The idea alone of the eating doll will haunt my mind. Really creepy somehow

[@Iroh12345]

Yeah, the Polly magnet thing was an issue with many of the sets. One of the sets I owned as a kid was recalled as well but I kept it anyway since I knew not to eat magnets lmao

[@bront9990]

I guess it's worth mentioning the fairly recent recalling of the Poppy troll doll that had a button in an inappropriate place that made Poppy make inappropriate noises. Not physically dangerous to kids but still very creepy.

[@kerisaltchannel3817]

I think it's for when she sits down

[@bront9990]

@@kerisaltchannel3817 Yes but the noises she makes are very inappropriate. I find it hard to believe that a huge company like that, would make a toy that does that accidently. If it was accidental they did not do thier product testing properly.

[@redmonsoon7214]

Haha yeah I saw a tinkerbelle one

[@Laura.Gregori]

As a kid I remember seeing the commercials of the first Barbie on the list everywhere. Never had her, but a year ago I bought a used Disney Store doll and she came dressed with the clothes of that Barbie 😁 Very handy, since I have many dolls but actually don't have too many fashions for them 😗

[@SaffronDallimore]

I had the Barbie and Tanner when I was little! Haha! I remember playing with that Barbie and dog. My parents always told me to be careful with the magnets, such as to not put them in my mouth or lose them etc. It actually was a fun toy, just a shame about the health risks side.

[@TheSaltyMits]

Me and my sister had TONS of those magnetic Polly Pockets as well as other Pollies that were rubbery and also had magnets, but this time in their feet so they could stick to playsets and things. I was like 5 when the recall happened and my mom contacted Mattel almost immediately. My mom returned all of the recalled Polly Pockets, and we ended up getting HUNDREDS of dollars to spend on other Mattel products. My mom took us to Toys R' Us and basically let us run wild and pick out whatever the heck we wanted. Hands-down one of my all-time favourite memories from my childhood.

[@BreanneCarlson84]

I had the rollerblade Barbie as a kid 🙂 I guess it’s a good thing the light up function barely worked but I still enjoyed her 🙂

[@samigee6156]

I had the Kira and I loved her! Like you said, the function barely worked so I was surprised to see the dolls were recalled. I found an old news article about it that said a kid had sprayed her doll's hair with a ton of hairspray before using the rollerblades and it caused a small fire.

[@M4n4_S4m4]

The first 2-in 1 Glamper had to be recalled because children’s fingers got stuck in the glamper, so they rereleased it to be much safer for kids

[@BeautyInsideABox]

Yes I remember that! Maybe I should make a follow up video! Thanks for watching

[@Nightman221k]

I remember wanting to try to buy bootlegs for fun but the idea of toxic chemicals in them is a huge detractor for me. The sky dancers toys are pretty horrible for the injury stories. The cabbage patch doll that munches was creepy too with the chewing the hair off kids.

[@yaoipervette392]

When I was kid, my dad showed me how you could burn paper with a magnifying glass and the sun. A Barbie that shoots sparks would have been the least of my mom’s worries.

[@tornadodee148]

LOLL🤣

[@laedollchick]

The only one I remember was a cabbage patch doll where kids’ hair was getting caught in the mouth since it was a doll that “chewed”

[@savannahellis8888]

I definitely had barbie & tanner, the polly pocket quick click, & my cousin had a sky dancer

[@livermont56]

OMG,it's Peaches and Cream Barbie,she was my favorite Barbie when I was a kid ❤️

[@patrickmhn]

I had a lot of the PollyPockets with the magnets, they fall out, but i wasn't stupid enough to eat them. :) It was more annoying searching them on the floor. My parents didn't bring them back. It was so much fun playing with them.

[@bratzscene3131]

I also had tons and Mattel made them over the course of several years, so I guess Joey was talking specifically about this set.

[@odileisawful]

I bought 8 fake dolls 12 years ago when I was on vacation. They are "Funkis" (copies of Bratz and My Scene, hybrid models). At first, they had no peculiar smell. But over the years a smell developed, I found that when I was near them or touched them, it gave me a headache. I kept them because I love them but I cannot display or use them, they are stored in individual bags, together in another bag, in a closet. Some time ago I took them out to take a picture of them and it once again gave me a headache and an unpleasant sensation, I needed to ventilate the room to breathe better.

[@Toywithme200]

For God's sakes, throw them out before you get serious health issues! No doll is worth destroying your health.

[@odileisawful]

@@Toywithme200 thank you :•) but i couldn't part with them :'•l ... i love every element in my collection so much... I think the ideal is to find an airtight transparent box to protect myself and to be able to observe them from time to time. The dolls are still in the closet. I don't know if I am "sensitive" or if a lot of people have this kind of feeling, it has also happened to me with some products that I have used, for example some cleaning products (blue gel for the toilets), or glue (Super glue) and even "hypoallergenic" wet wipes which were made to clean the hands ! (Sanytol). It causes an immediate headache sensation with a need for clean air.

[@natasapoke2004]

@@odileisawful maby ask your parents/siblings if they feal the same them u can't say mutch cus I'm usually around chemicals eg rezin-nailpolish-paint ext so idk

[@Baja_blaast]

Hey op could it be that theres some sort of chemical reaction happening? I know with a specific generation of pullip bodies ( gen 2 i believe) had this issue where the body parts were made of materials that had adverse chemical reactions when those specific body parts came into contact with each other, causing the plastic to begin melting. If theyre like copies/knockoff hybrids it couldve been that it was made with questionable materials and over the time it just deteriorated or theres some reaction happening causing the smell and side effects. If youve had to keep them sealed in order to still keep them it might be a gas or something idk,but id def check with others to see if they experience the same thing, if so they probably need to be sealed in a display if you still wanna keep them.

