Out of all the changes, making Torelei an “elite” is the most offending; she had a great backstory as a juvie alleycat given a second chance at Monster High. At the very most, make her the principal’s adopted daughter, rather than retcon her story entirely just to make a second mean rich girl. Cleo already got that covered, friend or not.

I wouldn't mind the new characters as much if they were new characters. They should have just made them completely new characters, maybe like a new class in MH after the other girls graduated, instead of trying to completely rewrite the OG characters

I really dont like the new gen, but hating on the voice actors is beyond wrong. I am sure they are doing a fantastic job. The designs are the problem, not the voice actors Edit: Spelling

Its so upsetting how people are attacking the Voice actors for doing their job. I thought Monster High was about accepting each other for their freaky flaws, but it seems like some fans didnt get the memo

People should be ashamed of even bringing the actors into this situation. The have beautiful voices and already seam like amazing actors. I’m mostly upset about the costume designs and why they are rewriting history of the original

I'm not thrilled for the changes that Mattel have given on MH but, this is really disheartening to hear that people are hating on the voice actors without even giving them a chance. They worked hard on this series and it makes me feel horrible for what happened to them. Monster High is all about acceptance, if you send hate towards the people that woked hard on this project that just undermines the lessons and values the series is about.

I really hope the "adult" show doesn't deal with heavy topics like those stupid Netflix reboots. The reason I like "kids'" shows is because they're intriguing without having to deal with adult topics. I honestly hope it's more teen oriented too, because shows anymore are either for kids or jump to adults which is stupid.

I’m open minded for the reboot but, won’t be to surprised to see merchandise on clearance eventually

Reading the character bios, it seems that the new Monster High is drawing very heavily from Greek mythology. While I love Greek mythology (I'm named after a Greek princess), what I loved about the original series is that it drew inspiration from ALL kinds of lore and mythology from all over the world. The dolls are cute, if a little childish looking.

I really wish people wouldn’t go and bully the voice actors, especially over something they haven’t even seen. I’m personally very open and excited for this new reboot. OF COURSE the originals will always be better, but I wanna see what the brand has to offer now. Up until now, I love Clawdeen.

i dont hate them but they're def missing the "edge" that endeared children to them so much in the first place. back in the 2010's if they wanted girly or even just non goth or emo dolls, they'd just buy bratz or barbie... now monster high also has to compete with rainbow high, shadow high, & omg & more? which also have slightly edgy dolls that look similar to this reiteration of mh? yeah i dunno, i think the og designs were pretty much perfect so i dont understand this choice, 2000-early 2010's fashion is in now, the og dolls still would've been popular with children today. the best way to update them would've been to add more lgbt characters, get cultural characters right & redesign those, more body types etc etc. that'd stay really true to what mh is all about & appeal to a wider audience... instead they just uh, made them look like dolls for toddlers i guess? even if they do continue mh w the og cast designs, i just think it sucks & is very telling of what nick thinks kids like when this is their vision of what mh is edit: ok honestly i've warmed up to them a bit more now. im still not 100% on the fashion but im not gonna pretend gen 1 mh was 100% gothic and stuff, i just think i prefer it a little more & think the fashion should be edgier & darker, maybe today's tweens will like gen 3 fashion more though like what do i know

I like the head sculpt for Frankie and Draculaura looks good besides that bow, but clawdeen looks so out of place next to them with that incredibly childish look. The fashion makes me so sad since the og clawdeen was a fashion person and always had super cool and fun wolf themes. It’s upsetting that I may never get a good clawdeen doll again as someone who’s favorite character was clawdeen

While I'm really disappointed that Lagoona is no longer going to have an Aussie accent, I would NEVER send hate to Valeria. There's no excuse for bullying a VA

i can totally see them doing what winx club did in the late 2010’s by having the original series continue with a younger audience during the time of it’s release, while also making world of winx on netflix, which intended to appeal to older fans that stuck with the series during season 4 and prior. while you could argue that their attempts didn’t completely pan out in the long run i do think that monster high can definitely get the formula right through having both gen 1 and gen 3 coexist so they appeal to both audiences.

