Aww that's a big *drops eff bomb* disappointment! >,< Is there a way you can neatly use a seam ripper to separate the seam from the head to the hat?

I cut it with scissors, and it came out just fine, but my only problem is that now I can't get them back on in a nice looking way.

That is a shame, man. I was so hoping for Meygana, but won't be getting her now. And I thought Lagoona's box hairnwas bad. Still thinking about Jade though and the hat being sewn on doesn't bother me so much as I just use dolls for display purposes only.

Okay. I just got Meygana today, and I'm going to be honest... I'm really disappointed.

To put it simply, and I'm not exaggerating... She had the absolute worst box hair I've ever seen. Her hair was so dry, matted and frizzy, it made Lagoona's box hair look downright tame. When I washed and brushed it, there was a lot of "dead" hair that came out in handfuls... It was awful. I ended up having to give her a haircut. I'm sure that the only reason her hair was like this was because it was curly -- I'm sure that the straight-haired dolls fared much better. Still, it was incredibly disappointing.

Some other things to note: The earrings are terrible, and they pop out a lot. The peg keeping them in is entirely too short. The calves and feet are made out of a really weird soft plastic, and the knee joints are made out of the same soft plastic, making them really weak. I'm pretty sure the hat and goggles weren't meant to be taken off, as they were sewn onto her head in addition to the elastic, and I'm having a lot of trouble getting them back on in a nice looking way.

Still, it's not all bad. She has beautiful eyes, and her hair is much better now that I cut it. I do like her... I just don't think I'll be getting any more Bratzillaz after this.

Aww, bummer. I'm sorry that happened. I don't know if I'm going to get a Bratzilla (I've never been a Bratz person but these are less goofy-looking and the glass eyes are cool), but if I was it was going to be Meygana...now I'm seriously rethinking it.

I have a question for the people who have seen these dolls in person or have bought them. The pictures I have seen in this thread have pets shown, do they actually come with the pet or is the pet just a cardboard cut out?

Just a cardboard cutout. I think you have to buy the pet separately. I can't say I'm too disappointed, though, since I've never been a big fan of pets.

yeah the pets will be sold separately in the "near future" ... wish they at least came with like a mini size one or something ...

Get out of my house!!! Just kidding. I must be a product of my Strawberry Shortcake youth; I love dolls that come with pets, especially if they're individualized to the character.

The pets are sold separately; they and the new fashions should be coming out soon. Apparently there's also a playset (a coffee shop), although I'm guessing that will be a holiday release.

I like dolls that come with pets, but some of the MH pets I wasn't too keen on. But I like these Brat pets, they seem very "strange" and sininster.

Haha, I just think it's weird that every single doll has to come with a pet. Even ponies come with pets! I just have so many pets in a plastic bag, I don't even know what to do with them, LOL. They're definitely adorable, though.

I just realized the cardboard image of the doll doesn't reflect the right hair color of the doll. Meygana looks like she's got mousey brown hair in the cardboard, where her hair is fire engine red. Kinda strange.

I noticed that, too. I've heard that it's extremely common of Bratz, and that their doll never looks like their art, LOL. I have to admit, the Bratzillaz art is really weird... When I first saw the art for Jade, I thought she was going to look like Meowlody with short hair because of the way they colored her skin.

I saw these in-store for the first time today. I was really taken with Meygana. If she's still there on Monday, I'll pick her up.... though I'm not holding my breath on that one, seeing how popular they are....

[justkitter]

I saw them for the first time today, too.  I had to look at them all, just to look.  I can't afford to start another collection.  Meygana's eyes are SO pretty!  Ice blue and a hint of sparkle!  Jade was my favorite, though.  Blood red eyes and lips on pure white hair?  Yes, yes, YES!  But I'm not buying.  Nope.  Not me..........

I saw these in my local TRU over a week ago and also fell in love with Meygana. I almost purchased her then but I decided to hold off because  I was still on the fence about starting on another doll line at the moment. I had nothing to do the other night and was back in the area so I made a stop by TRU to see if if they still had her, but of course she was nowhere to be found. They had several of each of the other girls but Meygana had been cherry-picked from the lot. Maybe it was a sign, lol.

Oh well, maybe I'll just wait until I can find them at Target or Walmart, they're bound to be less money than TRU in the long run. I almost grabbed Yasmina, since she's caught my eye as well, but since I really only want one of these if I get them at all, I think I'd rather just wait to get a good chance to compare the two in person.
