Just for stylistically mismatched giggles. @katenicolai I might have found a head that doesn’t work on the Unoss body.

Shrug emoji made me cackle.

WHY is Kitty Cheshire HUMAN??? Wonderland has fully fledged animals walking around yet they degraded Kitty to one of those girls at school who always wears cat ears+meows and im ANGRY

I mean I get why they didn’t make her a cat like the original cheshire for doll purposes, but they could’ve AT LEAST given her Real cat ears and a tail like Toralei Stripe from MH! I don’t think it would’ve been that hard plus IT MAKES SENSE

She doesn’t even have a cat form yet Bunny Blanc can turn into a rabbit? WHAT THE FUCK MATTEL

CERISE IS ONLY HALF WOLF AND SHE’S MORE OF A REAL ANIMAL THAN KITTY IS

I mean the answer is because the characters were all supposed to be human and look human and sellable as normal pretty human dolls and not monster in any way because the franchise was supposed to target parents/children who didn’t like the fantasy skin and monster aspects of Monster High.

Kitty’s original design is a white girl with fake cat ears because it was just the concept of the Cheshire Cat being filtered into a fashion, they only made the doll purple because at the time criticism was mounting about the lack of characters of colour in the series and Mattel’s standby for the last decade had been to make fantasy skin dolls because they’re like the plausibly deniable middle ground that they can claim diversity points on while not alienating the white consumer base Ever After High very much chased. It’s presumably why the doll had brown eyebrows despite having an entirely purple colour palette besides them, they were a holdover from the doll having white skin. The same logic can be applied to Farrah who lacks any natural tones aside from her brown brows.

It’s 6 years since Don’t Fear The Year

I don’t know when will Mattel put Jackson and Holt in the reboot, but I’m 99% sure they will give them a little sister too.

Dude Monster High is dead they aren’t adding anything lmao

Still hunting for this Liv doll fashion from 2010 (?) and I know the dolls and fashions show up in thrift stores and at flea markets. If anyone had one for sale, please let me know?

seeing people try to educate others about barbie but their knowledge of Barbie exists entirely within the mid 80s to the early 90s and nothing else
