  • I really loved the look of the Robin Sterling doll and when I found the other ones as well I knew I had to grab them all for my collection. Little did I know just how many problems they would have.

    Never thought my random obscure knowledge would come in handy lol! The Tiffany blue color is actually trademarked!! Which as an artist seems ridiculous but sadly its not the first time and won't be the last :( there is an artist though Stewart Semple and he recreates paint in these trademarked colors (vanta black, Tiffany blue) and sells them! Its really interesting just reading his story and history with Anish Kapoor. They probably picked Robin so they could pass it as "Its Robin egg blue not Tiffany blue" to be safe

      It is! Piggybacking from the Anish Kapoor topic the original comment came up with, He's the guy that made the giant chrome bean. He's full of himself, and a dingbat. Vanta Black is actually very dangerous, as it creates heat, and was made by scientists. He bought it bc he liked the color. Semple thought that was the dumbest thing ever, so he created the world's blackest black, and the world's Pinkest pink, specifically stating on the website and product you couldn't be Anish Kapoor, or giving the product to him, since you shouldn't have to pay for the rights to use a color. Anish had an assistant purchase the pink, dipped his middle finger in it, and tweeted the picture to Semple. Semple then made "diamond dust" (tiny pieces of glass, if I remember correctly) with the hopes of Anish daring to try and stick his middle finger in it once more. Semple has now gone on to make more versions of the blackest black, even darker than Vanta. He's a really cool guy. Sorry or the essay, I just love dunking on Anish when able.

    I understand that these are more intended for the older collectors market, but even then i know a lot of folks (myself included) who like to take our dolls out of the box to pose and display them, and that includes changing the fashions around. It doesn't make sense to put so many plastic ties on all of the clothes as if they dont want you to ever take them out or change them around at all ever. What a weird choice.

    A suggestion for the holes in the fabric: Iron it. Be very careful because the fabric might melt, but try adding heat. Heat will shrink the holes. When sewing, running an iron over your seams helps to do that exact thing. You might want to try putting a light towel over the top of the clothing or use a VERY cool setting, but it might be worth the try!

    • @LJG7654
      @LJG7654 2 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      Bow suggestion: Try reversing the way you tie it. You know when you make one loop and then swing the other piece around the middle to bring it through to make the 2nd loop? Go the opposite way. It can be hard to remember to do it since (for me at least,) it's such a big muscle memory thing, but the loops lay flatter and more evenly! I do this with all my ribbons/bows. It's great for dress or shirt bows too!

      A great way for getting rid of these sorts of holes is actually steam, it can be less damaging for the fabric and allow it to fill out the space more naturally. At my workplace we use a steamer to fix (human) garments, but you can also use the steam setting on an iron, or hold the fabric (carefully!) over the steam from a kettle , and then gently smooth out the area. This is particularly good for more delicate or smaller fabrics because you're not having to use big bulky surfaces to heat the fabric. 😊

    I have a love hate relationship with this set. On one hand, they are gorgeous looking dolls with an amazing level of detail. On the other hand they are $50 which almost twice the price of the standard doll. Considering the price, that poor quality control on Robin's paint is inexcusable.
    There is no need for the second outfit on a pajamas doll, which are usually the budget dolls. I do like at least one of the alt outfits, but they are unnecessary. I would rather the dolls be cheaper than have a second clothing set.
    Maybe if this set hadn't come out at the same time as both a new set of six standard dolls and another set of three band dolls and the winter set still being out I wouldn't be so hesitant on this one. But they are putting out too many higher priced dolls all at once.
    I really love these dolls, but I don't have the money to shell out over $150 on just three of them. (Though I did luck out by finding two of the new standard dolls for $15 on clearance at a Walmart. So that was nice).

    Take a metal chopstick, heat with a iron/other methods, and wrap the hair around the chopstick! You can also use a metal straw! Just make sure to gently pull the straw/chopstick down as to not mess up your work!

