❤ ❤ ❤ Thanks for the sharing. I'm not into American Girl dolls, but that shop is amazing. I agree with you, Barbie would deserve a shop like that from Mattel! I live in Italy, but 20 years ago I went to San Diego to visit a friend of mine and I went to Los Angeles too. I took a picture near Nicole Kidman star. I loved her in Moulin Rouge! ❤ ❤ ❤
aww thank you so so much for watching!! xoxo the shop is sooooo cool. barbie totally deserves a big fancy shop!!!! omg Italy is so beautiful! I only went once. ahhh thats soo cool you saw Nicoles star!! she is amazing. such a great actress!!! xoxox thank you for watching :) xoxo
Every time I go to LA, I ALWAYS go to Mattel to shop the store. The best time to go is in the fall when they have the holiday tent shop with everything on massive discounts
ahhhhh yes!! I cant wait to go back! oooo fall is a good idea, I will have to go during that time! thank you for letting me know :) xoxo and thank you for watching!!
Awwwww wow!!!! I’m so glad to have been able to show it to you! Isn’t it so magical???? I hope you can find one near you!!! Thank you for watching :) xoxo
🎉❤🎉Thank you for the trip video footage 😊...I never seen it before. Wow it's amazing, maybe oneday I'll take the trip. You look handsome in front of the Hollywood sign😮🎉❤🎉XOXO 😊❤😘... keep up the good work Grant
Awwww I’m so glad to have been able to show you!!! It’s such a cool place! Awwww Jose you’re too sweet!!! Thank you for watching :) I hope you have an amazing week!!! Xoxox
Awesome video Grant!! Gebe is amazing and her outfit is stunning. So exciting to have gone on that trip and have so much fun. I'm so glad you made lots of wonderful memories ❤❤
Omg thank you Terry!!! Isn’t she so stunning! And yes it was a great trip :) I’m glad to have been able to share it! Thank you for watching :) I hope you’re doing well, and I hope your flea market trip was fun!!!!! Xoxo
I really enjoyed the video! Glad you had a great time on your trip! It was really interesting seeing the American Girl store, even though I'm not a fan of them I was impressed by the store design and layout! It definitely needs to be replicated in other doll and toy stores. Love Miss Gene and looking forward to watching your next videos ❤
awwww thank you so so much!!! yes the design and layout is soooo amazing! I hope we get more toy stores on this level! and yes- Gene is such a beauty!!! thank you! xoxoxo
Love your videos, I have this doll, isn’t she beautiful? These dolls portrayed old time movie stars, and the styles they wore in the 30’s 40’s and 50’s I have quite a few of these Gene dolls and some of the other dolls in her collection. Thank you for taking us on this fun trip, I truly enjoyed it. ❤
Gene is so stunning. Their styles are so incredible!! I’m glad you have some of them as well!! I hope to find more soon!! Thank you so much for watching :) I’m glad you enjoyed it!!! Xoxox
When I lived in Las Vegas, there was a FAO Scwartz store in the Forum Shops (inside Caesars Palace) and the entire second level was dedicated to Barbie. They had windows with human size statues of Roman goddesses all with Barbie faces. it was dreamy!
Ahhh!!! love Caesars Palace! how cool they had that... wish they would bring it back! thank you for letting me know. I will have to search for photos! xoxoxo
I gasped when you were walking into the American girl building. It looked so unbelievable!! I NOW need to make a trip to cali to go there. I’m so glad you had a fabulous trip ❤
YES!!! They’re such magical places!!!!! They have stores all over the country too!! Might be another one somewhere even closer to you!! Thank you for watching Colin :) hope you’re doing amazing :) xoxo
hi i love this is mattel store i love pottery class i love yoga class i take it at my college 😊i have 258 subscribers ready now this is haul so much i love this is doll sweet of him send you this is doll i love it 😊have wonderful day my friend you deserve it 😊
Isn’t it so cool!!! And omg pottery and yoga class those sound amazing!!!!! How fun. And congratulations!! Yes it was so sweet of him to send me Gene. Thank you so so much :) I hope you have an amazing weekend!!! Xoxox
I love it! That's definitely on the bucket list, especially now with the American Girl doll store (I've been to the one in Toronto Canada and its amazing, 3 levels!). Glad you and your buddy had fun big guy :D
ahhh yay!!! I hope you do get to go there!!! WOW three levels! that is amazing. the workers there told me that was one of the smaller locations that I went to!!! xoxox
Really enjoyed this video. I am always curious about other brands of collector dolls. The Gene Marshall doll is lovely. I loved your visuals of American Girl store. El Segundo Mattel store is not a Mecca for me even though I collect Barbie: Azusa barbie goes there regularly and I have seen her footage. Mattel has the resources to make that store more of a museum experience and it would be so fun to see older vintage lines curated as part of the store. As you said re. American Girl, it makes you want to buy the dolls even if you don’t collect the line!
