NEWS: Rainbow High

So MGAE made a website for Rainbow High!

https://rainbowhigh.mgae.com/

I'm not going to go over much from the actual Rainbow High dolls. We've seen a lot of that already. Second outfits are visible in the products section, which is cool. The little bios are cute, but I hope they fix poor Skylar's soon. Sunny is gearing up to be my favorite, and I think it's hilarious that Jade's talent is makeup when she barely wears any.

More exciting for me is news that the second series of Fantasy Friends is still happening! I loved what we saw from Toy Fair, so I was worried about their future, but they've been tied into the Rainbow High brand. And these designs are so amazing.

I clipped the checklist so we could go in order by character.

The line is divided up into Regular, Rare and Ultra Rare. The Regular dolls are the only ones that will be in every case of them. There are only two of these. The four Ultra Rares are typically split into two per case. I honestly can't remember how Fantasy Friends were divided, because I didn't blind buy many. I got most of them via Facebook.

First up, the FLORA section. These girls all feature plant names and flowers in their hair.








The doll's fantastic hair makes up for her completely boring outfit.







I love the design of this doll. She's either pink or purple-skinned. I'm not sure which. Love the hair, outfit and overall color scheme, but I HATE the name. Why name her after a sash? 






This one has a similar problem. Great design, but then they've got Lilo's sister's name combined with the most Hawaiian word that ever Hawaiianed. She's a hibiscus. Why not work with that? I appreciate that they're doing some cultural stuff, but there's no need for that level of hey, lookit this diversity!







Dorothy Petal.

Okay, sure, why not?





This pretty girl is one of the ultra rares, which aren't really that rare.

Her name bugs me because it should be Heidi Drangea.

Other than that, I love her.







Definitely my favorite of the Flora section! I love these colors!





This next group is called the Mysticals.


I adore this one. Another ultra rare. She's just gorgeous.






And so is she! Also ultra rare.

I love the pairing of pretty girls with bugs and snakes.






My favorite of the entire line. White hair AND red, black and white color scheme AND relatively short hair AND those details? Beyond favorite. 









The only repeat design. She's basically pink Mia Monarch. But she's still pretty and I still want her.





I would love to be more excited about this guy, but the blond hair annoys me. Why not make it brown or red or even shiny metallic gold? The scarabs would have blended into black, but any other of those colors would have been better than blond.

I may have to get some paints and give him golden hair. Or if I can find a nice metallic lapis lazuli...







At first glance, she seems really simple compared to others, but I love how all her details and colors come together.






And finally, the Down to Earths group.

This is Alexia Cacti. She is completely fabulous.







Basic but also super cute.









This guy is really cute. The boys are way better this series.



And the last ultra rare.

On one hand, I love this.

On the other hand, errrrrrrrr, she was black before. Really gorgeous deep brown skintone. So this is on the problematic side. I still want this doll, but not the best move, MGAE, especially after she was leaked so we all know.

So who's your fave?
