. Usually the names are changed because legal reasons, for example Moana (Disney) in Spain is Vaiana because a perfume was called like the Internacional name of the princess. Sometimes (probably this time) names are changed to make them look more near to our culture, in many European countries Aisha (winx club) is called Layla (Eventhough Winx is an italian production), maybe that happened to Madison. I can not clarify anything, but, that can be one option. Great video Clawdeena💖💖💖
21:14 I remember watching tv when i was younger, and seeing these weird dog dolls- I thought they were so pretty and i asked for them so many times, but i never got one.
bruh the myscene dolls literally didnt ring a bell i didnt recognise them at all but as soon as i saw the website.... unlocked memories
myscene website was everything for me...i would come back from school to play every game every single day 😂 so many memories
That was a lot of fun
I remember really wanting a Liv doll. I was really fond of the ability to change their hair. I also still have the Moxie Girls DS game
Huh, that bit you mentioned about Cosmic High would explain the post credits scene in Boo York, Boo York with the bit about Astranova calling her friends on the phone to tell them about the place she's at and how it's real. I always find it weird about why she's talking to Apple White and Raven Queen from Ever After High. I know that's meant to be a teaser for Ever After High and yes, C.A. Cupid would move from Monster High to Ever After High since they're likely in the same universe, but after hearing about Cosmic High and how it was canceled due to Novi Stars and how they decided to make Ever After High instead, the post scene now makes sense and I imagine that if Cosmic High wasn't canceled, Astranova would've been chatting with her friends from Cosmic High instead of Apple and Raven from Ever After high. I do wonder if since Novi Stars is long gone and Monster High is reviving and seems to be coming back as what the franchise was originally, they'll eventually bring back Cosmic High too. Maybe not, we'll see.
Does anybody remember Harumika dolls? They were manikins that you could punch different fabrics into the back of and create your own fashions I just feel like I never hear about it
I do
Monster high and ever after high had so lines put on clearance😭
This is such a well done video! Love how clearly you explain everything! So fun!!!
I really wanna see the Wild Child’s doll lines also remember the zombie fairytale doll lines i forgot what they were called but there were some dolls of zombie fairytale princesses
The LaDeeDa dolls brought back a huge wave a nostalgia. I used to adore them. I have the Asian one and the one in the Paris dress.
Omg i had de in her Bollywood outfit and Tylie as the snow queen they were so pretty
@@-m-7135 that’s so cool!!
i still have my india one, pink lollipop one, pineapple one, and the purple girl. i dont understand why they discontinued them -- they were so cute and perfectly fine. the clothes and factory paint were fantastic and they even had poc characters ! honestly, what the hell.
@@burntmother. YEAH!
I had the sunflower girl and the paris one! The nostalgia
Yo, I was here at the live talking about how I miss Novi Stars. Today, I went to some random store with my mum and I found a Novi Star doll and I got her. Her name is Sila Clops and I friken love her 💕👁💕
She is the doll at 5:45 (On the right)
• Stacy • which store
22:51 THANK YOU for unlocking a childhood memory that I forgot existed! 💖my heart just melted
your stop motion skills are so good!
I used to love the Novi Stars dolls. I sadly never had any, cuz I was unemployed at the time, but I wanted all of them.
The eyes on these dolls are giving me nightmare fuel bruh
Same. Glad to know I’m not the only scared by them
The Pinkie Cooper line almost made me wish there was doll made based off of Isabella from Animal Crossing.
I would've loved more Pinkie Cooper dolls.
They are so cute, might not be everyone's thing but you gotta give it to them to for the effort in the dolls and pets.
Blushed limbs and interchangeable ears? Adorable.
The cartoon to go along with it "Pinkie Cooper And The Jet Set Pets" is quite charming and I would've loved a doll of the pilot, and the main reoccurring male dog character in the show.
I'm really sad those dolls were discontinued. I used to have one back in the day.
If there's enough info out there I'd love something about the catwalk kitties doll line! They're pretty rare to come by now but I remember getting one as a child!!
