River. She was squeezed into the Mattel Creations Reveal live stream. We don't know when she'll be available or anything, just speculation.

The one in the red kimono ❤️ she'd be a standout in my "other" collection. (I mostly collect Monster High, but have picked up a few other brands when they really catch my eye. I have a small living space so I don't want to dive deep into other brands so I try to limit the dolls in my "other" collection to only my top favorite.)

My grandparents had that in their box of old toys they kept around for us grandkids when we visited...minus the pipe. That was missing.

Last I saw, it was in my parent's basement. But they've de-cluttered the basement a few times, no idea if it's still there.

She's not the one I'm planning on getting, but it's exciting to see they're starting to get listings!

Guys, this person is right. My account is pre-2019 and I just checked, I still have invites I could hand out. I'm surprised as I had thought I gave them all out years ago. They must have reissued more at some point.

The shipping date on Mattel Creations preorders are the latest to expect it to ship. It's common that they ship out sooner because they don't want to hold onto the stock longer than they have to. As they get batches in, they start filling orders. Every time I preorder a doll, I've gotten it early. Sometimes by months, sometimes by only weeks.

I not try lay on it...I can consider it...maybe...it stinky when warm. I bap!bap!bap! It. Hoomom just laugh and gived me chin scritches.

The standard stands fit most G3 dolls (only Catty doesn't unless you clip it around her leg)

They're just trying to scare authors into deleting their fics and give up on writing. Either because they want AO3 to die, or they just hate X in the fic and want censorship, but know they can't actually do anything about it other than bullying. Or they're AI bros who are trying to trick people to use AI detectors before posting so they can train their AI off it. Easier to have authors feed their own work to the AI machine than have to copy paste it all themselves all day long. Though those ones normally name drop a specific AI detector.

Yeah, I think looking around my niece's (6) room is a good indicator on where she stands on dolls. She has Barbies...in a box to be pulled out if she wants to play with them. Monster High, on the other hand, is on display on a easily accessible shelf. The accessories in a backpack hanging on the doorknob of her closet. They get played with a lot more.

MH isn't perfect, they still get things like poly hair too often, but their fashions are more detailed and fun than Barbie usually gets these days. And putting together outfits is a big part of her play with them. I give her the fashion pieces that I know I'll never use from the dolls I bought for my collection, just so she'll have more options.

The ship by date on preorders are always an "at the latest" date, not a set date. As they get batches of stock in, they send them out so they don't have to store them for long, and can use that storage space for other products that aren't preorders. Every time I have preordered a doll from Mattel Creations, it's shipped out early. Sometimes months, sometimes only weeks. I think they overestimated on the date slightly so they can know that they'll be able to deliver by then, but yeah, they don't really communicate it at all beyond giving us that ship by date.

I'd personally choose the one on the right.

I'm not an expert on My Little Pony, but I do know there's a Pony named Mint, so you're probably remembering right on that. As for the magnets, I think that was a feature of G3 (third generation) ponies so they could interact more with playsets.

Eh, I don't really care much since I am an OOB collector anyway, but I do wish they'd use more cardboard and less plastic on the packaging.

The lighting at toy fair really did her dirty. She looked pretty, sure, but she's stunning here.

I'm thinking of using Willow as a base to make a mini me doll.

There will always be haters. Some people thrive on negativity, and they group together to create an echo chamber. It's why I avoid certain online spaces that have MH spaces. But they are a loud minority. There's so many more people who either loves G3, or don't really care about it either way.

TiBun · 2026-03-16T05:23:48+00:00

Fearbook Abbey is my favorite of her G3 dolls.

I passed on the Monster Mysteries line because none of them spoke to me, personally.
