A Little Scoop on Justin Bieber!

Hey Gang!


As I was “Comparin’ Aaron”, I thought I should show you my Biebers too! I saw one comparison on Flickr. It was not complete, but I think it is worth looking at. I only have two Biebers. There are about 6 (maybe more) head sculpts out there. Three have molded hair/no smile; two with molded hair (regular and short cut) have an open-mouth smile; two with “real hair”; and one of them has an open-mouth smile. The real hair doll is a better reflection of the short haircut Bieber got. BTW, that cut cost the toy company about 100,000.00! So the toy manufacturer isn’t smiling, even though the doll is now! Anyway, none of mine has the smile! I have #2 and #3.

I was told by Muff (Hey, it is Muff) that there are different bodies, too. Right now, I have two of the bodies. One(#2) I purchase from Muff

and one (#3) with real hair, Leo-Sydney's brother, I purchased from TRU.

The headsculpt has changed a great deal! I'm calling the old headsculpt Hunter.  He looks like a Hunter to me!


So here is what their torso looks like out of the shirts! The one with the hair is the newer body, and it is a little more streamlined at the waist.


Here is a shot of the different necks on the dolls.


The one with the hair has a pivotal neck. The other has a side-to-side turntable head. Unfortunately, the one with the pivotal neck can only look down a little bit, but not up really at all. So to me, that is not a change for the better!

Ryan from my Sydney Tryout post is also on this same older Bieber body.

He is a Hannah Montana Travis doll from the Hannah and Travis gift set.

Here he is with the Biebers.

Here are Aaron and Warren.

Here they all are together.


As I said in the Aaron post, Bieber items are selling well. Some of it is Justin's popularity as a person, and the other is the entire doll world fed up with Mattel's fashions! Muff posted back in 2011 about Justin Bieber’s Carnage. Boxes and bodies tossed for clothing! The Bieber’s fashions are more real! I hope to scoop up some of his outfits for the males around here. Only TRU in my area seems to have the outfit sets! They are the cheapest for the dolls, too!

His new outfits for next year are said to be great too, if the 2012 Toy Show is any gauge! I guess I’ll try to have some money ready for them!  I think I'll just have to sew something for now.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Nice review. I wasn't aware that there were so many different Beiber dolls. I really like his fashions.

You have a teenage dream there

Hello from Spain: in my country all the teenagers are in love with Justin. A month ago he was in Madrid was crazy. Thousands of fans behind Justin. You're right that Justin's clothing is very real and beautiful. Watching your dolls I now want to buy some form of Justin. Keep in touch.

I have a Bieber doll. I don't think it's either one of those. He does have hair though. He is waiting for school to open, along with the other teenagers. He does have very nice clothes. I like your variety of boy teens.

Thanks Georgia Girl, Sergio, Marta, and Vanessa!

Georgia Girl, His fashions don't have that pink/non masculine look of many Barbie fashions and are made well too. They are youthful and there aren't any really dressy things like a shirt and tie. I love the fabic of them.

Sergio, They both are real cuties!

Marta, They had a Justin Beiber cut-out at the mall and all the young girls were standing around it getting their pictures taken and squealing! He is a big hit her too!

Vanessa, Is he smiling and are you going to name him Justin? I have a few teen dolls which is I guess way I started some teen stories.

Thanks for sharing this information about the Justin Bieber dolls. I love his clothes, too. Do you find that his things fit the Mattel High School Musical male dolls or Aaron Carter dolls?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

I finally have some of the JB's with hair. One was in a regular doll pack, no smile and the other was in a concert playset, with smile. That smile is more of a grimace really. They both have the "pivotal" neck. I have not unboxed them though, so I don't know if the neck range is looser. I wonder if the smiling one with hair only comes in the playsets??

Your My Scene Trade is still waiting to have her head shrunk, but I may rethink doing that and leave her as is.

My other Bieber's said to tell yours they are glad he made it out of the spare parts box.
