I grew up in South Africa and most of my dolls were knockoffs. I remember the basic barbies costing about 80 Rand and my first Monster High doll was 250 Rand, which was considered very expensive at the time. Because of that my first MH doll (first wave Frankie) was kept in really good condition for most of the years that I've had her!

LOL That is seriously....it would be a dream come true for me if I was a better artist and able to make doll parts...for the curious , one line would be about Kogals but although they would still be a fashion doll line there would be more of a focus on intelligence and kindness. So they would come not just with fashion but things like computers / laptops and / or books. Like the omg dolls some of them would be music related as well. Then there are the punk lines... Polka dot punks , paisley punks , and pastel punks. 😂 A bunch of horror / Goth girls too...since I hate hard plastic shoes for dolls , there wouldn't be any hard plastic shoes , the shoes and boots being made differently would be part of what sets them apart from other dolls. And there would be more than one body type. All articulated because I hate it when a doll can't really do much posing or sit like a real person. I hope OP comes back and gives us some info on their dream doll lines.

The Fake Barbies were completely hollow and you could push dents in their boobs and such 🤣 The fake Bratz were actually quite ok. I had a brunette one which I named "Emily" and unlike real Bratz she had regular feet instead of detachable ones. The other fake Bratz doll I had (and still have) in an American Girls sized doll from the brand "Scampz". She used to be one of my favourite dolls but now I think she looks weird.

You're right, they are not that bad. I have bought fakes in the past because I was a little light on money. They didn't look that bad through the packaging. They were disappointing out of the box, and the kids seemed to realize they were fakes also. Still as play toys, I didn't mind them being mucked up by the kids. My disappointment was eased, a little, by reading the boxes and laughing at the grammar errors and spelling mistakes.

I remeber when I was a kid my parents bought me Barbie dolls because we watched the Barbie films together with my dad and he knew the characters so he could buy those but many parents didn't know the distinction between barbie and knockoffs so they just bought a "barbie doll" (in Hungarian they tend to call every doll barbie) which was a knockoff since they didn't recognise the difference. Idk if many kids cared about the actual brands back then, I did but probably most of them didn't. So probably these brands mainly live from that.

I never wanted 99 cent store or Dollar Tree dolls aka bootleg or budget dolls when i was younger because I knew that they sucked, they were bald, flimsy, and kind of sticky and stinky. One time I gave in and bought a chick from the 99 cent store, she had shoes, she didn't stink and she was a good looking budget doll unlike the others I've seen. I used her as the "teenage baby sitter who is kind of neglectful", I truly loved her until I lost one of her knee length shoes out the window, then she just disappeared out of nowhere xD (Might I add she was bald but I found a way to conceal the baldness via having her hair down or leaving it in her ponytail, she had rubbery legs but her pretty face distracted me from her normal budget doll qualities)
