They May Be Flat But They Got Style... Bae 

They seem nice as fashion dolls but not as much for play dolls. I think they would have been cool if they included some blank/plain stickers with markers that wash off with water to allow for the person playing with the dolls to create their own unique pieces as well, but the markers would bring the cost up too much probably.

I feel like magnetic or snap on clothes would be better for replayability than stickers because stickers aren't sticky forever Personally I don't really get why I'd get these over a styling book. Because styling picture books with stickers or magnets are just 2d and I kinda don't like the whole 2.5 d thing these have

I love these. Honestly they are an upscale version of the paper dolls I adored as a kid.

I think these dolls are a great idea! Unfortunately they retail for £25 ($30 USD) here in the UK, which is ridiculous for a plastic equivalent of a paper dress up doll.

I think it's a unique idea for maybe $10 but not $20...which is what they are priced at here in the States. Thanks for the video, Jen!

These dolls remind me of the magnet dolls I had on the fridge as a kid haha

I feel like these dolls would work way better if they used non-permanent vinyl, so you could remove the clothing and put it back on the hanger. For me, these needs to be dolls that you can style over and over again, since they don't have a lot of playing ability otherwise. When I was younger, I used to have a magnetic Barbie (that was flat) with a variety of magnetic cloths. And I do understand that putting magnets in the hands of younger children is problematic, but it was still a lot of fun for 7-8 years old me to style my barbie a different way every day. These dolls are a bit of a let-down in comparison.

I wonder if they'll sale separate garment hanger packs with new outfits, so that kids can get more clothes without having to get another doll? I'd like to see the clothes be magnetized instead of stickers for extended durability, too.

I like the idea and how they look but to make these really last and have kids enjoy them - I think the clothes should've been a magnet

Jen, black and silver hair isn't bad, lots of people have black and silver hair and no one should feel bad just because of a hair color. You are beautiful even if you aren't feeling it today!

I felt you so much when you criticized the lack of a male doll. I really wish doll lines would focus on those from time to time. Shadow High FINALLY gave us a guy with long hair at least but my little Monster High obsessed heart wants dolls of all the boys that feature on the new show, especially Manny Taur.

love the fashion and the dolls are so pretty but i feel stickers could be ruined so fast. Maybe if it was all cardboard cutouts or something with magnets

These dolls look really interesting (even if they remind me a little of that scene from who framed roger rabbit). Regarding the posability, I once made paper dolls like these and used split pins at the joints that allowed them make some poses. I imagine they could have done something similar (at least with the elbows and wrists) to give them some more playability. I also wonder why the heads couldn’t move the way a normal dolls can, because they have a 3d head already. Even if they couldn’t have the full neck peg, they could have just had ball like the lol dolls surely.

I'll be honest ... Id watch you read the phone book. I'm so envious that you're cute and can be on camera. My husband encouraged me to do more with my channel but id never ever be on camera. Not the way i look. I'm hope you enjoy doing these videos. It's nice to see someone who doesn't have an insane upload schedule.

I find these a little creepy but at least those parents who complain about rainbow high, lol, and other girls dolls being "anatomically correct" can't do so with these because they are flat, I can also see the sticker clothes being found on things that are NOT the dolls, because stickers

Imagine 5 people creating outfits made of paper for these dolls in a project runway like competition ❤ love it

I grew up with paperdolls as well as Barbies and other dolls and would often play with them together. There is a lot of play possible with the 2d style doll. I think if they had gone for more of a traditional paper doll with the hair as well and left off the fuzzy stickers it might be a little better, because they would have more style options on hair as well as being able to mix and match with the friend dolls too.

Upgraded paper dolls. Cool. Something tells me the price isnt going to be paper doll prices. Very cute though ❤

The fashions are nice and the concept is creative but personally as an adult doll collector they don't appeal to me and I'm not sure if kids would prefer this over a regular doll tbh , I might be wrong though.

Just watching the intro made me realize how much I missed watching your content 😭 good to be back ♥️

I had "Flatsy Dolls" in the 1970's. Bendable rubber with wire inside so they were posable. Easy to make clothes for since they were flat.

this reminds me of a toy i used to have, except that the clothes were magnets instead of stickers, which honestly seems like a much easier and longterm toy, since stickers lose their stickiness

They sure weren't messing around when it came to branding. They stamped "Bae" on basically every single thing they could lol it's a bit much.

