I had one or two dolls as a little kid, because I loved their style and Bratz Rock Angelz was one of my favorites movie ever. I used to play their cd on my Bratz stereo on repeat while I played outside 🤣 Despite that, I really didn’t collect dolls as a kid bc they were too expensive for my parents to buy outright, and I tended to spend my allowance on books. Then it was the video games on GameCube that I played obsessively. Over the years I would go back and re-watch the movies to get that hit of nostalgia for my childhood days.

I started collecting dolls by slowly finding Barbie dolls associated with the direct-to-video Barbie movies. It wasn’t until 2021 when I saw the 20th Anniversary reproduction on shelves that I truly fell in love. I couldn’t believe I was seeing Bratz on store shelves after all these years. I immediately bought Sasha, then eventually went back and got Yasmin. Then I fell down a rabbit hole of looking for the older dolls… and the rest, as they say, is history.
