I have too much respect for the art of Bratz collecting to pretend like these dolls aren't meant to be played with. They were (and are) mass-produced so keeping them in their box only supports scalper culture and hurts you.
THAT BEING SAID, when I get a new Bratz doll (esp one with lots of fun lil accessories), I keep her in the box for a rainy day. It's hard to be sad while unboxing a new lil fashion doll. I'm a 30-year-old woman, and I'll open my toys whenever I goddamn please.
loved these lil fuckers man. i was big into legos as a kid but my favorite part was always just the figures. and obviously blind packs for children’s toys is a shady business practice but uhhhhh it worked. i loved giving them backstories and displaying them. one year for my birthday my parents just got me a box of them, it was all i wanted.
A woman once said “I don‘t give a fuck about The Red Shoes” and to be honest with you, I disagree! It has romance, adventure, technicolor, fairytale energy, and a dream ballet sequence. Will watch any time any day 🩰
