Ida Danzig but they’re so ugly

Kate Statt which is realistic, like bratz represent something, they’re diverse, and they aren’t all extremely beautiful like barbie. so little girls won’t compare themselves to the barbie dolls

@@katestatt I didn't see it. Barbie looked very akin to realism, but Bratz with their skinny body but huge heads and feet just seemed so cool. Their fashion game was next level compared to Barbie, even now imo. I really dont see how they're ugly. What do you see about Bratz that's ugly?

Sorry, but the facts are that although bratz were popular in the 2000s, barbie was still taking 60% of the doll market between 2000-2009, with my scene, bratz, american girl etc taking the remainder. I believe bratz only had 10% of the share. They were taking a lot of sales away from the barbie brand... but they did not beat barbie in the slightest. Barbie is the Regina George of the doll industry, and she murdered those skanks lol Like literally, bratz aren’t around because barbie was going to sue them, now they are buried under her floorboards.

@@xoxbbygirl1012 I agree but bratz looked way better than basic barbie

Then the sleeves would snap

Omg they were so hard

All of my polly pockets were barefoot and had like no sleeves 😔

when they would get stuck on the hands and feet

Yes.

When I was little I only liked Barbie dolls I didn’t care about the representation

mi faw was yamin too girl

Same same. Like omg I wasnt big on fashion dolls or human dolls much at all as a kid (I was a LPS kid) but I remember i saw this Sasha doll in this arcade machine in probably 2006 and i couldnt stop staring at her i thought she was so cool. And some how I lucked out and the arcade attendant unlocked the machine and just gave her to me. And even if I hardly played with her I remmebrr always thinking "we look the same that's so cool!"

samee, i loved yasmin

I’m only quarter Mexican and I always thought Yasmin was the prettiest!

Same

I used to be obsessed with the cartoon it seemed interesting😭😭

Yeah I though they were game characters and I was obsessed with that room makeover game.

Luckily i had 3 of them.

I had one with the hair diamond thing. I lost all of my little diamonds and the pen broke I have the doll to this day though

The flashbacks when she showed the website hit me, polly pocket too

yes and polly pocket

The 100th like. ♡

Same I had mostly barbies and I loved other doll brands like myscene online games throughout my younger years growing up every web series was so fun to watch

I love the Diva Starz website, it had these episodic games that were sooooo fun to play. They took it down once they took the dolls off the market, I remember going to my favourite website one day and bring heartbroken that it wasn't there anymore 😢

We put three polly pockets in my dad's birthday cake one year. kinda mimicking those cakes that have a Barbie-like doll in the middle and the cake is the dress. My sister and I thought those were so cool. So I'd add singed Polly Pockets to the list too bc we burnt ours. XD

Sometimes they also would randomly snap when you tried putting them on or removing them.

Your comment just brought back such distinct memories 😆 wow

OMG yes, I forgot all about the rubbery clothes and she brought it up I remember I used to chew them😂

The purple dress/boots hit different 😤😤😂😂

:(

Monster High is nostalgic especially its theme song), but it’s from the 2010s, not the 2000s.

🤣🤣🤣

BIONICLES REDEFINED FASHION

I would love a 2010s remake with Monster High, LOL and more.

Lucky

You were smart, I gave away my dolls and accessories and I regret it so much now 😭😭😭

Lucky u the only bratz doll I could get was baby yasmin

My mom still lets me watch my remaining monster high movies, she said "because i could watch them, they were meant for my current age anyways"

You're so lucky 😭😭

I never got out of my Dress Up games phase. Im 20 and play a Chinese dress-up app and I live on Sims 3 bc of their Create a Sim option

Haha same!

Weird. So many of us had such similar childhoods

Dude my childhood is flooding back to me and I lOvE iT- (STORY TIME! I always played fashion games and enjoyed mixing and matching until I made a outfit deemed acceptable to my kid brain, I played this one fashion game for its music. I can’t remember much since I’m oLd but the music made me feel like edna mode, it was THAT GOOD-)

Dress up who . Com was my shiiiiit for sooo long

@Barbz Fan why

@Barbz Fan oh funny cause barbie was the same as bratz dolls but except not as badass as them

I remember buying my first Sasha and my grandparents being so pissed that I wanted a black doll. 😒🙄

exactly and i was so happy when they made sasha black

AliceWatches Stuff they still are. It sucks.

THAT PART

Yes!! I loved that bratz had a Latina doll. I was obsessed with yasmin 💕 then my bestfriend had her Sasha dolls. We loved it because there was finally that representation 🙌🏼

It's a shame that, even today, women cannot be beautiful, clever and driven. I'm neither but GO, BARBIE, GO!!!