[@valkyriedarquese]

@@odileisawful I know they mean a lot to you but they are dangerous, disposing of them is the safest thing for yourself and others. Perhaps seeing a psychologist would be good as you mention you can't bear the thought of throwing them out despite the possible danger. Not to alarm you but this mentality can cause a lot of problems

[@Sallyxyz1]

3:50 I'd like to state as someone who grew up with 5 siblings, we 100% hurt each other on purpose with our sky dancers lmao

[@tommylee1501]

I had the rollerblade when I was a kid and I also got a boxed one last Xmas. The Rollerblades had the same thing a lighter does to spark.

[@coral_puff]

I have the Barbie and Tanner set, When I was little, my one cousin was in that phase of her life where she was "too old for dolls," so I was given her whole collection. That was one of them. I thought it was really cool, and I don't think I had any issues with mine, either that or I don't remember the magnet coming loose.

[@LionQueen106]

Wow, I actually had the Skydancer that you showed in the photo growing up. 🤣 I actually feel like a bit of a super Auntie right now. 😊 I officially got my oldest nephew ( he’s 7, soon to be 8) his first doll to start his doll collection. 😊 We went to 2 different Walmarts today, I was trying to find the Rainbow High Winter Break dolls, but sadly, at both stores, I had no luck, so sadly I didn’t get any of those today, but, at the second Walmart, I was looking at the other dolls that were there, and so was my nephew, and as we were looking, he asked if I could get him something, I said yes, and then he asks me. “ Auntie Hannah, would it be weird for a boy to get a doll?” Of course, I tell him it’s absolutely not weird and he could get a doll if he wants too, he smiled so big and he got the doll from the new Spirit movie, it came with the girl and Spirit. He wanted to get Skyler too, ( yes, Rainbow High Skyler) but I couldn’t afford it. ( I wanted to set some money aside for when I do find the Winter Break dolls.) So I told him I’d get him Skyler for his Birthday. 😊 he was so happy, he gave me the biggest hug, and I just felt so happy for him. 😊😊😊💜💜💜

I had magnetic Polly Pockets. Never had them thrown away 🤣

[@Jessica-ml6td]

I had to rollerblade Barbie as a kid I remember asking my parents why there was warning on a box about being careful around rubbing alcohol

[@LauraOnDuty]

It’s too bad about the Polly Pocket dolls with magnetic clothes more as they were easier to put onto the dolls. The rubber clothes were a pain in the bum to put on the dolls. X( And yeah! Number 8 should have been restricted, making it available for adult doll collectors only. I had the Skydancer named Angelica. I guess I’m one of the lucky ones. I wonder how the producers of dolls prevent toxic chemicals?

[@stephenjholloway27]

I can't believe that they made a Barbie that has rollerblades that spark. That's nuts!

[@calynnlock6774]

I remember the Polly pocket recall of 2007 of that play set and I think it was not just the magnets, but also the possibility of lead in the paint. I remember watching the news story with my parents as it came on the TV and my little sister had the set and we all loved it. We really did not want them to take it away and return it so they basically had a talk with us about the issues with it and how to be extra careful with the toy so we could keep it and continue playing with it. Always thought it was a good learning opportunity and parenting move.

[@kayleighbrown459]

I had a sky dancer as a kid. Oh the number of times it hit my mother in the head.

i had the cabbage patch doll that ate. now i wish i hadnt gotten rid of it years ago. honestly though, i remember the gear being pretty far back in its mouth/throat. id stick my fingers part way in all the time as a kid to get the food to go all the way through (it had a tendency to get stuck and not fall through into the backpack where you were supposed to gather it after) and had no issues. guess i was lucky

[@MandVersusNature]

The Cabbage Patch news story where it kept eating a girl’s hair and her scalp was bleeding was the first scary news story I remember as a child

[@Imaginationdiva016]

This brought back memories of my first and only Polly Pocket toy; I think it was called the Polly Pocket Boutique - it was my first serious big toy, it was big and pink and I was really proud of it. I think I was around 11 and I made the mistake of wanting to show it off to friends - because a few months into owning it, pieces of the magnetic clothes and boutique furniture started going missing - I’m now 26, and if i ever track down this toy again, I’m gonna grab it purely for nostalgia sake and do my damn best to preserve it

The toxic chemical recalls are a textbook example of why you shouldn't buy counterfeit toys. If legit toys are victims of this, counterfeit are like 1000% more likely to contain toxic stuff.

[@Jackie-cf5km]

I'm so happy you covered the RollerBlade Barbie Dolls. I had the roller blade Barbie too! my parents wouldn't let me play, or open them because of the "issues". But..... I'm so thankful that my parents kept them figuring they may be valuable someday. Now I'm a doll collector and borderline hoarder.

[@Kris_2213]

I had the light up skate barbie, and I still have some of my sky dancers and I still have a huge OG small Polly picket collection with the playmat. My friend had the eating cabbage patch that got recalled because it would hurt kids who put their fingers in its mouth.

[@artchic528]

Right when the Cabbage Patch Snack Time Kid was beginning to be recalled my mother raced out to get one before they were taken off the shelves because she thought that it would be super valuable. So somewhere I have one NIB. It’s probably gone by now, seeing as we’ve moved around and I’ve moved out, to be honest. I remember the news reports and how little girls would have chunks of their hair and even scalp ripped out by these dolls. The on/off switch for the chewing mechanism wasn’t easily accessible. You literally had to strip the doll naked and open its back to access it.

[@em84c]

Omg that's like a horror movie. Imagine you're getting scalped, blood is everywhere, and this blank eyed doll just keeps munching away.
