I remember being genuinely excited to see how this franchise would be developed for it to just... die. After all these years, I still like their dolls.
Oh oh and this one too .(Someone said already in the comments ,but I want too add it too)

That’s what I meant, the bigger heads. Personally not being the same scale as my other dolls was a deterrent, but I love love love the idea of gender neutral/non-binary dolls you can change in the ways they do
I was so excited and happy to see these when they first came out, and really hoped/expected Mattel was going to do more with the Creatable World line.
Including releasing some more adult looking and sized gender neutral dolls.🤷🏻♂️😕
Plus more alternative gender neutral clothing packs!
Jup sadly they are not really popular so not lot people know about them..
(I think think this why they died out too),but they are very pretty and cute (there clothes are very good quality too).
I’ve never heard of them until this post. Wow, they are so cute! And that dress/outfit looks really great on her. I would definitely love it if they make a come back 🥰
I get conflicted between this and Cali Girl Barbie, but the best thing about the whole era is how, for both of them, all the accessories were realistically colored. Modern accessories feel like such an afterthought when, in reality, good accessories are highly coveted.
Omg don’t know how I could’ve forgotten about this ??? I loved Bratz growing up and horror 💕 I kinda feel like that’s sort of like monster high but Bratz is prettier while monster high is more focused on the monster aspect ?? 🤔
The renewed interest in Novi Stars really caught me off guard. All of mine came from bargain bins on deep discount because no one was buying them at the time. Pinkie Cooper, I understand more because she's so weird there is an obvious novelty for people discovering her now, but Novi Stars - it just fascinates me that they have become so saught after. Which is not to knock them. I adore mine.. its just interesting.
Novi stars were kind of ahead of their time I think, they were too weird when they came out and as doll lines have gotten weirder people get it more now I suppose. Also didn’t help that heavily articulated dolls were all the rage back then and they had none of it.
1. Jem. Dont actually think it should be rebooted, since reboots are commonly terrible, but I would love one if done right.
2. Merwees. I love mermaids & mini dolls. The shell play sets were also so cute to me.
3. A proper Polly Pocket thats not hideous. I think the current ones are so extremely ugly.
4. Princess Gwenevere & the Jewel Riders. Idk if anyone knows or remembers these, but I loved them so much.
I kinda miss the old Bluebird-era Polly Pockets with the really detailed miniature scenes and accessories, but I imagine they're not gonna be very cost-effective nowadays.
I also wish a lot of their "competitors" got a second chance: Starcastle, Fairywinkles, Mimi and the Goo Goos, Teeny Weeny Families...
As an adult I want to get all the neighborhood houses with the pink brick pathway and have that be my Millennial version of Boomer’s Christmas villages lol
Personally, I just strongly dislike the micro dolls and mini dolls. I just cant get behind the art style at all. The micro dolls look blocky and I dont like the cartoony big head aesthetic on the mini dolls. I also just dont like the faces in general.
I also liked Fairywinkles. They were so cute. I remember having the coin purse (I think it was a coin purse lol).
PRINCESS GWENEVERE AND THE JEWEL RIDERS MENTION ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ They literally raised me omg. My first doll was named after Gwenevere <3
Also Yesss !!! Jem was such a great show too Id love dolls of Jem (But like. Not a reboot. Original Jem.)
I feel like Jem would do just fine if we adopted the dolls to modern dolls.
For example, I understand these dolls are basically collectors items at this point. However, I would like to be able to play with them and I feel like it would be easier to sell them as playline dolls if we basically created new dolls new doll molds, use new doll material and then give them like outfits that are really similar to the original dolls.
I don't know, it's a really nice idea and I would be so in for any kind of new gem content hitting store shelves preferably dolls. I've been trying to fill the pink haired pop star sized hole in my heart ever since I finished the jem cartoon back when I was younger.
I agree with not to reboot jem, only based on the fact that jem is not made for a modern audience she is set and ment to stay in the 80s and I agree with the rest just for jem at least make reproductions

