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.

I just want princess and the pauper quality dolls though

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

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!

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 ☹️.

The Lenore doll in the Monster High set is inspired by a character in Edgar Allan Poe’s poem The Raven. 11:06

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

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.

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 💕

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

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!)

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.

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.

Wait, I want a toast purse!

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

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 👏

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!

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.

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 😂

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.

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

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!

💖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! 🤪

The black cat is Catty Noir the pop singer!

you have a great week as well Joey, always a pleasure to see what you share with us!

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

You’ll be happy to know the original wave on the Creep Production dolls are coming to the UK :) sold in Smyths Toys expected to be in stock at the end of May 😊

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 💖

Joey, Your videos always make me smile. In my opinion, you're 100% correct about the reveal dolls and the painted permanent plastic "phashion" (😉😉) pieces. The new black Barbie is a beautiful tribute doll. I find her more closely styled to another doll from the 70's, the "Christie Love" doll. She was based on the character from the 70's TV show "Get, Christie Love." The character was a police detective in the drama series. Love you, Joey. 😊 You are an absolutely informative and entertaining doll of a person. I could hang out with you and your dolls all day long. "Do you want to have a beach party?" ✌️💗🫂

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

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….

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

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. 🎉

Just bought the new Barbie “Styled By Design” high fashion doll and LOVE it! Stunning doll with old-fashioned Mattel quality (real jewelry! fabric boots!). Also the new Looks dolls are quite nice.

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

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.

oh yay for the Chelsea removable clothing!!!!

🎶Somewhat Hair Barbieeee🎶

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

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

I unironically love the toast bag. lol I would carry that around if I liked purses.

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

When it comes to the Pixlings, I only did the reveal thing once, to see what all it entailed, and then after that, I just remove all the packaging without playing along. I keep the potion bottle to use as a display case for the doll. The big clear elastics I save to use at some other time (I'm also the kind of person who saves rubber bands and twist ties 'just in case' I end up needing them later). It's not great, and I do wish there was an option that didn't have so much packaging! But the dolls are so cute...

I really love all the Barbie,Monster high and Disney dolls.

LOVE your channel! as always lots of love from brazil

I loooooove opretta so much she was my favorite g1

Hope your Easter was nice

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

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

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

I caved and bought the Lenore Loomington Doll because she is giving straight Haunted Mansion energy and I just think she is such a vibe.

Hi Joey cool latest dolls thank you for sharing

Thank you for keeping it real and for covering so many of the doll lines!! I really appreciate you taking time to put this together so we can get all the dirt on these babes. I'm over-excited about the 2024 Monster High doll line - it's taking over my collection! Love you and your great content! Usually watch on TV so dont comment.

Those barbie bestest remind me of every after high dolls they like very beautiful awesome amazing dolls thank you for sharing this video channel

Failfix was made by Moose Toys similar to Magic Mixies Pixlings. The LUV dolls are made by Far Out Toys which made Glo Up Girls.

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

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

And we love hearing your opinions! ❤

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

Ahhhh those new Pixlings look adorable! Especially the one at the end on the right. (Is she a bear? 🐻) I agree the reveal thing is unnecessary, you just end up with so much useless plastic. I tried it the first two times, now I just throw the “potions” right in the trash. 😅 (I keep the little paper pieces and paste them into a scrapbook, though)

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

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

I cant wait to see the Barbie Signature Batman 85th Anniversary Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy dolls!

The Barbie Besties doll/face molds are super cute. Something about their proportions just hits right to me. Plus, although it is obvious that Mattel is simply trying to keep up with trends with this line, they're doing a good job of it. All of these dolls look original compared to other lines and they're clearly at increased quality compared to main line Barbie. I'm excited for them! Also, Chelsea looks like one of my childhood Barbies whose head I accidentally popped off and had to stick back on 😂

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😊

I think jakks is doing really well with the licenses, they have a good balance between quality and affordability

Fab Girl Barbie did the magazine concept so much better than LUV because Barbie actually had a second outfit and accessories in the box, and it was actually shaped like a rectangular magazine so it didnt look so empty

I also like Barbie's dream closet. 😊❤❤❤❤

omg that monster high car!! lots of MH stuff to look forward to! and curious about barbie dream besties

Love the Encanto family.

Yes!

That Belle is horrendous. Excited for the new Twyla.

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

The Eekender set is so cute!! ❤

What I like.. The Teresa Doll in red. Silkstone Skipper, blue hair monster High repro, operetta monster high,

Thank you for these new videos~!

Love you Joey!!! ❤️❤️

"It's not totally hair, it's somewhat hair" 😂

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.

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.

13:39 this feels like true monster high again to me. This feels like the kind of themed set I would've loved as a kid, similar to casta and the spells.

I love barbie in her sisters set I'm going to get them at Walmart soon

I don’t understand the new Totally with short hair

Not excited about the Barbie dolls but I am interested in the megapack of Encanto. 🎉❤

The first creeproduction came out but unfortunate for me it didn't come out in any store I could get to. They said in Walmart and my two Walmarts didn't have them at all. I said gas cost to much for me to go hunting for them or buying them from scalpers. So I didn't get any. I wonder are they going to do select stores again? They would get so much more money if they put some in each wally and targ.

if i showed my mom that disney is making more encanto dolls, she'd prob freak out lol i kinda freaked out too when i saw them lol

I think its Lenore
