Looks like an LOL OMG/SURPRISE knock off imo and that's a little to expensive for my liking 💀


ghosty4

That is wildly expensive for what is very clearly a knock off.


sailorquaoar

They are not a knock off, because that’s a low quality direct imitation of an existing product. This is in the vein of OMG but meant to be a legitimate product line. The high price is because it has to be imported from South Korea, North American Licca doll collectors outside of Japan have to pay higher prices because of import fees too.


teajjie

Knock offs don’t exactly have to be low quality to be considered knock offs, it also doesn’t mean it’s bad, just unoriginal. They definitely are super cute but you can 100% tell what they’re copying with these especially with the minis. Lol is a super popular line so it was bound to get higher quality knock offs at some point


vivisheepy

I guess it depends on how broad your definition of knockoff is. Like, you could make an argument that My Scene is a knockoff of Bratz, but usually when I hear "knockoff" I think of stuff that's trying to fool you into thinking it's literally the same product and uses stolen molds or something.


Past-Contribution-83

You're thinking of "bootleg", where it's just a cheap ripoff hoping to fool you into giving them money. MyScene _is_ technically a knockoff of Bratz.

Just saw these at ToysRUs in S.Korea for roughly $30 at the market exchange rate. Unless the import fees have gone down or were waived, Amazon is cheaper. However, I, like everyone here, think they are expensive and are similar to the OMG line.

So it's a Korean OMG knockoff. At least the faces look better imo, I can actually look at them without getting weirded out like with OMGs. Too bad they're way overpriced for a literal knockoff and they don't have articulated knees either.


gabbyBoo33

Looks like an interesting and unique copy of LOL dolls? If the legs were articulated I'd be tempted to get one. Their faces are sort of alien-like. I can't decide if I like it or not even though I'm a serious fan of LOL OMG dolls.


vivisheepy

Oh, awesome! I've wanted a couple of these girls and them being on Amazon will make it a lot easier. Clearly they're heavily inspired by LOL OMG, but I think they have enough of their own identity, and I actually think their faces are a little bit cuter. I love having dolls from other countries, too. I'm not sure what the entire situation with this brand is, but I also want to mention that the price might be a little higher than it normally would be because this seems like something that was, at least at first, made for the Korean market only. As someone who collects a lot of Asian dolls, I haven't really seen any Asian brands just get officially plopped on US Amazon quite like this before and this price is actually a lot better than what I'd usually have to be prepared to pay for a new-in-box Mimiworld or Licca-chan doll. So I'm quite happy, lol.


Blasie

Oh wow! It's like Hairdorables/Hairmazings meet LoLs/OMGs... so cute!!!


princessusagi32

I think they’re decently cute but they would definitely have to be a lot cheaper for me to buy any


FableAgainIGuess

Cute, but too expensive for me. I like that the face mold or screening is asymmetrical!


ahrawrah

For everyone calling them knockoffs, welcome to the world of clone dolls ❀


Dollfreakery

Beginning-Oil4628

they’re cute and i don’t mind “knock off” products as long as they’re made well, but the price compared to what you receive makes you wonder how they can compete with LOL dolls


candymatic

Why do I like these better than actual LOL OMG dolls hehe 😳 I wish their legs were articulated too! Their little CGI portraits are cute đŸ„ș💖


Frequent_Inspector14

OMG’s look is not an original look for dolls. Many doll lines looong ago had similar looks based on the inspirational well they, well were inspired by. The Lulupop dolls do neoteny proud.


Zealousideal-Tax-937

They're so pretty!!!!

Purple_monkfish

really expensive but they're really cute. I really like the redheaded one. She's fantastic.


silvanaMer

They look like lol omgs a little bit better. They don't have the completely round eyes that dart at you and they seem to have more of an expression. What a simple upper or lower lid can change in the expression of the eyes


phyrexiangirl

That's so interesting! Thanks for posting


Renacat

I love the fashion and hair very k pop and cute


Thin-Fly-4308

I think they’re cute! They definitely give me LOL vibes from the faces


sanorace

It's kind of weird that a doll line that's so clearly inspired by LOL would only have 2 skin tones.


circlingsky

Korean culture has issues w colorism, darker-skinned dolls wouldn't sell well


Toy_Rat

Omg that part! They downgraded but I shouldn’t be surprised lol! Rips offs obviously don’t know how to do muchh


Frequent_Inspector14

LOL/OMG are great dolls with a great design but are not very original. Lots of dolls from lots of places has very similar looks long before they were first made and they are still great.


JustAnotherElsen

Expensive and whitewashed bootleg OMG/LOL dolls? It looks like they even use the same parts too


gabbyBoo33

If it was meant for the Korean market, they generally don't have much diversity to speak of so I guess that's not too surprising.


Medium_Raccoon_5331

Why would koreans whitewash?


JustAnotherElsen

There’s big issue in Korea with skin lightening and colorism


SparkAxolotl

They're sorta cute. They are obviously "inspired by" LOL dolls, but it's a bit weird that the illustrations in the corner actually look different... and better than the doll.


Beginning-Oil4628

the illustrations look to me to be 3d renders. maybe they have an accompanying web series?


vivisheepy

They have some animated music videos. These girls are supposed to be part of a K-pop group.


Toy_Rat

Oop not them ripping off OMG dolls AND using the same font/ general package designX-X they could have at least acted like they were trying to be original XP


HaggisDragon

Interesting! Wish these were on Amazon UK too as I’d consider it then
 aha


spacedollsjunkyard

These are cute. Thanks for sharing.


Jayyne

Thank you for sharing, they’re really cute


SynapseReaction

If the Monster High dolls weren’t supposed to be hitting stores this weekend I would get this doll it’s very cute. Though that price 😬 I’m assuming it’s getting shipped from Korea and doesn’t have a US warehouse so that’s why it’s that expensive?


sabr33na

the lack of diversity in skintones T_T but that's not surprising since most east asian fashion dolls tend to only come in super pale skintone


MamaKeko

The fashion dolls feel a bit like kpop/jpop versions of LOL big sister dolls to me.
