I wouldn't much rather see fashion packs that are good quality for Barbie like they did years ago when they first started. I rather have one Barbie and great quality pieces to change her in then a whole bunch of cheap fashion dolls
Y'all also had me talking out loud, agreeing with or defending. This was so fun and engaging. Love everyone's backgrounds, love the fact the whole screen is filled (doll pics into empty space next to the blonde speaker ((Cloe?)). Hi, Barbie!! 👋) Sorry I don't know everyone's names yet! This will change as I am finna binge your content.
I actually really loved that MH morticia and wish that she came by herself Hearing someone buy her and not even totally love her makes me annoyed I'm gonna be honest.
I have also been feeling the doll drought. I haven’t really been excited for much of anything that’s come out lately. I did purchase the tribute to fashion Barbie that just came out. I thought she was stunning and I am very excited about the BratzxMeanGirls collab that is coming. Otherwise, I haven’t been super enthusiastic over any releases from Mattel or MGA.
im so happy you guys are back and im really excited for season 2! i too haven’t been into collecting as heavily and am more picky about things these days. i’ve gotten into reading manga and that’s been my kind of replacement haha. though, the upcoming mean girls x bratz collab i am excited about as well as the “us” skullector dolls as that is one of my absolute favorites and i hope the dolls look good !!
Since I only collected rainbow high, I caught up on all the old dolls. I own every single one up to the first color create dolls, I won’t be getting the new reboot dolls unless they go super on sale and I’ll rebody them. But Since even the show is unwatchable now and that was my favorite thing to do was watch the cartoon and I was in a very sad funk for a while… like a few months I was kinda depressed by it but then out of the blue I rewatched Over The Garden Wall and I’m like obsessed. Started making an Over the garden wall wreath for my door, so I’m back into crafting and I decorated for Halloween weeks ago. I’m in a super fall mood! Wanna do some spooky stuff since we haven’t since before covid. Also I’ve been watching lots more anime and I’ve been enjoying it! I wanna make some custom rainbow high dolls of some favorite anime characters now. 😌
OMG I thought it was just me going through a doll drought. I moved into Tamagotchi a little while back, it started out as just a nostalgia trip back to the 90's until I realised that new devices are still being released to this day. Like you guys, I will never leave the doll world but my collecting for them has slowed down.
I have not yet broken up with Barbie but we are not as close as we once were. Rainbow High and LOL and I are done. Monster High and I still are dating. I have pivoted to Calico Critters/Sylvanian Families.
I think with Monster High Mattel never understood and produce too much dolls. They don't focus too much on the quality. I'm so tired of getting one doll with too much plastic stuff(G3). Even the pets they are not rubber they are hard plastic.I preffer the budget ones at least they don't have too much. Sculltimate secrets i like but i'm not sure if i want so many lockers and useless keys. Can they leave Frankie's robot leg alone,especially in Monster Fest why is short?
The Hocus Pocus dolls look like that because that’s where we are with G3. They are all too bright, too saturated, too pretty. G3 is better than G2, but still not great. These Sanderson Sisters dolls look great… for G3. Not great for Monster High dolls.
Another thing i have been, seeing is that at Ross or Family Dollar there putting Rainbow high dolls with the great, quality back on shelves at some certain locations depending on where you live. i had found Meena and Coco and Lila at the Family Dollar the other day which was random.
Hi guy's I'm so happy, to see u back again with the podcast I've missed seeing this in general. I have felt the doll drought for G3 Monster High but watch it pick up again. I have an idea for Johnny look into reading interactive stories, from Choices app it's all animated stories but u can create your main character name it, and it has great soundtracks. Stories I recommend u read are It Lives, Endless Summer, Blades Of Light & Shadow. There all great stories. I still customize and redesign some G3 characters but I also read some interactive stories. Also u guys forgot to talk about the, mean girl dolls done by Bratz but it was great seeing you guys again until next time.
I think there are quite a few "good" dolls coming this fall, but I think that a combination of increased prices and the glut of dolls over the past few years has left collectors feeling somewhat "full" (and maybe poor). Now that I have purchased over 300 dolls in the past 4 years, it's taking more to hook me enough to make a purchase.
If you wanna collect Pokémon cards but don't wanna spend money on it, there's an app coming out at the end of October called Pokemon TCG Pocket. Idk if you HAVE to play the actual card game against other people to keep collecting cards...but its free lol. I'm fine with a bit of a doll drought lol...although is there gonna be any Bratz product intended for the winter holiday season?? The only doll I'm currently looking forward to is if Mattel puts out a G3 Gil Webber :(... I love his design on the show.
Welcome back!🎉 Dolls dolls everywhere but not a babe to buy. The doll drought is real for me because so many are coming out, but I dont have the budget. Plus, some of the quality is lacking. Also, I think i read that mga just lost a 71 million dollar case for L.O.L. im gonna hold tight to my lols. I dont think they are going to be around long.
I have been into more high end doll collecting and that helps curb my spending (ironically) who knew spending $$$ on a high quality doll and not buying much of anything else would help ease my need for doll. Started selling a bit of my collection as well because I just want to curate what I really like and want vs. what I don't quite care for anymore.
I'm surprised you guys haven't talked about all the retro dolls coming out from The Loyal Subjects. This year, they've come out with Strawberry Shortcake and Rainbow Brite and next year is gonna be Jem and the Holograms!
@@alittleoddme1940 no unfortunately we had a leak in the house, had less than 12 hours to move everything. Been hectic 😆 at least I got to clean through everything. So happy we are back to filming episodes!
Kids ( only speaking for myself & cousin I played Barbies with)...kids like a pretty face sculpt too ! And variety. They don't want the same blonde & blue eyed Millie with every playset.
Monster High, I wonder if they do get out a big screen movie, like the rumors have suggested may happen, that it does well, so a larger budget can be put into MH too....Like you said about the Barbie movie.