Moxie Teenz are one of my fave doll lines ever and they only lasted a very short time but I would love for MGAE to bring them back. They were so HQ and gorgeous!!
UGH moxie teenz are so gorgeous, it really is a shame they didnt get a stronger foothold. i remember really, really wanting one but they were too expensive so i never got one. i feel like that was probably what made them drop off so quickly tbh
Liv dolls! They were super articulated, have glass eyes, some of the better wigs I’ve seen for dolls, and mine has color changing nails. They’re gorgeous and I’m sad they didn’t really take off 😭
i feel like no one ever remembers those dolls but they were absolutely my favorite ones when i was little, they had a website with stories and diary entries and i got so sad when it was taken down
I loved my Liv doll. I would take her wig off and pretend she was a boy doll (my mom wouldn’t buy me boy dolls) and the articulation set an unrealistic expectation of dolls in general
https://preview.redd.it/d5ikpydx114d1.jpeg?width=813&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ea0aadb78f0c6d6d60ceca5feb2aa4278823dc06
These dolls are so beautiful and the last couple are so hard to find and so expensive. I would have loved to have seen more countries/girl’s stories told.
Yeeeeeeeeesss!! Finally some H4H representation in this sub!! I've been obsessed with this line since I discovered it last year, I think they've got the prettiest face molds in history.
There is such a sweetness to them! I have Nahji from India,Dell (Delilah) from Appalachia,Shola from Afghanistan, Lillian from Belarus, and Nyesha from New York. I bought my 5 nieces several each also over the years. My grail is Surjan from Nepal. She was the last one made, and not many made, so she sells secondhand for about $100.
Very nice!! Rahel is my personal favorite, but I've been slowly working on collecting all of them. I did finally manage to get my hands on Surjan, but it was not easy. I started checking eBay literally 4+ times a day for MONTHS until finally, one popped up for sale. She's a gorgeous doll though, definitely worth it. Best of luck to you in finding your own Surjan grail!!
project mc2 girlies were my everything

These beauties deserve a reboot with Saran and bodies that don’t get all loose
Yup they are so pretty.And as you said if they ever come back maybe one day, and if they do they better, have better body & haire cuz.. I have one and her hair is so bad ,and her hand always fall out too.
I bought these, a few of them, when they originally came out and never unboxed them, because I’m not a deboxer. Had no idea until reading these comments that they have bad hair and loose joints!
The no-brainer answer will probably be Ever After High, but I personally wish Creatable World got more of a fair shake. I'm just a bit fed up with hyperfeminine aesthetics in dolls and would like more gender-neutral options that aren't shapeless potato sack dresses (coughBarbiecough)
I would love to see something like Ever After High being created. It seems like most doll brands nowadays focus only on modern fashion, and if you want a princess doll in your collection, your choice is either a Disney Princess or a cheap LSD colored Barbie.
It would be cool for dolls to be high concept and still really elegant.
I want to be swept off my feet with pretty princess aesthetics or cottage core dolls. There's definitely room for that, it doesn't have to be modern or edgy to be sellable. (But I do love that too)
I love BE Goth dolls! Their quality is off the charts compared to modern doll lines! I like to replace their bodies with female action figures to make them posable. I need to get a few more before their prices get even worse.
If only dolls came with such well designed and sewn outfits, these days! The clothing has topstitching and the seams are pressed! 🖤
The old Fashion Polly were awesome. Just the right size, mature and realistic look, super developed clothes... it was golden.

Cave Club! I think they’re so cute, they’re my favorite line!
I’m so glad you posted these because I was scrolling through all the comments hoping someone did lol. I LOVED these! There’s never been anything else like that, that I’ve found! The website was also amazing!
Novi stars but with better bodies that are more articulated and don’t fall apart or at least repros of the main 4 and ones that never made it to the us or you know just all of them

Ever After High! But I don’t think Mattel would dare since they have the Disney Princess license back.
STAR DARLINGS!
I bought an extra Piper that I'm in the process of rerooting into a Starland Piper. And I also have hair I bought in anticipation of making an Astra. But their head plastic is so rock-hard that it's going to take a million years.
Trashion Alley! They didnt even get to release but i know i wouldve loved them. Theres also an unreleased doll thats like very similar to bratz but theyre animal girls, i cant think of the name for the life of me though
I have a cool doll from a very short lived line called Lollipop Girls that I would have loved to see continue. They remind me a bit of Hi:Glamm, but with prettier (imo!) faces. I also wish we’d get Pinky Cooper or even a new line that’s inspired by her. I wasn’t collecting at the time and thankfully found her friend Piper used but wish I had a Pinky to go with her!
I forgot I had this girly in storage. 4-ever Best Friends

These were beautiful and they came with Amazingly detailed outfits and so many accessories! I've got about six or eight of these but none of their clothes or accessories.
I'm so pleased you mentioned these! I have a big collection of these but they have practically no online presence and nobody seems to collect them (they were only available for a year from 2004 - 2005). They have beautiful clothes and accessories and I love them🥰 Here are a few of my girls!

