New Monster Hight cartoon does not look good.

Confirms the leaked doll photos going around. It's needs to be said, the character designs are terrible. No way to sugar coat it. Looks like Bratz knock offs of MH characters. Makes me miss the previous reboot. It wasn't great but it looked way better than this. At least they still looked like MH. The new designs are just so generic, bland and samey to every other Bratz wannabe line out now.

Story line seems to be following the equally bad looking new live action movie.

Maybe kids unfamiliar with HM will like this reboot. I'm out.

Yes, I'm disappointed, too. Clawdeen looks like a nerd. Toralei is the only one who looks like herself. I wouldn't call them Bratz knockoffs myself. At least Bratz have/had an edginess or sassiness about them. These new re-imagined characters look more cuter and Disney-fied to me. It may appeal to kids, but not adult collectors who found the originals so unique and appealing in the first place. One of the many things I liked about the original ghoul designs were that they had these freakishly oddly long, sleek fashion model-like bodies which worked great for the dolls because it showcased the outfits and shoes, but I guess some parents didn't like that image because they thought they looked anorexic or promoted unhealthy body images. I assume Mattel or Nick wanted to change them to a more realistic body image since the message is all about inclusion and being different and accepting others differences in the first place, not to mention the currently popular Rainbow High and LOL dolls have more curvier bodies. I guess they want to go with the current trend.

What did they do to Lagoona Blue?

So cutesy. I'd be hard-pressed not to pick up Deuce as a stand-alone figure--I like his more abundant locks--but these seem far-removed from what I'd consider MH.

Still no Ghoulia? That is a bit disappointing.

I love how they list all these "voice actors" (and I'm being totally sarcastic) with their pictures as if anyone cares. They will all just sound like themselves.
I'm so sick of generic and stunt voice casting. The new Super Pets has the same problem. Instead of Krypto being an actual character, he just sounds like Dwayne Johnson.

The animation world desperately needs another Mel Blanc to be discovered.