Everyone’s says to have an open mind, but completely missing that the movie and dolls are being marketed to the wrong audience. Monster high ended in late 2010s. The kids they are marketing to have no connection to MH. Yet the MH comeback and reboot are relying on the old fans hype. It’s disappointing and heartbreaking. Fans are more then allowed to criticize, however bullying the actors is wrong.

If they make clawdeen a distinct half human, everyone’s monster identity becomes really unclear. Monsters like draculaura, frankie, and ghoulia have some sort of human origin so are they considered part human too??

I dont really mind the reboot dolls, I just think that they should release more of the old dolls for some of the older fans

Honestly, the designs have me going... "Are these even the same characters?" Ik, it's a new gen and all but when characters stray away from the source material a bit too much it does make em unrecongnizable. The Ghoul Squad series, I'll give credit where it is due, kept the ghouls' designs and personalities relatively the same while in an all new universe, the new gen backstories does have me confused like...why does Draculaura wanna be a witch? Why is Toralei reduced to being a second carbon copy 'mean girl' archtype, when Cleo sorta already has tha role covered? (Ik later on Cleo has character development and becomes more nicer as the series goes on) And Lagoona...unrecognizeable...She looks like a new character altogether. Maybe if they kept the blue skin anf blonde hair, but added coloured streaks and kept her sporty aesthetic, then maybe... I doubt it will be another Sonic Movie redesign uproar, but to be blunt, the designers and story writers failed the assignment by 50%.

9:00 Heath being the son of Hades makes no sense? Hades isn’t associated with fire? There’s at least a dozen heat related gods in Greek myth. From Hyperion to Apollo to Hephaestus. I’m just so confused? It looks like they saw Disney hades and were like “okay but what if we swap the blue for red/orange?”

It seemed that they’re changing Lagoona blue’s background like she’s Australian in the og but now it seemed that she will be Hispanic? It’s just kinda weird because other than the name the new Lagoona is just not lagoona for a lot of ways, and some were even hoping for an aboriginal person to be casted but oh well, they could’ve named the new lagoona Fishella or sth like that and no one would noticed that it’s supposed to be lagoona. Tbh they could probably name the new Draculaura as her younger sister Fangelica and no one would notice 💀

Okay ngl, I went into this with hope and got a bit discouraged with some of the designs. I got descendants cute vibes but fell in love with spooky chic. However with the idea of pulling of TWO series, it makes more sense now. Making a children version and then have an adult version. I can't say more but see on what they pull off in the coming future.

I mean honestly this is just disappointing how toned down it actually is, as someone who saw the movie I was quite optimistic about the future of the franchise but seeing the new character designs is just disappointing, imo just because it’s made for kids doesn’t mean it has to be insanely kid friendly, kids deserve aspiring heroes who face issues and have mature story lines which I feel like the original executed very well it gave kids amazing characters to look up to

i am just now realizing that the mh movie is the percy jackson movies all over again. -not what (most)fans wanted -would be good if it wasn’t supposed to be a reboot/adaptation -changed some of the main points of the og material for better or worse -some characters are so unrecognizable -the og creator is not even involved -changed many characters personalities/stories

If people aren’t interested in the reboot, that’s fine, but bullying the voice actors is not okay under any circumstances.

I wish the monster high brand would be more unique, alternative, or experimental. I feel like the reboot is safe and Monster High has the potential to stand out from other doll brands. Let's hope they won't miss the mark if they made a series with the original gen 1 lore.

yeah, sorry to say it but i'm firmly in the "hater" camp with this. Monster High was one of the most influential series of my childhood and to see it turned into... whatever this is, is pretty heartbreaking. some things just need to be left alone, it doesn't matter how much passion and love the new cast/voice actors/artists/etc. have for a franchise just. don't. touch. it. make a new series and put all of the attention and effort into that instead of disappointing og fans. hell, say it's inspired by MH or a continuation of the story/world but with new characters, don't erase everything people loved about the already established worldbuilding because you wanted to slap the well-known name on an entirely different body and personality (coughLagoonacough). idk what the og writers' POV on this is, or if it's the same people doing the reboot, but... if it's a new writing team then doesn't this feel like a slap in the face after all of the hard work they put in for YEARS? if it IS the same team, then guys... have some self-respect, this is just sad. this screams Money-Hungry Mattel taking advantage of people's still existing adoration for first era Monster High to push out another beaten-dead-horse reboot that's even worse than the previous one. i don't agree AT ALL with people going after the VAs over this btw, that's shitty no matter the situation, this is 100% a case of corporate greed and shouldn't be pinned on them. however, seeing a small group of fans lash out at the wrong person doesn't change my opinion overall, it's nice that the cast is happy and passionate, but that's not enough to keep a beloved series going longer than it was made to. just let MH go into the light as a good memory for everyone and leave the ghouls ALONE. sorry for the rant but not sorry for everything else.