I agree 100%. People were so concerned about her body proportions that they missed all the other great things about her. Barbie was president for goodness sake.

YES!!!

I so agree! There's this whole movement to boycott Barbie because she represents unrealistic proportions for women. Let me tell you, as a kid I didn't care about the shape of her waist, I just liked playing with a pretty doll who had awesome clothes and could do any career she wanted.

sims2lovealot there’s still a movement? they adjusted her proportions decades ago to fit a normal woman irl and on top of that made barbies of various body types smh

Yesss I had so many bratz 😭👸

I had a purple bratz TV and a ton of the movies 😭✋

And boys.

Too bad I was not born at that time

My nana got me some but my holy mother threw them out 😭

I can’t relate my friend and I played with our American girl dolls everywhere I was going to keep them but after years of falling out of trees they look a little yikes 😬

My rich friend had ALL of them and one time she knocked over her Josephina doll and its ear melted off from her radiator...it wasn’t “perfect” anymore so her parents got her a new one and she gave the damaged one to me. I took it with me EVERYWHERE until i grew out of playing with dolls, I still have it too!

@@myettechase What do you mean Josefina’s ear melted off?

@@tundra-bun she fell against the radiator and landed so that her ear was on the hottest part...it melted into a weird little nub

Yeah. My sisters friend had a birthday party revolving around American Girl dolls. My sister felt like she had to get one and told our parents. Funny enough though, she ended up getting a Cabbage Patch Kids doll 😂 My dad didn’t mean to get it for her but thought that was an American Girl Doll. Needless to say that party was awkward for my sister who couldn’t do anything with her doll while everyone was styling their American Girl Dolls. And my parents ended up buying the right ones :/

Same I’m 19 and still watch the bratz rock angels all the time

20 here and I watch them a lot

Eyyy same here

I’ve been trying to watch the movies but I can’t find anything online

I'm 20 and i still do 💀🤣

Same, I would take small breaks, huffing puffing, trying to put those rubber chewable clothes on. I would even ask my mom for help when it got to tough I would be so happy if got them on or off. I also grew up on Bratz, Polly Pocket, Monster High, Alexander Dolls, American Girl but never bought them cause there were expensive. Of a course barbie that's on the period with movies. And the Winx club, which I mainly grew up on the show, not the dolls. But, I kind of makes feel bad that the children of today will never get ever the golden age of our childhood. With great tv shows, movies, toys, video games, that had the balls to teach us about serious real world topics. And some trends, or things we did as kids. Like for example, if you were having a B-Day party all you need was the three pink cardboard Vallina, Chocolate, Strawberry flavor ice cream, cups, plates, utensils, & something else I forgot about. 💯🎈

ikr, i kept breaking the thin sleeve straps.

Then you put a ponytail in their hair with a scrunchie/hair tie that's too heavy and it makes their head snap back...lol

The shoes were hell for me

They used to rip WAY too easily. I remember being afraid to disrobe the polly pockets of my friends because of the high risk that I would rip a seam or something. I wasn't about to mess up somebody else's property at age 7 😅

Cheese Crust take2 yes!!!!

Especially hating the urban style and “big lips” saying it’s too sexualised makes me 🧐.

@Cheese Crust take2 lmao mga sue Mattel for copying but the man who created the Bratz was working at mattel when he created the Bratz and when they refused to make the doll he went on and make them with mga. So they sued and ended up getting sued 😂😂😂

Artoria Pendragon I never said lips were a style. I was referring to the type of clothes they wear; (2000s) streetwear/exaggerated versions of what was popular to be specific. Never once did I state that.

Glowing Karma big lips being too sexual is basically saying most African Americans are sexual

That's all I could think of at the American doll part😭

i was surprised/disapointed she didnt put that as the intro to the american girl section as oposed to ALL the jingles she compilated for the other dolls

Yes Barbie!

OOOHHHHHH So that's what she said!

Since I have 4 American Girl dolls, I reference this vine A LOT

Yes they were jealous about their creativity

rainbow jealousy is another thing!

This is why I don't like Mattel those were my favorite dolls now I have to buy them on eBay and Amazon this sucks and didn't she copied them I mean wow Mattel you copy them then you sue them

with mga, specifically. they try so bad to be as good as mga but the difference, is that mattel just knows how to sell plastic cheap made dolls and sell em for 30 bucks. mga is iconic and pure quality.

