DOLL NEWS! New Barbie, Monster High, Disney & More! April 2024

[@Leo-Galaxy]

*It's crazy that even after the success of the Barbie movie, Mattel still won't put some more money and thought into the Barbie dolls!*

[@gw0rlcl0v3r]

ikr!

[@vittoriopiorosariosavasta7590]

I read an article where is said that Mattel will cut costs even more

[@megdelaney3677]

Agreed!

[@lilbit1535]

"It's not Totally Hair, it's like somewhat hair, Totally Underwhelming Hair". it was at this point I laughed so loud, my cat was freaked out. 😂🤣😂

[@tylahtodd-mcmahon4399]

The Barbie dream besties remind me of ever after high!

[@mimimoneymachine]

for me its a mix of ever after high and just a touch of myscene

[@tylahtodd-mcmahon4399]

​@@mimimoneymachineExactly! The face is definitely a EAH sculpt

[@fabianastacia3350]

Yeah, they're like eah dolls without the "princess" part. I really like them.

[@JuJuAleksa]

Definitely EAH reboot sculpts - that was the first thing I saw

[@LittlemisstoxicTfc]

I just want princess and the pauper quality dolls though

[@ariadnefrolich7243]

As a Monster High collector I'm torn between being happy there is a new character and upset that she has little to no story. She's got a poem and that's it. I want to know more Mattel!

[@Monty-hz7vj]

I am too, and i was so taken aback when i saw she had no diary and her pet had no name which is odd for Monster High pets since they always have a fun name

[@ReeceCie]

​@@Monty-hz7vj I named it candlecrawler

[@JudeDragon158]

Lost Lenore lost her lore

[@ariadnefrolich7243]

@@JudeDragon158 Lol, good one!

[@JoVs-vv8lm]

Same! I think they lost a great opportunity to introduce Lenore to the MH World. I have to say that the doll it’s pretty but the fact that she doesn’t have a full story or something that make us love the doll just came with a poem ☹️.

[@my_wikkle_pony]

Its CLEAR me and so many other types of mattel consumers share same opinions as joey. It's clear that barbie/mattel don't wanna give us what we want; That's a strategy despite not looking that way. They prioritise money and sacrificed so much for it, instead they need to adapt a strategy more inclusive of all consumers. They front to be so ethical However, they always release a line to push great quality doll brands out of the market. Many brands go through an era of being under bad descision makers lets hope this too shall pass.

[@julieletford5695]

Mattel. Please hire Joey. He will fix the disappointing barbie lines.

[@TealCheetah]

I emailed Moose about selling dolls without the reveal nonsense. Their response was ItS PaRtE oF tHe ExPeRieNcE I guess a seagull choking on the packaging in the landfill later is part of the experience too

[@TealCheetah]

I actually left the reveal stuff in the walmart parking lot after removing the doll. I really like the line but all that extra crap reveal packaging, ugh

[@harleyquinn8D]

​@TealCheetah that's you didn't recycle? 🤨

[@katwitanruna]

That‘s the color Skipper I had. I’m 62. It was more reddish brown to my eyes and made it feel more like me.

[@kadawalden]

Yay! I ordered the rockabilly Operetta. Absolutely love her sexy retro vibe and the longer hair on this doll. I considered the new Lenore doll - I love Halloween too so her theme speaks to me. But you're right, for $75, there was too much blue plastic (although the melting candle on the spider pet is super cute). I passed on her. Thanks for sharing this doll news update! Love your channel. - Kada 💕

[@BeautyInsideABox]

I’m definitely gonna get operetta when I have some money. I feel like Lenore isn’t worth an extra $25…

[@hepburned1205]

Slight correction, LUV dolls are made by Far Out Toys, the creators of Glo-Up Girls, which had a gimmick very similar to FailFix. Failfix were actually made by Moose Toys (they’re the ones who make the Pixlings too!)

[@InkpadsPlaypad]

I was just gonna post this 😂👍

[@susanegley4149]

I wish toy manufacturers would use more recyclable packaging.

[@Marge719]

I wish they got rid of plastic packaging altogether, which is possible.

[@intignia]

I had the original Skipper from back in the 60's (I'm 70), and she had dark brown hair.