Torelai is literally perfect, she doesn't need to change 😩

honestly what i hate most abt it is that theyre pairing clawdeen with a guy. the creator just confirmed he's on board with her being a lesbian but since he isn't involved with mh anymore we can't even have that. it's so sad and frustrating bc she was really embraced by the lesbian community as an icon for us and it's just. tragic. that's the main thing keeping me from this reboot bc i really like some of their proposals (nonbinary frankie with a prosthetic leg, i actually love drac and cleo's new designs) but this single fact just. really turns me off.

Btw, it hasn't officially been stated, but it's basically confirmed that Mermaid High is canceled. As for the prototype MH dolls, they look really strange. In the picture of the va cast and the new animation, you can get a better idea of what the dolls will look like. Draculaura's new design is alright. Pretty cute but I wish a small splash of white SOMEWHERE in the outfit. I really like Lagoona's design, but she literally looks like a completely different character, tbh should've just given her a new name. I'm optimistic about this reboot, especially since it seems that Mattel may be continuing the og story in some way alongside the reboot. Honestly I'm just excited to have Monster High back in my life

The Lagoona Blue design is horrible. At first I thought it was a new character with all the changes. The hair, the skin, the clothes…She looks like she came straight outta justice.

While having two different shows for two different audiences is an interesting strategy, it would be better to make one show that will appeal to tweens, teens, young adults and adults, in terms of character design and writing. Shows like Young Justice/Teen Titans, Avatar/Legend of Korra, Star Wars Rebels/Clone Wars, the Dragon Prince, She-Ra & PoP, Voltron, and Trollhunters all did this.

I've got mixed feelings. The designs are cute, but I feel like they're missing the vibe of the og monster high. The doll designs are a little more cartooney and nickelodean-esc then I thought they would be. It doesn't really feel like the monster high I know so I'm a little aprehensive. I want to see what they intend for the more adult targeted show they were planning. I do think they are cute and I would never want to bash any of the designers or people who worked on them, nor the actors for the shows, but I can't say that I'm enjoying the direction they seem to be taking this reboot just by the initial look. I will keep an open mind though and I'm excited to see what else mattel is planning for monster high.

Even though I think some things about the reboot are weird like heath’s design lol I like a lot of things about the new mh reboot/comeback, every time there’s a reboot of something I just think of it as it’s own cool universe

Soooo...y'all know the drill! What do you think of the new doll leaks? Excited for comic con? Nervous about the new series? Tell me all the tea below!

Interesting comparing this to Cave Club. I feel like that line had cute dolls but suffered from weird theming, cheap clothes, and bad hair. And I think that is sort of my concern about what will happen to the new Monster High seeing how Mattel has not had the best track record in the last few years.

I'm honestly pretty disappointed in these designs. JUST the designs mind you, I think the dolls themselves, their quality and molds look pretty damn good. I'm proud of the company for going out of their way to make distinct face shapes for each ghoul, and Deuce's doll actually looks pretty damn good. But like I said, the designs? They're NOT it. I was open minded about Clawdeen and her new glasses, but now she just gives off Disney Channel nerd main character vibes. I like the design and outfit, but not for Clawdeen. I think it'd be a bit better for a reboot Howleen instead. I don't mind Frankie's new design too much so far. I think the hair clip is a bit much, and like everyone else I want them to have their green skin, but the outfit itself is fine if not a little too sporty/popular person-y for me. And Drac... I know people have been saying she looks the best but I honestly couldn't agree less. Quality wise she's great, i like her face shape and mold... But her outfit is a tragedy. It looks nice but my grievances are in the fact that it has NO lolita/victorian inspiration. It's so weirdly modern for her and while I'm all for change I think they need to CHANGE her design to have more of an old timey feel to it. I have other opinions on the other character's designs, but I'll leave it here for now.