Yes, they made it so obvious too

I remember I was apart of girl scouts back in 2012 and I always thought of how badly I wanted a liv doll (particularly the one with curly amber hair and green eyes) but I never got it :(

I had totally forgotten about the LIV dolls ~I was obsessed with them! I had all their names, quirks & individual stories memorized.. oh goodness I miss them! I'm so sad she didn't like them

sameee daniella is still my favorite doll 😭

I thought the LIV dolls were great and I loved the hair, but I am a parent and they weren't as popular with my girls. I don't know why!!

I only had one but she was one of my most _favorite_ dolls as a kid! My parents let me pick her out when I was sad that my siblings went to summer camp. It was pleasantly out of character for them, since we usually didn't have enough money to get big stuff outside of birthday/Christmas. She came with a guitar, song writing book, and killer knee high boots 😆

tbh? same

Regina George is typing... Heather Chandler is typing harder...

@@toffeeofthesnails XD

I thought Yasmin was kinda the main-ish character in Bratz

yes unfortunately

Ocean Blue In the commercials, once Yasmin appeared her name would be called out first (or cloe’s). Jade or Sasha would always be third or fourth (usually Sasha third and Jade fourth)

Uhhh the doll lines you can find on shelves at the moment are: LOL Surprise/LOL OMG (by far the biggest one right now, I'm sure you have heard of it) Hairdorables (the main selling point is super long high quality hair) Snapstars (Similar to LIV in appearance, their gimmick is they come with a greenscreen so you can put them in different scenes with the app) Rainbow Surprise (Larger than a typical fashion doll, their gimmick is they come with slime that you make and add to their fashions) Rainbow High. (not yet yet but very soon. Basically smaller, color-themed versions of Rainbow Surprise) Wild Hearts Crew (exclusive to walmart. With sort of vintage fashions) Fresh Dolls (A smaller company that makes black dolls specifically to add more diversity. Unfortunately hard to find unless you live in a really racially diverse area) Creatable world (Androgynous looking dolls that you can dress to look like either a boy or a girl) BTS dolls (dolls that are modeled after members of the kpop group BTS) Project MC2 (dolls that come with a science experiment. The line is meant to encourage girls to get into the STEM field) Capsule Chix (Little dolls that look like robots. Kind of like Betty Spaghetti in that the clothes are actual body parts you sort of frankenstein together) Barbie (Of course. Although the most diverse brand at the moment, it's unfortunately much lower quality than it used to be). Na Na Na Surprise (Dolls that sort of look plush but actually have solid interiors and are somewhat posable) Cave Club (probably the newest doll line on this list. Fashion dolls that are basically stone age/cave people) Equestria girls (basically humanized versions of the my little pony characters) Boxy Girls (Dolls known for having square, box-shaped heads. Probably the cheapest doll on this list) Polly Pocket (they went back to what they used to do where she is super tiny and comes with a pocket-sized playset) Lotta looks (Basically a fashion doll that works like a Mr. Potato head) Candylocks Surprise (a doll that is hidden in long long hair that you unravel) So, SO many disney princess dolls. As you can see there are actually a lot of dolls right now

@@purplehorseneigh yess we have an educated shister

@@purplehorseneigh Damn, you know your shit.

Lol omg are amazing quality and very aesthetically leading but unforgivably are made my mga which is founded by a racist. Mattel’s Creatable world and new cave-girl dolls are very fun and also high in quality. Barbie has dipped in quality but upped in visuals and diversity and is still number 1

Those shopkins and LOL dolls. My cousin and her friends LOVE them

There are new limited edition Bratz available in stores, at least here in Australia. Was so tempted to buy one!

you could still buy them. at thrift stores, online on amazon but you find better stuff on ebay.

Definitely check out Mercari, local FB Marketplace, and Ebay before Amazon. But the 2018 Collector Bratz are still in stock on Amazon.

Definitely check the Facebook marketplace. I scored 200 MH, Bratz, Winx, and more for $1 each!

my mom wouldn’t let me have the for the fear that i would come to dress slutty when i grew up. well me getting my clothing ideas from BRATZ didn’t work out the way she wanted did it?

And the Royal Diaries. I still read those!

Yes to both of these

Felicity and Elizabeth's books were always a favorite for me. The iconicism

YES I still have all of my american girl things. It literally defined my childhood

Samantha was my favorite.

i had samantha, mary ellen, and i had the girl of the year grace from 2015 because she looked just like me and i loved paris stuff

To me there really is something special about them. I had other 18 inch dolls and have seen others yet. None of them were made with the quality of AG, specifically the hair. I even had a MyTwin doll and her hair got terrible so fast. If taken care of the hair is super amazing and styles so well. Definitely different than most doll hair. It’s high quality enough to be heirloom, and I still have most of my stuff tucked away for future kids.

