I will never forget the day when my cousin gave me her entire Bratz collection. I was so freaking happy when I was a little girl

*Sad Story* I was allowed to have Bratz dolls. However, my mother was a single parent and didn’t have much money. I’ve gotten 10 Bratz and 2 monster high dolls when I was little , however my mother had a tumor on her brain and had fell behind on bills because she was sick. Soon she was hit with an eviction letter, only having 24 hours to move. I had to throw away a couple of my Bratz dolls while some went to the storage unit. After a while, my mom couldn’t afford the unit anymore, so she had to let it go. It was 2013, so it was around the time Bratz was going to be discontinuing. But when the Bratz came back in 2015, my mom and I were living in an apartment and she could afford dolls. My mom and I are now in a 2 bedroom house and started collecting dolls again! I’m a bit scared of telling my friends because I don’t want them to think I’m werid. Anyways! I’m m so excited for the Bratz to comeback! I don’t have much dolls but I’m trying my best to collect The Bratz stood out to me because I’m I can see black representation that wasn’t stereotypical, I can see my self in Sasha! Plus she’s a beautiful,

"In many ways, we have the success of Bratz to thank for Monster High." 👏👏👏 Exactly! Thank you for giving Bratz the credit that they deserve!

not a “bratz free home” but more of a “boys don’t play with dolls home” so i was never allowed to get a bratz as a kid (or any doll) even though i really loved them, i’m actually 20 rn and i will definitely get them

Bratz make up is literally what the beauty gurus do in all their videos. Also, the Chloe doll kind of looks like if one of the tweevils had a Taylor swift fashion moment.

I can’t wait to get my hands on Ms Yasmin she is so pretty

My mom was overall "doll free" when I was a kid besides any Barbie that was a ballerina. I always wanted Bratz and My Scene and Monster high but was NEVER allowed. When I was 13 I begged my mom to let me get monster high dolls and the flood gates opened. I've been collecting for five years on and off but never while Bratz were active. This channel was what really got me into dolls circa 2013 (The Pinkie Pie first Equestria Girls doll was the first video I saw). Now I have an extensive Rainbow High/ LOL OMG/NaNaNa Surprise collection. I can't wait to get these dolls and finally live out my childhood dreams!

lmaoooo if mattel was to received the sketch and made it to production, we *will* be getting a doll line called Cloe & Friends back then

Serious me: I can’t afford these dolls I better not watch this video Also me: I have to watch this video 😂❤️

I remember when it felt like all fashion dolls were basically all "barbie" (either actual or knock off but looked extremely similar). Or atleast thats what it felt like to the childhood me. Lol

I was instead of “bratz free” i was in a home that allowed both bratz and myscene dolls. funny thing is, i like both franchises and could tell the difference between the two. Bratz was street style, myscene was glam and glitter. Bratz were curvy and short, myscenes were tall and slim. I loved them both and was sad when myscene was gone. But i do know of house holds who were anti bratz and i was sad when i heard that they didn’t like bratz cuz at the time, i couldn’t understand why. But now i can enjoy any doll franchise i want so YAY!

Cloe and Yasmin appeared in over 180 lines while Jade and Sasha appeared in roughly 100.

They're so beautiful..My first edition Yasmin was gifted to me by an older friend when I was nine (she had got it for a birthday but was in her opinion "too old for dolls"). She recently passed away suddenly (almost 20 years later) and I'm 100% going to be getting this special rerelease of Yasmin as a way to remember my friend. Very special to me.

Im 17 and now LOVE them!! I used to not understand the fashion and appeal either, but now I understand and appreciate it too!

Back in 2005 after getting my first swimmers certificate, my mom surprised me with the Jade doll. Bratz had only released their first wave at the time, but from that moment on I was hooked! I loved how this doll actually looked different from all the other dolls that were out at the time, and they definitely influenced my personal style over the years! I will never stop loving Bratz!

I really wanted the bratz dolls because they had such long hair and looked really cool, but my parents were totally against bratz dolls. So my grandmother got me a set of four off-brand bratz dolls as a loophole for my birthday!

I never had Bratz dolls as a kid, they came out in 2001 when I was 7/8 so I never got to enjoy them then but I will enjoy them now at 28 😂 ordered Yasmin & Jade.

