Quick Reviews(?) - Bratz Flashback Minis - Series 1

One of my collector goals is to make a doll version of myself and give them a little room with some miniature furniture. I haven't exactly found stuff that I would want on my mini doll room, but the recent Bratz minis piqued my interest because of course they're gonna be a doll collector too.

Today I got my Amazon parcels and one of them included the advent calendar of this assortment! I've seen reviews of this so I already know what I signed up for. Since it's been on sale for a while I decided that $15 for 10 mini dolls and 5 cosmetics may be a pretty good deal, considering each capsule of 2 costs about $7-$10. If you collected the mini capsules and got lots of the items from series 1 already, you don't really need this. All of the items in this pack (save for one) are in the same series.

The cosmetics were fine. I get that they had to add those in there. It's just kind of weird to put the lipstick and mascara in separate days, and the cute vinyl pouch that came in the capsules wasn't included at all. If I had it my way, I'd add all four Wintertime Wonderland palettes since, you know, it's a winter-themed product.

While we're at it, the choice of dolls was also pretty weird. Ideally, I'd expected all five Wintertime Wonderland dolls in there, Holiday Katia, Cloe, Felicia, and Trinity, and maybe a Wintertime Wonderland Boy. Then the four palettes and the vinyl bag to make it 25. But honestly, I'd still have preferred 20 dolls in total.

The number of items per character was also a bit unbalanced. Every core girl had at least two dolls except for Sasha who had one doll and a palette. I kind of wish they swapped the random Rock Angelz Yasmin for a 20 Yearz Sasha, or even the styling head for more variety. The split between the 20 Yearz and Flaunt It lines were also a bit weird. Although I was happy to get a PnP Cloe, her inclusion in this bunch was also off.

I know I sound like I hate this product but I really don't. I just find so many things about it weird.

On that note, I also bought two capsules so I could complete the free shipping requirement, and the gacha gods have blessed me because I got the only two sets I actually wanted to have from series 1! The twins, the lip phone, and PnP Jade were my must haves from this particular wave, so I'm pretty much content with everything I got.

I'm still happy with my purchase considering how much I got them for. Now to find a way to display them without looking like a mess!