Saying big lips is sexualizing is kinda racist

Am I the only one who just didn’t have dolls growing up? I had lps and my little pony lol-

@@katiebayliss9887 it rlly isn't

xX-amy-Xx ??? Unless you’re saying it to a black girl

Ya same. My mom always thought that was stupid that the name of the doll was getting backlash. She would just tell me "This is a doll, you don't have to act like it." And at 8 years old, I wasnt really thinking to myself "I'm so sad because I don't look like her!" I would usually think "Maybe I'll get to dress like her when I'm older! But for now I'll just play with this doll, " sheesh. Stop reading so far into toys!

Gurl you said that soooo right

For real

*are

Yess they were my favorite thing as a kid

Exactlyy like to this day i still watch the bratz movies and episodes

Omg you just unlocked a memory I didnt know I had 😭 I remember being obssessed with bratzillas and religiously watched their webisodes cuz they were more like the edgy and spooky versions of bratz i just loved them!

@@dyxtopia6775 same, i loved them!

I remember novistars, they were kind of ugly

@@sademptytown22 lolll true

The way this comment just punched me in the face

This comment just screams Gay rights!

Me too! I would always tell the salesperson that I'm gifting the doll to my sister. I'm so glad I grew out of my doll phase

Awwww🥺💞

it’s ok 😭

Same

;-;

I had some of them and I watched a bit of the web show, they were iconic.

same ☹️

No that’s just the pattern of fashion history. In the 2030’s the 2010’s fashions will be back in style.

Lol my friends name is Yazmin

Girl same lol I I identified with her so much

I'm from Pakistan and was also obsessed with Yasmin

I remember I used to think that Yasmin was lightskinned 😭😂

Jasmine K she’s Mexican watch the live action movies

Everytime i watch that movie i just laugh thinking of how badly it aged💀💀

Lucky 🍀 I miss that movie.

Lifeasweknowit. * it’s weird because it aged badly but it’s still iconic in my mind so like I can’t decide how I feel about it

Masquerade Madness was the shit.

The music in that movie kinda snapped

We are the same age but you should still play with them it's fun

@@taylordampier i've actually been buying some more and i do want to play with them so bad sjsjsj

@@r666sie so do it no one will judge and if they do fuck em

YES!!! myscene and polly pocket just hit different. hell even the barbie games.

I still play the my scene games when I'm bored

I used to love the Barbie website until it changed lol

It was the beginning of inclusivity!

Danielaaa gil facts, I still have the dvds

I still got my bratz dolls and I'm 19 . Lol

YESSS ME TOO ♥️

yes bratz was so awesome back then!! and omg the playsation games were literally the bomb!! i remember boyish boys would play that game too ahh good times

ikr true

Me too . I'm 19 and I still have my bratz dolls and movies hidden in a box .

Did anyone play the game on the PS2? I did and it was fun! :)

@@araceliynaxi650 omggg yess the bratz forever diamondz and rock angelz PS2 games, those were literally my life.

@@araceliynaxi650 yep but then i accidentally tripped over the cords so the ps2 broke and i couldn't play the game again :(

the only memory of polly pockets I have is chewing on all the clothes and slowly losing all of the accessories until I'm just left with the dollhouse😭

I had the Polly Pocket limo set and I loved it

I had the polly pocket suitcase doll house XD

my mom kept all of our fashion polly shoes in a bag and would only give us each one pair at a time to play with lol

I had the one that can be stick on the wall mall. Technically it was my sister, but we shared. The shoes will always go missing, and I couldn't stick it on the wall.

Same here! And I'm 29 💕

You here

The jeans were a nightmare but I just had to give all my Bratz them

Agreed

My first Bratz doll had like orange jeans and a crop top but like the first time I took of the jeans was like in 2014 and then I was 6 and I got the doll when I was like 2 or smth

I HATED JT OMG I LITERALLY GOT RID OF THEM BECAUSW OF THAT HAH

gob ghostwrote this

What was the mistake? 👀 We won't judge Queen

Ever after high dolls

No hate or anything tho lol

I'm one of them 😂

Guilty! 😌

i miss them 💔

My favorite was princess and the pauper with Barbie

I remember playing on the American Girl website all the time as a kid

Same! Bratz proportions were just off and Barbie was not at exciting. Myscene was everything!

Ooof, same. I played all the Flash games with my sisters. I tried looking for them last year, but they're mostly defunct now.

Yes!

My first doll was a myscene doll. Lovely doll

The original Monster High dolls looked like MyScene

I just could lend my hands on a bratz baby doll...