awww thank you! im so glad you enjoyed it! yesss its always so fun to learn about new dolls! im glad you feel the same. oooooo yes I have seen her footage too!!! a museum would be INCREDIBLE! hopefully someday! there are some cool exhibits of course. thanks for much for watching :) xoxo
This was such a fun video. Definitely would be bucket lost place to visit. Really neat trip and i hope you were able to find some cool Hollywood souvenirs. Did you know it was originally named Hollywoodland and that there is an entire home underneath the sign? Your gene marshall is absolutely gorgeous and i think all of the gene marshall Dolls look like Hollywood starlets
awww I hope you get to go! it was such a blast! omg I didn't know there was a home under there! thank you for the fun info! I'll have to look into that! and isnt Gene so stunning! she is perfect for Hollywood! thank you for watching :) xoxo
RIGHT! She is so exquisite!!! and ooooo wow how nice. I need to visit the northern part sometime!! such a beautiful state. Thank you for watching, Cher :) I hope you're doing great! xoxo
I don't know if right now is the best moment to do a proper Mattel store or only Barbie store but I don't know why they didn't do something like that in the 90's... 🤔
My friend told my a few years ago they had a Barbie store in Shanghai !!!! I wish they could bring it back. Who knows..maybe someday! Thank you for watching!!! Imagine walking into a Barbie store in the 90s…HEAVEN
Very cool to see the Mattel store. Wish I was there! My shopping mechanism is set right into gear as you film around the store! How do you feel about the "You can be anything" motto? Did you have a hard time choosing a career yourself? Do you feel inspired and encouraged by the line, or is it more like: "You have to be something kids!"? Me I don't feel excited by careers, it's more a 'have to' than a 'want to'. But then, I've always had money problems. Careers are all connected to money, they aren't hobbies or make believe. People don't do them just for fun (I think). And women are expected to work these days anyway, it's not like there's any patriarchs trying to hold us back any more. Quite the opposite. It's you HAVE to pick a career. You HAVE to make-a da money.
awwww hmmmmmmm thats a great question. I think the you can be anything line is great for young kids to get to play out different scenarios with their dolls- but im not sure if it'll actually result in a kid that young deciding on a career path then and there! hahahah they are cute, hopefully kids and parents dont take them toooo seriously and approach it as a way of pressuring kids to start thinking ahead that early. can get discouraging sometimes. but thank you for the great question! very interesting topics. I hope you're doing well :) and thank you for watching! xoxoxo
Looking at American Girl and the shop makes me miss when Barbie had all the wonderful clothing and playsets rooted in reality. I don't like big dolls at all, but you can see the quality in the details.
I live so close to there, they have another outlet at san bernardino where items are 50% i ended up getting the new Monster high school house for half the price 😅🤑
Thank you for this video! I’m heading to America for a week in December and im going to be visiting the American girl store! I’m form Australia and American girl dolls are extremely rare and hard to grab, so this is my dream come ture! I literally bought a extra big suitcase to put as many dolls I want! And the same goes for the Mattel store! as we never get fashion packs and most of the dolls! 😢 This is making me extra excited! 😆🥹
awwww thank you for watching!!! omg thats so exciting!!! omg Australia!! I want to go so bad someday. I love the Veronicas from there. I hope you can get some good deals for the AG dolls here!! I am so so excited for you!!!!!! you'll have to keep me posted once you get to US!!! xoxoxo
The gene doll is so beautiful!!! Also the doll shops were fun to see, I hope to see some old Hollywood movie stars stars some day!
Isn’t she stunning!!! And awww it was sooo cool seeing the stars! I hope you can go someday too:) thank you for watching!!! Xoxox

You're not alone in that opinion.. from a past Gene Marshall doll collector
first
major SLAY.
Oh, so you do wear different colored t-shirts. LOL