[@αυτααα]

Dark brown hair would match her more ... Thank you for this comment

[@Thelittlethingsoflife]

I think the only one I really want is the remake of Black Barbie. She’s fab. I do like the Brooklyn and Malibu horse ones too. I’m so thankful that the dolls I grew up with were before this epidemic of painted on, molded on clothes and super cheap, stiff, plasticky fabric.

[@KittiesGalore]

Will definitely be buying the Dream Besties, all four, and Catty Noir from Monster High!Even tho there was some controversy and static online abt her plus sized body type, I love it. Monster High has done EVERY body type now. Good for them for giving us diversity 👏

[@Shaddow953]

Those dream besties look like a softer version of Bratz. I like em, there cute

[@Zathena]

That's the whole thing it's like they're using the original sculpt design they created when they thought they would keep the Bratz trademark.

[@lunaguy1195]

They are like a love child of Bratz and Ever After High

[@Goleon]

@@lunaguy1195- That’s why I got deca vu! The heads are like EAH dolls.

[@Shaddow953]

@@Goleon wow those EAH heads are huge, are the heads Barbie full density or cheaply done?

[@LavenderLydia]

Wait, I want a toast purse!

[@squirllydoodle]

LOVE magic mixies pixlings but HATE the color reveal tube things they come in. when i get the mixies pixlings dolls the packets of "reveal" stuff immediately goes into the trash.

[@woowoowitchymom]

I think the dream besties reminds me of the new Disney dolls

[@amanogirl1]

I put the pop reveal dolls onto made to move bodies, and these will be too. Like the cutie reveal dolls and colour reveal dolls.

[@megdelaney3677]

💖I agree Mattel should improve quality and expand variety. I'd like some fashion packs and/or dolls from the movie, especially the 'Leaving Barbie Land' Pink dress with a felt beret! The Blue dress with the white pointed collar. Weird Barbie's 2nd outfit. Ken in the Black outfit. And an Allan doll that looks like actor Michael Cera! Margot Robbie, that looks more like her, in the Striped Swimsuit! I want it all and I want it now! 🤪

[@megdelaney3677]

I'm tired of all the reveal stuff, not just Mattel. It's a good marketing gimmick. But I'd rather know what I'm getting before I buy it. 🎉

[@Sophie_idk_lol]

1:59 I just really wish that Brooklyn and Barbie were different girls. Barbie has been in the same cinematic universe for over 6 years and it’s annoying. Some different universe again would be nice and as a possible spin off- that would have been a nice opportunity

[@heatherthehylian627]

The new barbie ones at the start are a definite must have. Only going to limit myself to 2 of them (the barbie and Renee). Their faces are very ever after high looking, but I'm here for it. Smyths better get these in!

[@rubyhay450]

Funny enough I was watching Monster High Boo York movie when I saw you uploaded!

[@megdelaney3677]

❤I will be getting the tribute to Black Barbie! Gorgeous Doll!❤

[@therealcuteland]

they missed the mark with the new "totally hair" barbie. they should've given her the super long hair!!

[@PurpleandWhiteStories]

A Barbie and Sisters set! The new Color Reveal mermaids and the Cutie Reveal are a maybe for me. Phisical copies of a new Barbie film would be nice to go with the doll release. Seeing a physical copy of the past films was nice, but it's also harder to get those dolls. Looks like hit or miss with all of them. The magazine cover comment 😂

[@katwitanruna]

I can see plastic and nonremovable clothing for smaller children or children who have sensory issues.

[@rubyhay450]

The black cat is Catty Noir the pop singer!

[@Mariettinitta]

I don’t understand the new Totally with short hair

[@krystajustice1608]

I have a question for you i saw a 1977 Superstar Ken he was naked no outfit no shoes no jewelry for $15.00 body and head good blonde molded hair still full yellow paint i saw it on eBay for $10.00 what do you think of the price should I haggle

[@megdelaney3677]

That's not bad for 1977 Superstar Ken doll. You could research more if you want him with clothes & accessories or NRFB. But of course, that would be more.

[@purplegothicqueen]

I really like Monster High Leonore. Lovely doll. She's on eBay but very expensive

[@Sophie_idk_lol]

Option A: get a G1 doll. Not skullector or limited edition just simple like a howliday OR Option B: Two dolls with a car, suitcases. Extra outfits for each doll and multiple accessories galore MATTEL….