Omg yess!!! I remember Catwalk Kitties were compared to Monster High all the time when MH first launched - I didn't realize they'd become so expensive!!
@@Clawdeena9 Never heard of them! Definitely would love a video about them and more videos like this! So well done as always
I'm so happy that you talked about the Moxie Girlz and Moxie Teens, I managed to get a Bijou from a thrift shop and I love her!
omg i used to watch you when i was younger, this is so nostalgic lol
Do a vid about wild child dolls!! Honestly this vid is giving me major nostalgia!!💜
A lot of these dolls came by the time I was no longer playing with dolls, but my favorites when I was a kid was bratz, Polly pocket, and soda pop girls (which are still in my closet)
Never heard of soda pop girls before!
It’s the ✨Areeezahna✨ instead of Arizona pronunciation for me 🙃
LMAOOO - All I'mma say is plzzz watch Noelle on DisneyPlus 😂
Barbie is so hard to compete with because she's intentionally this blank slate a child can project anything onto. A lot of people mistake this for Barbie being a bimbo who only likes fashion, but really she allows for a lot of imagination and represents endless possibilities. The only doll lines that have been serious competition for Barbie are the ones that can offer something that Barbie doesn't. Sometimes it's a style that Barbie doesn't do, other times it's having established character and story. Having the dolls be explicitly in high school can also help, since Barbie is almost always presented as a young adult woman these days.
And this is part of why dolls intended to be "wholesome" alternatives to Barbie don't work out. They act like they're doing something different, but all they have is a doll with a less appealing design and far fewer play options than Barbie. They do the same blank slate schtick but with only a handful of options. I'm certain that Lammily appealed more to parents than to children, I don't think many kids are actually comparing themselves to dolls. (especially highly stylized ones, and especially ones that represent adults or older teens)
I never heard of Lammily, but like, that is the coolest concept tbh. It was really groundbreaking, and I kinda wish the menstrual cycle idea was kept around in other dolls to teach kids.
1:52 The most Y2K thing about this image is the Barbie and the Diamond Castle sidebar ad
When I say I got chills seeing the Jem dolls I got CHILLS! My mom's an 80s baby and she loved Jem and the Holigrams and we watched it together when I was younger. I remember my mom gave me hers to play with. I cannot remember what happened to her though.
Omg when I got my Liv doll for my birthday as a kid I was so excited! I took it with me everywhere. I had Alexis and didn’t want the others
Hey! I was the project designer for Mattel's Disney VIP Sharpay dolls, Winx Club and Hannah Montana. Those were fantastic lines that should have lasted longer than they did.
Oh my god Novi Stars! I had one with mechanical eyes and I thought she was so creepy! Thinking back, I'm really sad I threw her out, Novi Stars are actually really cute :(
I LOVE Jem and watched the show as a kid!! While I only had a few of the dolls as a kids I collect both Hasbro and Integrity dolls as an adult! I also had Barbie and the Rockers as a kid and have a few of them now but I will always be a Jem Girl♥️
You've got taste!! I agree, Barbie and the Rockers are fun, but me and my friends are ✨Jem Girls✨ *Que Jem Season 3 Theme*
Great video! About Jem vs Barbie and the Rockers . . . In the 80s there was a law that an animated show couldn't run ads for its own products during its runtime. So, like, Hasbro could run ads for Transformers toys during the GoBots cartoon, but they couldn't advertise TF toys during the TF cartoon. Mattel weaponized this by continually running ads for Barbie & the Rockers during the super-popular Jem & the Holograms cartoon . . . but Jem couldn't do the same because there was no Barbie & the Rockers show!
OMG THE VIP DOLLS!!!!! i still have ceecee and rocky in a little box somewhere, i got them for xmas one year when i was super obsessed with shake it up. i always wanted the chyna one since ant farm was my other favourite show at the time. i was also a monster high fan when novi stars launched, and im pretty sure i had the see-through white and blue one, but im not sure. i definitely remember having one of them, though.
