>>11747432The only right answer. Let's be honest.
It always surprises me at how many Barbie, Monster doll and other dolls you see at Ross, and I see the scalpers streaming and even fighting over shit like Avatar and NECA and never really see anyone doing that with the Barbies.I do see little girls pick stuff up and beg their mom's to buy it for them, but they just as much will pick up Spidey and Friends, Lilo, or even dinos or something else as opposed to dolls.
dos this count?? i just got m first bjd off amazons today fr 84$ shes so akwai

>>11751973Maybe I'm biased here, but I saw a lot more fervor over Barbies than I did anything else, but maybe it's because I only ever hunted Midge. I felt awkward wandering into Ross in the toy aisle, but the doll shelves were pretty empty and picked through. Never found one, and stole this pic from Reddit.
>>11753271Barbie as a brand is down 8% yoy, Midge just sold well because she was novel. In general, Barbie is shelfwarming and not doing so well.Overall, dolls are not doing well at all. The only commercial property that hand any notable growth was AG which I forget what it was, but something like 2-5%
>>11753453Barbie quality is kinda bad, the fashion is so outdated that girls don't see themselves reflected in Barbie.