[@EchanteDante]

They have so many reveal dolls because they target audience in 3-12 year olds usually. So they don’t exactly have adult doll collectors at the front of their mind. And when they do they charge adult prices lol.

[@sharonkaysnowton]

Joey, I agree the playline dolls have been "falling in recent years". I do not like the Boba Tea Barbie dolls either. Nor do I like the Color reveal mermaids. I love the two new Fashionistas Barbies-(Totally Hair and the original 1980 black Barbie). I don't care for the Advent calendar. I like the "I love School" Barbie. I love the "Great Horse Chase" Barbies. As an adult doll collector, I only collect Barbies and Kens. I also build my own Barbie Dream Houses. I have a couple of questions- 1) Do you have a Barbie Dream House? If you do, which house do you have? 2) Will you ever do a video of your Barbie Dream House? and 3) Do you have any KEN dolls? If not, you should consider adding the new Barbie Looks AA Buff Ken to your collection. I enjoyed your video.

[@jackiecook8753]

I'm sick of color reveal & dreamtopia...uggghhh...just not my cup of plastic 😂

[@JohannaMerino-pd9qe]

Hi, I'm 10 this is my moms account. I don't care for articulation. For example when I was 3 I got a Barbie dreamtopia doll. I still play with it. So kids don't really care.i'm a kid myself.

[@krystajustice1608]

Also I saw a 1991 Barbie Carrers Space Discovery $35.00 for the doll in tje astronaut outfit no gloves no accessories she does have boots i saw hee on ebay for $18.00 for the same Barbie

[@Rabbit-moon-qj3uh]

Great review! Yeah, so many of the Mattel dolls are such rubbish now. It’s so disappointing. 😩

[@darklight4251]

I like the Barbie dream besties. They are cool and I like their faces. I don't know if I'll buy one or not but they are cute. I don't like any of the other Barbie. They are boring to me. Operetta is gorgeous but of course not easily available in Europe. I love the Pixlings but I only have one. I can't stant the thought of having to buy one more of these magic potion bottles. I hope to find some second hand in the future. I really loved Fail Fix. They are great little dolls.

[@kumachan9311]

🎶Somewhat Hair Barbieeee🎶

[@KnitPurlGurl]

Excited for the Besties dolls, and the new Pixlings…but that’s about it 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@docteurroro2342]

These two new "fashionistas" are a must have for me , especially the one with the afro hair !! I will pass on the rest ! But the Monster High dolls are cute, even if the car witha ll this stuff will be very expensive in France, if it is sold one day here... 🙄😅

[@lanxborealis]

Anyone else just not into the scrawny monster high arms? I know they are technically thicker now than they were 10 years ago, but I feel like it just throws off the whole look for me.. unless there are sleeves 🤷‍♀️

[@foreverbarbie9490]

Dude the Barbie dream line looks exactly like Ever after High like what the HEck!? I don't like it at all

[@ardala3922]

Can we please talk about barbie ever shrinking skinny body, no chest, no hip, clothing hanging on her like a coat rack, and her Ever enlarging head! Is it just me or is the head on the fashionistas become huge!

[@Sophie_idk_lol]

Not stopping my demonstrations for Barbie to get A NEW FREAKIN FACE

[@susanegley4149]

A sleepover with your pets so fits so many people though. 😂 Socializing is too overrated .

[@Gruenhaupt]

It‘s a pity that the left Barbie has so short hair! Because I like the idea that they make a new Totally Hair Barbie. I had the Totally Hair Barbie when I was a child.

[@paultidd]

Those Dream Besties are just the heads of the Barbie Extra Mini dolls on the Barbie Extra doll bodies.

[@zexalchbanechbane5451]

Make a video of the history of Winx club dolls ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ pls🙏🙏

[@shofranz-moss4002]

I SAID THE SAME THING BEFORE. JAKKS PACIFIC SHOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE DISNEY DOLL LICENSING

[@kimberley6446]

I dont know what my problem is but nothing lately is calling me. Just, blah

[@missboozehound]

They better release the Totally Hair Fashionista with longer hair. That doll will definitely warm the peg.

[@RamizAhmed-ky8sw]

💝💖💗💓 Barbie Dream Besties dolls 🤩 Not available in India 💔😭

[@InkpadsPlaypad]

Well, the most exciting releases I am finding myself attracted to ATM are Decora Girlz, the 65th anniversary Trolls, Strawberry Shortcake and Rainbow Brite return. We are having to scrape for the goodness lately, for sure!