I do like MH coming back but I feel like they should listen to there fans and not only that I feel like they should leave MH alone because the more they make reboots Mattel is gonna lose money

Honestly I’m not gonna lie while some of the designs are a little weird I’m mostly looking forward to the new animated series I’m just glad monster high came back at all

I wouldn’t blame the voice actors or even live action actors for their roles, I blame the upper up at Mattel and Nickelodeon for completely butchering the series… AGAIN.

What I really wanna know is why they decided to revamp the original ghouls instead of just making New characters for the third generation since they’re so different from the original ghouls? And after the haunt contour line, will there be any more tributes to the OG fans more to come, along with a conclusion to the original show?

The designs aren’t up my alley cause some of them look weird. But I’m excited for the new series.

I’m excited and scared I hope they do the series justice, I’ll go into it with an open mind. But if we get two shows, one more directed towards the older fans maybe they’ll continue old stories.

I’m sad to see the gen 1 go and even sadder to know that they lost the gothic appeal especially with those like Lagoona but I don’t want to be rude to the new actors or voice actors, I’d love to see how they made gen 3 and even more excited to collect new Monster high dolls, Draculaura I’m coming for you

What if they do what they did with He-Man, and eventually release a line/show for adults? That'd be pretty rad (though it'd probably never happen) It's not even like adults wouldn't buy the stuff, I know a few people who would. We need a darker Monster High!

Y’all I live in Canada and my mom went to our local Walmart and there was literally Frankie Stein Lagoona blue Clawdeen and Dracula Laura in the original packaging and it looked perfect on the back of their head it still says 2008 I couldn’t believe it! My mom called me when she saw them and I asked for Dracula Laura (thinking I could cagey Clawdeen later) I haven’t been to find them since they’ve selling out everywhere I’m even in the United States right now and they’re not even here surprisingly so I just have my one Dracula Laura doll trying to keep her in perfect condition even comes with her umbrella, her bat,and her diary it’s incredible!!! Also if you want pictures you can just ask and I can email them to you!💕

11:58 This isn't the full context! Draculaura's VA was responding to a different comment about someone missing her as a VA, not directly to the tweet from MH! For some reason Twitter decided to display it like to and it has caused a lot of confusion.

The sad thing is that ANY criticism is often interpreted and / or dismissed as "intolerance" or "hate". Most criticism is just that. While some of the less-than-fawning commentary may fit the bill of "intolerance", most of it is simply expressing honest objections. Shouting these opinions down with accusations of hatred will help no one. Let's face it. The old MH set a VEY high bar, and clearing that height will be next to impossible. Folks who dearly love the classic MH, like me, will be scrupulously critical, like it or not.

The inclusion of lgbtq felt forced to me. Though also a bit homophobic because creator said clawdeen was supposed to be a lesbian but here in reboot they put her with the Riverdale jughead wannabe deuce.

Wait a minute.... there's a chance there'll be a different series of Monster High? And if that happens, there might be a chance of those 2 series to cross paths as if they were in a multiverse!! I'm gonna be extreamly excited if it's confirmed!!!

They did Heath so dirty I’m committed to do screenshot redraws once the animated series comes out because I’ve been tweaking some designs for this reboot lmao

Never thought I'd ever be so sad over dolls 😂 I want them to bring back the og ghouls so badly but I'm confident that it will never happen 😢

This whole monster high thing is kinda crazy, I mean like I understand why MATTEL is doing this, because they’re trying to be less Adult Collector vibes and more; Child like. But i don’t know if they realize their fans are 50/50 between adults and kids. Meanwhile MGA is creating stuff really fast and MH haven’t for a little while. It’s all really confusing. But I feel like Adult fans need to calm down and let it be more kid like! But on the other hand, these dolls use to be so cheap and had good Quality but now it feels like there is less quality and a higher price! I don’t know how to feel in this situation, BUT that’s why I support mainly MGA (lol)

I'm kinda disappointed in the new designs. Each character has they're own style that made sense (Dracula looks like she came right out of the victorian era but modernized which makes sense because she's a vampire, Clawdeen had fur and lots of belts which makes sense because she's a werewolf) the new gen 3 desgins are just- WHY?! more alt fashions would have been SOOO much better and translated they're personalities better. I have no issues with the voice actors but thoose new desgins are KILLING me.