    Great review as always, Jen! You got really lucky finding all 3 dolls since apparently Marisa has been extremely difficult to find according to the doll community.

    Most of the problem I have with these is the extreme sameface syndrome they have... I got the boy for collection purposes and he's pretty sturdy, at least. There's another girl with a lovely face sculpt, mostly because her eyes look different from the rest. QC with them is better than the OMGs get.
    There's a "my size" version coming to shelves for the Xmas season. The price point of $97(!!!!) makes me weep, but it looks like it has articulated legs, unlike say the comparable Barbie.

  • @ZefDavenport
    @ZefDavenport ปีที่แล้ว +1

    For anyone who reads this, the knees sometimes get stuck if the doll is kept in a warm room, which makes the plastic softer, and once it goes cold again, it can get stuck with the other piece.
    What I do when that happens is, instead of applying force, try to bend it one little notch at a time. Eventually, the knee joint will "give up", so to speak, and will start to work as intended.
    However, unless you live in a really cold place, you need to bend their knees every now and then, or they get stuck again. These dolls are quite high maintenance, not gonna lie.

    $21.54 was the lowest I ever saw on Walmart but never in stock for here in the US. I was able to get Robin & Brianna for $29.06 each Marisa has been the hardest to find online & in store they do sometimes go up to $48.88 too online and in store I believe that’s always the price here. I do wish with winter break, slumber party and rock star that it was just one outfit instead of 2 just anything would be nice to lower the price when giving extras like I’d rather see the 2nd outfits sold as fashion packs 🤞👍👍👍

    Seeing all the defects/flaws in these 3 dolls makes me not want to ever buy them. I can never understand why doll companies allow such poor quality control in their factories. Even if it's in China, the company is paying for products which the consumer is expecting quality for these ridiculously high priced dolls. I get so tired of seeing products sent here with numerous problems and the consumers should start demanding better quality. I can see a rare doll getting sent out but come on it is past unacceptable. They are pretty dolls but not worth the money. All the dolls from many companies are arriving with way to many defects. I am picky about my dolls. I won't keep a flawed doll and I shouldn't have to repair a new doll. Take care.

  • @shaunaisazombie
    @shaunaisazombie 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So the little plastic things that attach the clothes together are done with a fabric tagging gun. It's basically a gun with a hollow needle, and the plastic tag fastener goes down the needle when you press the trigger. Slide the needle out of the fabric and it's left in place. So it's the needle that causes the damage to the fabric because it needs to be much bigger to let the plastic tag through. In fact, when I worked in a clothing store that used them, we always called them dammits because that's what you said whenever you needed one. Like "Dammit, I lost the price tag." We had to be very careful about where in the garment we put the tag or else we'd get customers asking for a discount because the needle gun had caused a hole.

    Very good detailed review (spotting all the imperfections too ! lol).
    I like RH but not as much as everyone else. I did not jump into the bandwagon either. I am glad now because I can pick the one (or eventually ones) I like the most in new lines. I have space issues and I don't want to end up with tons of RH dolls in my collection. They look all too similar despite the colours, new eyes and new face molds.
    I find them a bit lifeless. It is difficult to describe, I would say beautiful but cold (if it makes sense). They are good as display dolls but I find them totally unsuitable for proper play for children. I like to handle my dolls. I never feel like handling them or redressing them.
    Also too many defects with these dolls. I find RH to have more issues than omgs. The main issues I had with omgs are messed eyes paint. I never had any issues with their bodies. I don't like the plastic of RH dolls bodies. It looks kind of cheap. Anyway, I don't buy MGA products full price anymore, nope!
    I had the same issue with one of Krystal knees. I managed to move it a bit but I stopped... thinking... she has a beautiful face, no major issues, good eyes, great hair, no rooting defects, her legs are well attached to her hips... it would be a shame to break the knee... lol 😄😁😆 and she will only be displayed... so stop messing about with that bloody stiff knee! 😆😉