So it's a new expensive version of Paper dolls from the old days? Paper dolls are figures cut out of paper or thin card, with separate clothes, also made of paper, that are usually held onto the dolls by paper folding tabs. They may be a figure of a person, animal or inanimate object. Paper dolls have been inexpensive children's toys for almost two hundred years.

Very cute concept for a doll. And totally giving me paper doll nostalgia. On the fence about the whole sticker clothing thing since obviously the sticky will wear off after a while with continued play and from oils from hands and whatnot. Think a cling method instead of a sticker method would have been better for something like this but maybe not. Might get 1 doll just for ha-ha's to see if I like it. But don't see myself getting the whole set even though they are cute. As always love your review! 😁

very cute. I do wonder about how the sticker outfits would hold up to use though.

all of their clothes are super cool mix and matching seems so fun… (*´﹃｀*) and I don't mind the hair because it would give me corage to do more hairstyles! i just wanted more different makeups for the personality of each girl AND the stickers afraid me if they started to not work anymore I would be saaaad

such a strange concept but i kind of love it. i always wished my paper dolls had hair i could play with. maybe i should get myself the Avril inspired one to heal my inner child lol

I don’t like that the backs are a solid color. I don’t like how they are stickers and not magnetics or snap on for multiple uses over years of play. I do like that the design of the stickers are very detailed and unique. I do like the faces they are very cute. It would be cool if they had stickers to give them custom make up too. If they were cheaper it would be a fun party activity. Also i feel like it would be cool if they came with a background set for display with stickers to decorate there display. It feels very novelty. Thank you so much for your review.

kid me would love these but also feel the pain of seeing the stickers getting dirty and losing their stickiness over time

these are kinda cool! i like the idea as it reminds me of paper dolls but ALSO the magnetic fridge dress up dolls from the 90s the fact they gave the a coloured back instead of just skin colour with underwear is weird to me the sticker fashion is dumb- it should have been magnetic.. just kinda makes them seem scammy if they use stickers they shouldve used more felted, holographic, textured and fur stickers especially considering theyre flat and unarticulated which is a great way to cut costs as it is they needed a few more weeks on the product development stage i think the sewn in doll hair- dont you just grab one side and open it? its sewn in a way that it just unravels from one side

I really really like the idea but i would prefer velcro over stickers but maybe wouldnt look cute. I know theres some fashion kid out there perfect for this doll

I mean. I guess these are Cool, if you’re not blind. I don’t think this is as accessible as we would like it to be. They should make one with some tactile stickers so we can feel them. Is it weird that I just want to get this doll and cover her in self adhesive gem stickers? I feel like my mom wouldn’t enjoy sitting there for hours, while I made her describe every single sticker so that I could pick the perfect outfit.

I love the crimped hair, I think it looks cute! And it looks like braids if you squint

These dolls are perfect for pre school age kids.

I wish instead of the sticker thing it was more of like magnetic thing because the design is cool I like the looks, but ultimately stickers are going to stop working and stop being sticky. I really liked the look and the designs though. The main reason dolls like barbie or ever after high or monster high or the color ones are so popular is because they arent only the doll its also the collect and reusuability and posability. Like I think its cool but really they should have done magnetic looks over stickers

Thanks Jen, I appreciate your take, on these dolls. It was great that you received them for a review. Way to go, you should be very proud, of that accomplishment. Thank you for the laughs, as always, you have a wonderful, warm, and loving personality.🤗

They are basically plastic paper dolls.

Ahh. I thought these were magnetic. Sticker outfits just get wrecked so easily. Tip fpr the hanher though. Push some air dry clay into the base so when it dries will weight it down so less likely to tumble.

the 3D heads on a 2D body do nothing for me and i would like them better if the heads were flat i really love paper dolls and have a good sized collection, including a few 'magic' paper dolls which use static cling to hold the clothes on - i wonder how long these stickers will last until their magic is gone?

