PART 1 IS HERE! Let me know which Monster High character is your favorite and which part of the video is your favorite! What's wild is everything in part 1 took place before Vidcon (Prior to July) so it's all super early and I'm in such a different place with both my collection and my life since then. Can't wait to dive into Part 2 with you all 💕 Thank you scary much for watching!

Cannot wait to see this. I have every single doll before the reboot. Yes, really. It was clearly an expensive obsession for a while but it helped me through some really hard emotional times. The Ghouls have their own room now hahahaha. It’s all ikea shelves and a lot are on display but honestly you’d need three rooms to get them all out! I salute the other crazy individuals who are doing this too - love the dedication!! 😂 ❤

This is soooo awesome to see! Great job on this documentary!!!

I remember watching the $10,000 monster high doll collection! It’s great to see how your collection has evolved since then ❤😊

Keep on doing your thing and don’t let anyone get you down. I think it’s awesome that you shared your story kind of behind the scenes about your collecting, and emotional journey.

This documentary was so informative! I had no idea that the doll community was this big! This channel, along with many others, have really revived my love for Monster High and many other doll lines. I was around maybe ten when I started getting told by my family that I was too old for dolls and stuff, but I still love fashion dolls. I’m sixteen now, and I want to start actually collecting again. My siblings may make fun of me for it, but I’m still in love with fashion dolls, so who cares what they think? I can’t thank you enough for all of your videos that have kickstarted my love for this franchise again.

I want to thank you for being so vulnerable, Clawdeena. My parents are disabled too and it was really difficult growing up. I found myself using dolls as an escape and I would watch your stop motion video to help me cope. You explaining a bit about your home life really connected with me and I’m so grateful for you

omg!!! Hextian!!!!!

Regardlless of the subject, I love seeing creators support and highlight other creators. That's the pinnacle of security and maturity.

I am so proud of your journey with doll collecting! I also am very happy you decided to be vulnerable in this. Most celebrities out there don't share these details and I am very grateful that you decided to share!

I can't wait! I've been looking forward to this for months!

I admit, your channel did actually help me learn about Monster High. I never got into it as a kid because as a lifelong horror fan I thought it would be sanitized and boring (ironically what the reboots ended up being), but now I realize how cool the story and characters really are! I regret it so much now, I absolutely could’ve used a series about it be different and freaky growing up queer and ND. Coincidentally, this was uploaded the same day I started my collection! The used Picnic Casket set I ordered for my birthday just came in as my very first MH dolls! I’m so sorry about everything you’ve had to endure, I wish the internet wasn’t such a toxic cesspool of people who think it’s cool to lack basic human decency. I wish the best for you and your family and all your cool doll friends!❤

I also lost my father last year and it was also one of the hardest things to go through, I'm sorry for your loss, I also just have my mom left and I understand, I'm new to your channel and I didn't know the doll community was so amazing I had to sell all my dolls a few yrs back when I got laid off work, it was the only way at the moment to pay of bills and be able to eat, I was able to keep some in box so those are precious to me as well, I'm glad I found your channel and thank you for being real, honest, you have a beautiful soul

I find it bizarre that strangers on the internet would demand that anybody send them things for free because they look like they have a lot of money. Me and my family have always been on the poorer side but I would never say something so greedy and thoughtless. You worked hard for your money and can spend it however you want. I love watching you collecting the dolls because I can live vicariously though you instead 😂 I only have one RH doll, Daphne Minton, and I love her. EDIT: Just reached the part about your family and I'm so proud of how strong you are. I can't believe there are still people out there that assume people with any level of fame or money can never have any problems. That's ridiculous. Your parents seem absolutely wonderful and they did such a good job in raising you ❤ I can only hope that you continue to find ways to be happy in this world.

This was awesome. I'm impressed at how engaging it is. Great job.

I gasped literally cause I guessed it right when they said lagoona was their favorite monster high. 😂 I just felt their bubbly energy

Thank you for sharing the vulnerable parts, it’s important for people to know their not alone 💜

I deeply regret getting rid of my in box dolls years ago but it’s reassuring that you’ve also sold some of your ghouls and you have similar feelings haha, love your channel sooo much and I’m clinging onto my two IB Power Ghouls Frankie and Toralei, will never sell !!

its so cool seeing how you shop and you can just name the exact doll release and what cloths theyre wearing Your brain is like an archive for MH

Girl period I LOVED this video, you said reality tv who? This is what us collectors need on television! Amazing video & purrfect editing as usual! Loves it!!!!!!!!!! 💕💕💕

I really appreciate you opening up about your parents & showing the reality of loving with disabilities, for those affected & their loved ones.

