Things I HATE about my dolls

[@tamaraarcher855]

The thing that drives me most insane is when a design doesn't follow on the back. Bonus points for when this is the gimmick of the doll (a couple of barbie movie tie in dolls come to mind). I think the reason it gets me so much is because the ads were always like surprise she's 2 dolls in one and it always felt as a kid like an attack on my intelligence. I have eyes I can see behind her. Still to this day I don't understand why it's considered an acceptable cost cutting method. Dolls are a 3d medium. If she only looks good in your concept art you've messed up.

[@xCanadensis]

Oh my goddd this is such a good one…

[@brittneycofey8753]

I wholeheartedly agree with you! Like how do they manage to create beautiful concept art, just for the doll to be a fugly mess 🧐😅Dream Ella and Mermaid High look way better in the artwork than the dolls themselves.

[@jenniferh.2541]

I see them and go "cheep cheep cheeeeeeep" Like.. As you said, this is a whole arse look. Who would have no printing on the back of their clothes? Nobody. Barbara certianly woukd never

[@doll_dress_swap12]

“I have eyes I can see behind her” 😂 lol, so accurate.

[@texbex1468]

@@jenniferh.2541 They’ve actually done this to Barbie a lot for the past 7-8 years :((( Even certain “collector” dolls (since you’re not expected to unbox them), like one of the Lunar New Year dolls. Modern Mattel has no scruples. Actually, there are some vintage 90s examples as well, but it’s much more rare. Barbie, be it playline or collector, is not what it once was.

[@yolklor]

this is a little random, but i always love how you use the term "connecting" with a doll. it's that level of personification and love for each doll and their variants and "flaws" that makes collecting and the community so unique to me. sometimes you see a goofy looking or cheaply made doll at the thrift and just... connect immediately, even if it's not other collectors' preferences. every toyline is loved by someone. :) thank you for another fun vid, i look forward to them after classes every day lol!

[@chai9135]

i personally really like these more chatty videos, i do agree with some of the points in these videos and a few even got me on a personal level😂😭

[@leviackermann2.0.26]

One thing i HATE about companies is when they keep on releasing the same doll 100000 times but "with different concepts" like the Playmates Miraculous dolls. It's like actually insane how often they keep on releasing the same Marinette/Ladybug doll and just change the name of the playline or something and they're gonna do that with Rena Rouge and Cat Noir too😭 Like Playmates PLEASE move on from the same characters and give us characters y'all left out with the first MLB Doll run...

[@LePezzy66]

Some thing I absolustly don't like about dolls are: - Dolls that smile too much/are too friendly looking. It's why I don't like most barbie dolls. Don't get me wrong, I love that they exsist. But even as I child I only liked Bratz because of their neutral/sassy face. - Cheap fabric, exactly like you said. FOUL! - Small feet haha. Silly I know. Weird doll proportions never bother me, unless their feet are too small. La dee da has this. I love them otherwise tho! - When they mess up short hair styles with dolls. Sometimes they really nail it, so I just don't get why some dolls have to look like they are in a permanent tornado?? - Molded on clothes. I just don't like it man. There are maybe a fewww exceptions, but I just want to be able to style (or customize) the doll from head to toe myself These are just a few thing off the top of my head! (written halfway watching your video haha)

[@texbex1468]

I’m just curious: Why didn’t you like the smiling face as a kid? Was there less play value due to less mood variety? Super interesting to me. All I had was smiling Barbie (maybe a couple with pouty lips tops). They still acted out all kinds of drama haha. So just wondering why you were repelled by the friendly smiles?

[@dawnieedreams]

ik you did say it at the beginning how tinsel doesnt bother you, and im so happy that it doesnt for you lmao cause i personally cant stand it on my dolls. hair play on dolls is super important to me, it really helps with my anxiety, just brushing a doll's hair for like 5 mins calms me down so much. styling hair is also one of my favorite things to do for my dolls, and when there's tinsel i just dont feel like theres much i can do without it looking horrid to me. plus taking all the tinsel out is such a horrid experience. dolls with a little tinsel are fine like lily cheng, took me like 5 mins to take it all out, but then someone like margot de perla, literally took me 5 hours to get it all out and aaa i just wish they wouldnt have it in the first place, margot in particular cause her hair blend is so pretty with all the blues, purples, pinks, and greens. her subtlety just felt undermined by the bright loud and snaggly tinsel

[@Numbuh4xdxd]

The 2019 DC Superhero Girls budget dolls are like the reverse of the no wrists with elbow articulation thing. They have wrist articulation.... *but no elbow??* I dont understand the choice???

[@Numbuh4xdxd]

Also my doll pet peeve is when the head cant move up and down and all around. I dont mind dolls with no articulation at all but at least have a good neck joint.

