SO after going back and forth with support, I don't really have true answer about how the daily collection is supposed to work, but I think I've figured out some things.
there are 16 total locations (as detailed in the original quest)
you'll collect 6-8 dolls for the daily
those daily dolls seem to appear in the same spots depending on the day of the week (think like the Pandoric portals in Epona)
each doll grants 75-100 Trailblazer Points
The chart below marks off which dolls are found where on what days. I am hoping its the same for everyone (and that it wont change). If you are more of a map person, I've made daily maps, below the fold!
So, ummm, SSO posted some photos on their instagram and, some have interesting things on the monitors (like a sneak peek of the stable customization 👀)

do you remember when i drew a star stable online fancomic? that was wild.
i don't know if anyone really cares to read about this, but sometimes it crosses my mind and i feel bad for never finishing my sso fancomic. i feel weirdly ashamed that i left it hanging like that, but with my waning interest in the game and a long depressive episode following some general burnout last year I wasn't looking forward to working on it even when I felt like drawing again.
(I still play sso occasionally but i take super long breaks between play sessions, mostly because i've done basically everything in the game and have run out of things to hold my interest as a solo player. I still enjoy it and look forward to its updates ofc.)
Still, I sometimes go through my works in progress folder for the fancomic and feel guilty, mostly for myself because I have a horrible track record of actually finishing projects but there were some parts of the story i was looking forward to illustrating. I had the overarching plot laid out and a couple chapters scripted up to completion, but I no longer feel like continuing it and would like to work on some potentially original projects. I am happy to have made it as far as I did however, because I feel that it taught me a lot about the comic making and storytelling process. exp, if you will.
I'm gonna share the pages I had done anyway. it was a really long chapter, with 19 planned pages although i only finished 4 of them and they're a year old at this point.
a panel from a later page i liked
also here's some bonus sketches and drafts
a scene perhaps after farley was revealed as a dragon. wasn't sure if depicting animal predation/death would upset ppl
and some mane care and bonding with farley n lakshmi.
anyway, if you read this or ever liked my silly little self indulgent fan comic, thank you truly and honestly.
