Mattel has only ever in their history produced 4 valid male dolls

Mattel honestly needs to halve the amount of playline dolls theyre pushing put and actually invest in the brand instead of stretching it out to the point of insanity

Anybody else have Fashionista #103? This girl:

Just took her out of her box and her hair feels...unpleasantly tacky. That’s not, like...a Thing™️ that’s still happening, is it, this is an outlier, right.

rising from my grave to ask:

Does anybody know of anyone who does doll customizations for commission? I’m thinking fashion dolls, specifically. The customization I have in mind would be for an existing fictional character so I’d have reference images and whatnot.

I’ve no clue how any of this works or if it’s even a thing so if anyone has any advice it’d be very appreciated 😄

90’s holiday Barbies are so extra

Barbie Magazine Summer 1988

Those who are praising Barbie's new Creatable World line don't realize how much a screw you this is to the parents.

None of these dolls will fit the basic Barbie and Ken doll clothes which means if a little girl wants one these dolls, the parents have to shell out the money for clothes that fit them.

And if previous specialty lines are any indication, the extra clothes won't be no 4 dollars aka how much a basic Barbie outfit can cost.

It's basically Mattel trying to suck money out of a movement and drain a parent's pocket this holiday season.