The hair on Yasmin is gorgeous!

The parents who were so proudly ‘bratz free’ are absolutely the people who refuse to wear masks currently 🤮

I bought these for myself as a college student to relive my childhood. Bratz was a big thing for younger me and definitely influenced how i express myself with clothes ahaha

Love , love your videos and when people in my family make fun of me and think I'm crazy for liking dolls I simply tell them My World says its o.k. to like dolls at any age even at 54. Thanks to you I started up 3 years ago when i came across your channel. Thank you.

i was nearly 9 years old when i started loving Bratz (in 2003). my parents told me that i was getting too old for dolls and i remember begging to just have one and still nada... i had Bratz literally in everything ; except "the dolls.." and now im about to turn 28 and I'm still in LOVE with BRATZ (and pretty much dolls in general =D )and i will finally be able to have a set for myself and of the exact ones that were around when i was a kid - sooooooo CoOl!!! I cant wait to see them in store again

I feel so blessed to have such open parents I had a couple of bratz dolls along with my barbies my mom never made a big fuss about the bratz and growing up it saddened me hearing that other friends households were so conservative and close minded

Yasmin was my first bratz doll ever!! 💞

I definitely get what you mean linking Bratz to Monster High because while they obviously aren't directly responsible to each other - in the same way My Scene and Bratz are - it's Bratz success in general that has always forced mattel to push itself forward in time/representation. I remember reading articles about this from doll bloggers back in the early 2000s about how it was nice to see the minority characters be treated as equals instead of just dolls in color variants of whatever Barbie had. By making everyone important and different it forced mattel to push itself to do the same and as time has gone on that led to things from monster high to the vast array of skintones, body types and body representations that fashionista employs and in general the setting of a model standard that diversity can sell has only been a good thing. Now it's not just one shade of black girl or one standard asian ethnicity as a representative but all and everything in between. I have to squeeze them into my budget but definitely have earmarked at least Yasmin and Sasha from this wave to hopefully come home with me once they hit target and the like.

My dad said we were a “brats free home” but really just didn’t want to buy me any more dolls. And that is why I will be spending all my money on the new ones.

"This is a cutoff... PEASENT blouse" I DIED lmao 12:40

My Mom was/is one of those "proud to have a Bratz free home" moms and I wanted one sooo bad as a child, my aunt had to smuggle me a mini Bratz Jade and my mom was super mad at her lol. I just bought Jade and I love her so much! I finally have my first real Bratz doll at 23 years old and I want all of them now 😍😍😍

I only got the mini Bratz dolls and passed up the original sized ones when they first came out, so I am hoping for that second chance to get the full sized dolls!

Thank you so much for highlighting Yasmin's SWANA roots! I feel seen!

My parents were/are really conservative however i think they liked the fact the the dolls were different races so i ended up with bratz dolls, I think I was five but i loved them because i never had friends who were my age but i had a lot of friends who were older then me and loved sewing to fit in with the trends plus the dolls taugh me i didn't just have to be a "princess who waits for a prince to save her" I could be a Queen without waiting for anyone

I remember watching this channel back when kaden was on, after a while i stopped watching but I recently got recommended one of your color change barbie videos and it’s so amazing to watch you again. i’m graduating high school this week so it’s like a trip down memory lane watching you geek out over dolls. so glad to have been recommended your channel again and to see you’re still enjoying dolls

There was a time that I only collect Licca dolls (a Japanese doll with big cartoon eyes and small lips). Then I fell in love with MH, and I still collects them to this day. Only recently, I realized how beautiful Bratz are. Although I'm only gonna collect the new ones, I have high hopes MGA. lol

I love how you complemented brats for the right reasons! With out them monster high wouldn’t be a thing and it’s true! I love and still love brats!

Melissas makeup is giving trans pride vibes and I’m living for it,, damn I really mistook that green I must’ve just had trans flag on the brain

Yasmin will always have a special place in my heart. She was my first Bratz doll

I always loved the Bratz dolls but I only owned about 2 because I was around the age my family stopped buying me dolls, so I also missed the monster high and ever after high era which makes me so sad that I went through the ‘I grew out of dolls’ phrase

Can't say I'm a Bratz fan and I don't intend to buy any, but I totally agree that they were breakthrough dolls back then. I remember passing doll aisles at a large store in the early 2000s, and Bratz immediately caught my eye. I was amazed at how cool they were and how drastically they differed from an average pink and bland Barbie. And yeah, I remember the public outcry, and "Bratz-free homes" were a thing in my home country too! Which is so ridiculous, because now they do look very tame in comparison with the latest doll lines. Thank you for your thoughts Melissa, it's always such a pleasure to listen to you!

