Cancelled She-ra (2018) Action Dolls

In 2019 Mattel released eight fashion dolls for the 2018 She-ra reboot featuring Adora, Glimmer, Bow, Catra, Shadow Weaver, and 3 versions of She-ra (there was also a Swift Wind model). However, the line was planned to be more extensive before being cancelled (and we all know how disastrous the rollout of the completed line was). Prototypes were made of Mermista, Queen Angella, season four Glimmer, and Entrapta, though no photos of the latter have emerged.

All photos come courtesy of the Instagram of (at the time) Mattel employee and packaging designer Darren Sander (who also worked on the mainline She-ra designs), but Dollect did us all the courtesy of pulling the photos since it's a pain to do with Instagram. Some of these photos feature unfinished doll parts that might be a bit disconcerting.

Mermista:

Designed by someone named Annalise (no last name given, but probably this Annalise since she did the core line), Mermista was probably planned for a second wave of toys that never came to be. This is her prototype. It's unknown how "finalized" she was or if there would have been more passes on her design.

Queen Angella & Queen Glimmer 2-pack:

First two photos are earlier prototypes on immovable dolls, the more unfinished photos feature the "powerfully poseable" bodies and sculpt.

Angella's forehead gem was going to be a separate inset piece (as shown in the head sculpt in the 4th photo). Her wings were going to have an aurora borealis effect on them and both outfits were covered in glitter. Darren Sander seems to have done more work for these two.

Alas, Entrapta's prototype was never shared, but suffice to say, we were robbed.

You were working late tonight due to working as a model and having a big photo shoot. Axl was your boyfriend who you didn’t live with but was planning to move it with along with your 5 year old daughter Aurora of course. Her father wasn’t in her life anymore so you were a single mom and sometimes you had to get some help with taking care of her since it’s a hard job.

𝐀𝐗𝐋’𝐒 𝐏𝐎𝐕 :

Y/n who was my girlfriend had asked me to pick aurora her daughter up from school today. I felt a little nervous since I had to babysit her and I had never really babysat anyone before but I was happy you trusted me. I stood outside the school waiting for her while smoking a cigarette looking around until she runs out. She waves at me while running towards me hugging my leg. She wore a pink hello kitty backpack and a pink princess dress with her blonde hair in a braid. I smiled patting her head.

𝐀𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐚: “Heyy axl, mommy told me you would pick me up”

He smiles picking her up and stomping on his cigarette while putting her in her car seat

𝐀𝐱𝐥: yeah mommy is working late tonight

𝐀𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐚: can we go to the park?

I look down at her thinking a little while fixing her seat belt and getting into my seat starting the car.

𝐀𝐱𝐥: hm. Sure we can do that

He smiles and starts to drive towards the park y/n and aurora always were at. He looked at the mirror a couple times to make sure she’s okay while parking the car. Helping her out while she runs towards the park. He runs after her breathing heavily and standing against a tree watching her play making sure she doesn’t hurt herself. He gets another cigarette lightening it and then taking a puff looking up at her playing. He looks around at the other parents giving him judgement and disgusted looks, like he cared tho?

After a while he walks up to her picking her up and ticking her

𝐀𝐱𝐥: you hungry?

𝐀𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐚: yeah

𝐀𝐱𝐥: come on then

He takes her hand and walks with her back to the car bucking her in and getting into the front seat driving back to y/n’s place. When they well get there he gets a little nervous cause now he will have to entertain her somehow. He walked inside with her going to the living room. He gets her toys and sits down watching her play with her Barbie dolls.

𝐀𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐚: come axl

He nods getting up and sitting down on the floor next to her playing with the Barbie’s with her. He also helped her build up a doll house you had bought her. He orders some pizza and plays with her until the door knocks.

He gets his wallet and walks up to the door opening it and getting the two boxes of pizza handing the delivery man some money before walking back to the living room.

𝐀𝐱𝐥: are you sure mommy lets you eat in here?

He says while cutting up a piece for her and putting it on a plastic plate picking her up and putting her on the couch.

𝐀𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐚: yes axlll

He looks at her before sighing and nodding handing her the plate watching her eat. He goes to the kitchen getting her a glass of juice and himself a beer. Walking back to the living room he helps her drink and sits down next to her eating some pizza himself while putting on her favorite cartoon.

Later after they finished eating they cleaned up the mess of Barbie’s and food they made.

He gave her a bath before putting her into a pjyamas and braiding her hair. He brushed her teeth as-well getting her all ready for bed. He walks down to the living room sitting down on the couch Aurora laying down in his lap as they keep watching the cartoon series.

After what felt like forever you came home walking in and throwing off your jacket and shoes walking into the living room and smiling calling out for us. Aurora immediately jumps up running over to you and hugging your leg while yelling “mommy!”

𝐘𝐨𝐮: Hey sweetheart

You pick her up and kisses her forehead before walking over to me giving me a peak on the lips and smiling

𝐘𝐨𝐮: did she behave good?

𝐀𝐱𝐥: yeah she was really nice

You smile and nod saying thank you and kissing me before walking upstairs getting her into bed. After that you walk back downstairs to me. I get you some left over pizza and we cuddle the rest of the night.

And as the years go by // Our friendship will never die // You’re gonna see it’s our destiny // You’ve got a friend in me

4. A teacher or mentor: Cooper — Pretty Little Sister, Monica Michael

I ain’t been the greatest role model, known fact / If I could change the things you’ve seen, I would go back / Please learn from my mistakes, don’t go off track / Don’t follow in my footsteps just to say, “hey I’ve done that” / I know that / I’ve left home, sometimes you feel alone / I’m just a call away, eleven digits on the phone / I love you to the bone / I wanna make it known / You will always be my baby even when you’re fully grown

8. Someone who has changed their life: Blaine — Space Between, Descendants 2

And nothing can stay the same // It’s growing pains // Be proud of all the scars // They make you who you are // I know you have to stay // But I’ll never really leave you // Nothing has to change // Even though we’ve changed // And you can find me in the space between

Send me an OC + a number

he continues to hold on tight, her hair might not be wild in the wind but his sure was.

*Icia grunts a bit against the force of the wind, holding onto the bar as tight as she can.....*

*And all of a sudden it's calm.*

*well, calmer. They're no longer flying upwards, rather now seeming to be at a cruising altitude. The wind is still intense, but definitely not as much as before. Elusiva glides contently along the wind currents..... oh wow. They're so high up, as if they could touch the aurora and star above.... even the castle looks something of a toy model from where they are. But they can see everything up here.*

[gfitzwillsebastianz3rd]

I did some more edits of bloodbound-selfship's beautiful family, and they told me some more lore about them.

Avery is Half-Vampire, since Amy was full mortal when Avery was a baby, but had to be Turned when Aurora was born, but the sun doesn't effect As much as Adrian before he took the serum.

Amy and Adrian have baby Aurora when Avery is four. She's blond, compared to both her parents and sister, who have black or dark brown hair.

Aurora is full vampire at birth, and She does have sun sensitivity, but her eyes just stay blue for most of her infancy. When she's a little older and discovers her teeth are growing and uses her mouth, she struggles to keep her fangs in.

As a result, she burst a lot of her teething toys as a toddler.

Avery adores her younger sister, but she does tease her lovingly as they grow up, and Avery eventually dyes her hair blonde in her Emo girl phase when she's a teenager, going through several phases before settling on the Softcore style.

As with most of my edits, Most of the child/baby models are from the Royal Romance/Heir.

The edit of Adrian is one I did for an earlier artwork of my OC and him together with their baby.