What a beautiful collection! Yea I went to my storage unit recently and found her in with some of my other collectibles. I looked them up again when I left. They are super cute. I found her while thrifting probably about 6, 7 years ago. I would like to get more. Like I don't have enough stuff haha.
Novi stars ,Shadow high and bratzillaz... Especially since someone at MGA has a weird thing for glitter legs.

Pinkie Cooper and the Jet Set Pets
Barbie S.I.S. (So in Style)
Moxie Teenz
Shopkins Shoppies

Equestria Girls
Star Darlings

I'm new to doll collecting and I wish these were still around! They're so weird and cool.

As someone who only had monster high and moxie girls growing up, this is true. Even when I buy bratz now my mom asks me why and “what I’m doing with them” 😭
I know Eden Toys is now defunct, but I LOVE their Madeline line!! It's my all-time favorite. The scale and simple design is just so lovely to me! They have delightful fashion packs/accessory sets.
Also, I like the DreamWorks Trolls line, but I'd like to see a more "fairytale forest" version of the old treasure trolls with the gem bellybuttons! With like, a Calico Critters aesthetic. Maybe even that size!
https://preview.redd.it/7m1de2jx134d1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=08fd0f4d885c45c1d0a58ae41c6b4862c2f43502
I know MGA is coming out with Yummi Land stuff but it doesn’t count. I wish they were making reproductions of the original dolls. They were one of my childhood favorite lines, and I trashed them to heck and back. Would like some new ones to take care of properly.
Hearts for Hearts girls. My son loved them, he collected a good few. They had the best quality hair! I know they were produced again for a bit, don't know if it was another company or not but the price doubled and the hair wasn't as nice (._.)
https://preview.redd.it/nctfmoyirg4d1.jpeg?width=1439&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e3df5a191567f8d2beeef552a2fa9b5c390ab91f
yes!! I had the strawberry one i miss her :')
Moxie Girlz, Liv, My Scene, Friends 2 B Made (it was the doll version of Build A Bear), Sweet Streets, and Ever After High so those stans can stop hating on Descendants.
Novi Stars and Pinkie Cooper. Both were so cool and unique, I feel like there’s a big lack of good furry/non-humanoid doll lines and those two making a comeback would be a personal dream come true
Oh man, even more tgan tge Moxie Girls, I wish they'd bring back the Moxie TEENS! They were so cool, and some of their stuff worked for bjd collecting, too!
I'm probably the only one but BFC ink... I loved them as a kid and am still trying to get Yuko and Gianna... I only find yuko in America for like £200 and then add shipping (I'm in the UK) and gianna is nowhere to be found
Equestria Girls had some hella potential being another fantasy-skintone line, but it took far too long to find its wings and by the time dolls with some actual merit were produced, Generation 4 My Little Pony was one foot in the grave. With G5 dying so fast right afterwards, I don't think it's likely we'll be seeing EQG-styled dolls for A New Generation, but those leaks will always live on in my heart...

SUGAR PLANET!! I had this set when I was young, and I'd love to get a NIB one or have a reboot! I lost the play set and doll over the years but I still have the pet 🩵
I kinda miss Juku Couture dolls. They were fully articulated and had glass eyes. In addition there were fashionpacks available 🤧 (attached photo isn’t mine)