When I was a child me and my family didn’t have much money but me and my sister have very fond memories playing with my older cousins bratz! When she turned around 16/17 she gave them all to us, we were so excited to have so many fashion forward friends to play with! Then monster highs were released I was soooo excited about them and I begged my mum to buy me a monster high doll, I was coming up with scenarios where the bratz would get super shocked to come across monster and how they all came across their differences and became best friends. Hahahah good times 😌

As a little boy back then, I was so grateful that my parents supported me and let me collect and play with dolls, they never once questioned my choices and just went with it their reason is “whatever makes you happy is what’s important” and yes I AM DESPERATE TO GET THESE ON MY HANDS BUT I AM BROKE RN SO- not now bratz… srry

Rock angelz was my favorite collection. Bratz was my whole childhood 😭😭♥️

I never had Bratz as a kid, my family was strictly Team Barbie. Now I adore Bratz for all the reasons you’ve outlined in the previous video and this one. Thank you for not just showing the dolls but also sharing yourself with us :)

i cant wait to buy jade she’s so pretty😭 i only had a few bratz dolls as a kid as i was more of a monster high kid but seriously i was missing out. i love ur videos sm

been over a decade since i last had a bratz doll as a kid. ordered yasmin a couple of days ago and finally have her. so glad they aren’t limited edition!

I wasn’t allowed to collect bratz as a kid because my mom said they were inappropriate, but I loved playing with my friends’ bratz because the accessories were so realistic compared to Barbie. I remember the camping set specifically. I was a very girly child but I also realized that pink and purple everything wasn’t what objects looked like in the real world.

Jade was always my favorite bratz doll ! I love asian dolls !

This woman gives me wonderful vibes

I am sincerely in love with the makeup in this video.🤍

omg i love hearing about the Bratz from your perspective, it's so interesting compared to people my age who grew up with the dolls and have always loved them. i just love how MGA gave us ethnically diverse dolls but never made a huge deal about it lol like yeah, they're different and they're all friends, why not? :)

The two Bratz I had were always my favorite dolls as a kid. I/my family didn't have a lot of money so saving up my allowance to buy these was the best thing ever. Yasmin especially was my favorite bc it was a doll that kinda looked like me. I never found the barbies to be that diverse Back in the day. They started getting better when I was done with dolls. I kinda want this anniversary version!!! 🤔😎❤️

Happy pride month😀😁😂😃😄😀😁😂😃😄😀😁😂😃😄💫✨🌈🌈💫✨🌈🌈💫✨🌈🌈💫✨🌈🌈🏳‍🌈✨

Happy Pride Month!!!♥️🧡💛💚💙💜👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩🌈🌈🌈🏳️‍🌈

I always wanted Bratz dolls as a child but because my sister and I were raised in a single mother household we couldn’t afford to buy them. We did have a good amount of the cheaper lil Bratz dolls and were lucky to both have one Bratz doll each. I had Style it Yasmin and my twin sister had Style it Cloe. When I heard that they will be rereleased I was beyond excited. As a doll collector I cannot wait to get my hands on all the new Bratz dolls coming !

Love your videos and voice! I’m so glad I found your channel as a young adult! You inspire me! I how articulate you are in explaining your thoughts! 💜 Also as a member of the LGBTQ community I love how supportive you are!💜🌈 Also your eye makeup is beautiful!💜

