MGA really need to figure out they pricing model. A dollar general doll has no articulation a limited quality outfit and shoes for 20usd. My fashion style is 17 for a basic doll but with an added purse. Girls night is mfs but with 2 extra accessories for 23. A mainline doll is 28$ for a girl's night doll with added knee and elbow articulation. The color create dolls are limited articulation and a shoddy gimmick for 34$.

So why are we paying five extra dollars but not getting full articulation. The budget dolls are called budget because  MGA puts less money into them. I've seen barbie MTM dolls on sale for 7$ so it's not that expensive to make them. A company is never gonna sell something at a loss and a company as big as MGA never prices something to break even. We could have regular articulation at a 28$ price. Also no dolls have earrings anymore. Everything is made out of plastic because it's dirt cheap to make. So please stop letting companies get away with the charade that adding accessories makes it so much more value when it's not.

If a doll is over 20$ then it needs to have the minimum of elbow and knee articulation. If a doll is over 25 it should have full articulation. There's no excuse for a doll in the 30s and even 40s to have limited articulation. (I'm looking at you, closet amaya)

6 USD extra for two plastic accessories