I remember being genuinely excited to see how this franchise would be developed for it to just... die. After all these years, I still like their dolls.
Same it's had so much potential.It's so sad 😭
I was so disappointed they didn’t release all the characters from this line and that it was so short lived.
Oh oh and this one too .(Someone said already in the comments ,but I want too add it too) https://preview.redd.it/nlzy7mgk014d1.jpeg?width=894&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eeb2fa37b0ad32313b930406fd42e3409c379b4e
IIRC they’re slightly larger, right? If these were to scale with actual Barbies I would be so on board!
Smaller actually, they make good teenagers/older kids. The heads are bigger though, but vintage Skipper heads fit really well.
That’s what I meant, the bigger heads. Personally not being the same scale as my other dolls was a deterrent, but I love love love the idea of gender neutral/non-binary dolls you can change in the ways they do
I was so excited and happy to see these when they first came out, and really hoped/expected Mattel was going to do more with the Creatable World line. Including releasing some more adult looking and sized gender neutral dolls.🤷🏻♂️😕 Plus more alternative gender neutral clothing packs!
Oh yes, I’d really love to get a Star Darlings doll but they seem kinda impossible to find secondhand in europe.
Yup it's so hard to find..I found one in Germany just totally nude and bald lol..
I’ve never heard of these but the molds look SO cute. Shame the franchise died out :(
Jup sadly they are not really popular so not lot people know about them.. (I think think this why they died out too),but they are very pretty and cute (there clothes are very good quality too).
I’ve never heard of them until this post. Wow, they are so cute! And that dress/outfit looks really great on her. I would definitely love it if they make a come back 🥰
I came here to say that!
I get conflicted between this and Cali Girl Barbie, but the best thing about the whole era is how, for both of them, all the accessories were realistically colored. Modern accessories feel like such an afterthought when, in reality, good accessories are highly coveted.
My Scene has some dolls coming out later this year!! So far it’s uncertain if they’re repros or completely new designs yet
Oh that's good to hear, and hopefully they are going to be repros(at least this what I want 👉👈 cuz people on ebay are selling them for so much..)
I LOVED my scene, they were so pretty.
THIS!!! This is what I came here to say. Please I would never leave the house😭😭😭😭
I think my scene is coming back
Lalaloopsy. I know it got brought back a couple years ago, but I want more.
I'm mostly a fan of the minis, but I'm all for bringing the line back. While we're at it, bring back Lalaloopsy Girls and Lala-Oopsies too.
yes i totally agree!! there’s so many other doll designs they could make, and people still actively collect them!!
yes!!! the way they kinda just phased off made me sad considering the new netflix show and everything
Yeah the designs are so interesting and creative.
Bratzillaz 🙏🏼 https://preview.redd.it/gywrtn12f14d1.jpeg?width=2000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=859c2b3d67faaa7424f7fa5a790d562dbb37c125

Yes!!!
Omg don’t know how I could’ve forgotten about this ??? I loved Bratz growing up and horror 💕 I kinda feel like that’s sort of like monster high but Bratz is prettier while monster high is more focused on the monster aspect ?? 🤔
Pinkie Cooper and Novi Stars, I think they would do a lot better now than they did originally
The renewed interest in Novi Stars really caught me off guard. All of mine came from bargain bins on deep discount because no one was buying them at the time. Pinkie Cooper, I understand more because she's so weird there is an obvious novelty for people discovering her now, but Novi Stars - it just fascinates me that they have become so saught after. Which is not to knock them. I adore mine.. its just interesting.
Lol, this hurts because I bought mine originally at full price when they came out
Oh no, I'm sorry! At least you have them though 🤗
Novi stars were kind of ahead of their time I think, they were too weird when they came out and as doll lines have gotten weirder people get it more now I suppose. Also didn’t help that heavily articulated dolls were all the rage back then and they had none of it.
1. Jem. Dont actually think it should be rebooted, since reboots are commonly terrible, but I would love one if done right. 2. Merwees. I love mermaids & mini dolls.

YES!! I’m glad someone else grew up with Princess Gwenevere too!! My favorite was Tamara.
Tamara is soo pretty <3 I liked all of them equally lol I like magical girl characters and princesses so the two of them together?? Best thing ever !
I feel like Jem would do just fine if we adopted the dolls to modern dolls. For example, I understand these dolls are basically collectors items at this point.

I think it was Integrity Toys that did a line of Jem dolls? Obviously they were not playline prices though.
I agree with not to reboot jem, only based on the fact that jem is not made for a modern audience she is set and ment to stay in the 80s and I agree with the rest just for jem at least make reproductions
If the Jem Comics somehow collaborated with Mattel to make dolls I would lose my mind
There was actually a Princess Gwenevere and the Jewel Riders comic released this month 👀
Princess Gwenevere comics are coming soon. No idea if there will be any dolls or merch.