Yeah personally these definitely aren’t my cup of tea, they are definitely not good for play if you had given me this as I child I would play with it for a good five minutes before getting bored and going back to my Barbie’s monster highs and lps. These seem just like a sort of cash grab a king a super cheap to make doll and selling them for thirty bucks. They have no possibility and you can’t really dress them in other dolls clothes so your options are super limited. These just feel like some super cheap to make cash grab, they want to make a toy of the year by encouraging social media usage and being “hip”. I had more fun with my paper Barbie’s then I ever would have had with these

The designs are really nice but I’m not feeling the gimmick, I don’t see them lasting and ending up being thrown out by parents or thrift stores when they get them :/ I would rebody the head onto a real body.

In the end of the 60s arly 70s there where flat Dolls with even a flat Head called Flatsy. They had 2 Types. Adult and Kids. And they where flexible and had Fabric Fashions.

I like the concept but wonder about the play experience. Really cute dolls though. Glad you are back, Jen.❤

I could definitely see these being popular for that age when pretend play gets less interesting and they might enjoy these as a colorful and creative way of expressing personal styles

These are great because you can draw and design clothes for them and just tape em on. I used to love making my own paper dolls, making them clothes and playing with them. Dolls were almost never fully articulated until monster high. And now you usually have to buy an entire new doll if you want different outfits so making your own out of paper is a great option for kids.

I kinda feel like the outfits should've been magnetic... Might've made for more longevity for the outfits over stickers. But that's just me.

I love the look you give Miss. Harper. I think my 14 year old would like this vs. my 3 year old

Am I the only one thinking that it looks like you took a Brats doll and used a hot iron on the body? Now I can't help thinking it'd be fun to make a Saw-like horror scene of them. lol But not going to pay that much to do that. 😂

honestly as cute as they are and as unique a concept this is, i cant see these dolls being much of anything in the future. they havent arrived in my country just yet and i dont know if they ever will, but the pricing for them some other commenters are talking about seems like way too much for what they are. i cant see kids wanting these over other doll lines out there and the price difference doesnt seem like its enough to make parents buy them over the dolls their kids want and they arent unique enough in their looks for collectors to really care about. theyre fun, but realistically, they probably wont last long. we'll be lucky to see a wave 2 of these but i dont think they'll get much more than that.

its not a bad idea but i think the clothes being flat magnets that stick to the base instead of stickers would be better. the sticker idea just doesn't seem very long lasting. like mi guarantee kids are gonna get them torn or dirty or folded in on themselves etc etc etc... I'm not confident it would hold up for much long term play value

I think that they should of not put the skin colours on the actual sticker maybe not put fashion holes that way all the outfits would be useable on all the different dolls

Im not sure if kids like dolls that are flat and ugly but as an adult I appreciate the original idea. If you could paste your own drawn designs on them maybe it would appeal to slightly older kids that enjoy drawing clothes but as a play thing not so sure 😂

I use cat/pet claw scissors from the Dollar Tree for cutting the jibbers - they grab ahold of the tiny things. I admit, the first time I saw these, I just thought they were weird and couldn't understand why anyone would like them, but now I think they're kind of great. Colorforms were my favorite "paper doll" as a kid, because the clothes did not fall off. Lining them up to the body is very good for developing dexterity. When it comes to normal 3d dolls, hair play is very important, and to this day (I'm 54), brushing doll hair is as soothing as petting an animal, so it's great they have real hair. Dressing dolls can be tricky for little hands - they don't always have the patience to wiggle stuff on - so this gives quicker satisfaction. I love the way they store the stickers - in Colorforms, they had to stick directly on their original layout, and since that was cut in, eventually the plastic peeled up off the plastic. My concern is the durability of the stickers - that they will not tear or warp and will stay sticky. People complaining about the price: I mean, $30 is way too much for a paper doll, but this is a doll playset, with 5 curated outfits with an average of 7 items each, along with a handful of accessories, and "furniture" (clothes hanger, stand). Fashionistas start out at $10USD, come with shoes, dress, and maybe one accessory. I think these would be great for travel and would provide hours of creative play styling the dolls. How much is a movie date with a kid and it only lasts 2 hours tops? This seems like just as good an investment.

