Hey Punkz!

Since August 2022, the Bratz Pretty ‘N’ Punk reproductions have been confirmed—but, it’s taken nearly a year for them to “officially” release. Originally slated to be split into two waves for January and March releases, the dolls were pushed to the Fall season as many toy companies delayed their Spring releases because sales were struggling. Despite this, the first wave—Yasmin, Cloe, and Jade—found their way to Myer stores in Australia earlier this year causing confusion amongst fans about when these dolls would be available elsewhere. On top of all this, there was an uncertainty about the inclusion of Sasha as she was not featured in the original 2005 collection.

After all the waiting and curiosity, is Pretty ‘N’ Punk worth the hype that’s been built up around it for so long? Following in the footsteps of Rock Angelz and Girls Nite Out, Pretty ‘N’ Punk is the third themed line to receive a reproduction since the Bratz re-entered the doll market in 2021. While the Rock Angelz reproductions were not well-received by fans and the general public, the Girls Nite Out line proved that MGA was capable of producing well-made and authentic Bratz dolls. Can PNP prove to be as strong as GNO, or does it fall back to the Rock Angelz reproduction era?

The Bratz team at MGA Entertainment was kind enough to send me the full Pretty ‘N’ Punk line and I am so excited to finally share my thoughts and opinions about this release!

Hey Angelz!

Aside from the Tweevils launch this past April, we haven’t had any new Bratz releases since last Fall. Most companies, including MGA Entertainment, shifted their Spring lineups to Fall in hopes that sales would do better for the holiday season. With this, all playline Bratz releases were moved—this led to a lot of confusion with fans and collectors excited for more Bratz reproductions like the upcoming Pretty ‘N’ Punk line. Along with PNP, the other reproduction collection on the tip of nearly every Bratz fan’s mouth is the Series 3 collection. While most of the Fall lineup for Bratz was expected to commence by July 23rd, Amazon surprise-dropped the Series 3 dolls on July 11th leaving collectors in a frenzy to purchase the freshly reproduced dolls.

Why is Series 3 being lauded as one of the biggest doll releases this season? Well, if you didn’t already know, MGA has been slowly reproducing and reintroducing beloved characters from the Bratz brand with their “Core Series” line since 2021’s 20 Yearz Special Edition collection consisting of the core four Bratz girls and Cameron in their debut fashion looks. The following year, fans were surprised to see reproductions of five secondary characters (Meygan, Kiana, Kumi, Nevra, and Dylan) from the brand’s prime years with the Series 2 collection. Now, almost nine months later, MGA has officially released their Series 3 lineup—Dana, Felicia, Tiana, Fianna, and Koby!

The Bratz team at MGA Entertainment was kind enough to send me the full Series 3 line plus the Funky Fashion Furniture Retro-Swing Chair reproduction playset, and I am so excited to finally share my thoughts and options about this release!

Hey Angelz!

The latest Bratz release has been nothing short of Bratztoric, giving long-time fans a pair of characters in doll-form almost eighteen years since their debut… the Tweevils! This annoying yet lovable duo debuted in the 2005 film Bratz Rock Angelz, becoming the villainous comic relief characters in the Bratz television series and several films alongside their boss Burdine. What made MGA Entertainment wait nearly two decades to produce Tweevils dolls, and do they live up to the hype? The Bratz team at MGA Entertainment was kind enough to send me a Tweevils set, and I have been so excited to share my thoughts on this release! Keep reading for a detailed review on the Tweevils dolls, including tons of pictures plus details on the dolls’ hair, faces, accessories, and more!

Hey Angelz,

It’s been nearly a year since the Cult Gaia x Bratz clothing collection was released and Jasmin Larian announced that a doll collection would come in later 2022. The dolls were officially released in October to much fanfare, but their hype fizzled quickly in the wake of the Mowalola release. The dolls were supported with a marketing campaign that consisted of a celebrity and influencer-filled 21st birthday party for the brand, which yours truly was invited to! But was this enough to get consumers interested in this designer collaboration? Unfortunately, I fell into the Mowalola trap as well because I received the Cult Gaia and Mowalola dolls at the same time; I planned on releasing the Cult Gaia reviews earlier, but that plan fell short. But, the time has finally come to give y’all a review of the Bratz x Cult Gaia dolls! The Bratz team at MGA Entertainment was kind enough to send both Cult Gaia dolls to me and I have some thoughts to share! Keep reading for a detailed review on the Bratz x Cult Gaia dolls, including tons of pictures plus details on the dolls’ hair, faces, accessories, and more!

While the Cult Gaia dolls came out back in October (review coming soon), the recently released Mowalola dolls have had Bratz fans brimming with excitement as the UK-based designer brings an edgy flair to two fan favorites characters: Jade and Felicia! The Bratz team at MGA Entertainment was kind enough to send both Mowalola dolls to me and I’ve been dying to share my thoughts about this major collab!