I’m just sad that Draculara and Lagoona are losing their accents : ( The characters were so unique and different from everything else during their time and now I feel like their just trying to make them popular and not stay true to their characters.

5:45 Is exactly my feelings summed up in a single rant. Mattel’s doll lines ARE childish looking which is a surprising design choice considering that Monster High fans are likely adults now. To add insult to injury, they completely washed out the original charm of the characters. I also find the justification for Mermaid High’s failure to be absolutely redundant because even with all that reworking and design conflict, they still only managed to come up with a doll that looks like it belongs in a dollar store. There is nothing unique looking about their design and the release of Mermaze was the nail in the coffin. MGA has been killing it with their detailed textiles and over the top character design that appeals to both kids and adults and I am all for it. Mermaid High has no excuse.

I'm confused why so many reboots if your gonna change almost everything at this point just make an new ip or truly make it a new generation and have the characters be there own thing. Doing it this way just feels like there holding any potential from this back. They could kinda have there cake and eat it to by having the ogs show up while introducing new ghouls for the next gen

I'm saddened that the actors and creatives have been on the receiving end of so much hate from some fans. Even if the reboot isn't what many expected, I think it's still worth giving a chance once it's finally here: dolls, series and all. Even if they all are bad, the actors and creatives don't deserve any hate as they're just doing their job, it be Mattel's fault for failing to effectively lead the brand into the new era.

I think the only reason I’m so passionate with my dislike for this reboot it’s just how much monster high was therapeutic for me as a little kid just how much it meant to me when I was younger and just how much literally every single ghoul had a purpose to me I loved monster high when I was little and I loved what it stood for I loved every character and all their storylines and now it’s like they’re wiping that way and coming up with something new I think my dislike for it also has to do with the fear of growing up I’m graduating high school this year and it’s a really bitter sweet feeling I think I just want to hold on to anything that remotely reminds me of my childhood and I don’t want to let go just yet and seeing all the girls looking so different and not even being who they once were it’s just really hard for me to take in and get used to I’m glad that kids now will grow up with what I grew up on but I’m just sad that it’s not the same and things are changing and time is moving forward it’s just really hard for me to grasp that everything eventually comes to an end and I’m just really not ready for such a big change so it just hurts me pretty deep

honestly the thing im most upset about is lagoona's heritage. lagoona has always been aboriginal, and now she's not even australian? nothing inherently wrong with valeria or anything, but the role would be best suited for an aboriginal. it feels like theyre trying to water down her backstory. tbh it looks like theyre watering down the entire mh story.

Tbh I’m terrified by the designs, gothic aesthetics are in, plus their ghouls, monsters etc why not add them? Not many people like to see stereotypes anyways, why not try something new? Honestly, I’d be okay with those designs if they were new characters in a new series personally. But bullying the VAs? Don’t stoop that low, they’re just voice actors for the characters.

I just don't like Clawdeen.. I think the others look good. I had a terrible idea of what they would look like, but Draculora and Frankie don't look as bad as I thought.

Honestly some of the designs are absolutely adorable! But, like they don’t feel like monster high, it feels controlled like the executives didn’t want to do anything that might be seen as risky. Such as the more gothic elements of the original. Since that was something that caused issues with the first gen. I think some of the designs need help but at the same time I have some cautious optimism for the at least animation.

You are everythiiiiiing AHH your entire look, your personality and your videos UGH 😩👏👏

THIS WAS AWESOME CLAWDEENA💕 CANT WAIT FOR THE MH DOLL COLLECTION VIDEO!! STAY CLAWSOME😍

Changing lagoona made me a little frustrated since I love the character and I loved the Australian accent. I honestly would have just preferred a new set of ghouls instead of just changing all of them.

