I mostly remember this line because people were freaking out about Frankie being a N*zi doll for reasons that coild be boiled down to them being a German character wearing an army hat and ppl deciding the fact that the insignia had lightning bolts meant it was a "fascist" and "antisemitic" outfit, and that some promo pics had them holding the hat and they decided they were saluting (when they clearly were NOT saluting).
I definitely do agree that some of the S1 dolls hold up very well - Like Lagoona and Draculaura remain in my top list as well, even tho, I can not really argue why other than they just look really good on my shelf xD I don't have S5 yet, but I guess theming- and designwise S2 was the strongest for me because there wasn't a single meh doll. S3 was overall cheap, sadly cuz the theme could have been cool. I think what surprised me personally the most is that S4 was the one I had very high expectation for from the photos and after opening them ... but they're the ones that fell off for me the fastest, because as beautiful as they might be, I find them a bit "boring" in the fashion and design department - yes, the outfits are cute, but they don't seem to fit the characters much and I just don't find myself looking at em much. Tho clawdeen is the exception, she's absolutely precious.
The only skulltimate secrets doll I have is Ghoulia. I love her. I really wish they’d bring out more Ghoulia dolls and that they’d stop with the pink it’s not her colour. I have a long list of dolls that include a good few of the Skulltimate dolls 😅
Oh my this! Cheaper clothes, poly hair? All that I could forgive but Mattel, having the character with glowing eyes not glow in a *glow in the dark line*? Really?
I got mine on a wimb at Target for like $12. I was just walking through the aisle and was honestly shocked at how much I loved her. Her beret, 2nd shoes, her little shawl she's top tier.
Literally, I saw people reselling Ss2 drac for £50-£80 here in the uk??? Then I managed to get one new from amazon for retail price. But the draculaura tax is real!! 😳 Edit: we do have a typical markup here in the UK though. These ss retail for £35 here which is close to $45?
There were 2 things that surprised me, wave 3 drac not being the lowest and wave 3 twyla being the lowest; but like this is subjective. I do wish that ghoulia wasn't a store exclusive. Mine got lost in the mail and have no idea if i can still get one for an ok price
Unless they’re under like ten dollars poly hair is a total deal breaker for me. I love the concept of the garden party one-I just love a tea party. It reminds me of EAH hat tastic line which was one of my faves with all the little teacups. I don’t see myself ever buying scultimate secrets because of the poly hair and the giant box gimmick I have no room for all those boxes. I appreciate the ideas and concepts but not for me
My favorites are the Skulltimate Secrets Fearidescent dolls. I do like the Neon Frights Twyla very much and the Twyla/Draculaura from the Garden series. Except I think Draculaura's colors are too bright and don't fit her. The ones I don't like are the rest of the Neon dolls, and I hope you understand, but I don't like the Garden Venus at all. I think her core doll is sooo much prettier. But we all have different taste :)

05:20 The fact that the glow in the dark line Twyla doesn't have glow in the dark eyes 😢

Venus is really stunning, I got her and i'm so happy.
Really enjoy your take on monsters high. Fabulous
1st wave SS Draculaura is like $80 from 3rd party sellers now ! That is crazy. With poly hair even ! I don't get it.
she doesn't have poly
@@LagoonaScreams oh, i thought she did...well, that makes more sense, then.
Ss2 draculaura has poly probably you mistaken for it

I swore I would never buy a doll with poly hair again, but after seeing Venus it hurts!
Her poly is not too horrible as far as poly goes. I have definitely felt dryer rougher poly in other MH dolls. Her face is stunning.
By far, my favorite one is Abby! Her face is just so beautiful.
While I don't think that pink looks good on SS1 Cleo, I would like to see an attempt at an all pink ghouls line, I think it'd be interesting.

When I get new Skulltimate secrets doll I always reroot them and I paint some deatils and omg - they are amazing!!!!!!!

Can you do a video show your makeup please💖
I wish I had the user but someone made these custom tea party dresses for venus, twyla, and drac and even made one for lagoona too 🥺
I'm getting the last doll today I needed for Skultimate Secrets Garden today. Venus. I was going to wait for a sale, but I couldn't. 😂
omg your eyes are so beautiful blue color..

SS W1 Draculaura is just that girl for me 😊💅✨️