I'm happy for you that you are nearly complete with your MH collection :) You are such a sweet kind person, and I appreciate how you stand for treating others with respect and thoughtfulness, and that you truly want to see the best for everyone. Yes, I agree that the doll community should be more supportive of each other, and I hope with your example, that we will see it happen one day soon. Take care Sweetie

I feel this video tbh, although I can't collect all the monster high dolls of the past, I am trying to collect the haunt couture (all i need is clawdeen now) and some of the older dolls I can find! The damaged dolls I'be been trying to collect for doll repaints❤

I can’t wait 😭 I love watching other people do this and not feel crazy about having lots of mh dolls 💀

2:47 omg I literally had no idea you made that Sweet 1600 Stop Motion that was such a huge part of my childhood

Well speaking of it you actually got me into collecting monster high dolls this year. I have always been a fan of the brand since I was two that is what age I was when monster high came out and started watching the episodes on KZfaq and Nickelodeon.

I admire your dedication to get ALL the super expensive MH dolls cus GIRL, I can barely stomach buying one for $200 (which is actually pushing my limit), the only ones I’m willing to spend at the very least $300-$400 for is the original collector Draculaura and the SDCC Scarah

Loving this documentary so much!! Thanku for showing us everything that happens in the doll collecting community and being so open and vulnerable with us! I love u so much Clawdeena and appreciate u so much!!!! Lots of love 💓💓💓

Loved the video. Your collection is awesome. You're being brave to show your vulnerable side. I'm so looking forward to part 2. This documentary was a great idea.♥️♥️

i followed you way back in the day and ever since the G3 collection and the new movie my obsession with monster high is coming back. i’m so glad i found you channel again and am loving this series. you unboxing this dolls has unlocked memories.

Good for you to show how life happens around even something like this. That yes, even ghouls have human lives and struggles. Much love to you and your family 🖤

You’re the reason I started collecting Monster High too! I started with your MH series 3-4 years ago and I have been addicted ever since. Thanks, babe!

OMG... I can't wait to see part 2, this video was amazing and you are one of the reasons why I love monster high so much. Your channel has helped me so much especial towards the end of my high school year. Please don't stop making all the wonderful videos you have done!!!!

OMG!!! Mar you are so sweet! I am blown away! We have to meet someday

FINALLY! Been teasing this for awhile I was starting to worry you wouldn’t do it. Can’t wait!

Your Such A BEAUTIFUL Person Internally And Externally! It's Been Amazing Watching You Grow. Love You Clawdeena!!!!

I’ve missed your videos so much I’m so excited for the video thank you 🎉

Wow, this was intense! Thank you for being so open about your struggles and your family. I think the world could use a whole lot more empathy and kindness in it 💕

I've been a fan for a decade! Your vulnerability about your family has always inspired me, what you do is activism for disabled and chronically ill people like myself

My mom is disabled, so you speaking about your parents and your struggles with depression and anxiety really hit home for me. ❤️

Amazing video! Thank you so much for sharing. I wish I had doll collecting friends back when I collected, it looks so fun!! Never stop being who you are ❤️

Love you and your realness!! This is awesome. Can't wait for part 2 💕

I feel this cool collector vibez! ❤🎉

Yessss! Can’t wait to watch you love 🤍

15:22 they're playing Black mamba by aespa omg

Wow Matt. Your documentary is so Incredibly well made. I know it's part 1, but I loved that you cleverly combined pieces of your life into one story about accomplishing your Mission Impossible. This is good writing and directing. I loved how you made it personal by introducing your friends, and how you met and communicated with them. And I won’t lie, I cried at the end of the video. That was so touching and I can so relate. It reminded me of situations when I’d feel guilty about having the time of my life after receiving a phone call or having a discussion with my mom about stuff because it’s just sad and frustrating that the whole thing is helpless. I mean, you can’t do anything besides just being there, which is probably the most important thing anyway. Anyhow, I think you also wanted to show us the human side of you and I think you did just that brilliantly. I’m so happy with your content creation talent and I hope more people see the star you actually are 💕💕.

i love this documentary it was interesting and i am so sorry about your mom, i hope she get's better soon.

