I still remember some words used in The Mommy and Gracie Show! Here are some Mommy and Gracie terminology I remember: Kajinkers: Plastic tags that hold a doll or figure into its place in the box SO PROFESH: Whenever something unintentional happens due to clumsiness or technical error Juzzsh: Washing and conditioning a doll's hair Swoopy-doo: A wave-shaped hairstyle, especially for Monster High and Ever After High dolls of male characters MOLDED ON PANTS: Painted on pants and leggings on a doll, especially prominent in later Monster High and Ever After High dolls (notably Dragon Games Apple White) Bumpit: Doll hairs with this particular style, which might remind some viewers of Snooki (notably Lizzie Hearts) CHI-KA!!!!: Viperine Gorgon from Monster High (based on Gracie's (now Kaiden) reaction when seeing the Frights, Camera, Action! Viperine doll for the first time) Poopy O'Hair: Poppy O'Hair from Ever After High, based on a misspelling found online Harambe: Winston from Overwatch (from the Overwatch Funko Pop unboxing and review video, based on a rather popular nickname for Winston the gorilla by people who play the game) Boot cheeks: Butt cheeks, from the Ever After High Mirror Beach doll review Mal and Jesus: Two small figures often seen on the shelf in past reviews (one of them is apparently a figure of Jesus Christ obtained from a viewer) Daughter of Foxy the Pirate: Vandala Doubloons from Monster High (since she was a ghost pirate, and young Kaiden compared her to Foxy from Five Nights at Freddy's) Meow-Meow-Laura: Draculaura (because the late Spats apparently loved her) Bonnie's Left Leg: Twyla from Monster High (specifically, from the Haunted - Getting Ghostly line, another FNAF reference Kaiden made, and I still remember Mommy saying, "No, don't Google it! Some kids are afraid of Five Nights at Freddy's")
The slightly oily feeling is partially due to the hair fiber that they're using. Draculaura has Saran hair, which I'm really happy about because it's much softer than the polypropylene hair that Clawdine and Cleo have.
I’ve heard from a few people now that Cleo has that kind of hair unfortunately, but I must say that my own Cleo has extremely silky hair and I’m pretty impressed with it. Clawdeen unfortunately has some pretty dry hair though
Oh yes, absolutely relate to that part about not buying other things because dolls. I'll look at the price tag of something and think "But I could buy so many dolls for that price!" and pass. Gets me in trouble sometimes. I had to really push myself to buy a much, much needed winter coat. I wanted to buy more Monster High dolls instead, but it's getting cold!
Shes sOO adorable, I love her platform black boots. I love that she’s short, and curvy this time around. I’ve always seen Drac in myself, but now that I physically see myself in her, Im crazy for her. can’t wait to see her in stores in my area eventually!
Melissa, I just wanted to thank you. I grew up watching you and Kayden, and your channel was a bright spot in the stress I was going through. I remember listening to you talk about MS, and it was the first time I had ever heard of the disease. I'm now going through the process of being diagnosed with it, and thanks to your videos and the information you've shared, I'm not as scared as I probably would have been otherwise. I'm so glad I watched your channel like I did and learned what I had because now I don't feel like I'm going into this with no clue about anything. I don't know if any of this really made sense since I'm not the best at putting together words anymore, but I just wanted to express my gratitude. I hope you are doing well and that through everything going on with your mom you are taking the time to take care of yourself. ❤
Sending you hugs. So sorry you might have MS, but the treatment available nowadays can stop the disease in its tracks. It sucks but I can still have a beautiful life. Hugs 💕💕💕
I love the Gore-ganizer! I ordered it a couple of weeks ago from my Walmart for $37.94! I got it because I wanted to mix and match the fashions. I put the hair clips on the back of her dress to give her bat wings. I love keeping Drac dolls and accessories in the Gore-ganizer. This set is so cool!
I’m really loving G3. When I was a kid I never had Monster High dolls even though I was in the age range to play with them - they weren’t super accessible to me. So seeing these is awesome! They’re so cute, and diverse. Makes me happy.
Good grief did you say “watch this channel for a decade” I really grew up with you and Kaiden. I remember my sister and I watching all the mh and EAH reviews everyday after school. I believe I am about the same age as Kaiden (if not the same age) so it’s crazy to think that I was in elementary school then watched on and off in high school and now I’m back full time as an “adult”. Sometimes we booth quote all the time is “pull up your socks” from the eah (I wanna say hat tastic tea party collection).
I am just getting into the new G3 dolls and this set is PERFECT! I love the draculora that comes with the set and not to mention the organizer?!? As a fashion design student who has to carry several sewing and pattern making supplies to class this is definitely something I want!!
so cool to still see you doing reviews!! grew up watching you and your son when i was elementary school age and it's nice to know there's something to come back to in my college years! hope you're all doing well!
I love this set! It's so cute and makes a great gift. And I agree that it's really nice that they've brought the whole coffin bed/organizer idea with a new design, a nice callback. I'm really excited for what we've gotten so far from G3, and for what's yet to come! Thx for another great video! 🤗❤
I’m so glad Monster High is back! I remember the first time I saw G1 in Toysrus (I still miss that store so much 😢), not previously knowing anything about them. I thought they were the coolest thing and we got the Cleo and Deuce 2 pack for my husband’s little cousin. Then a few years later when my oldest was little we started buying them for her (and me 😁). My little one has always played with her sister’s dolls but Monster High was starting to wind down by the time she came along. So she’s excited that there are new Monster High dolls for her now. And my older is still into them as well. We still say kajinkers thanks to you and Kaiden 😆💖
I watched the movie and it was all the feels! I feel more relatable to Frankie cause I have a replacement shoulder joint. Monster High being back is so exciting!! Tackle box also good for sewing box, art things. Love that Draculura is practicing witchy things. So I can relate there too.