[@c.w.2000]

Eye issues (shiny/pixelated/wonky) are the worst for me, and I can totally relate to not connecting with a doll that has something off about their eyes. Mattel has a big problem with this, and it seems to be random as to which doll. I returned the Maya Angelou doll from last year because the eyes were too shiny, and the Black Widow Barbie has pixelated eyes. So, even the collector level is not safe, while I have seen some Fashionistas that are fine.

[@juliasdollhouse2360]

I totally agree with most of these! Expecally the V sit I despised it as a kid and I still do now! Also with the saddle stands even dolls that come with it (aka Holiday Barbies) sometimes will still have that gap and it's so annoying. I get the metal stands too! Another thing I hate is when they weirdly smile and star into your soul it like creeps me out.

[@Vercanya]

I had forgotten the straddle sit pose! I hated it with my dolls! I had one barbie with a broken leg where I could see the click joint, I wish I still had my old dolls (my mom gave my toys away without asking me) so that I could have taken a pic of it.

[@xxElyonxx]

this video has inspired me to play a little game called "how many of my childhood bloom doll's clothing pieces and accessories can i find" (the answer is six)

[@DogLover101alsoknownasMegan]

The thing that drives me nuts is when accessories break when you barely move them I also get annoyed with thin rooting especially when you can’t hide the bald spot 😬

[@call9779]

I agree with you about the stand issues. Kaiser type stands were originally designed for porcelain dolls, so they're meant to hold cloth bodied or thick waisted and heavier dolls firmly, since it's really bad if a porcelain doll falls over lol. They're absolutely terrible for most fashion dolls, and can actually cause damage to dolls with plastic bodies if used improperly. And saddle stands were designed for really expensive dolls that the wire of the kaiser type of stand might damage since they didn't have cloth bodies. Again, not really meant for fashion dolls. I don't know why companies even use them for fashion dolls. Different types of dolls need different types of stands. Like, whoever decided to give the hairdorables longest hair ever dolls saddle stands when they have super heavy long hair and super tiny light weight bodies was not thinking.

[@emmaphilo4049]

Shiny paint makes the dolls look cheap. If you ask me, I think they need a coat of matifying varnish. Makes me want to spray mister Clear on their face lol I absolutely loved this video 1/you present dolls I don't necessarily know yet, it's exciting to discover new lines! 2/ I love hearing people just talk about their likes and dislikes in general about a topic they are knowledgeable and passionate about because I can learn a lot from it and get deeper on a subject through someone's expertise 3/ I love collection based video where people just talk about a topic related to their collection. I think the section on dolls wings in itself was sooooo interesting. Thanks for sharing!

[@TheFeelingOfC]

Honestly I LOVE the shiny rainbow high faces, I knew a majority of ppl didn’t like it and I had a feeling mga would get rid of it and they basically have but I fucking love it so much, I just love how shiny and glistening they are

[@Legandary_diva]

The ball jointed wings on the mia and me doll left me speechless......if mattel ever did winx again I swear that is needed!

[@xCanadensis]

RIGHT?! They also did it with less success on some MH dolls. It's so good...

[@TBCaine]

I'm surprised for "bad bangs' series 1 Violet didn't make an appearance xD I swear I have never seen her have good bangs.

[@xCanadensis]

Hers are rooted correctly I think but lord they messed up in the factory with those

[@xfairfaeriex]

I'm completely with you on the misprinted dolls, especially the eyes. I ordered a gorgeous looking doll online where one of the eyes was not within the eye mold at least 2 mm off to the side of the edge and it bothered me soooo much I literally stuffed her in a box in a drawer because I couldn't look at her. The company told me it wasn't considered enough of a quality issue to get sent a replacement and, due to it being ordered abroad, it wasn't worth the money to send it back for a return. That doll is still sitting there not seeing the light of day.

[@marshalmallow7192]

I actually really enjoy misprinted eyes because I think it gives them a really cute expression

[@xCanadensis]

I’ve seen this opinion before! I actually really like some that are placed too high or too low but when it’s one eye out of place and the other in place it just bugs me way too much

[@marshalmallow7192]

@@xCanadensis I get that! Like if it doesn’t look natural or like completely off it’ll bug me.

[@lpshunter9392]

What's really funny is that the intersecting joing (knee joint) of the rainbow high doll is pretty long, so by right it SHOULD be making the leg bend all the way but the problem is whoever made the mold doesn't know how it actually works and picked aesthetics over functionality 😭😭😭😭still love RH! obviously

[@xCanadensis]

There is NO reason the RH dolls can’t fully articulate it’s so??? I did a video where I carved it and made it move like a Liv/MTM knee… so why not carve that extra few mm to make it actually articulate? It’s soooo bizarre

[@atgetc1013]

When you were talking about the functions of the doll stand and sit I related so much with that I felt annoyed and didn’t want to play with it so you explained that on point

[@darrellwallace4182]

Wow, you hit on a serious thing with dolls, specifically articulation, that bothers me so much! This especially bothers me if the doll is made by a company that has done a better articulation system earlier and then starts doing less later. Makes no sense to me. So glad you posted this topic for discussion. Thanks so much for introducing these "what I hate about my dolls" as a conversation starter. I love hearing and talking about it. It may make the companies improve their designs. Thanks again!