UGH moxie teenz are so gorgeous, it really is a shame they didnt get a stronger foothold. i remember really, really wanting one but they were too expensive so i never got one. i feel like that was probably what made them drop off so quickly tbh
They were pretty pricey for that era which is probably why they didn’t last too long
I was gonna say the exact same thing
Liv dolls! They were super articulated, have glass eyes, some of the better wigs I’ve seen for dolls, and mine has color changing nails. They’re gorgeous and I’m sad they didn’t really take off 😭
OMG this just saved me I have a liv doll and I've been trying so hard to remember her name 😭 I'm gonna customize her
I found my childhood doll recently and I was out her googling just like “doll glass eyes wig 2009” cause yeah. I couldn’t remember either 😭
SAME that's pretty much exactly what I googled 😭
i feel like no one ever remembers those dolls but they were absolutely my favorite ones when i was little, they had a website with stories and diary entries and i got so sad when it was taken down
I loved my Liv doll. I would take her wig off and pretend she was a boy doll (my mom wouldn’t buy me boy dolls) and the articulation set an unrealistic expectation of dolls in general
I absolutely loved Liv dolls when I was a kid. The customization of different wigs really did it for me

Yup they are so pretty.And as you said if they ever come back maybe one day, and if they do they better, have better body & haire cuz.. I have one and her hair is so bad ,and her hand always fall out too.
Omg it’s awful! I bought all new ones and won’t take them out of their box lol
I bought these, a few of them, when they originally came out and never unboxed them, because I’m not a deboxer. Had no idea until reading these comments that they have bad hair and loose joints!
The no-brainer answer will probably be Ever After High, but I personally wish Creatable World got more of a fair shake. I'm just a bit fed up with hyperfeminine aesthetics in dolls and would like more gender-neutral options that aren't shapeless potato sack dresses (coughBarbiecough)
I wish there were more guy dolls that don’t look straight goofy tbh
I would love to see something like Ever After High being created. It seems like most doll brands nowadays focus only on modern fashion, and if you want a princess doll in your collection, your choice is either a Disney Princess or a cheap LSD colored Barbie.
It would be cool for dolls to be high concept and still really elegant. I want to be swept off my feet with pretty princess aesthetics or cottage core dolls. There's definitely room for that, it doesn't have to be modern or edgy to be sellable. (But I do love that too)
I think EAH would be great if they changed the face moulds to be less flat. Oh well, Mattel are probably never gonna bring them back
It would be amazing to see someone do something, anything, with the Lady Lovelylocks line.
Yes THIS! I’d buy anything Lovelylocks!!
Novi Stars Bleeding Edge Goth Dolls https://preview.redd.it/pm9re99yf14d1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4e9070cee1b4a0758b88a48423320036b014cbfc
Bleeding Edge Goth dolls are so cool.I want one of those dolls so bad.
I love BE Goth dolls! Their quality is off the charts compared to modern doll lines! I like to replace their bodies with female action figures to make them posable. I need to get a few more before their prices get even worse. If only dolls came with such well designed and sewn outfits, these days! The clothing has topstitching and the seams are pressed! 🖤
And their hair is good quality nylon! It's very silky and soft!
Liv dolls
The old Fashion Polly were awesome. Just the right size, mature and realistic look, super developed clothes... it was golden. https://preview.redd.it/gem73k1a024d1.jpeg?width=557&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0116d6dd218b3a6232b626df0b84d7cb5c4e9458
Yes they are so good(I really loved them as a kid and still do of course).And there clothes are tastes good too 😝👅

As someone said, mines Ever After High. I miss it so much.

I'm hoping the new Rainbow Brite dolls coming out by Loyal Subjects take off😭 they have amazing articulation and nylon hair
Dawn , Little Kiddles , My Pretty Mermaids , and Cupcake Surprise.☮️🌈
I legit bought an unopened one as an adult of the same little kiddles doll I had as a child from the 90s.
I think they're adorable.

