the candy irl is alled sno-caps and its literaly just chocolate chips rolled in white round sprinkles, loved them as a kid tbh!

[@magdlynstrouble2036]

Yes, and the official type of candy name is chocolate nonpareils.😊

[@tamaraarcher855]

Something I recently noticed is that they place the dolls differently in the box. It's pretty weird to me because to me the different heights are a selling feature but you almost can't tell on the shelf. Poor Dracula is floating in her box.😂

[@piggycounticecream]

if you haven’t heard already the bottom of g3 abbey’s shoes is a reference to g1’s! if you look at the bottom of both you’ll see that they are the same!! also, something weird is that on g3 abbeys face sculpt her lips ARE very big but her face paint doesn’t reflect it sadly :( i’ve seen a few people repaint it and you can see her big lips and even her underbite way better i think this is a common issue with g3 dolls in general as i’ve noticed all g3 face sculpts have way bigger lips than what’s printed (including mine 😅)

[@d0llyuh]

omg susato pfp spotted

[@c.w.2000]

Now that you mention it, I do see a larger outline for the lips in the video. I will have to see what it looks like in person when I get the doll. I don't mind the smaller lips, but there was definitely more individual character to Abbey with an underbite.

I really like Abbeys makeup & body type & height. Also love that she has pants. I do wish her hair wasn’t poly and I wish her hair was styled in a way to show off the horns I’m still trying to figure out if there’s a way to do this so far I can’t find a way to get them to actually show up in a photo 🤦🏻‍♀️🤞. I also wish the top was 2 pieces. Love her pet & all her accessories. She’ll be the 1st that I’ll have a double of I plan to reroot my 2nd I’m thinking of trying darker hair - dark purple to match the eyebrows and maybe a darker color will also allow the horns to actually show 🤞💜💙

[@WrenMcNally]

I think with Abbey, she was a great doll in G1 and they made her even better which is mind blowing. I like her naughties inspired outfit and the contrast of dressing for warmth but also not needing it. Long sleeves but sheer, long pants but split and furry shoes but they are sandles.

[@kevinarft4625]

You should try switching the Abbey heads to other Abbey bodies. The difference in size might give you some new interesting looks.

[@Fables_Grim]

Got my Abbey on Wednesday and in love she came from Amazon

[@lianna3691]

I really appreciate the longer review ❤ The body build comparison was my favorite part as seeing Abbey side by side other dolls made the similarities and differences super clear! I hope they reuse her body build, as I could see it working well for a superhero character like Wonder Woman or even just more athletic/sporty dolls.

[@EmmaWaterhouse-xs2dg]

She is gorgeous. Her purple nose is adorable. Shame for the hair though. But I love her

[@susangriner6736]

I love G3 Abbey - her big selling point for me is her larger body

[@whoajoooe]

She looks great! Shame about the poly though. I'm excited to get her once she hits stores! I think the platform sandals are there because they were popular in the early 2000s, which would be in line with the rest of her design to my knowledge. Might be more to it than that, but thats what comes to mind.

[@jackiecook8753]

Love I can share RH clothes with her. I like how you display your dolls with playsets or at least in different poses besides just standard standing.

[@L0rdOfThePies]

I honestly miss her stronger face shape and pout from G1, but i love her new body shape alot :-) never made sense for yeti’s daughter to be skinny hahah

[@Zombiecupcake157]

I should have ordered with entertainment earth when you told us about the pre-order a while ago!! I was thinking she would definitely be on shelves by now. Ugh! She is my favorite ever!!! My Target can kick rocks, by the way. They only carry two Creepover dolls.

[@jooyyyyyy]

I prefer g3 abbey, the doll has more Nepali inspired accessories such as the ear pieces which make me so happy as in the doll community there is very little south asian representation

[@Gibbs-yf8bl]

Super off video topic but I love all your Liv dolls in the background! I’ve never seen anyone else with a Liv collection before they’re some of my favorite dolls!

[@joann3190]

G3 Abby is it for me, she looks like an actually Yeti, and she is gorgeous! The old one look like someone who had a Barbie doll, and just painted it blue, and give it colourful highlights, and her clothes look tacky, and cheap, why are people saying the original is better? They were the same quality as of now!

[@megansanborn9751]

I am gonna reroot my Abby once I get her. Plus I have been waiting for an Abby doll in G3 since it launched. I'm also thinking of flauking my Abby's shoes.

