I was a freelance graphic designer and illustrator on the Pinkie Cooper project! I was responsible for some illustration work and mocking up merch which included stickers, clothes, shoes and more. Sadly, none of these products were made. Never expected you to talk about it on this channel, thanks for the nostalgia trip! 😂

[@candy-kp8bb]

weird question but how did you get a job as a toy illustrator/graphic designer? i’m interested in having a career in those fields. and did the job pay well?

[@melonleaf245]

@@candy-kp8bbnot a weird question at all! I did a four year bachelor of design program at a university but there are lots of options for college and online schooling nowadays! I also recommend networking as much as you can because I get all my clients through word of mouth or through other clients. Finally, the last piece of advice I have is put the type of work you want to be doing in your portfolio so that you can attract the type of clients you want and get paid to do the type of work you want. It’s totally okay to create your own personal projects or mock client projects in your portfolio when you’re starting out. Expect your pay to be lower in the beginning but once you get more experience, you can charge more. You can also find salaried positions, which is what I recommend to aim for when starting out so that you can learn how the industry works and get some experience under your belt before being a freelancer. Hope this was helpful and good luck! ❤

The irony of Mattel trying to copy Bratz’ success in the 2000s, only for Bratz to do the EXCACT same thing in the 2010s when Mattel created Monster High.

[@Flour262]

They are like 2 kids stealing each other’s art project ideas

[@Iinemiida]

There was a whole lawsuit about the bratz vs myscene thing and despite not being released until later myscene was in fact proven to be the original concept and thus bratz is the copy (the guy who created bratz actually worked for Mattel around the time myscene was being worked on and had left and went to mga just to steal the concept.)

[@2doot]

Bratz did it pretty well, though. The Bratzillas were genuinely gorgeous dolls and if I didn't have MH loyalty at the time (I was violently autistic kid absolutely OBSESSED with MH, it was inevitable I'd take their side) I'd have almost preferred the glass eye look of Bratzillas more.

[@magnolia6968]

[@AniToonimationKawaii]

A little fun fact, the sweet themed Kuu Kuu Harajuku dolls sadly ended up being unreleased. And that the show ended off with a cliffhanger. It would have been nice for the series to come back for a 4th season given how the later 2 seasons changed the series from it's OG premise that season 1 had and that the animation also changed and to many, improved from it's flaws. And that season 1 aired out of order when it aired on Nickelodeon in the US. Overall, you did a great video.

It's almost insulting that the critics reduced Kuu Kuu HaraJuku girls to simply "cultural appropriation", im a guy and not into Gwen Stefani but i think it's great she took a genuine interest into Japanese fashion and wanted to show it off, at least to me it doesn't come off as pandering, she seemed legitimately passionate about it

[@AniToonimationKawaii]

Yeah, I don't see any cultural appropriation at all to the series. As it's a fantasy take on Harajuku with the inspiration it has.

[@impposter560]

I don't know if it is or not, but I'm impressed she hired actual Japanese women and didn't just go for 'Asian' like other artists. I think whether or not it was problematic would depend on how much say those women had, or if Gwen had exclusive control of how they were represented. I can see it going either way, I guess?

[@eatatjoes6751]

It’s the same thing I feel about Flavas, weirdly enough. Yeah, they were corny and reeked of “WE DOES THE HIPPIDY HOP MUZAK” but compared to Barbie’s “one/two/three Black woman limit, and she’s the doll equivalent of perfection.” as a black person I thought they were stupidly charming. *AT LEAST THEY CONSULTED SOMEONE.*

[@KasandraJoy]

@@impposter560I watched it somewhere that the Harajuku girls were only allowed to talk in Japanese even though, if I remember correctly some of them where born in the USA so I think that’s why some people thought she was treating them like an accessory rather than people. At least through the public eyes. But only the girls themselves would have to speak out on their behalf on how they feel as they were treated and represented.

My main gripe with dolls, no matter which line, is articulation. If it doesn't have at least 9 points of articulation (head, shoulders, elbows, hips and knees) I refuse to buy any.