I didn't know that there's also going to be a new tv series and... Jesus what have they done to the guys and ghouls? Especially Heath, Cleo and Lagoona! Also WHY IS HEATH THE SON OF HADES!?!

I always love how you come into a situation with an open mind and heart, and aren't too judgemental towards something new or unexpected. You seem like a wonderful person, and I love your ability to stay so sweet and kind, even when others are rude and cruel 💜💜💜

I’m all for there being 2 different series; one for the OG and one for the younger fans but I hope they’ll also do that for the dolls too. I’d love to add new dolls to my collection but I just don’t like the new designs.

10:00 Without meeting a change? Ok, aesthetically, sure. But she was a street cat that behaved the way she did because of how tough she had it. And now she's gonna be a monster from an elite family that wants to maintain the status quo???? That seems like a HUGE change to me. 11:00 WTH?!? Did someone cyberbully the voice actress??? I understand being upset about the new gen but it's not their fault! They're just trying to participate in something fun, like it or not they don't deserve this, they deserve support!!! WTH IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE????

The fact that there’s people that are sending death threats and massive amounts of hate over a cartoon is ridiculous… for example I don’t like the new animation but I’m not gonna send the creators hate or send them death threats just because I don’t like what I see if you don’t like it you don’t have to watch it…

i think it would make it a lot better is they made it new kids at the school rather then the same cast. kinda like in 13 wishes with howleen, where they have to overcome being known as the siblings to the og cast. idk about anyone else but i have seen teachers ask kids if they are related to a previous classmate. for example howleen saying that she is known as the annoying little sibling. as well as finding their own style is a great topic and message, showing them make mistakes and learning who they are and growing from them. maybe have the og cast make an appearance for the older fans while introducing the new fans to the older works

I thought the Frankie doll looked cute! I liked Clawdeen’s too but I felt like the purple hair doesn’t pull the design together like they thought it would. The only one I found unflattering was Draculaura, and that was because of the way her face looks. It just looks so flat and awkward, if that makes sense

WE'VE MISSED YOU !! 😭 Hope you're doing better~♡

Thanks for the shout out Miss Nine! It’s was great running into you so much this past month, and I’m sorry I missed you at Comic-Con!

7:45 WHY DOSE HEATH LOOK LIKE THAT 😭 IM GOING TO ACTUALLY CRY HEATH IS MY FAVORITE WHAT DID THEY DO TO HIM 😰

I genuinely love Clawdeen’s new design. I understand it’s not for everyone and trust me, I’m also disappointed with the loss of the gothic aesthetic and I do really miss the original. But I don’t think we should be so negative. Let’s appreciate the positive aspects of the dolls and while it’s ok to be disappointed, obviously, understand and respect how much love and hard work went into designing them. It must be hard for the creatives who worked on this to see their creation being absolutely RIPPED TO SHREDS because it’s not like the original. ):

It would be cool to see a movie about the new mh reboot characters meeting the og mh characters! Like they are in a different universe and could maybe get some of the old voice actors to be apart of it. It would comfort me and maybe others seeing the og characters and atleast having a last goodbye to them

Hey clawdeena9 i love the way you inspired me on the dolls i love thank you so much.💜

I feel kinda bad, because I really WANT to like the dolls, but I just don’t think they’re very cute (except deuce. I really like his doll). I feel awful that the new voice actors are getting harassed. That’s not what MH is about. The idea for two different series is really smart, I hope they go through with that!

The one thing I'm hoping for in the new animated show is that they revamp Heath's personality to be more likeable. He was super annoying in the original MH, and I know that was on purpose, but having that kind of character in the main cast instead of just a side character would get really old really fast.

i really hope they bring back the og designs for maybe an adult or teen series version 😿 but I’m open to watching and giving a chance to this new gen series va’s seem so cool!!

I'm suprised that no one acknowledged so far that Nickelodeon made out of Lagoona basically a cookie cut out version of Ariande Grande. Just...why

So I saw a comment somewhere else and it really made sense. The MH reboot is not aimed at the original viewers or adult collectors. This is a line for a new generation of children. So the characters will have fashions that reflect current kid friendly trends and the personalities will be different from the originals. This can be upsetting, but isn't necessarily bad. There is always two sides to everything.

