At least I'm glad Mattel is elevating their quality back slowly, and hopefully we'll see the day they return back the Flawless 90s/60s Barbie Quality again! I do like Glinda's dress silhouette, but I wish it was made with nice satin or flowy tulle instead of that plasticky fabric normally used on Modern Holiday Barbie.
The background of the doll’s box is a reference to both Glinda’s bubble (behind her in the box) and the window from where Elphaba jumps during Defying Gravity (behind her in the box). A detail that I LOVEEEEE
This particular material of Glinda's dress is what we'd use to line dress and give it structure at my job (making children's dresses). It's basically a stiff poly taffeta that you'd use UNDER the outer shell of the fabric. It's sad that they're using it as dress fabric. It's also incredibly cheap. I understand that they're probably using it because it holds the structure well, but I think They could've found a nicer Poly Taffeta to do the same thing with.
Glinda's dress looks like one of those vinyl tablecloths you use at children's birthday parties. The kind that are meant to take a mess and be thrown away.
I'm a huge fan of the original Wizard of Oz book series, I read all of the books as a kid and I LOVE them even to this day. I also like the Wicked musical and I'm looking forward to the film so much!
I’ve purchased these dolls and I only paid £38 each doll. And that was from the Mattel Creations website. So wherever you got these from the company is making a big profit. I love watching your videos 💖
I honestly really like the goth dresses on Elfaba's dolls, and I love the black and purple color scheme with her outfits, so I definitely want to get her dolls if I can!🖤💜
I saw the show in 2010 in high school and I loved it! Saw the film 11/23 and wanna see it again and again! My friend and I were crying by the credits 😅
The dolls are cute but so pricey for the quality. I also love Wicked and will give the movie a chance because this is my childhood favorite musical and my mom wants to see it too.
I like the dolls as well, but yeah, they're not deluxe. I want to get the regular Elphaba (luv that outfit more). 💚 I also like the Elphaba wearing the Shiz uniform.
I got deluxe Glinda. I would’ve paid a lot of money for the bubble dress doll so i didn’t feel ripped off but Elphaba doll…. Your right about the fit it’s almost the same as the regular Elphaba dolls. I think im gonna TRY to wait for part 2 to get maybe Good deed doll?! We’re getting bubble dress because that version of Glinda appears in part 1 but I’m excited to see part 2 Elphie.
@@CallumsBarbiesGirl, everyone knows that Mattel’s dolls recently have been boring, cheap, and insanely overpriced. Even Joey said they were cheaply made. The only one glazing here is you lmao
At least, Elphabath doll has extra accessories featured that can try to justify the price, but when I'm looking to the Glinda doll, I feel more like those dolls should be around 30-40. I don't see the reason to overprice these dolls like for the movie Barbie (I don't wanna know how much they will cost in Europe) other than : "They come in bigger boxes and we wrote Deluxe on it".
I’m not too worried about the quality since I will be keeping these in their box 😂 I did buy their shiz outfits and unboxed those as a compromise. They were $25 US dollars and I do believe they are better quality!
Hi Joey 👋🏻 did you get the new holiday belle doll from the Disney Store? If yes, please review her and give us your opinions… thank you very much for your channel…💖🌸
Albeit the recall, I found these on Amazon at the MSRP and I asked for Elphaba this holiday season. I just think they didn't do Ari justice as a doll. I'm sorry but that's just my opinion. (For those wondering, the recall was over a misprint on the packaging that led people to an adult website and MSRP was $24.99USD for the basic and $39.99USD for the deluxe.)
Thank you for your review! It really helps me soooo much because I love Wicked and want to get at least one set of dolls. So I'll pass on these two for now, but eyeing the school dressed Elphaba with Madame Morrible from Mattel Creations exclusive. Do you know if they'll make a Prince Fiyero?
I watched some of the original play with Kristen Chenoweth and Idina Menzel a few years ago but I didn't get far past maybe 5 minutes. I have mixed feelings on the movie but we'll see.
Do these deluxe dolls have more articulation compared to the basic version? Racking my brains to think of how else Mattel could justify the price difference. Fabric choices and raw edges seem rather disappointing.
Im a HUGE Wicked fan and I do have the Glinda signature collection doll from 2018 and her doll is really pretty. But this Ariana doll has such a cheap quality dress for 40 dollars and, as a Brazilian, for me it’s SUPER expensive… I’m really sad about it😥
When it comes to the deluxe dolls you’re paying for the stand and the packaging! It’s stupid I know but those boxes do cost more to produce than the mostly plastic ones do. I’m not defending it I’m not excusing it and I fully agree that without the “extra little thing” they are just the regular dolls for way more money. I just know that’s where your money is going 😒😒
I seen the wicked Broadway play so many times but it’s hard to count, but I think the dolls absolutely stunning. And I’m on the hunt for them. PS love your channel. Watch your videos all the time. Love, Queen Harley 👑🩵🩷
Ouch, I'm sorry you have to pay 50 pounds for these dolls. That's $65 in US dollars. In the US we pay USD $40 each for these dolls. For me, they are "ok" for $40, I think $29.99 would be better for the quality. The last 4-5 years I've just refused to give Mattel more than $40 for a doll. I bought the MH Rupaul for $50, but that's my top. Mattel is getting too crazy with their pricing.
tnh. their design, on both dolls, is gorgeous!! but, oh my God, that awfull "fabric"!!! WHY??!! on a colector doll?? this line has been so disapointing so far!! even the Fiero doll has molded hair when they could use rooted hair!!!all of them are beautiful but they don't worth the price, periodt!!
Joey you are the best thank you for sharing this video about Ariana grande dolls collection she very beautiful awesome amazing dolls which company makes those dolls? Cuz they did a fantastic job
The musical was very abliest like Very abliest like disgustingly so, and the musical removed many important things from the book, but the movie has made a great deal of changes to make it Much better including working with Nessa Rose's actress to rewrite and casting her as an actual wheelchair user which is the first time in the shows history so yeah I'm excited for the movie and even though its my dream to see a live musical one day I'm definitely not giving my money to the current wicked show, why give money to an extremely abliest cause that also deliberately erased all the queer aspects of the book. Definitely reading the book though
I kind of wish the Glinda doll didn’t look so much like Arianna because I don’t like Arianna (sorry Arianna fans) and because it makes it hard to separate her from the character she’s playing. I also just think the dolls always look kind of weird in general when they try to make them look like the actresses, certainly not as bad as before but not good either. They’re also just too overpriced imo. Mattel seems to slowly be bringing back the quality though which hopefully continues fingers crossed.
I am fascinated by dolls, but more than that I love listening to Joey talk about them. You can tell his passion.
I love mc donalds Barbie
I love them tough I am 12 I love hair