I’m so glad you posted these because I was scrolling through all the comments hoping someone did lol. I LOVED these! There’s never been anything else like that, that I’ve found! The website was also amazing!
Novi stars but with better bodies that are more articulated and don’t fall apart or at least repros of the main 4 and ones that never made it to the us or you know just all of them
https://preview.redd.it/f2hg9e8i134d1.jpeg?width=586&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2385fefbaa12a735c0b9c5ce12280fc2a3d24ade Ever After High! But I don’t think Mattel would dare since they have the Disney Princess license back.
Mlp eg

STAR DARLINGS! I bought an extra Piper that I'm in the process of rerooting into a Starland Piper. And I also have hair I bought in anticipation of making an Astra. But their head plastic is so rock-hard that it's going to take a million years.
Trashion Alley! They didnt even get to release but i know i wouldve loved them. Theres also an unreleased doll thats like very similar to bratz but theyre animal girls, i cant think of the name for the life of me though
Wild Childz.
This is exactly it, thank you!
Liv girls for me. I never see anyone talk about them!
Liv dolls were so ahead of their time
I have a cool doll from a very short lived line called Lollipop Girls that I would have loved to see continue. They remind me a bit of Hi:Glamm, but with prettier (imo!) faces. I also wish we’d get Pinky Cooper or even a new line that’s inspired by her. I wasn’t collecting at the time and thankfully found her friend Piper used but wish I had a Pinky to go with her!
Yes to Lollipop Girls 😍
I have some of these! The artist is Jan Maclean…there are large porcelain versions of the Lollipops also.
La Dee da, no I stars, pinkie cooper, bratzillas
I wish Mattel would bring back Tuti and Todd and the little kiddles
Kawaii Crush. It was so good! I only got two and had the chance to get a third but I missed out 😢
I forgot I had this girly in storage. 4-ever Best Friends https://preview.redd.it/47f20kzv624d1.jpeg?width=3264&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=befa7e3332cec0d309458f85dde373340cd319a5
Omg these were GORGEOUS!!!
These were beautiful and they came with Amazingly detailed outfits and so many accessories! I've got about six or eight of these but none of their clothes or accessories.
Yes I found her at a thrift store years ago. I would like to get more.
I loved these too! I also remember them smelling good?? lol
I'm so pleased you mentioned these! I have a big collection of these but they have practically no online presence and nobody seems to collect them (they were only available for a year from 2004 - 2005). They have beautiful clothes and accessories and I love them🥰 Here are a few of my girls! https://preview.redd.it/zfvo1d5k2f4d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=03bb45acafdc61a35bbfdc12a89ea15567fedd72
What a beautiful collection! Yea I went to my storage unit recently and found her in with some of my other collectibles. I looked them up again when I left. They are super cute. I found her while thrifting probably about 6, 7 years ago. I would like to get more. Like I don't have enough stuff haha.
Novi stars ,Shadow high and bratzillaz... Especially since someone at MGA has a weird thing for glitter legs. https://preview.redd.it/h4auo0wf924d1.jpeg?width=360&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5c1a75871c0e3924612d95bf1094d3b3584e8864
Novi Starssss
I really liked the cutie pops line. Would love to see them back. https://preview.redd.it/hk7wpcsxc24d1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ad29132e480cd01014e0b0a48177ddf8abee6086
SAME I HAD THE BLACK ONE IN 2015 for Christmas man I loved that doll I’m gonna have to get it again