While the dolls haven’t come out yet and I want to judge them once they’re fully out to the public I think they look decent while not being the best things ever, when I first saw them I felt like it was fake mostly to how the white hair on Frankie looks it felt like it was a photoshopped clump of hair but it could also just be a really bright white they used for their hair but other than that I think Draculara looks the best out of them and I’m in love with her new outfit for the reboot, I think the nose on Clawdeen will take sometime to get used to but other than that I love her outfit and face here.

You honestly slayed that outfit

I like Draculaura’s design, it feels like it’d be from a collection. And Frankie’s new hair. But I do miss the old dolls. And as Clawdeen being my favorite from childhood- it hurts seeing her like that. Like. Wtf.

Personally I feel like people are being wayyyy too harsh about this all. Sure, it's not the og Ghouls, but we all knew it wouldn't be. Of course you can not like them, but there's no need to hate on it or the actors and voice actors. They're just trying to do their job :// I personally really like the new movie and the leaked dolls, but we'll see what the future brings ☺️

About Frankie's parents: in the cartoon they are never said to be child of the Monster. Most people think Frankenstein (the monster) is their dad but maybe in the cartoon they wanted to make them scientists to be more accurate to the novel. So it's not that bad if they're parents are scientists because the gen1 cartoon was pretty ambiguos about it even if the dolls don't follow the same canon

If being a witch is forbidden, I wonder what they think of wizards?

Another Iclawnic video as per usual 💖💚 your work is so polished sis. A true professional. Nobody does videos like you. Tbh with the new MH dolls, I’ll probably just buy draculaura….. for her clothes. That’s it.

I still don't like the live action movie or the rebooted dolls/series but even so it is really upsetting that the voice actors are being bullied. Its not fair especially since old MH hasn't been completely discontinued considering the limitied addition dolls are still being produced eg: SDCC Frankie, Gremlins doll, the brady twins etc. We're still getting bits and pieces of the original, oh and not to forgetg but the creeproductions as well! Mattel has not ignored our requests whatsoever. You might not like the reboot like me but theres still a bunch more for us old MH lovers on the way.

I feel like between the fact not only did they change the characters looks but also the lore is what rubs me the wrong way.

im suuuper excited for this reboot. ive been a fan of the series since i was 4 years old and i think this reboot will be super fun. I dont know why other fans are so bent up about it, sure the last one wasnt the best reboot but we should all be a bit welcome to change, right?

I like the sculpts of the new dolls. They look like the actors. The factory paint isn’t great, though. I can see myself buying them to repaint and make them look more like they do in the movie.

I really really love Draculara’s new design, mainly probably because of the hat lol. I don’t know if it’s a sun hat or a witch hat (probably the latter) but I love it either way. I’m actually really excited for her doll.

If we're all being honest we more than likely going to watch the movie and series regardless whether its to see what its about or just to have some form of criticism directed towards it. I personally just want to watch it for Cleo and Draculaura, I really like the fact Drac is going to be doing magic so I hope she doesn't disappoint and Cleo seems the same so it'll be nice to see something that hasn't really changed but adapted in a different way. Also...I'm crying if clawdeen is straight (not that anything is wrong with it but I just loved that she and the other ghouls weren't really "oooo, boy, me need him in my life.")

My big hope is that they play with body types I believe that is a very important part of the doll besides the face mold

I think it would be a good idea to ask if they plan on adding any little details from other MH doll lines to any Skullector or new gen dolls, like the hair tinsel from the Sweet 1600 dolls, or possibly taking outfits from different dolls and putting them on another character!! I think it would be super cool to see if they would ever try swapping outfits or aesthetics for the dolls, just to try something different!!

I’d actually be cool with two co-existing shows and lines. Make the adult one a little darker and more steeped in the folklore that the og characters are inspired by. Something well and truly created to be viewed by adults who are capable of critical thinking and want fulfilling, satisfying plots and storylines. I’d love some LGBTQ rep too, and if She-Ra is anything to go by, we just might get it. The kiddie one can still be a kiddie one. No sweat.