Awww I couldn't get bratz bc I was a boy😩

My mom didn't like their giant heads but then someone gifted me a Bratz and later mother started liking the fashion of Bratz dolls

I was one of the few one whose moms didn't have a problem with Bratz. In fact, my mom once admitted that she liked Bratz's fashion and clothes more than Barbie's.

@@Mazou-tj4ne I never liked Barbie fashion. Imagine wearing same clothes but in real life? Would just look hilarious. Except when the dolls were princesses or fairies, those were awesome and using lots "millennial pink" instead of very bright hot pink. However when MyScene were launched, their fashion was the most realistic and attention to details was much better than Bratz. But Bratz were the original

Linlee1000 SAME

Ditto

Yuppp

Omg yesss and the movies!

I KNOW I KNOW

💙

They started that actually because Mattel bought American Girl in the late 90's.

Not gonna lie, got the Samantha doll because I couldn't get both a historical doll and a Look Like Me doll, so I got the historical doll that looked most like me (actual fave historical girl at that time was Josephina).

wilde child, kinda same, my mom got me "emily" cause she had the same name as me and same hair color, so i thought she looked kinda like me (now that i look back i look nothing like her-)

That and the girl of the year line after 2005

@Khamilla Lopes Those are the ones I got

I also just realized that the Bratzillaz dolls were a pathetic copy of Monster High dolls

I kinda noticed it, but didn’t think too much

I kinda noticed it, but didn’t think too much

I’ve been obsessed with them since I was a kid lol. Always loved the fashion and everything that came along with it

omg winx club 😭💕

i love winx club so much.

indie flop queen yes but sadly they’ve replaced poc characters with white actresses :/

@@kenztte i knowww omg. :( i was so disappointed 2 see that. how could they get diversity so right in 2004 and so wrong in 2020? i'm holding on 2 hope that flora will make an appearance in the future (rumor has it terra, a white character, is her replacement). as for musa, her actress is supposedly part singaporean which is better than no asian at all i guess :/

The Winx Club transformations were ICONIC. I loved the Sirenix song so much.

ikr they were so god damn hard to put on

fr

I remember just chewing on them

Looking back this is so disgusting, but my sister and I would just spit into them and they'd slide right on

I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING. It was the OPPOSITE of easy

it's honestly just 2000s fashion but because nostalgia is at its most prominent now it's become its own aesthetic. so yes they technically do hold up

There's this book I read (I'm not going to name it because I don't recommend it) which talked at length about the impact of Barbie in setting beauty standards and fashion trends in women who grew up playing with them (it was written in the mid 2000s) so it would make sense that now the generation that grew up playing bratz would also be heavily influenced by the dolls

I’ve always wanted bratz dolls since I was a kid and I even watched all their movies and tv shows but I never got any so I had to stop myself from thirsting too hard for them. Y’all think I should buy a bratz dolls as a figurine?

If you wanna see this in practice, you should watch Safiya Nygaard's video! She put together the outfits of 3-4 of the original Bratz dolls to see how they compared to modern fashion and its AMAZING.

Rubaba Rehman Absolutely! It’s never too late to start collecting again!

The whole budget went to the hair animation 💀🤣🤣🤣

I FEEL BAD 4 U!!!

I always thought they were EHH and seeing how they were made in response and pretty much to copy Bratz makes me think ehhhh even more.

I definitely preferred my scene over brat something about the brat face just kind of creeped me out as a kid. however I was totally fine with monster high and still love them to death Go figure kid brain 🧠🤪

I had the black doll from the splashy chic collection and it was my favorite doll ever! They were stunning, to the point were i was happy just letting her sit and awe at how pretty she was!

I know like she said they were more mature that’s why I’ve always love them

Perioddd

same

I know. I was always a Barbie girl and hated when I got Bratz dolls. Now I look back and wish I had asked for them instead of Barbies. 😔 Maybe I would’ve had a better fashion sense if I had gotten bratz

Same!

Bratz dolls always felt like they were the kind of dolls for kids whose parents had lots of money.

Heck yeah.

i had those as a kid and i literally threw it out my window and burried later on i remembered what i did and i tried to dig the doll up and suprise suprise she was still there

Lol WHY did you do that 😂😂😂

I know for sure that if Monster High dolls existed when I was little, they'd be most of the doll population in my toy box😂 They're spunky like bratz but a litte darker :) The movies are why I love them, though!

ollDeadfishllo the movies and webisodes are so good!!! I watched them as a late teen and adult lmao 😂

I died a little inside, when one day out of the blue (as an adult) I wanted to go on the website to play the decorate your room game on there but realized the website was dead. I miss that website so much. 😢
