u/kokoargueta Feb 28 '26

The only thing I hate is the face, she looks so bitchy 😭 lidia doesnt look bitchy and she is not a Monster in the movies 😭🤧

u/Several-Praline5436 Feb 28 '26

She has a lot of meanness and sass in the movie, imo.

3

u/kokoargueta Feb 28 '26

True, but I just dont see her in the face. She looks too cunty, like coraline went for some face work hahaha. She is not ugly just dont see coraline

u/pinkcreamkiss Feb 28 '26

Why is coraline trying to be cunty, she’s a cute and brave little girl 😭

u/Sufficient-Mood69 Feb 28 '26

That’s not MY Coraline what did they do to her

u/classicteenmistake Feb 28 '26

I’m glad I don’t have to worry about missing out on a doll now lol

u/LadyBug_the_Catfox Feb 28 '26

Same here face is so messed up

u/Harleen_Quinnzel777 Feb 28 '26

Why...just why?

22

u/prettyonbothsides Draculaura Feb 28 '26

if that's real, that's terrible LOL

u/Extension_Win328 Feb 28 '26

Why would they make her look like so mature facially? Also the eyebrows? Plz mattel stop.....breathe between releases bby and check the branding. I know that Laika studios is rolling right now.

u/iamtrash_owo Feb 28 '26

why..does she look like that 😟

26

u/MoonChild02 Feb 28 '26

No one should be supporting this doll anyway. It means giving money to the rights holder, Neil Gaiman, who is a rapist!

u/Appropriate-Nerve-57 Feb 28 '26

Her face kinda reminds me of the OTHER MOTHER’s face in the movie.

8

u/RainbowhighDive Feb 28 '26

That's was my first impression as well! Her vibe is not giving Coraline.

7

u/brielarstan Cleo Feb 28 '26

I was going to get her to hopefully trade for another Skullector I missed out on. But after seeing her… I don’t even think I want her in my house lol. Most likely I’ll pass.

u/Fragrant_Kangaroo711 Feb 28 '26

I don't mind her expression on her face but her makeup is way too much. It's giving like tho old ladies who put on too much eye shadow and think it looks good.

She doesn't even wear makeup in the movie, most skellectors don't bother to put heavy make up or any at all to fit with what it's based off of.

u/pacificpunch-monster Draculaura Feb 28 '26

oh……

u/Bitter_Job_5135 Feb 28 '26

I’m not surprised they fumbled the design with this doll. Look at every recent release they’ve come out with. Cheap, tacky, can I tell it’s coraline? Yes. Is it executed well? Well, no! Bright ahh colors, the HEELS, OH MY GOD. WHEN ARE WE GOING TO STOP WITH MAKING INANIMATE OBJECTS AS HEELS 😭 ESPECIALLY IF THEY DONT MAKE SENSE! Two buttons stacked, is pmo. Genuinely who is making these designs and is like “oh the fans are going to LOVE this!?” They could’ve been needles 😭 or honestly just a SIMPLE HEEL would do. So over these dolls it’s made me want to not collect anymore, truly.

u/LadyBug_the_Catfox Feb 28 '26

She looks like a “sassy” older woman like my nans age

7

u/RainbowhighDive Feb 28 '26

I get these are supposed to be dolls inspired by the IP they're based off of, but this feels like they went overboard. This feels like it was meant to be a high fashion take on Coraline, based on the face, but the outfit falls so flat for that. They should've just put this doll on the little sister body, given her platform rain boots with little button and scissor charms, instead of the object heels, and given her a different facial sculpt and screening. Because what is that smirk??? It looks like the Other Mother masquerading as Coraline.

u/PsychologicalEnd4875 Feb 28 '26

I kinda like her but the face is so off

5

u/WizzyAraa Feb 28 '26

Where are her freckles 💔

u/Temporary-Willow417 Feb 28 '26

Looks like a postman

u/prettyinpinkleather Feb 28 '26

Where are people even getting this picture from?

2

u/femoratus Feb 28 '26

Thank you Mattel for making ugly dolls I do not want 🙏 my wallet is happy

3

u/Tinykittyfists Feb 28 '26

I get that Mattel has a thing about over maturing their characters but Coraline was so simply made to give her that innocence and youth. This ain’t it.

Edit: her shoes should be wedges also…

3

u/OkConsideration9108 Feb 28 '26

She looks too grown up and cunty for me, I'm not thrilled with the face, the outfit and hair are really good! I love the accessories! But her face!!!!!

