appearances
Kiana made her first appearance in the first edition of the Wild Wild West collection in 2005. She was recycled the following year for the Rodeo/Wild Wild West (Second Edition) collections. It is possible that Kiana was set to appear as part of the Bratz Babyz line as artwork featuring a character close to her in appearance was featured on the Bratz Babyz Wild Wild West fashion pack, but this remains unconfirmed.

TRIVIA
MGA decided to withdraw Kiana from the Bratz lineup after competitor Mattel filed a lawsuit for trademark infringement of its Kianna doll from their Teen Trends line. Despite this lawsuit, Kiana was still used the following year in recycled playsets for the Rodeo/Wild Wild West (Second Edition) collection and was reintroduced in the 2012 video game Bratz Fashion Boutique. The nickname “Outlaw Diva” was given to Kiana in 2020 in a “Blind Date” post on the official Bratz social media platforms.