That is weird. What looked like a regular doll in the front is actually 2 dimensional.

As much as I like the fashion the quality is not there for me I wish the sticker were magnets maybe encased in resin I fell like the stickers wouldn't last a week with a child

Kiki and Harper have the most style and interesting look about them, I think. But overall I'm unsure of how I feel about these dolls because you can't...do much other than style them. I hope at some point they consider making a special addition that's actual dolls or something. Because you know, be fun to pretend they're going to the mentioned events.

i feel like magnets would be way better than stickers

Kid me would probably like it but get tired of it within like 5 minutes

Hm I'm not feeling them, they're ok but I'll pass on them

So true sowen in doll hair, is a pain to get free! Really hate when they do that

They seem kinda nice but I don’t like the sticker aspect

Reminds me of paper dolls, I used to play w my grandma’s paper dolls when I was a kid, aswell as played a lot of dress up games on game sites back in the day, so this just feels like a modern touch of it

Ohhh it’s an elevated paper doll that you can stand up and play with the hair, as opposed to a downgraded action figure. My 8 year old niece would absolutely LOVE this because she struggles with tiny fashion doll clothes. 💖💖💖 these are pretty cool.

I think they remind me of Flatsy. I've only seen Flatsy in book or on websites so I don't know if these two types do compare. I wonder if this doll(s) is better compared with paper dolls? The concepts seem to be almost the same. especially in reguards to the clothing. The doll body is the same too, except it is plastic instead of paper/card stock.

I have a feeling this will be on Ollie’s shelves early next year.

Dude why stickers??? Magnets would be perfect!

Yep....."paper Dolls"....they were around in the 70's, when I was a little girl. I loved them! These are cute ....I think that my great nieces might like them..... they're 5 and 8 and 10.....🤗👍🏻

So... every doll has a predominantly blue, purple and pink outfit palettes? They could have made green, yellow, red, orange, white, etc. But all these other colours are, at most, minimally present, and you would be really pressed to make an outfit or two without blue, purple or pink, especially if you ony have one doll. Quite disappointing. Also, some of these clothing pieces seem a bit too similar between the dolls. I don't see a strongly individual style for any of them, maybe Kiki. I think, that the person who came up with the styles and colours, didn't do a good enough job. My other complaint would be the fact, that these are stickers. It would be much better if they were those soft magnetic sheets. Much easier to put on and off, stackable, and much more sturdy. Some of the clothing pieces have very tiny details, sharp corners, those will get torn/crumpled/warped the moment a child touches them. No matter how careful a kid is, even a 10 year old is likely to accidentally damage it, which is just a big bag of upset. Not to mention, that a sticker isn't sticky for long (especially in the hands of a child), and will pick up dirt super easy. A soft magnetic sheet doesn't have this problem. Their faces look a bit too similar. Like, they aren't identical if you look closely, but still. Something I really don't dig, is how multiple of their accessories are the same, just in a different colour. Not even a different pattern or anything, just a solid piece of colored plastic. If you make the same exact mold in three different colours, it's not three different accessories, it's the same thing in different colours. The representation.....it just feels like they haven't even tried. Oh, let's make their skin a gradient from pale to tanned, great! Not. A mixed family of one white and one black parent has children with a wider range of skin colour. Where is the darker complexion? Where is the east asian and indian representation? No ginger hair again? Freckles? And let's not even mention the fact, that there isn't even 1 token boy. Like, what even. Good idea, nice artwork, terrible execution.

I love these sooo much and especially that these are the first dolls I see that are SO TRENDY. As a teenager these are exactly outfits that are popular and trendy right now just with more colorful colors. And basically I am soooo happy that these are finally real everyday fashion icons

I don’t think i like their clothing being stickers. I feel like they would lose stickiness over time. Tbh i think making them magnetic would work better.