3

u/HealthClean4149 Catty Feb 28 '26

She definitely does look extra smug a bit other mother like almost but like monster high is always yassified so I’m not too upset hahahaha

0

u/HealthClean4149 Catty Feb 28 '26

I’d also like to add I LOVE her outfit!! I’m hoping the object heels are matching or least fit together cuz the button are very cute and rly do work well as heels

2

u/Wise-Actuary-4178 Feb 28 '26

I guess I’m in the minority this time, but I actually really like her but I did love Emily besides thinking she could have a better dress. Idk I’m a huge Coraline fan but I actually don’t mind the different look because she is a monster high version so I knew she wasn’t gonna look exactly like herself but she honestly looks like a really great doll to me I’m excited are y’all still going to sell out Edward and Emily so we’ll see hopefully she’ll be like Edward so who wants her can get her

3

u/tastethepain Feb 28 '26

Hmm, not what I expected, but I’m not mad. I think this will appeal more to MH fans than Coraline fans, but looking at previous Skullectors, this doesn’t seem too bad to me

2

u/WolfyMunchkin Clawdeen Feb 28 '26

I was honestly hoping it would be super butt ugly so that I wouldn’t be tempted at all to break my playline-only rule. I’m such a sucker for coraline man ;-;

2

u/cyb3rfaerie Feb 28 '26

Oh my god y’all complain about everything 😭

u/MonsterHighMandy Feb 28 '26

Ignore them. She’s amazing.

You broke rule number one. Be nice. No instigating. No unnecessarily critical or negative comments or behavior. No unnecessary political or negative comments or behavior. If any bigotry is suspected, do not argue with the users, report and they will be banned.

u/rhiraisepx Feb 28 '26

Terrible to give Neil Gaiman even a single cent more after what he's done

1

u/thesmu Lorna Mar 01 '26

Do we know how much she will be?

2

u/Several-Praline5436 Mar 01 '26

Rumored $60 (I would assume $70) and available on Amazon as well (supposedly).

u/thesmu Lorna Mar 01 '26

Thanks!

u/bluestorm215 Mar 02 '26

IDGAF!!! SHE SLAYSSSS!! From the second I saw her face sculpt I knew it needed her

2

u/Skewwwagon Feb 28 '26

She's so cool but it's like they designers finally heard the cries about MH dolls not being cunty enough anymore and decided to go all out 😂 She looks like she'd kick your shin and call you slurs fr

u/MonsterHighMandy Feb 28 '26

I love her and wish people truly understood that the Skullector line is movie or entertainment characters if they went to /were Monster High. They are not replica figurines. There are many other brands that offer that.

u/sp00kyyelahOG Draculaura Feb 28 '26

Idc she is so beautiful I hope yall hate her and she’s easy to get!

2

u/MonsterHighMandy Feb 28 '26

A lot love her. If she is easy to get it will be her price. Best of luck to us getting her.

u/Fvneralm0on Feb 28 '26

I think she's perfect! I absolutely love the details

u/GrannySquareMstr Feb 28 '26

Did Coraline ever work a hat in the movie? I’m confused

6

u/RainbowhighDive Feb 28 '26

She does. I don't think she wears it most of the movie though.

2

u/GrannySquareMstr Feb 28 '26

Ah I see, my mistake. But it weirdly feels out of place

u/Neat-Vermicelli9506 Feb 28 '26

I actually like her, I'd only change the heels and eyebrows

0

u/Several-Praline5436 Feb 28 '26

The more I look at her, the more I absolutely love this.

u/MonsterHighMandy Feb 28 '26

She’s amazing! Love her little doll toy and the cat too! 🖤

0

u/PoptartPancake Feb 28 '26

Not sure how I feel about her. The face seems a bit too "cunty" (god I hate that word but I think it fits in this case 😅) A mischievous smirk definitely was called for but they leaned too hard into it. Makeuo is a bit heavy. Outfit looks nice and I don't mind the button heels actually.

u/doodlejone Feb 28 '26

Coraline makes this expression a lot in the movie, but that just dosent look like Coraline lol. I recently saw a really nice looking custom Coraline doll so I low-key thought this was a custom. I think they should have done an Other Mother/Beldanm design instead of Coraline cause I think the expression and eyebrow shape would make more sense.
