5:57 You're SERIOUSLY underestimating just HOW big Monster High was at the time. At the time they were first released, they were actively whooping Bratz' butt at the toy aisles and making Barbie VERY nervous, since they were starting to eclipse her as the best selling doll at Mattel. They were SO BIG that MGA even pulled a "My Scene" and tried ripping off the success of Monster High with a doll line called "Bratzillaz".
Most normal ppl don’t hate on barbie or bratz. A lot of weird people usually hate on Bratz and that’s cause so many delusional misogynistic conservative religious freaks think Bratz fashion is “slutty” which is so disgusting and messed up to think. Bratz have fashion & creativity and they are absolutely gorgeous. Barbie is gorgeous too and the same people who hate on barbie are usually also misogynistic weirdos as well.
Nah, as a latina in latin america, Barbie never appealed to me. Bratz dolls were more genuine, while Barbie was the personification of a white rich woman.
I love both barbie and bratz and i always have. My parents didnt buy me bratz dolls nearly as much as barbie but i always loved the bratz and y2k esthetic. I only have 3 bratz dolls now vs almost 100 barbie dolls but i will always love them. Great job on this video
The glam barbie we grew up with is NOT who she is today. Since 2015 Barbie has been horrible, so Bratz easily takes the cake for the aesthetic category
Very good and honest video. I am torn between these twos since Barbie the Movie launched recently. Honestly I started falling in love with Barbies when I was three years old in 1963. I was absolutely crazy over their fashion of clothes. It was so detailed and feels very real clothing with original buttons, zippers, all that cute designs. I love to dressing them over and over … with many different imagination to play with. My mom used to tell me I am too old playing with dolls when I was well over teen years. Then many years later, I begin to see Barbie becoming like blah because the design of clothing didn’t appealed to me. Yes, Mattel was becoming lazy but I was unaware of other collecting line of collectibles Barbies do existed at that time. When I first saw Bratz at the store in fall of 2001…it spoked to me. I introduced my daughter into Bratz. I started collecting them in every lines til 2007 because it becomes too full and I had no more room for it since I was in boxed collector. So I rediscovered Bratz all over again in 2021..seeing other collectors how they displayed their doll collection out of these boxes. So I decided to unboxed all my Bratz dolls…rediscovered my nostalgia with them. Then I decided to start collecting vintage Barbies to remind of my childhood. Then I have completed collection of Barbies the Movie dolls and the cars, the games and magazines of them recently. I just am not crazy of these light plastic feel of them. But, my love for Bratz was so much stronger than Barbie’s because of their clothing designs still so much details in them. But with Barbies the Movie dolls, I begin to see that Mattel wasn’t lazy in their clothing outfits that it’s becoming better detailed on them, finally. Lol. I just begin to see the differences collection of Barbies and play line Barbie’s made for two different groups. I rediscovered my collection on reproductions of vintage Barbie’s…that I am now aiming for. But having the original vintage Barbie’s is very cool I own few of them in my collection also, but they are too pricey. Same with Bratz that are becoming vintage right now, too. So I still love them both. Sorry for long rant, I still love them both no matter what. Bratz still are my number one then Barbies are number two in play line but honestly those silkstone Barbies start taking over…love those heavy feel of them with vintage designs back in 60’s and 70’s in my collection right now, because I remember how it started my love of Barbies growing up. Everyone have their own nostalgia of their preferences of their dolls while they were growing up.
Lilly Martinez designed My Scene aka Bratz and Brayan just stole that idea, change it up a bit aswell as made a fictional story about how he came up with the concept and sold it to MGA. After that because of the lawsuit he pretty much vanished and came back out of nowhere in late 2019... talk about a shady guy
Uh no they weren't. Bratz was inclusive from the very start. Barbie wasn't inclusive and when they were they still weren't because alot of the first Black Barbies still had white women features and hair! They didn't start introducing different races, hair textures or ethnic features until YEARS later! I see you keep commenting but you are loud and wrong. Lol. Bratz is very iconic as well as Barbie. Mattel needs companies like MGA because they keep Mattel in check. The truth is Mattel gets incredibly LAZY! Before the Barbie movie the Barbie brand was going downhill. The Barbie movie has saved Barbie because she was being beat by competitors greatly! They were not putting same the effort MGA was putting into their dolls. Yes, Barbie is an icon but so are other dolls such as Bratz. Also let's not forget when Mattel clearly tried to copy Bratz with their My Scene dolls. 😂 Let's also not forget how shady they were towards the creator of Bratz who used to work for Mattel. That's why they lost that lawsuit and had to recall those My Scene dolls! Giiiiirl please don't ever try to come for Bratz! Like, EVER! They are just as iconic as Barbie! FOH!
