r/AllDollPrototypes

I have to say I really like these hair colors on Nefera! They look so familiar to me, like I've seen similar hair on another doll?? Or maybe I'm mistaken lol

I think the final doll we got is awesome, but as usual, this prototype is interesting to me too! I wonder if they would've kept the same makeup colors if they'd gone with this hair? From what I can tell this makeup looks to be exact to the makeup on the final doll.

The differences between the concept art, the prototype, and the final product are...wow! The concept art is so detailed!! The final doll isn't bad at all, I actually own Birthday Ball Duchess and she's a really great doll! But comparing her to the concept art, it's a shame Birthday Ball was mostly a budget line, y'know.

There aren't many differences between the prototype and the final doll that I can see, it's mainly the headband and the shoes that are different and it's mostly due to the prototype having more detailing on the headband and the final doll having more detailing on the shoes.

I think she's kinda cool! I like the color change hair, I just really like color change stuff in general 😁

Blue hair looks good on Meeshell too I think! The dress is okay, but I think it could be better, maybe if it was a different shade of pink or had a few more colors added?

I LOVE HER OMG SHE'S SO PRETTY!!!! That dress is great, this whole outfit is just awesome!! I like the final doll, but I honestly prefer this look.

This is the sort of thing I love to research!! All the details in a prototype that either didn't make it to the final product or were tweaked somewhat (and everything in between). I LOVE the black Hissfits shirt as a sort of t-shirt dress?? That's what it looks like it's supposed to be, especially in the top pic where it's on the doll. Also Sweet Fangs with a mohawk (kinda)?? We were robbed.

Sorry for the Toralei spam, she's just my favorite character, but I swear I'll be posting more about other characters too! 😅

These are the first of any prototypes I ever bought. These are prototype Creeproduction Toralei hands! I've had these for a while now (I don't even live at the place where this picture was taken anymore), but I still wanted to share here because these are just so cool to have!

At this point in time I don't have any complete doll prototypes- complete as in a fully clothed prototype doll with the outfit and accessories and all that- But I do have some more smaller prototype pieces that I'll be sharing here! 😊

Kicking off the community with some Monster High G1 prototypes! These were used to show retailers what they would be selling in their stores. Examples for retailers, basically. I've always thought they were pretty awesome!!

Something interesting I've always thought about Clawdeen specifically is that her ears seem to be attached to a black headband instead of being part of her head mold. Not sure why, but it's certainly interesting!

I'm not entirely sure where these photos originated, but I found them on tumblr here.