I have only two Monster High dolls, Frankie from G1 and now gorganizer Draculaura. I simply adore her! Her height, body type, bangs, and oh-so-cute almost crossed eyes. Love, love, love!
Crazy I just got ahold or her today and you release this haha. I absolutely adore Draculara's body type in G3, as someone who is roughly 5'3" and pear-shaped. This set is so cute, and I just couldn't turn down getting it--even though I just recently bought the singular Draculara doll. 🤭
I’m really new to Monster High and learning the hard way that you need to grab things right away. I’m usually a Barbie collector and I can usually wait and think about the dolls I want to get.
I usually use all my money for new dolls but... I decided I need a new wardrobe so this month I did that. It makes me happy and feel more my authentic self to get out of the elementary school wardrobe I've worn for several years. But I'm going back to spending my funds mostly on dolls soon.
I just ordered this off mercari I am so excited to get it since it'll be my first monster high doll since I never got one as a child lol Bought the other gen 3 draculaura thats out there right now as well!
I really can’t wait for them to come out 😀. I’m on the verge of buying one from the USA but we will see. I love the new body types and this caboodle looks fantastic as a gift so many uses enjoy. And I hope your mum is doing well.
I just got my gore-ganizer in the mail, I saw it in walmart a couple days after I ordered online, I love it so much, its big enough for my makeup so I plan to take the organizer with me for a halloween party im goin to
That mug is soo cute. I do not collect dolls (I watch your videos because of you), but I do collect 1/6 action figures - mainly selected Hot Toys. At the moment, I have far less of them, because they are very expensive. However, I also learnt to not care about current fashions, and I wear my clothes as well until they fall apart, same with shoes (although here, I cannot go as far, as I need them to be supportive - orthopedic soles). If I find a nice shirt with certain themes - and it fits me - I get it. These can be pricey, because you know, Star Wars.
Oh lordy, its only a matter of time before Monster High comes for my wallet. I been trying not to fall down the Monster High rabbit hole but I was looking through the releases.... and I think my wallet maybe in danger.
I do choose to buy dolls over other things. You forgot about Abbey & Spectra's bed. Abbey's has always been my favorite. I legitimately squealed when I opened this Draculaura. She is so precious. As a pale, curvy, short person I resonate with Draculaura so much more. Does G3 Draculaura fit in the G1 bed?
Oh Lord, so Draculaura and her GoreGanizer were the first MH content I ever bought. When I was younger, many many many years ago, I begged my mother for one of those cool Caboodles. She said no, they were too expensive, but she bought me a tackle box instead, which I was always embarrassed about. So when I saw this doll after binging all MH shows/movies I came across, I HAD to get her. I'm 43 and finally have my first *Caboodle* TY so much Melissa for making me feel less ashamed of my mom's unconventional purchase!
I found her at Walmart and I had to pick her up. She is SO CUTE!! Will pretty much won't use anything but the doll, the coffin box, and the brush. But hey! Still worth it for the doll 100%
As an original collector, my loves were 1Frankie 2 Goulia 3 Draculaura... G3, I'll probably only get the Draculauras. Lagoona does look super cute in G3. I think for me, G3 isn't as edgy, but I get they're meant for kids 😂... 💖
I think so far the Goreganizer Draculaura is my favorite. She's the one I have next to me at my desk. Not sure what it is about her exactly, I just love her so much.
I have been trying so hard to buy this ghoul but it doesn't seem that stores in the middle of America are getting any product, I wonder if we are getting the European treatment 😮💨🤔 I am the same though! I always have money for dolls, other things not so much. I agree with the pear shaped thing too, I haven't felt more represented then I do now. Being 5 feet tall, goth and curvy drac really makes me feel more comfy in my skin.
I was lucky enough to find one of those at walmart and while I love the doll; the latch on the goregonizer is kind of shallow so I have to be careful how I pick it up or it'll just fly open and make a mess. I don't have the right kind of hair for the clips either. They'd look cute as a headband though.
I am the same way with doll nudity. I always feel guilty when I undress my dolls even to wash their hair. I always have at least one RH T-Shirt set aside for washing doll hair. And for my comfort dolls specially, who are like my children at times, I always change their clothes under my covers so that none of my other dolls can see them naked and so that they have privacy when I am changing their clothes, checking for staining, or checking their articulation.
I’m still upset about what they did to Ghoulia in the movie, and her doll soooo disappointed. Hope the cartoon redeems her character. I am for sure getting this kit! Need the gorgnizor 🦇💖
I love Draculaura, she's my favorite MH doll and the G3 one is cute; however I still prefer G1 and some of the others. I do love this set and hope to get it at some point. Frankie is my second favorite and I have a few of them. Such fun when we can get new dolls and find inventive ways to play with them :) Take care Sweetie
I may or may not have just spent way too much of my dad’s money on cheap monster high jewellery at spirit Halloween the other day… Edit: I’m more of a round hourglass shape (wide shoulders and large bust, very thin waist and huuuge hips and butt) and I’m only 5’1 which makes it really awkward that I’m a trans guy 😅
