Welcome to Bratzline! This week Dom joins us to look at the many MGA doll lines! While the iconic Bratz dolls may be their most well-known brand, MGA has a history of creating various other doll lines! We'll take a trip down memory lane, starting from the humble beginnings of baby dolls in 1997, all the way to the scented dolls of the mid-2000s, and even the modern-day fashion dolls of the 2020's! We'll dive into the trendy fashion, the cool gimmicks, the beautiful screenings, the stunning aesthetics, the fabulous accessories, and so much more!  I hope you guys enjoy!