Thank you for being vulnerable. I appreciate people online who are genuine. I really love watching your videos (honestly my favorites are you and Elvira together.) 💗

Thanks for talking about yourself and connecting monster high to your story, I also have a personal connection with this saga and Im so proud of you❤

WookieWarrior23 were absolutely my favourite channel 😍 thank you for reminding me

been so excited for this series and i can’t wait for part two ❤️

OMG I use to love watch your videos when I was younger!! I’m so happy I found u again after so long!!!

I really enjoyed seeing all the boxed up monster high dolls. Very nostalgic

15:23 they were playing black mamba by Aespa which is one of my fav songs

I remember when I first discovered your channel back when you made stop motions for Monster High characters. It's so amazing to see you go from this fellow kid who made stop motions to big videos like this! Very inspiring and awesome to see you collect every Monster High doll ever made! Also damn, thrifting has been a life saver as a doll collector. I once found Clawdia for only $8 at a thrift store!

Already cant wait for part2!!! ❤️

Can I just say how much this documentary is making me A.) itching to get a new doll, B.) so excited for the 2023 releases coming, and C.) just in my feels about how I even got started rekindling my love for dolls as part of healing my inner child lol. I don’t have any MH from when I was a child, but lately my approach has been buying gently used ones of ebay and trying to breathe new life into them and idk, I think the thing I love most about the doll community is that it’s not just purists who only see value in collecting mint NIB things, but like, just a wide spectrum of people finding joy in these things and people hyping each other up like this. I love seeing your journey like this, clawdeena 💕 thank you for being such a force in the community and sharing what these dolls mean to you

10:46 that reboot Lagoona! 😂 So happy to see this, I can’t wait to see the next part! Thank you for living my dreams for me!! ❤❤ Also, I remember from your OG collection video that you have incomplete dolls in bins. Sell those before you sell any of your main collections. My heart broke when you said you had to sell then rebuy them for waaaay more 😢

OMG thank you so much for the MonsterHighChecklist plug! I am so excited people actually use it. That out of the way thank you so much for sharing your story. It hit some parts of my life and I'm so happy you have an outlet. Unfortunately a couple years ago my whole collection was stolen so it's nice to see you light up when talking about MH!

This documentary is PURE EXCELLENCE!!!! Can't wait for part two!!

i really feel that i know where did all that passion and inspiration omes from it was a long way to walk mostly hard but putting everything together is what make us who we are makes us perfect the way we supposed to be deeply in our hearts not as how we may look like in the outside you have my sincere love and respect and a couple of passionate tear drops amongat them

Me and my cousin grew up watching your stop motions 🤍 so happy to see how far you come. This video healed a part of my childhood. Always wanted to see you win 🙏🙏

“im building an army” slay honestly 🥹

Amazing documentary. It is all ways very wonderful and interesting to learn about all of the experiences behind the scenes of your shows and the passion that you, your friends and your family have for what they enjoy. I am so sorry about the struggles that you and your family have gone through, you are all so brave especially to share that openness. My deepest condolences for your father and best wishes to your wonderful mother, they are so proud of you for pushing through and for doing what you love. Keep up the amazing work of spreading joy and compassion with those who meet you and who get to enjoy the experiences and the scenarios that you and your friends make.

I'm so proud of you clawdeena and I can't wait for part 2! Keep your head up and stay positive ok. I love you queen 💜💜💜💜💜

WOW! So many dolls!😱 that is so awesome!! I wish you all the luck in the world that you will get every doll and finish your collection💖💖💖💖

I'm almost 50 & have been collecting dolls forever, this is the first I've heard of HeXtian :). Following now though! They def have content I'll love. Good luck on getting the missing dolls! This is such a great vid, love all your doll cosplays. So sorry about your dad and hope your mom is doing well. I am sorry you went through crappy things online when you were younger, some people are so messed up. But you have a lot of important things down, we don't know what's really going on in most people's lives and supporting others instead of trying to crush them. Many of us present happy and fine but we're not.🦄

I can't wait for part 2. This was edited so well and everything was so interesting!

Your such a big inspiration, I love that you never give up and please never do. ❤️ Life is tough and dolls are a great way to get away from the real world, and takes you to a world of happiness.