I only remember them for the advertising in stardoll omg

[@TributesAndUnique]

Trollz is a legacy I can never forget. I actually watched my fair share of the cartoon episodes. I actually thought Flavas was cool 😭

[@ChrisTheClikkie]

The way I DIDN'T know that trollz and the movies of them WERE THE SAME basically 😭

[@lilyannerose7381]

ty girlz, trollz, yummi land, and la dee da were my absolute favs as a kid. i still have some of all of these

[@allison5591]

Dang it, I need a Novi Star bad. Sad I had a few dolls on this list but not these days. A flava and a secret central. XD

[@m1chell3-x1]

Didn't know the kuu kuu harajuku girls were supposed to be Gwen Stefani merch 😂 I was given a character perfume bottle that I still have and never looked into it 😅

[@rayesoucy1491]

I have dolls from four of these lines (Pinkie Cooper, La Dee Da, Bratzillas, and Novi Stars)

[@HeyItsNovalee]

Niche doll lore is so interesting to me, I’d absolutely love a part 2

[@annellora]

Core memory unlocked, I had the purple Trollz doll! My parents bought it for my while at vacation by the seaside. I still remember playing with her headless intercheangable bodies. I also had Scent Stars Lily and to this day I remember her nice smell! I'm also pretty sure I had Yummi-Land one, I remember the bottle, not which doll I got though. I think it was one of the red ones? Thank you so much for this video, it took me back to my childhood ♥

[@marikkelaszlo3355]

NEVER CLICKED SO FAST! FINALLY A NEW VIDEO!!

[@RANima71498]

Pinkie Cooper and Bratzillas were the only discontinued dolls on this list that I actually remember seeing commercials for AND watching their webseries. I preferred Bratzillas cause I was super obsessed with witches at that point in my life. I never did get to have one and was heartbroken when their line was discontinued. I still think there’s a glimmer of potential there, but I do understand why they didn’t stand a chance. When your competition is Monster High, you never could win.

[@sheanartisthunty]

I was DEVASTATED when Trollz were eventually never to be seen again 😭😭😭

[@midoriya-shonen]

Oh. My. GOD!!!! I was OBSESSED with the Secret Central episodes as a kid!!!!! I found them on Hasbro's website, and frequently checked to see if they'd finally added more episodes yet. I tried to find other people who liked it, but no one I talked to had ever heard about it. I had no idea there were toys associated with it. I've wondered for years what the deal with those random three episodes on a flash game website was, but I never expected to actually get answers. Thank you!!!

[@NoShyira]

Part 2 please! Your mention of Novi Starz has reminded me of Zelfs. I wanted to collect dolls from both of these but they were expensive and hard to find at the time. Same with Bratzilaz.

[@Skyzeri]

Secret Central - have you heard 🎶? Loved this video! Forgot about the 2000s troll show and website. I also loved the Yummi Land dolls. great throwbacks in here. Anyone remember the Tootsville elephants? lol

[@hagelgevaret5174]

One I've never heard anybody mention is Beatrix Girls. They were a Spice Girls-esque band of dolls who made songs and videos on youtube. I remember they were advertized a lot in magazines here in Sweden.

[@Mars_loves_cartoons]

I actually remember owning ty girls, good old days ❤

[@choicelyon2131]

Def interested in a Part 2! I definitely learned about a lot of doll lines for the first time through this vid!

[@SykoMuffin]

I miss Trollz for some reason. I always remembered seeing commercials for their cartoon and the dolls but I never bought them, even though I thought they were cool lol.

[@LaBellesGrace]

24:01 anyone else notice that the photo is Isaac Larian the CEO of MGA, and not Carter Bryan? Whoops! 🩷

[@Hello-Ashie]

As someone who collects Hello Kitty TYs I wasn't expecting to find a new doll I need in my collection in this video till you put up the picture of the TYGirls Li'l Ones and I spotted the HK one 😭 off to Ebay i guess she's so silly. Great video I really enjoyed it

[@ageorama]

omg trollz you just unlocked a new memory for me

[@love4trollz]

Woooo

[@SparkOfAsh]

Oh my God this gave me so much nostalgia. I was never much of a doll person as a kid, but I was OBSESSED with YummiLand.

[@sir-ani8927]

I remember really wanting the novi stars and seeing the soda pop doll commercials as a kid. I think the bottle designs were so cute

[@marieortie3096]

I loved my Scent Stars sooo much, I thought they were so cute 🥰 In France, they were named "Parfumelle".

[@zarakoda]

This was EXTREMELY interesting. If you want to make a part two, I'd be here for it!

[@DollsBoredom]

Part 2 please I love this

[@ITZ_MERP]

The Pinkie Cooper comic made my draw DROP.

[@abenas]

oh my god. for YEARS i’ve been trying to remember a website i found when i was a kid in the 2000s and had a character named roro. that was all the information i had, so googling brought up nothing and it was just something locked away in my head that i would sometimes try to figure out. and you just helped me solve the mystery! it was secret central. i definitely never had the dolls, but i remember loving the website animated characters. thank you for helping me solve my personal mystery 😂

[@BanoraRuins]

OMG I LOVED THE BRATZILLAS HELLO??? I THOUGHT IT WAS A FEVER DREAM. i still remember the commercial song and i NEVER got one despite constantly asking for one
