This may be a niche topic but I love bootleg dolls so I wanted to start the year off w a video I really wanted to make! Hope you guys enjoyed and feel free to send me any fakes you find to my insta (link in description)
Yay I’ve been waiting for one of these vids
Idk how you didn't mention this but. The reason there are so many Wydowna fakes is because she's an incredibly unique doll whose basic look was a comic con exclusive. She's rare, has only one other doll, and expensive, so many people would buy into a bootleg out of desperation.
And also cuz of her many articulated arms
@@lalaloopsyyay7828 honestly i have a hard time possing her because of her arms
You should absolutely make this into a series, where you look at other fakes not just Monster High, so like Lol fakes and Rainbow High fakes and Bratz fakes.
It's funny. I clearly remember the brand "Monster Girl" with a 5 pack of very obvious bootleg dolls being sold at Target back when Monster High dominated the toy aisles (it may even have been around the time of Catty Noir's release). I found it interesting, odd, and honestly laughable that they were being sold there.
WHAT 😭 how would they allow them to be sold there???
@@sweetmewkle honestly, I have no idea. I've never worked in retail
As someone from Latin America, ( Brazil) the original Monster High dolls were very expensive for normal people collect, only rich kids collect the real ones. I only had 2 original MH dolls, and the rest of my collection was fake dolls, EAH fake but articulated dolls too. Even them being fake I love my collection, most of them were ugly fake dolls that I costumized to look like the original dolls.
Retrospectives are literally so fun and informational.
I would love to see more fake doll videos! They're so fun to watch and think "how is this legal?"
I actually bought these bodies off Ebay (for a presumably inflated price in retrospect) as I have a bunch of official heads with no bodies. If you use these bodies, BE SURE THEY'RE FOR PROJECTS 90% COVERED BY CLOTHES. They are serviceable as articulated skeletons for the most part, but are not great on their own. Depending on the color the arms and legs will either be fairly normal or SUPER rubbery (the mint green is the worst for this). I would suggest using them for projects with long flowing dresses, long pants, long sleeves, etc. Also, the feet may not fit certain official shoes properly.
The only monster high “copy” that I like is Bratzillas
Same they’re one of my favorite doll lines
That Draculaura with the braids is so cursed.
I think people make lot of Wydowna spider dolls as a knock-off so they can trick people into buying the doll because she only had 2 releases (i believe) making her a rarer doll
i watched one of your other mh bootleg doll videos right before going to sleep at the end of summer break when i was very anxious but i was so anxious that i couldn't go to sleep until 4am (i went at 12am) and those 4 hours when i couldn't go to sleep i was just thinking about fake mh dolls and when i went to sleep i had dreams about fake mh dolls and up until school started thinking about fake mh dolls made my stomach hurt
I'm sorry for the pain they caused you
LMAO. You must have been traumatised 😂 I had a dream I bought a bunch of fakes and turned them into custom characters. It was actually quite a pleasant dream.
omg please make more doll deep dives i love this so much
NGL I bought that 5 doll set of fakies on Amazon like, a year ago and they were maybe $25 at the time. I knew they were fake, but I bought them for customizing. I don't know how people find used Monster High dolls at thrift stores, because I never can. 🤷🏻♀️ Oh, have you seen the fake Avia dolls on eBay that have her head with a regular purple human body? 😆
Were they good enough for customs or would you say it was a waste of money? I’ve always thought about buying the fakes to practice doll customizing but I’ve just never got round to it.
@𝓥𝓪𝓵𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓲𝓷𝓸 as somebody else who bought them, i'd advise being careful when posing because the joints feel a little weak. Other than that, they're decent quality. They come with clothes you can reuse, and their hair isn't glued in making it easy for removal.
Eeek! I bought Bratz and lalaloopsy girls from Ebay. Gulp. Oh well. I just like to make them over and display them. I wont be selling them. I am fascinated by this. I live in a city where there are a lot of imports from China. Fakes are fun to buy for artist makeovers which I have done on and off most of my adult life. I am 58 btw.
I once had a fake Monster High Clawdeen bootleg she had a Bratz body and had a stolen Coffin Bean Clawdeen head
Just before the close ups of the fake boys, I was hit with two unstoppable ads, I said to myself "better be worth it", and it was in fact worth it
MORE BOOTLEGS!!!!!! I've been needing some Doll Content, please!
Really interesting video :) I've seen some doll that were obviously fake, but some of them you really do need to look more closely at them and if they have packaging; what it also looks like. I'm glad you put this up for people who aren't really familiar with all the details of these dolls. Even I have wondered at times; such as with Wydowna. Just last week I was thinking about possibly getting one of her and noticed a lot of them on ebay; but I hesitated and really didn't know about all her bootlegs. I also wasn't familiar with the differences between her bootlegs and the real girl. I hope you do more of these videos. Take care Sweetie :)
I absou love this video, def subscribing! I really love dolls especially the fake ones and it’s such a niche topic that I can’t ever find someone to talk about it to irl except for some people lol 💗
Enchantimals have queen dolls that are a teen type doll :)
I bought the articulated amazon fakes for a SIGNIFICANTLY lower price, and they're fairly decent dolls. And as somebody who will never get a chance to get the original wydowna, she's a good replacement.
