spacebabie: River Tam and James Norrington...used when I write crossovers. (Default)
As a child I was not big on dolls. The few exceptions were Strawberry Shortcake and She-ra...wait that one was more of an action figure, but the Mattel type of dolls were a meh from me.

Ponies on the other hand were my thing. Loved those ponies back in the day.

My have times have changed.

The new pony cartoon is meh, Kaitlin loves it and I watch it with her. They toys have shrunk and I have never really been into pony toys since Early 90's.

The Pony Fandom? Holy bag of do not want Batman. You have the Extreme Bronies who dub it a manly show meant just for guys and they think the toon is just for them and then you have the Extreme Pegasisters who are "My goodness how dare guys like this. Ewww No boys allowed." There are some Bronies who are cool and tolerant and the same with Pegasisters and Pegasisters who are wary of Bronies because of the extremes...and then there is [livejournal.com profile] curseangel Who is a card carrying SJW or SJ Sallie and Do not Engage.

And then I found a doll series with web cartoons that also teach love and tolerance. That it's cool to have your own style, to be a little freaky, to be anything and still accepted and have friends. I'm talking about Monster High.

Mattel how did you do it? I love the toons with Lagoona's Aussie accent, Clawdeen's Jersey accent, Abbey's Russian accent and mannerisims. I love the characters...especially Spectra and Draculara...so cute.

And the dolls are amazing. They have the details so amazing and all the moveable joints. Frankie and her stitches, neck bolts and two colored eyes, Abbey with her body sparkles and tusks, Cleo's bandages, Spectras transparent hands, Lagoona's fins and webbed hands. I can just go on and I love the fact that the child of Medusa is a guy.

The fandom seems nice. The only snag is the mass buyers who buy out some of the dolls and then sell them on ebay for like 80 dollars a buck. Jerks it's not just collectors who like them. The target audience is girls six and over who would like a doll of their favorite character.

Oh well. I hope someday I can land my hands on dolls of Spectra, Rochelle, and Robecca.
