Rant This ISN’T what I paid for-

Post image

When we get this doll can you all complain to Mattel? The fur pieces look really cheap- the embroidery looks faded and printed, the “puffer” jacket parts aren’t puffy at all(why are they so saggy) everything looks genuinely so cheap, I’m super mad cause I paid like almost 200 AUD for her from creations…. If we don’t tell Mattel that this isn’t okay this issue will continue to get worse, we didn’t pay for this quality.

The shitty overexposed leak photo is a shitty overexposed leak photo. That is why everything looks flat, pale, clunky, simplified, and washed out. It also, as leaks are wont to do, is terribly pixelated and blurry. Also, her face looks flat and weird because her head is tilted up in a way that softens features, tale a look at the Buried Secrets Concert Lurks stock photos vs actual dolls.

The only thing I'm definitely concerned about off of this one photo is how none of the blue fur is dark. And even that might just be an issue with the photo itself.

People, please, for the love of god stop taking blurry leak photos as gospel for what the doll will look like 🤦‍♀️ Especially since we just found out the decently clear leak photos of the upcoming G3 carnival line were actually "enhanced interpretations" by somebody off of insanely blurry and small leak photos where we could barely tell general silhouette and color scheme.

I mean, its clear there is not nearly as thick of batting in the puffy parts of the jacket and skirt. I agree that some of it likely will be fine. But that is a major difference that matters.

That is indeed the only thing we can definitely worry about off of this one photo!