Growing up I wasn’t allowed to have bratz because of their attitude and how hey were literally called brats, as my parents thought it would encourage bad behavior. When the mh website was released, my best friend and I were obsessed and would always watch the webisodes. I was terrified my mom wasn’t gonna approve of them. For my birthday that year, mh just came out and my friend got me the og draculaura. I talked with my mom and she was cool with mh. She bought me several dolls and encouraged it. When I tried getting rid of them several times, my mom recognized all they got me through and refused to let me donate them. When the 2015 bratz came out I had the money to buy them without anyone stopping me, and I loved them and took them everywhere with me. For my birthday, my mom even got me a whole bunch of fashion packs she found while traveling. I’m fortunate my mom was able to learn and change because dolls have taught me so much and I don’t know who I would be without them. They also helped me get through bullying and my mental health in middle school and some of high school, and even to this day they help me. I’m not sure I’d be alive if I didn’t have them and I love to share my knowledge with my parents even if they don’t really care about dolls! Side note: my moms rule wasn’t super reinforced because when I was little I loved baths and I always have loved mermaids and somone(I’m pretty sure it was her) got me this bratz babyz mermaid cove play set and I loved it so much! Edit: my birthday is in July so I’m gonna ask for them for my birthday!

I sold my entire collection to buy a PS2 😭 I’m definitely getting all the 20th anniversary dolls 🥺

You are making a very important point at the beginning of your video. I so agree with you. I hope every one has heard you... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Like other MGA dolls (and Monster High), Bratz was a source for clothes and playsets I loved. The dolls not so much. Them giant eyeballs freak me out!

I loved Bratz dolls so much when I was younger but for some reason my parents never let me get one so now I am so excited they are bringing them back!

We was in a Bratz Free Home. So I will buy them...totally.

jade has always been my favorite glad bratz are back

Gorgeous dolls 🌸

i wasn’t allowed dolls growing up, i recently bought the Cloe doll ❤️❤️❤️ my inner child is very happy

My child told me I wouldn't let them have Bratz. I said, "Wow, was I that much of a Karen?" And they told me, "No, it creeped you out that the feet came off." 😂

I collected bratz as a kid. I thought they were so cool.

Jade and yasmin are my 2 fav out of the original 4 bratz dolls, honestly I might get jade instead of yasmin lol

I’ve only ever had two Bratz, ‘cos I was just growing out of playing with dolls when they came out, but I’m still really fond of them. Might snag one or two of these as company for my Yasmin and Chloe. 🥰

100% i am the 20 year old that this is bringing nostalgia. i am trying to collect some now.

I wasn’t able to get Bratz because of their price. I grew to love Bratz and KZfaq definitely helped with my knowledge and obsession. I was able to get 2 dolls from the b-Bratz line since they were being sold at kiosk. I now thrift Bratz and have an ever growing collection. I’m excited to see and get all the new Bratz 20 anniversary dolls

I'm a 16 year old male and I wasnt allowed to have dolls periodt but I have love Bratz and dolls, I have to keep things secret.

I'm so excited for more Bratz dolls, my mom wasn't a fan of them as a kid but my aunt got me the Sasha British version and my mom was so bad because she didn't like Bratz but she let me keep it. That was my only Bratz doll ever

Growing up, Barbie was cute and I still enjoy watching her movies till this day, they bring a lot of nostalgia and comfort, but for the dolls, never owned one. Bratz always owned my heart, I always watched the tv show and new movies and played the games online on the website (don't get me started on their albums) and when I was finally allowed to choose and pay for my own doll (my family was pretty homophobic and had the mentality that boys should not have dolls and any chance of someone actually buying me one on their own free will was not likely) I was so happy and excited. These dolls have more meaning to me than any other toy I had because for once, I felt seen and they helped show that its okay to be different and to express myself passionately and freely. The minute I see them in the toy aisles, I'm getting a Sasha and Yasmin and I may cry a few happy tears for the younger me.

My parents let me watch Eyes Wide Shut and Showgirls endlessly in our living room when I was a young teen, so Bratz hardly scandalized them.

I’m the same age as bratz but my older sister passed her huge collection down too me and I continued collecting them I have so many good memories playing with them I really wish I kept them and looked after them well.

Потрясающие, красочные обзоры! Очень приятно смотреть) Спасибо!

I loved Bratz growing up! I have a couple movies, video games, but sadly no dolls because I had to move when i was younger so I lost all my collection. I look forward to buying them aaaaaa ouo/

I always wanted Bratz when I was little but my parents were too poor to buy me these dolls. The closest I got to Bratz was a $5 Myscene Doll and I loved her! I have all of the 20th anniversary Bratz dolls including Cameron!