@@moonlightj0y As a Barbie fan, I have to agree with you. The Barbie brand first started marketing its main blue-eyed blonde character as well as other white characters and it wasn't until the S.I.S. (So In Style) dolls and the 2016 Fashionista dolls that Barbie started making Black Barbie dolls with actual Afrocentric features and not the features of a white doll. Bratz wasn't my favorite fashion doll line and although I did own a couple of those dolls growing up (because I did own a lot of Barbies), one thing I will never take away from them is their diversity because they didn't just market the blue-eyed blonde Cloe, but they marketed a Black girl, an Asian girl and even a Hispanic girl. Barbie has been more inclusive over the past seven years and has gotten better with promoting diversity because Mattel realized that not every little girl that plays with their best-selling doll line is white with blue eyes and blonde hair.
@@niabelizaire3596Very well said. I collect both Barbie and Bratz, as a Barbie lover myself I always state facts regardless. And the truth is Bratz have always been inclusive. They made a Falicia doll in 05 and she was the doll with the darkest complexion, which was such a huge deal back then. Mattel started stepping up their game when they realized how important it is to have diversity in dolls. My favorite Barbies are the late 90s-2010s barbies, because it was the years Mattel seemed to put the most effort in their doll line. I do appreciate Mattel's openness to making more inclusive dolls now because they were lacking. MGA kind of started paving the way of doll inclusiveness.
@@charlottepoppy275barbie started in the 1950s when the majority of the population in America was white. The consensus in the USA was white at 90%, so of course the brand would have marketed towards that population. So comparing Bratz diverse release compared to Barbie is silly as there is a huge time gap between the two, and racial relations were different in 2001 compared to 1959. Last but not least, Christie had her own face mold since the 1960s
Say what you want Bratz message was not it, they always were super competitive with one another in the series, They always made fun of girly girls and all in all were all stereotypes of what a white/hispanic/black or Asian girl is. If you compare them to Barbie we all know who the real winner is. Barbie is about Girl Power aswell as being true to yourself wheres Bratz on other hand are not , their whole existence and marketing was always surrounded by some sort of shade or drama....
The Bratz girls are so mean to the Tweevils in that Truth or Dare episode, and they’re not really inclusive, yes the dolls have cool fashion and skin tones/race, but the same face sculpt all over, while Barbie have different skin tones and different face scupts, as well as body diversity
Not to mention the "Example" pictures of Bratz dolls that you showed at 13:48 are all custom/Repainted or restyled OR Photoshopped dolls! The dolls were not sold like this ever!!! Please credit the original artists!!!!! Thank YOU
I have to completely disagree Brats may have given Barbie a run for their money but when it comes down to it, Barbie has close to 50 years on them when it comes to creating a fashion dolls and to be honest I never really liked Bratz. When they first came out I honestly expected them to flop for the same reason Jem and the holograms did because most of their clothes are not interchangeable with the average fashion doll body, and also I was never a fan of the disproportionate big head thing, I also didn't like the fact that their faces were all the same sculpt and unrealistic. in fact that's what I love most about Barbie is her realism, so many of her faces and her friends face Sculpts are very realistic and beautiful. To me I prefer that. I didn't much like my scene Barbie for the same reason.....
I love my scene so much ❣️❤️🩹❤️🔥♥️❤️ 💯 I like Bratz 🙀 Doll war 💥😅😂🤣 Barbie 2024 worst Bratz most powerfully doll in the world too much fashions styles hairstyles makeup.....than Barbie
I want-back the 19M I wasted, on your video. U could've saved everyone the time, and just admitted, within the first 12 seconds, you're a Bratz stan. Girl, Bye!
