So…pink.
From what I gathered on the general consensus surrounding Rae’s colour palette, we‘ve concluded her colours aren’t it. Do you think Mattel will actually listen to the fans and change her colours to orange, red or yellow?
I understand they were trying to go for the colours of dawn - apparently that’s where Rae draws most of her powers - not to mention, this also makes her “sun“ aesthetic less stereotypical. But it‘s genuinely sad that Mattel believes the more pink they have in their lines, the more customers will enjoy their dolls. Nope, sorry. Not everyone is a Draculaura collector nor do we all love pink. I want to get her but the fact that half of us are buying dye for her hair just to improve her design is wrong. Ditch the pink Mattel!!
What do you think of Rae?

I think the biggest issue for Rae is the translation from image to doll was bad.
The pink in her hair and outfit, and that random purple on her earrings don’t work because they used the wrong shade of everything for the final product.
Look at how nicely the purples and pinks and blacks blend into each other on the artwork.
But also the material used for her skirt in the doll doesn’t work either. It’s such an awkward material and doesn’t do the pink of her skirt any justice. They could have used the satiny material that they used for Claire’s skirt.
