Hi Im Jade

mood

Im looking for mutuals? Oomfs? Moots? Whatever the tumblr version is im new lmfao but im looking for friends ig ! Here are my interests

I don’t buy dolls for my inner child tbh I buy them for my grown ass adult self who happens to like dolls. And what are u gonna do about it

It's almost as if Mattel has purposely designed G3 to self destruct.

So, so, sooooo many of the materials are unstable.

Between the polypropylene hair, the pleather, the clear and translucent accessories (and the ticking time bomb that is Frankie's prosthetic ankle (as pointed out to me by @dollsahoy) - designing the cogs like that, at the ankle - a major tension point (my G3 Frankie started developing stress marks almost immediately after getting them) was an incredibly bad idea) the dolls, like many other Mattel products, just are not made to last.

We have seen first hand how detrimental Mattel's decisions were to G1 and it's a shame that ten years on a whole host of other, different material problems are still present in the line and it seems as if Mattel is doubling down on them.

Barbie + hitting a little too close to home