I saw Wicked the first time I visited London. It was truly magical!
So cute!! I also absolutely love the Nessarose doll. Her wheelchair is so pretty.

I loved the book. The play was okay. I'm interested in the movie.

I love wicked I have already ordered the dolls I’m in Australia that will be coming next week
Contemplating the Elphaba, to get the broom and extras, like the cape. Great reviews! Thanks!
I’m so excited for the film. The film will be so good.
Wicked is one of my favorite musicals of all time, and I wish nothing more than that they'd made the dresses more high quality
I neither care about Wicked nor want these dolls for myself but I'm always curious about your opinions!
Omg I am LIVING for that nail color!❤
I loved the book. I saw the play when it first came to Chicago. I hope the movie will be good. The dolls are cute
I honestly really like the goth dresses on Elfaba's dolls, and I love the black and purple color scheme with her outfits, so I definitely want to get her dolls if I can!🖤💜
I saw that wicked Broadway show too, and defy gravity and popular are very good songs and I’m so excited for the film coming out on November 27th
I saw the show in 2010 in high school and I loved it! Saw the film 11/23 and wanna see it again and again! My friend and I were crying by the credits 😅
I've seen the film and, it's amazing ❤ I'm getting my dolls for Christmas 🎄 I can't wait
just bought the singing glinda and kristi yamaguchi made to move 😍 i don't really care about the fashion because i can make one myself 😅
I agree for the price, the dolls especially the dresses look cheap. The holiday Barbie dolls werew so high quality.
Really getting sick of Mattel charging so much for subpar quality.
Glindasdress might not feel nice but it looks nice and will look nice on my doll shelve,I love green witchy🥰
The dolls are cute but so pricey for the quality. I also love Wicked and will give the movie a chance because this is my childhood favorite musical and my mom wants to see it too.
Been watching your videos for 4 years 💞
I like the dolls as well, but yeah, they're not deluxe.
I want to get the regular Elphaba (luv that outfit more). 💚
I also like the Elphaba wearing the Shiz uniform.
I had to put a petti coat under Glinda it definitely makes a difference
I'm tempted to buy the Glinda deluxe doll,for Christmas.
But she is so expensive. Here's hoping she will go down for black friday.
If you live in the US, Target is doing a 25% off one toy sale and I managed to get Glinda for $30 after taxes. I think that’s much better of a price
I’m so excited I saw all the trailers for the wicked did your math test
Cant wait for the Fiyero doll!
He's exclusive to Target. I'm in the UK so I'll never get him 😢
@TamsinHartnell omg...no way! I do wonder if they'll give rights to have it released in a store in the UK. So many people miss out this way...