[@mariners.moontea]

could you maybe do a top 10 dolls/doll lines in your collection? That would be really interesting!

[@tracyweston7760]

you can add a coat or two of matte sealer to counteract the shiny. the best brands are Golden and Windsor and Newton. Make sure the sealer says for acrylics

[@cure__elise]

Honestly I think some of the nicer wings are actually the playmates Disney fairies, they’re so beautiful but omg they’re way too fragile for play

[@xCanadensis]

They are the most delicate substance known to man… but god they’re pretty. I had to let my mom sell my childhood ones because the wings tore :( if our toys broke we couldn’t have them anymore because we couldn’t care for them properly or whatever… which makes sense but that was NOT my fault at all

[@rexxy5]

I know saddle stands are a pain but it's good to have some for dolls with long or big skirted dresses so you don't squash the dress with the back of the regular stands or sometimes I think it's so you don't see the waist attachment in the photos.

[@shannastech389]

Oh I agree with the shiny eyes for photos. It is annoying. And paper plastic feeling clothing is awful. That needs to be addressed. I personally am not bothered so much about misprints unless it is so bad and one eye is way up and the other way down. I don't like seeing joints on dolls so i prefer the wire body or the bend and snap. But that is me. One thing I do hate is printed on pockets or pockets that don't open. It annoys me. And plastic purses that do not open. They are pointless to me. I would prefer a purse of fabric or at the very least to open if plastic. But once again that is all my preference. Oh and sticky hair or legs really bother me.

[@AngelaTheDoll444]

Fake pockets and purses are the worst. I come from the real fabric era. And straddle sitting is so annoying.

[@ovosan4195]

I have a first edition Draculaura (with gold elastics) and she has a MASSIVE wonky eye 😭 It bothers me sooo much but finding another one is too difficult (and not cheap)

[@xCanadensis]

NOOO 😭😭😭

[@GUSADOLFO251]

Lots of valid concerns, from an adult collector perspective. Maybe the joints on Jakks dolls were tight because it would break off during production and rough play? Musa everyday collection and Stella were meant as budget though. I am a bit surprised you didnt bring up the screening of the new witty dolls. Thanks again for your input :)

[@xCanadensis]

They're not tight at all- it's just that they didn't carve out the elbow correctly to allow the joint to move like it would be able to. They're also incredibly delicate as they are and not articulating as far as they seem like they should makes them *more* prone to breakage. I also don't think "budget" is an excuse for using medical napkins as fabric. It's like... kind of an explanation but it's silly- budget dolls by witty the year before Jakks came out had apparel fabrics. I also don't think it's fair to say I hate a doll because of the art style of the face. That's not an objectively bad thing or a weird mistake- that's just trashing designers which I am 100% against. There's absolutely nothing constructive or helpful in saying "I think the eyes are ugly".

Thanks again for another great vid. 🙂

[@neuvinas]

I'm sorry i know this video is a year old i've just been binging these while cleaning my closet BUT. I have to say. That old giochi preziosi tecna had a full length bodysuit with a tiny little elastic loop at the bottom that goes around under the foot to keep the pants straight when you push the boots up on her leg to avoid weird pants bunching so it's inexcusable to see other doll brands cut costs by giving her lame knee length pants when they already figured out a decent enough solution in the early 2000s. On the other hand the wings kind of sucked ass like tecna's especially were like a small chunk of plastic that attached to her bodysuit with velcro

[@WrenMcNally]

I am sure I have lots of Wonk eye in my MH collection. I sometimes notice it in passing. Of course I would rather nice even eyes but I will take the hit just to add someone to my collection....This brings me to the Skull Shores Ghoulia ......Whew! Aw Man! So first off, I loved her. She was not overly loved by collectors so shelves were FLOODED with her. I remember the Mommy Show it was a running joke of how many were on the shelves. I like her 50s look, with her brain printed beach wrap. She is just adorbs. So I buy one in stores. I do like her still but I see the wonk....I proceed to get my hands on five or six different ones over the years, second hand.....searching for a better set of peepers.....no dice. They are all infected with the Wonk Virus. I give up. I keep the best I find and just appreciate her....although, I would switch in a second if another better one came along. A girl can dream right?

If I'm supposed to be able to brush a doll's hair and can't because it frizzes, sticks and/or tangles right back up, it is a deal breaker for me.