To tell the truth I hated it haha. I've had dolls to build with stickers and in the end they always end up losing the glue, or full of fur, hair and dust. Furthermore, many of the shoes and clothes are similar between the girls, which shows a lack of originality, as well as the accessories, they all have the same bracelets just in different colors. If they were much cheaper than normal dolls I would understand. But I bet the difference is very small. I think I judge a little because I've always loved dolls for the construction of their clothes or for any extra details they may have, and in that way it's difficult to appreciate details. Anyway, I know I'm not the target audience, but if I were a child I don't know if I would like it too, it's very difficult to put a sticker on a page that you've taken off and try to put back on, in the end it's a mess and I would feel it (and maybe get beaten for) """ruining the toy""" so quickly. Jen is adorable, but it's definitely not for me. Furthermore, I thought that Harper has a style that is even too similar to Clowdeen Wolf, I think it's a bit annoying as they always associate the character who has dark complex skin with street wear.... I think sometimes it could be different. Anyway, just my opinion

I thought it’d be more like flatsy dolls which are flat but posable with fabric clothes

Kinda love everything except their faces, why make it 3d???? Coulda made their faces similar to their bellybutton and knees- well anyway! Could use long tabs on the sides like we did with paper dolls and create your own outfits along with plenty of other fun ideas to make them very versatile to play with. Thought I'd hate them but actually pretty cute

Personally I’d prefer a completely flat doll, the head is freaky on that “body” which feels vaguely misogynistic

I grew up with paper dolls and online dress-up dolls so these are neat, but I personally dislike the idea of using stickers over something like magnets. Feel like over time with kids playing with them they’ll just end up not sticking and collect hair/dust.

These remind me of the paper/card dolls I used to have. The idea was the clothes had little tabs on them you put the clothes on the doll then fold thhe tab over to keep it secure.

that’s exactly what I was thinking. I was wondering why not just go completely flat and still put some hair on the flattened doll. in my eyes in presents very negative body image sort of saying that the only thing that should stand out about is your face and if they’re going to be completely flat why not do multiple different body sizes i.e. plus size size 0 regular size ones without a leg or with prosthetics etc, it will be so easy to do in a flat medium

I think it's interesting, that they made a toy, that's based on paper dolls, you can make. Where you can change the dolls outfit.

i feel as though theyre very nostalgic to the cardboard magnetic dolls back then and those sticker dolls you could get from the vending machine. but like those vending machine sticker dolls, they dont last. they shouldve done the wood/cardboard style

Cross between a flatsy doll and a paper doll. Weird they made them one sided... I'll stick with my flatsy and paper dolls.

A lot of toy lines coming out with generic names instead of names that describe their gimmick. The trademark world must be oversaturated

There is like paper dolls, thats cute for fashion dolls or someone who just like to dress up and never play.

17:10 Harpers Body hahaha Feels like a Jennifer’s body reference 😅

Seems cheap...doll companies are not even trying, any more.

Love the video, as always. Just wanted to mention though that caucasian is an obsolete racial classification of humans based on a theory of biological race that has now been disproven. It was coined in the late 18th century by the Göttingen school of history, and they divided humanity into three major race categories: caucasoid, negroid and mongoloid. Both mongoloid and negroid are words that have fallen out of fashion in general society, but caucasoid or caucasian is a term that is still used to describe white people, despite referring to a disproven and generally racist theory of human race classification.

Male dolls are not bought up as much are female dolls are, and after all... the companies all care about is just about profit.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I had tiny sticker dolls as a child, this brings back SO MANY MEMORIES

Hmm… Fashion dolls keep getting skinnier and skinnier… Tsk, tsk. 🤔

I wish they came in normal doll forms because I love their outfits so much but I hate how they are flat like that

Hi Jen will you be reviewing monster high dolls anytime? 💚

Cute dolls. They are an updated version of paper dolls.

do wonder if u can make ur own clothings for them??

Bae!? This branding feels like a 40yo heard their teen daughter use that word and thought it was some hip new dippidy fresh word meaning "bestie" or something... But many know better.

They just kinda updated paper dolls

The AMOUNT of outfits you get ❤

The dolls said ✨✨skinny legend✨✨

To me its kinda boring besides the hair.

Um...as flat as grandma's pancakes? Am i missing something? 🤐

hope it's back was not different color but same color what skin tone they had so that it was not awkward if you want to restyled the hair in different angle because i guess why most of them is long hair to cover up the back area different on their skin tone