We’re getting bubble dress because that version of Glinda appears in part 1 but I’m excited to see part 2 Elphie.
I think the dolls are boring, but I appreciate the simple unboxing video
Of course you do! Because you think everything that mattel does now is boring. Typical mga glazer 😴
@@CallumsBarbiesGirl, everyone knows that Mattel’s dolls recently have been boring, cheap, and insanely overpriced. Even Joey said they were cheaply made. The only one glazing here is you lmao
They looks cute, I’ll get them
I think the photos on the front are actually paintings/concept art. A lot of movie merch is modeled after final concept art.
I love the doll❤❤❤❤

Yes they are expensive but Glinda is soo beautiful omg 💖💖💖💖💚

Your so lucky to have found them I still haven’t seen any yet 😭😭😭
Hi Joey 👋🏻 did you get the new holiday belle doll from the Disney Store? If yes, please review her and give us your opinions… thank you very much for your channel…💖🌸
I love Ariana Grande a lot, and I also love the wicked merchandise and dolls

Hope you didn't throw away the boxes, Joey. Mattel's been recalling them and they're rare collector's items now!
Iykyk ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
What did you did you think about those gold old wizard of Oz dolls back in there 1960
Thank you for your review! It really helps me soooo much because I love Wicked and want to get at least one set of dolls. So I'll pass on these two for now, but eyeing the school dressed Elphaba with Madame Morrible from Mattel Creations exclusive. Do you know if they'll make a Prince Fiyero?
I am not a fan of Wicked.
I am a fan of dolls.
I am a fan of you!
I love Glinda
I love these
Girlfriend purchased both glinda and elphaba deluxe dolls today from her local toyworld store loves these paid $99.99 each
That’s at lot! Hope she likes them
Love love love love them doll's ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I watched some of the original play with Kristen Chenoweth and Idina Menzel a few years ago but I didn't get far past maybe 5 minutes. I have mixed feelings on the movie but we'll see.
Fan!
Im not a fan of plays so wont be seeing the movie at least not in cinamas .
Do you have any barbies or other fashion dolls from Wizard of oz .
Just thinking about how they’re gonna cost when they get here in Brazil gives me anxiety.
Omggg iam a big fan cant belive this was only 4 mins ago!!!!!????
Put out before the movies are relased.
0:28 I believe her last name in pronounced “Er-ee-vo”… I think
I just saw they made a The Birds Barbie back in the day. Tell me you have it!
The dolls are pretty but Glenda's eyebrows are off, and the clothes are too cheap for the price. I don't think I will be getting any of these.
I like the Elphaba doll very much!🥰
Do these deluxe dolls have more articulation compared to the basic version? Racking my brains to think of how else Mattel could justify the price difference. Fabric choices and raw edges seem rather disappointing.
If they make dorothy gale doll that would be awesome.
finally!!! 🤍

ARIANA!!!!! What are you doin here loved that reference
Awesome
When it comes to the deluxe dolls you’re paying for the stand and the packaging! It’s stupid I know but those boxes do cost more to produce than the mostly plastic ones do. I’m not defending it I’m not excusing it and I fully agree that without the “extra little thing” they are just the regular dolls for way more money. I just know that’s where your money is going 😒😒
If this is produce under Barbie line for sure more pricey
🎉🎉🎉
I seen the wicked Broadway play so many times but it’s hard to count, but I think the dolls absolutely stunning. And I’m on the hunt for them. PS love your channel. Watch your videos all the time.
Love, Queen Harley 👑🩵🩷
I have the basic doll I have the singing Gilinda and fashion elfie
Hi im a fan
Meh. I have Mattel Dorothy, Lion, Tin Man, Glinda, and Munchkins dolls. I wanted a qitch, but this aint it. Maybe if theres a good sale after Xmas
Glinda's dress is giving disposable tablecloth
I got my dolls of matell they were like £35 each and 9 shipping
The dolls are so cute
Ouch, I'm sorry you have to pay 50 pounds for these dolls. That's $65 in US dollars. In the US we pay USD $40 each for these dolls.

Technically you paid an extra 20 pounds for the cape, the stand, and the broom. But the sentiment still stands.
❤
I mean the Arianna doll lookish so somewhat like her
tnh. their design, on both dolls, is gorgeous!! but, oh my God, that awfull "fabric"!!! WHY??!! on a colector doll?? this line has been so disapointing so far!! even the Fiero doll has molded hair when they could use rooted hair!!!all of them are beautiful but they don't worth the price, periodt!!
They must cost more in the UK, at Walmart in the US they're both $39.99.
In Ireland, they're 60 euros.
The box links to a wrong NSFW website. Probably gonna be a collector's item soon once it gets recalled 😅
Guess what? 😂😂😂
I think I like them more after your review, but still think they are overpriced. On the other hand, I am more interested in getting Fiyero Ken doll.
Oo wau!
❤❤❤
I'm totally skipping over these. Terribly overpriced. I just got the basic ones
I.bought Elphaba and love her. Souch a beautiful face sculpt
✌🏻😊❤️❤️❤️❤️
"Ariana what are you doing here?!" When I saw these dolls in the store I said the same thing.
So Cute

This was 10mins ago?!
They're beautiful, but the quality of their costumes and accessories is complete garbage unfortunately. Not worth it at all!