[@laurafrakinroslin]

Barbie is an amazing brand. They have the best body of any playline and every year they choose mediocrity

[@krystajustice1608]

Hope your Easter was nice

[@Alice_Addams13]

That Belle is horrendous. Excited for the new Twyla.

[@meganthompson1159]

For a moment I thought the dream barbie besties were ever after high 🤔because of the faces

[@MishaSims]

The monster high doll that looked like a black cat with all the hot pink is Catty Noir (black cat), the pop star who's in the boo york movie

[@poshbarbieboi]

I have the Skipper Reproduction doll and she is beautiful in person. Also, just for the new Barbie Fashionistas and they are nice in person, especially the Black Barbie 💖

[@churrocoffee]

Totally Underwhelming Hair Barbie 🤣🤣

[@rachealholaday2998]

i am sick to death of the Millie face mold. it needs retired. forever!!!!!

[@slytheringingerwitch]

The Barbie Dream besties are a Bratz, Ever After High & My Scene mix. I like them. I probably won't buy them but they are cute.

[@judrawing]

12:37 the miniature school is related to the dices and mini figures, it’s a rpg I think

[@lanxborealis]

I came to say this!

[@lars7282]

When do we finally get the first CUTIE REVEAL KEN?! wtf Doll News is back, still my favourite videos on this channel ☺️👍🏼

Renee is so cute. I love her pigtails. :3

[@susanegley4149]

I wish shipping wasn't so expensive. I would love to shop for dolls that y'all don't get and send them to you. Plus, what is up with customs fees? Say I were to send you a $20 doll, how much would they charge you?

[@DaffCookie]

Normally nothing for $20 in the UK. Anything over £15 (or £36 if gift ) get's charged 20% including the postage :( Like I don't get charged for my T-Turtles. But Breyers get charged.

[@Sophie_idk_lol]

6:51 Barbies hair color looks really unique !

The new Pixlings are adorable. I kinda want all three.

The bar is like could this even be described as a ‘fashion doll’? 😂🫠

[@Shadowbugfanmades]

Joey, I don't know if you know this but on the Smyths Toys website it says that the Monster High Creeproduction dolls will be back in stock in the UK soon😊

[@xenaturner1244]

I think its Lenore

[@ava.4150]

I received the Barbie fashionistas 65th anniversary doll the one that is supposed to represent totally hair Barbie. The hair is a terrible nylon and not crimped to the top of her head, just the bottom half. Plus it's sooo uneven and coming out. It sticks out everywhere when you brush it. So disappointing. Plus her shoes refuse to stay on. It's cheap crap. Not like the 1970's and 1980's Barbie's I had as a kid.

[@gdave53925_]

You don't really seem to like much of anything from Barbie. Most of these dolls are aimed at 6 year old kids, not adult collectors. I don't begen consider buying most of the play line dolls other than fashionistas. I do love the dream besties, intjink they're adorable. Not really my thing with the big heads but i love them.

[@ladida7841]

Hi Joey.❤ We Giving stroopwafels and Netherlands Licorice to Joey are New Friend. Hasbro Disney Princess Royal Shimmer Mulan Doll Gives to Anika.

[@augustanna8386]

The only one that I really want is the Torelei with short hair. But, I'm old and just recently got back into collecting dolls. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Then again, I'll probably want the Totally Hair Barbie just because I had the original and loved it so much.

[@exploringim6191]

Y'all... Where's Bratz? I know there is supposed to be a movie. But OMG and Rainbow High are barely making waves. Bratz was supposed to be leading MGA now. Where are they?? Where is MGA??

[@monnarkh]

I like the Barbie Dream Besties, particularly Renee, although I don't like the names and I don't get the Barbie "X" and Barbie "Y" thing.

Am I early?? 🎉

It's so cute that you think people can wear heels at an American festival. Definitely not unless you want them destroyed. It's gonna be a muddy mess if it rains even if for 5 minutes.

STOP MAKING BLIND BAG THINGS ..im so over it and it always like 20-30-40 dollars for one and you never get the ones u want. A blind bag sure for 3-5 dollars but not more ..come on..