[@bigmamama2088]

[@shashalove7541]

Just started liking this doll line. So I been watching doll reviews and trying to figure out which one will be my first. I believe this is it. I also like Cleo. Great review.

[@Alissi-P]

I’d love to see her next to a G1 little sister body type or a DC superhero girls doll (they have similar builds to the g3 ghoulies but are quite a bit taller)

[@silhouettoofaman2935]

The one thing keeping me away from Monster High in the past, even when I was starting to get into dolls, was the body sculpt. They all looked like their backs were run over by a truck to me lol. But seeing this new Abbey and Draculaura on store shelves with their fuller and curvier designs, it made me finally take the plunge! Hair quality aside, I'm already having a good time playing with her, thoroughly impressed by her range of articulation (that chest joint in particular is very versatile!) that makes posing a breeze!

[@rabbitsaurus]

I wasn’t a fan of gen1 Abbey doll, 3rd gen Abbey is so gorgeous and unique I had to get her! It’s funny bc I really don’t care for the gen3 MH dolls in general.

[@magdlynstrouble2036]

Great review 💙💜💙

[@bethschreiber6107]

OMG!!! She is soooo cute! I cannot wait to get her! She might be my favorite...but maybe they're all my favorite! I missed Monster High the first time around because my girls were mostly past dolls at that point. So I was so excited when they announced they were bringing them back and I have been so happy with my ghouls! ❤

[@e.d.t.]

Super cute. I liked G1's hair and outfit but not her face. This one I like all around. The horns are a bonus.

[@Olive-cy3rk]

I wish they kept Abby’s unique face type like her underbite and wide jaw. I love the purple nose and horns tho! Her new body type is fab and suits her character. However, if they’re going to be inclusive with body’s they should be more inclusive with faces too, and in this case I think they just made Abby prettier and similar to the other G3 dolls which I don’t think is very inclusive. I miss all of the white fluff on gen1 too. So it would be cool to add more of gen1 abby to gen3 so it’s a bit more like the OG.

[@I_love_crocheting581]

i love her ❤ i love g3 ❤

Hi Dolls 👋 I really love the texture on the G1 doll so much, also her pouty mouth. Hopefully I find G3 soon. 😉

I'm in agreement. Now they need to include seniors!

[@LavenderRose3]

The G3 Abbey looks perfect and so pretty! 😍

[@roseyposey893]

I'm obsessed with Abbey's body type. Shes substantial and way prettier than alot of my RH dolls...

[@EmmaJ_95]

She’s my favourite from G1 so you can imagine my excitement from my local Smiths toys in Scotland. Totally worth the £30

[@tcardenas7249]

Her shoes are supposed to be imitating the Ugg fur slippers

[@bethschreiber6107]

The candy is snow caps and they're like little chocolate chips with white sprinkles.

[@amybeal2507]

The outfit is giving me late 90’s early 2000’s and the shoes are very platform slides

[@amieemchutchon411]

Iv only just got this one. I took those bands at the front out and gave her a high pony tail to show off the horns and ears. I got Lagoona at the same time, I’m new to collecting these and really couldn’t get on with lagoona’s hair. I gave her a big side plat to tame it.

I absolutely love gen 3 abbey so much but i do wish she kept the underbite because that was something that gen 1 abbey has. Thats the reason why gen 1 abbey has a bigger bottom lip.

Maybe you can reroot one of your other G3 Abby’s with saran or nylon once you get them.

In my experience boiling polypropylene and then using a hair straightener on low heat is safe but I haven’t tried on Abbey at all yet!

I got her yesterday and LOVE her. But her hair is ungodly awful. I haven't thought any of the others (including Clawdeen) were all that bad but Abbey's came out of the box tangled, dry, and awful.

[@KoujiAlex]

Honestly, Polypropylene hair is killing my interest in Gen 3 dolls. As soon as I hear a new Gen 3 MH doll has poly, it is an absolute pass for me. As a collector who loves styling doll hair upon its arrival, it's an absolute nightmare having to deal with poly hair. I have tried to boil washing it, but it immediately curls on the ends and it's not manageable at all. I truly despise it.

She looks way better in G3 than in the original, in the original, she doesn't even look like a monster. People who says the original is better, they are either someone who can't accept changes, and or, the nostalgic, thus think the original is better, when it was the same. Edited: I never like MH until G3, so yes, I may be bias, but I prefer their new looks.