15:30 Black Mamba in the background >>>

Strangers demanding that you give away the dolls are the most entitled people I have ever heard speak, don't even pay attention babe. Loads of that you earned with your own money, or earned with your platform so either way they're YOURS. ♥Love your videos Clawdeena

I love you so much. I've watched you since i was pretty young and you always helped me be confident in myself

this is so good, i cant wait for part 2!!!

Clawdeena made me fall back in love with monster high again. I loved the series so much as kid, I would watch so many youtubers who would dress up as MH characters. Growing up I kind of lost touch with it. But as an adult I love it again and ever after high. Also love your documentary, I love seeing your growth and seeing you overcome things!

The quality sis! This was so much fun to watch and I can tell you put a lot of time and effort into and it has paid off!

Double commenting, can’t wait to watch all your other videos ❤ my own collection is small but so well- loved. Dolls are such a unique and healing hobby. Big love to you and everyone who helped bring us this documentary- on to part two!!

Love seeing a more personal side of you💚

Loved the Princess and the Pauper reference 😂

I have been waiting for this sence you mentioned it!!! I cant wait!!! LOVE u and love the ghouls!!💕🖤💗

15:31 you can hear black mamba by aespa playing in the bg

This was so good! I’m excited to see the next part

You are an amazing person and the way all your videos, makeup, outfits feels like high quality is just so pleasing thanks for everything

THE COLAB WE ALWAYS NEEDED

I just watched the whole thing. This was so doggone good. The production and editing is on point. Very interesting. Can’t wait for part 2.

Great work, the video is very professional quality. Thanks for sharing your doll collecting story. I look forward to part 2.

I just have to say u made me start watching/collecting monster high dolls, thank you

You actually got me collecting MH…. So wild. But it is very special to me. Your videos starting popping up. I would ignore them lol. And one random day, I clicked… and a new jesse was born lol. Thank you!! I had never even heard of them b4.

I wish as a child I listened to my dad and keep some dolls in the box because their worth so much 😭. However I did get alot of my Dolls at flea markets and was so happy I had excellent taste in exclusive dolls.

This was very well made documentary. Cant wait for part 2!

Omg your so amazing! ❤I adore watching your videos!

I can't believe I am just now seeing you channel!! You are much younger than me, but as a doll colletor, you're an inspiration! I am subbed as of now. Also, Draculara is my favorite ghoul!

This was so great!!!! ❤

not you making me cry during a doll collecting documentary?! damn, wasn't expecting that! lol This journey and your story are so interesting I'm so excited for the next part!

I love your videos, and how that you're informative and honest. I was ordering some monster high dolls from Amazon a while back. Two of them got their faces squashed when they arrived due to packaging issues. If a doll face gets squashed, get some boiling hot water and put the water in a glass jar. Make sure the water stays hot. Take the doll with the squashed face(take the head off if you can do it without damaging the doll) and submerge the head under the hot water. The hot water causes the plastic to soften so that the head can bounce back to it's original shape. Leave the head in the water for 3-5 minutes, then check if the head regained its original shape. Use a long stick like chopsticks to retrieve the head if the head was taken off from the body. If the head is still squashed, submerge it in the water again for another 3-5 minutes until it regains it's original shape. Then get a towel, empty the head of water and dry the hair. Let the doll sit until completely dry.

I'm a 22 yo french girl who also discovered monster high at 10-11 yo and started collecting them. I even owned a youtube channel at this time which I managed until 2015 but then I started being ashamed and scared people would find these videos and just closed the channel.. I do regret that today. I lost every memories of this period, every video, every unboxing, stop motion, playing stuff and other things.. And I do remember watching your channel a lot at this time too !! I started collecting monster high dolls again 1 year ago when I discovered my old dolls in a box hidden in my house! And for your mom, I totally feel your anxiousness of always being scared of what could happen. I lost my dad in 2016 and my mom is sick too, we don't know what could happen, because of her sickness she is aging faster than normal. Seeing you being so confident, so tough, so brave, so brightful gives me so much hopes and courage. Thank you for doing what yo do since all these years

You are a wonderful soul, and your light truly shines !❤️

Hey your the reason why I started collecting mh dolls again since I grew up with mh since I was 4 :D

Omg your gloves look like Luna Madison’s from Shadow High!! Also this feels like a documentary I love it lol

I cannot think of anyone more deserving of the SDCC B&W Frankie than Clawdeena ❤❤❤ the holy grail omg
