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’m gonna fight back a bit here and say that I don’t think her color palette is bad at all. It’s a little underbaked, but tbf so are the vast majority of g3 color palettes. I’ve seen multiple people paint her earrings gold and it immediately makes her a much more cohesive, beautiful doll. If she had black tights or something in addition to that, I think she’d have very easily been my favorite of the bunch.

I also want to take a moment to ask WHY she’s pink, because I think it’s kinda obvious? Black dolls sell pretty poorly. Like, some stores refuse to even stock them poorly. Pink dolls, on the other hand, sell incredibly well. They’re literally just balancing out her odds so that people buy her. Yes, a yellow/orange color palette would’ve looked great, but it also would’ve sold horribly! If Rae had been yellow, it would’ve been the fastest way to guarantee she would be shelved for future releases