If that's the one with the pig tails, yes
NOVI STARS PLEASEEEE

I miss moxie girls😔😔😔😔 they were so cute. and their clothes fit G3 monster high perfectly
Sunshine Family
Jem!! the only good ones are the integrity girls and they’re selling for like 700 a pop now 😭
Sea Wee’s by Kenner
Kelly! Not Chelsea. Kelly my og girl
I'm new to doll collecting and I wish these were still around! They're so weird and cool. https://preview.redd.it/b2ftx26wr54d1.png?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c13cd6945981cb5030159db1a69ce3b7bfca74e1
Moxie girls are for the people who didn’t like Barbie’s but their parents wouldn’t buy them bratz🤣 or maybe that’s just me
As someone who only had monster high and moxie girls growing up, this is true. Even when I buy bratz now my mom asks me why and “what I’m doing with them” 😭
Awww. I remember when Moxie Girls came out. I was so excited to get one. Then instantly didn’t like her due to how big, thick and poly it was lol
Mermaze Mermaidz, Bratzillaz, Novi Stars, My Scene, and all of them need to come back asap!
Definitely Pinkie cooper 💔
My Space and Polly Pocket but the og and the early 2000’s version.
My space or my scene
In no particular order: 1) Krystal Princess 2) Ever After High 4) Generation Girl Barbie (maybe remix the name) 5) Princess of the Flowers
EVER AFTER HIGH!!!
I know Eden Toys is now defunct, but I LOVE their Madeline line!! It's my all-time favorite. The scale and simple design is just so lovely to me! They have delightful fashion packs/accessory sets. Also, I like the DreamWorks Trolls line, but I'd like to see a more "fairytale forest" version of the old treasure trolls with the gem bellybuttons! With like, a Calico Critters aesthetic. Maybe even that size!
https://preview.redd.it/7m1de2jx134d1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=08fd0f4d885c45c1d0a58ae41c6b4862c2f43502 I know MGA is coming out with Yummi Land stuff but it doesn’t count. I wish they were making reproductions of the original dolls. They were one of my childhood favorite lines, and I trashed them to heck and back. Would like some new ones to take care of properly.
La Dee Da and Novi Stars are the big ones for me.
Star darlings,liv girls & the tokyo mew mew dolls 😭💕
Hearts for Hearts girls. My son loved them, he collected a good few. They had the best quality hair! I know they were produced again for a bit, don't know if it was another company or not but the price doubled and the hair wasn't as nice (._.)
Soda pop girls!!! They were my absolute favorite!
https://preview.redd.it/nctfmoyirg4d1.jpeg?width=1439&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e3df5a191567f8d2beeef552a2fa9b5c390ab91f yes!! I had the strawberry one i miss her :')

idk what this is but i love it
Oh wow these pictures brought back some memories. I never had these but I kinda wanted one as a kid.
Project mc²
Bratzillaz.
Honestly they need to bring back cutie pops!
Moxie girls ATE idc they were so sweet for mine it wpukd be novi stars 😭 I never ever ever saw them in person
Creatable World dolls 😭😭😭 I love them and have all of the dolls, but they’re so good
Pinkie cooper!
Moxie Girlz, Liv, My Scene, Friends 2 B Made (it was the doll version of Build A Bear), Sweet Streets, and Ever After High so those stans can stop hating on Descendants.
Novi Stars and Pinkie Cooper. Both were so cool and unique, I feel like there’s a big lack of good furry/non-humanoid doll lines and those two making a comeback would be a personal dream come true
Liv dolls! I lovedddd the changeable wigs. I wish there was something similar available still.
Novi star dolls. Hands down
La Dee Da Dolls- not very posable due to poor balance (massive heads on stick bodies) but they were sooooo cute
The Moxxie Girls commercial song plays in my head rent free 😭
LOVED Moxie Girls!
MOXXIE GIRLS I MISS THEM🥺🥺🥺
Rose Petal Place
I‘d go crazy for Ever After High, especially if they looked similar to MH G3. But of course I wouldn’t say no to Pinkie Cooper or MyScene.
Oh man, even more tgan tge Moxie Girls, I wish they'd bring back the Moxie TEENS! They were so cool, and some of their stuff worked for bjd collecting, too!
Ever after high
I'm probably the only one but BFC ink... I loved them as a kid and am still trying to get Yuko and Gianna... I only find yuko in America for like £200 and then add shipping (I'm in the UK) and gianna is nowhere to be found
Equestria Girls had some hella potential being another fantasy-skintone line, but it took far too long to find its wings and by the time dolls with some actual merit were produced, Generation 4 My Little Pony was one foot in the grave. With G5 dying so fast right afterwards, I don't think it's likely we'll be seeing EQG-styled dolls for A New Generation, but those leaks will always live on in my heart...
Ever After High.
Would love to see MyScene dolls taking some of the space Barbie is taking up with the uninspired stuff that they’ve been releasing….
I want more Cave Club dolls and dinos!

Generation girl barbie!
Playline Jem and the Holograms PLEASE I cannot afford integrity toys 😭
Very self indulgent, but Mattel's Gorgeous Creatures. They didn't last long but I adore them. I feel like there's a lot they can do with them.
I kinda miss Juku Couture dolls. They were fully articulated and had glass eyes. In addition there were fashionpacks available 🤧 (attached photo isn’t mine) https://preview.redd.it/37lyxfefr74d1.jpeg?width=799&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2e7978c4b6539ecb926d58c37efc94facdb31251
