Top 10 Discontinued Fashion Doll Lines You Forgot Existed 

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 🥰

I personally feel like people sexualize dolls too much what's wrong with a little style.

I feel like Mattel always kills any doll who even gets a tad bit close to barbies crown

Maybe parents should stop sexualizing their kid's dolls.

I wish novistars would continue again, their designs are so unique and cute. They had so much potentional.

Doll line: *Breathes* Barbie: get out

Barbie and Bratz having an argument Liv : our time has come

Doll line: hi- barbie: are you challenging me??

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 $$$ 😭

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...

Alternate tittle: 10 times Mattel or MGA felt threatened and stole styles to make them shut down

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.

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

Anyone remember the Bratzillas line? I think it was one of MGA's attempts at competition with Monster High

One thing I've learned with this video. Barbie doesn't know how to let other dolls exist lol

"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.

I was today years old when I realized "Your Thing" magazine was them shading MyScene

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 🤔

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 😍

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)

The more sultry My Scene dolls are probably my favorite dolls. Like ever. I love their faces!

My scene was my childhood I hope they reboot it

3:13 wow.... i can't believe Mattel tried again what they did with "Growing Skipper" *30 years before!* :o

O M G i have had a moxie girls doll this hole time, i thought it was just a really screwed up Yasmin :/

The way you pronounced the Moxie Teenz’s names sent me😂

I had mostly myscene dolls. Now everyone looks like them, haha

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.

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

I CANT WITH THE BIANCA DEL RIO AS JUDGE JUDYYY OMGG

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.

The way Arizona was pronounced, couldn't help but laugh 😂

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?

One thing we can all agree one though. Novi starz and myscene were STUNNING.

Half of my childhood in one video this hit me so hard

Can you PLEASE talk about the animal-humanoid dolls that never came out?? (Wild childs) I'M DYING TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM

I Want To Know More About Wild Child Dolls

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.

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 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 🤡🤡

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.

The doll brands I remember from this list are: MyScene, NoviStars, Liv, Moxie Girls and LaDeeDa.

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!

Gaga was supposed to have a bratz doll but it was canceled cause she wanted the head to be removable(shes such a queen)

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 :)

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

I’m not really a fan of lammily’s design. But I really like the idea of an educational fashion doll!

Okay but Lammily taking it to the next step with those period pads. Damnnnnn

The MyScene dolls in their later years were so gorgeous, I would definitely want Mattel to bring them back

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 😂

Novi Stars is literally so iconic like.....

This is such a well done video! Love how clearly you explain everything! So fun!!!

the clip of the moxie girls mermaid commercial gave me so much nostalgia mannn take me back to the good days

It’s because of Bratz and Myscene that I care so much about my group of friends, love fashion, going out and boys lol

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.

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.

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.

Varner studios also created Bleeding Edge Gothic dolls, also known as Begoths. They are my all time favorite doll line. Could be worth covering 💜

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

your stop motion skills are so good!

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.

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

myscene website was everything for me...i would come back from school to play every game every single day 😂 so many memories

omg i used to watch you when i was younger, this is so nostalgic lol

22:51 THANK YOU for unlocking a childhood memory that I forgot existed! 💖my heart just melted

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💖💖💖

Monster high and ever after high had so lines put on clearance😭

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

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

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

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!!

Do a vid about wild child dolls!! Honestly this vid is giving me major nostalgia!!💜

Great Video! Lots of great info on doll lines I adore!

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)

Once Upon A Zombie is a really underrated doll line, but I’m not sure if they were discontinued or what happens to them.

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

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 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.

I remember seeing my scene commercials! I feel like I really missed out on Novi Stars. This was my first time hearing about them and I love the designs 🖤

How dare you remind me of the MyScene website, I need itttt

The eyes on these dolls are giving me nightmare fuel bruh

It’s the ✨Areeezahna✨ instead of Arizona pronunciation for me 🙃

bro these vids are unlocking memories I forgot I had! I do vaguely remember being surprised that a doll had the same name as me, lol

The Pinkie Cooper line almost made me wish there was doll made based off of Isabella from Animal Crossing.

1:52 The most Y2K thing about this image is the Barbie and the Diamond Castle sidebar ad

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!

Thankyou for the great information. Some of the dolls I never heard of.

I really like your vids. I subscribed. LOL I love toys... especially fashion dolls and action figures.

“10 doll lines you forgot existed!” Me: **remembers all of them**

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)

Ooh first vid by u love the intro it’s fun !

💎🎥💎I appreciate your editing! Definitely on point! 💎🎞💎

Novi Stars are the most creative in this list, talk to the wall.

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 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.

Any typed of doll Iine: exist Mattel: who said you could do that