Hi, I'm kind of new to these dog collecting videos, and I hope you don't mind if I ask a question or two to see if I'm in the right place. But you mentioned a lot of times playability and playing with your dolls. What does that mean? Does it mean actually playing with them or maybe just fixing their hair. Usually when I get it all I take care of the box I fix her hair if she comes with multiple outfits I put her in the one I like the most and then that's it I display her. Yes, I perform regular maintenance on them as I dust, or you know sometimes that they need their hair washed I'll do that. And also the connecting with the doll. Is that just a way saying that they'll be certain dolls that you just know when you look at a them you have to have them? Thank you so much it is much appreciated😊 and I think I've watched one of your videos before did you just recently get married? You remind me of somebody she's around 27, and she just got married. I watched a video a while ago, and it was a lot of fun. I think it might've been you. Thank you again.❤

I don't like bad hair quality and when accesories and shoes easly fall of or they are easy to break. Loose heads or joints. Any problem with face paint.

[@dennyd2928]

bratz dolls have 3 quick joints its so weird to me you can litterelly push their legs outwards

[@DanielRodFer]

I believe the Monster High Garden Ghouls also have ball-jointed wings

[@xCanadensis]

They do! They just FALL OUT too easily so I didn’t even recall when I was talking about it aha

[@Dollsunified]

Hello, I hope that you are well. I was just wondering: who the two dolls are near the ELSA, frozen 2, doll and bigger my scene collection on the left? One has blonde hair and a blue dress, the other is purple. They seem rather unique, and I haven't seen any like them before; therefore, I just thought that I would ask! Thank you, kind regards :)

[@oceanaquarius9415]

That blue haired doll next to you is so pretty😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@xCanadensis]

There’s quite a few haha

[@magicwinxswitzerland]

We love to posing dolls because the articulation

[@lydianicolenorwick125]

Oh dang!!!! Are those dolls of the new She-Ra show characters?! I didn't know they made those!!!!

[@xCanadensis]

Yes!! They were pretty limited and only out for a little while back in… I think2019?

[@atgetc1013]

The doll with the pink outfit and wings with black hair looked sorta creepy ngl

[@oceanaquarius9415]

Also, I have been rewatching your Livestreams as if I were rereading old conversation

[@bigboi6278]

My sdcc Valentine monster high doll has slightly misprinted eyes lol 😭 tho miss print eyes don't bother me all that much since it's not that noticable so I'm glad regret saving up 130$ in middle school lol

[@Ki55yface]

Lmfaooooo. I loved the disclaimer! 👏🏼💖

[@mateocapote8447]

One day I was bored, and I cut a dolls leg with click knee and the armature was really interesting

[@thefairybear8369]

I love these type of videossss!!! 💕

[@slytheringingerwitch]

I love videos like this, please do more. :)

[@streamingsisters8966]

Love these videos I just fix my dolls hair and listen it’s like talking to a friend

[@elinefrit]

Ground rules: Don't be weird :D Yeap, please people! :D

[@thomass2136]

I bought an out of box forbitten love draculaura and the eye screening was so horrible that I put her outfit on a different drac doll and put the old one in a drawer🙃

[@magicwinxswitzerland]

Are these dollstand also in transparent?

[@יעקבמארלי]

Can we get a part 2? Pretty please ?

[@LePezzy66]

So what is your top 10 doll list?? I want to know! I mean, I get it's hard, so make your own rules I'd say haha. But I'd really love a video about that! (Or you could do multiple! One with individual dolls from your collection, or one with doll lines specific. Or one with same dolls from different series?)

[@xCanadensis]

I honestly do not think I could manage to narrow it down satisfactorily. I did a video like that in 2014 when I had less than 100 dolls (probably) and I couldn't narrow it down or put them in order bahaha. I would probably just do "some of my favorite dolls" or something

[@LePezzy66]

@@xCanadensis Completly understandble haha! Althought I would enjoy any doll ranking video. But you channel is awesome anyway, keep doing what your doing!

[@StellaPrecious4499]

41:19 when u put the doll in the Sun with the wings they can turn in pink😂🧡🥰💖😘

[@victormachado3702]

I’ve seen the new MH dolls that some influencers received and it sucks bc most Frankie dolls were horribly misprinted, some Cladweens as well, Draculaura is looking the best in terms of printing. It sucks because even the PR dolls are misprinted now imagine how the dolls that regular people bought are gonna look 💀

[@myra0224]

I literally have a beach Frankie (or swim class, can't remember the name) who literally has two different eyes. The right one is a big stamp and the left one is those small, narrow one. It's so weird, how did they mess up so badly??

[@jaders0805]

the stands are good for nanana surprise dolls

[@xCanadensis]

Kaiser? Yeah I use those for them… or are you referring to saddle stands? Those do not work for them for me
