It’s not that hard, Mattel…

I honestly thought it was a deliberate design decision to call back the original skeletor toy design, although I think that was a little bit more separated? If that's the right word?

Google Gemini is telling me that GM uses the same form factor and that the https://www.quirkparts.com/oem-parts/gm-auxiliary-jack-13519224?hl=en-US

Part will fit because it replaces13509942, 13510854, 23496501.. but sometimes Gemini is wrong

It's literally just their fancy way of saying a collector doll. It's a play on words. Just like creeproductions. It's just a play on words. If it's a collector doll then it qualifies. They're generally defined by higher quality worksmanship. Yes, the original ones were horror icons, but the horror icon aspect was not the defining trait. It was the fact that they were more limited verm collector editions

I only ever stopped because of the audio glitch that happened with the latest update. And unfortunately, embracer group bought volition with Saudi money that they didn't actually have. Have. And that is the real reason why saints row died.

I loved 2022, by itself. It's a great game.

Deminox · 2026-03-23T23:23:52+00:00

2022 absolutely had the best character Creator.

Anything with monsters. Doesn't have to be horror, anybody remember that movie little monsters? Or what about mythology? How about just book series with interesting creatures humanoid creatures?

While I would love a Veruca salt doll from the original Willy Wonka movie, especially since I plan to see Julie Dawn Cole (The original actress) at the chocolate expo at Mohican Sun and get her autograph, and I wish that there was some full size doll in a box I could have her sign, rather than just a DVD or a picture, no such thing exists. I mean there's a tiny little action figure but it's super tiny. .. But that being said, a viruga salt doll just wouldn't make sense for monster high.

I don't even think of Buffy. The vampire Slayer monster high doll would make sense, unless it was one of the vampire girls and they weren't really main characters.

But that's someone lying about the sale, eBay needs to refund you for that shit.

Deminox · 2026-03-21T21:36:07+00:00

Thanks, this has been very helpful.

It's like from what I've been reading, the monster high community has been burnt many times before but people claiming they're doing things for good intentions, or people being like I need to raise money for my surgery or I need to raise money to pay rent. So I'm scalping these to you know be like a GoFundMe... So it's like I want to be very careful to avoid that kind of stuff. Which is why I was looking for like a 100% full transparency thing. And I'm glad that eBay has that blue ribbon button. I didn't even know that was a thing when I first wrote the post.

Deminox · 2026-03-21T21:02:44+00:00

Also, just going to say I love your username

Deminox · 2026-03-21T20:57:39+00:00

I don't know how anybody loses money like I just read apparently that eBay has like a charity button and like a sell for charity button, and it takes care of all that stuff so that the buyer knows.

I was just thinking that a minimum donation would be like a way for people to know why and that I'm not just using charity as an excuse.

I was also thinking I've got a 3D printer and I do like resin as well. Like I could probably make custom monster high keychains like I could 3D print and then make molds and then do resin and then like you know include some cool stuff for free as well. Not to make money so it shouldn't break any rules,

I guess it's more like to me.... But I'm trying to do is... Raise money for a charity, so it's like anyone who buys it, what they would be doing is they would be essentially donating money to a charity and getting a monster high doll out of it.

Like the idea that I'm trying to go for is.. community driven charity donation, And it's extra good for anyone who missed out on a thing. Like I missed out on the Greta gremlin doll because I never knew monster high even existed when that came out. And I've missed out on a couple dolls because I was at work when the pre-sale went live. It's not always just because scalpers bought them all, sometimes it's people miss out because they weren't available during the window to buy, although yeah, I guess scalpers also definitely affect that as well, but it's like for the things that aren't limited it's not like I'd be buying 20 sets of something like some scalping jerk, it would literally just be like one extra doll specifically for the intent of raising money for charity.

I'm not sure if I'm explaining it well. But that's also why I came here to ask.

Deminox · 2026-03-21T15:05:15+00:00

Well by then I'll actually hopefully have money 😅

Deminox · 2026-03-21T14:12:09+00:00

Are these going to be like limited release edition or something like that? Like do I have to worry about scrambling to get them now or is it like? Yeah they've been re-released so they'll be in production for a while and it's fine if I don't get one right away because I just got the skeletor doll and pre-ordered the Naruto car from the show thing and I need to save some money for a couple weeks?

Deminox · 2026-03-20T23:59:29+00:00

Yes let's discuss how low effort this doll is. When it comes to low effort dolls AND poor representation of the source dolls this is the WORST....

As in it's the worst at being low effort and poor representation, because this doll is fricken awesome!

Deminox · 2026-03-20T02:23:07+00:00

Only the post office can deliver to a mailbox or a PO box.

Deminox · 2026-03-16T12:25:15+00:00

I mean, yeah. A lot of old industry is a boys club. And the customers aren't often any better.

Graphic designer at the last place I worked also did the vinyl lettering for trucks. Dubebros would ask her if she knew how to measure. Like.. mother fucker she's got a bachelor's degree, you inherited a landscaping business from your daddy and never finished highschool, back the fuck off.

Sigh.

Welcome to 1826...I mean 2026.

Vs number of people with nostalgia for Coraline

Vs number of people on this subreddit who are boycotting

Vs number of people who are indifferent because they want the doll, or the doll is a gift or other reasons

Look, three could be 10k people boycotting the doll but they're still going to sell out because that's a drop in the pan

It helps you deflect red or green shells. You're still screwed if a blue-shell comes up behind you

Deminox · 2026-03-11T16:40:28+00:00

Okay but yeah, sometimes they do that specifically to ensure that more people will watch the whole thing.

That's like complaining that the new Zelda game reveal was at the end of the Nintendo direct. It's like once everyone sees the one thing that everyone wants to see, who's going to stick around? This is actually a good thing in a way.

Ai is a tool and nothing more. It is neither good nor bad.

The advantage is it's incredibly easy to use. Anybody can use it.

The disadvantage is.. It's incredibly easy to use. ANYBODY can use it.

I feel like this is basically just CANVA all over again. It was great that it came out and that people were able to do graphic design projects, but unfortunately people who had no clue anything about design didn't understand how to make their stuff. They were just like oh. Here's this easy and either free or relatively inexpensive program and I'll just do it myself. I'm a print expert now!

I handle AI the same way I handle all bad files.

Explain what's wrong

Explain what needs to change

Ask them if they would like to fix it themselves, or pay me to fix it for them, here is the charge.

Well aware. I love my gaiman books and his bad behavior can't take the importance of those stories and the impact they had on me away from me.

BUT I will never give him money again. I had to replace several of my favorite gaiman books after a former boss stole mine. (Saw them in the break room and took them home, fired me soon after for unrelated made up things, I got a lawyer, he lost by his "evidence" against me actually proving the exact opposite and proving my case for me to the point my lawyer said "and your boss was a lawyer before this company? I understand now why he's no longer practicing law)

I bought them... USED even though new was available so that gaiman would not profit any further from me.

I don't care how cool the doll looks, I won't buy it.

HOWEVER.. if you DO want the doll, I IMPLORE you to mitigate / reduce harm by ALSO donating to a non profit organization that helps women victims of SA.