My home wasn't a Bratz free zone, but my parents didn't have much money back then and I used to get the cheap knock-off versions of Barbie, I only had one or two original Barbie dolls that I got as a gift from someone else, so I would love to buy myself a Bratz doll now as an adult

I wasn't allowed to have Bratz because I was already 8 or 9 when they came around here, and I was "too old". I used to buy them at the bargain shop, hide them in a bush a block from my house and when my mom went to work, I hopped on my bike and ran out to rescue my dolls! I only got caught having dolls once 😂

I'm not an adult who wasn't allowed bratz dolls, but I am a 16 year old boy who wasn't allowed dolls in general so now I've been spending all my money from allowance onto dolls. I already bought Cloe online (no clue when she'll get here) and when the rest are released at Walmart, Target, and Amazon in July I'll hopefully get the rest.

Loving your pride nails

I want to try and get Jade. Wasn’t allowed to have them as a kid, but I always wanted a Jade. I now have a small Jade collection. I think I always loved Jade because she was one of the only Asian dolls you ever saw around the mid 2000s

i thankfully wasn’t from a bratz free household so i still had a few saved! i recently started watching you and you inspired me to take out some childhood dolls(i mostly collect porcelain ones these days) from my closet and have them on display with my other dolls now! they make me so happy and nostalgic to look at. thanks for having such a great channel ❤️

I am shook that MGA is doing this! These dolls are a HUGE part of my childhood and Jade was my absolute FAVORITE!!! I was a kid who was "not allowed" to have bratz. I had a large collection anyway. I had ways 😏😆 All 100% legal i promise LOL. I was just very creative in finding ways to get to the store and buy them without my parents knowing. And was lucky to have friends whose parents were cool with bratz and didn't mind taking us to the store when I was over 😄 These anniversary replicas are absolutely beautiful and I will be buying them all as they are released. MGA has me by the wallet and my bank account is crying 😭😂

I loved Bratz when I was a kid my favorite was Cloe because she was the first one I ever got

I remember having the original Yasmin! She was one of my favourites. I regret selling my collection when I left home. I had sooo many. 😭

I want to get some for my daughter in law for nostalgic reasons. I will probably pick up some of the rock angels though.

I am still so bitter that all my bratz dolls were stolen during a car trip ;( I have like one Cloe but she doesn't have her clothes anymore. I loooved those dolls!

I don’t remember having Bratz dolls, I used to play with a girl who had a lot of them. She pulled out a picnic basket full of bratz clothes. She was so selfish & never let me look at them :( I was less than 10 yrs opd

they were ahead of time.

the de-evolution of barbie :D

I am definitely buying Jade and Cameron. Jade is my favorite cuz my dad got me two of her when he couldn't find the twinz so I could have twin dolls. That's why she is my favorite. My friends had my scene dolls but I loved bratz more. I played with them from age 14 onto age 18 and then I ended up giving them away. I wish I had held onto them. My friend still has the safari Cameron cuz it looked like him so i gave him the doll.

I just dug all my bratz out of a box in closet while watching this, so happy to see them coming back!

yasmin gives me earthly spiritual baddie vibes tbh

Hehe I remember getting so excited when monster high dolls because I really wanted my bratz to meet some monsters!

I always thought that Cleo was white sasha was black Yasmin was Hispanic and jade was Asian and I was always proud that there where different races mostly in the 00s there was mostly white blonde hair dolls and not really enough different races 😌

your amazing i love your videos :>

I’m an adult male who will be getting these dolls because I wasn’t allowed to have dolls and I remember how I fell in love with the bratz now that I’m older am I can buy I’m my own I’ve started collecting my love for these dolls hasn’t gone away with the years

After a whole year of the release i finally got a yasmin and was so excited but her lip paint was chipped 😭 as a collector my heart cries

I'm a 32 years old trans woman, i was already "too old" when Bratz came out but i absolutely L O V E D them. Thankfully i have a younger (afab) sister, so i was able to live Bratz through her. I wasn't allowed to play with dolls, so we played with Bratz and Barbie in secret. I'm so glad to see a lot of amab people saying that their parents had no issues with them wanting/playing with dolls. Just let your kids play with wathever they want (Of course now i own more than a 100 Bratz dolls and more than 300 dolls in general, lol.)