I’ve want to make a moomin ever high custom doll to match the officials Skullectors pennywise
Oh dear lord… the boy dolls at the start 💀
maybe because wydowna is kinda rare so they make bootlegs of it and honestly i do have wydowna and its pretty hard passing her because of her arms
I was into fnaf a lot back when it was like- extremely popular
I was too much into it like in 2015- 2017 I'm pretty sure, but of course I still got dolls then LOL (and now, always will collect them)
But like through those years almost everytime I asked for like actual fnaf merch (mostly for Christmas), most of the time I atleast got like one or two fake merch 💀
I mean sometimes I didnt know the difference myself but I knew some of them were fake so I just pretended I really liked them and they weren't fake at all 😌
Anyway I mostly wanted to complete the action figure collections of fnaf anyway back then so like I can just get them on my own now if I really wanted to-
I just realized I always write in paragraphs so like my comments dont seem too long I gotta stop 😶
Anyway I kinda wanna get a fake mh and practice customizing on them, that would be nice 😄
Been wanting to get a knock-off Wydona for a six-armed OC but not sure how to decide which listing to get lol, I just want some reasonable possibility for her.
Shein sells them for 5 euros.
I kinda want to buy a knockoff Frankie for customization purposes.
They are such poor quality unfortunately. Only copy I liked and glad I got was the once upon a zombie. I have the mermaids they are poor quality compared to the original siren but I did use them for customs they break really easily I had one come broken.
I have two Wydownas, they have the blue lipstick of I heart Fashion so I think mine are safely the real ones lol
But I do agree some of the fakes are pretty decent looking
Just bought the Amazon "Draculara" for the body and the clothes. The head will probably be a paint/rooting tester.
I love when you talk about fake dolls
when i was in the Philippines there was a crap ton of those and i bought 2 bootleg monster high doll and i still have those
Question. Did monster High ever come unarticulated and with attached gold boots? I bought her from a thrift store.
Some G2 budget dolls have merged fashion
Yeah it’s probably a g2 doll you found, if she only moves at the upper thigh and shoulder you found a g2 doll
what character is it that you found?
@@missroyaltea4012 I researched last night and it seems to be the budget line Clawdeen from 2016 Skullette. She has a green painted on swimsuit and gold painted on boots. I washed and styled her hair and put her in a white longer dress with wonder woman printed all over it for now. I am so tempted to paint her boots black and give her a goth make over.
I have some MH bootlegs, they're really fun! Also have some EAH ones.
I'd be really interested to know the quality of these heads (like the ghostly clawdeen) like are they vinyl? Rubber?
It’s funny that the fake encantamals never of their heads is aveas head
6:50 hi this doll i can comfirm that the head and body has the same color also the face is accurate and not like that because i own one❤
Is it poss8ble to include a photo in the comments .I am pretty sure I bought a real Wyonona Syder at a garage sale .Shebis in rough shape - missing her bottom arms but I think she is real
Since it's the first day of 2023, I'm gonna tell you this:
I am legitimately not a huge fan of the fake Monster High dolls. Why? Because they look ugly. Very ugly.
Oh, and I am starting to collect the G3 Monster High dolls.
I don’t think anyone is a fan of fakes? Theyre just fun to talk about bc of how bad they look
@@Courtly_Jester Well, I would say that fake Monster High dolls are nothing but...FAKE.
Does anyone know what’s going on?When I click on a listing on mercari it says error 404 .LITTERALY EVERY LISTING!!!!!!
I had that issue before to I don't know what's wrong with it but u hope they fix it soon
There's a need for bootleg MH stands and how come no one's replicated the stands yet?
What about bootleg around rainbow high
I made a video on those a year or so ago
How many loans did you or your mom take out to afford your doll collection?
We’re thrifters and have been collecting for nearly 10 years so it’s not that serious
the video didn't really go over the extent of fakes that I thought it would :( seemed like you went through the same thing over an over haha I just found a really nice Clawdeen that's my fav now
Well I was planning to make a sequel to this and haven’t gotten around to it yet
There’s also fake MH dolls on wish
🤗🧡🧡🔥🎈😍🎇🎉
I had a couple "Gothic girls" fakes and I honestly miss them. A draculaita and Frankie. The ones on the Bratz bodies that had barbie feet. I still have a dress or two from one of the fashion packs but they're barbie sized. Lol
