The new L.O.L. Surprise! O.M.G. fashion dolls, like their predecessors, feature unboxing surprises leading up to the doll’s reveal. Each features 20 surprises to unbox and supply a full-fashion look. The packaging also doubles as a reusable closet and dressing room playset—perhaps also highlighting the company’s more recently touted commitments to more sustainable packaging efforts.

Slide the package apart to reveal the doll’s silhouette, biography and the first set of surprises. The curated fashions are also wrapped in reusable packaging that are creatively designed as garment bags, hat boxes, shoe boxes, and more. The outfits include details such as real studs and layered fabrics. After further unboxing, fans will reveal the ‘dressing room’ where the doll is housed in her undergarments waiting to be dressed in her first fashion-forward look.

The four new characters inspired by L.O.L. Surprise! fan-favorites complete the families of dolls, pets, and lils.

The first series includes Swag, the big sister of M.C. Swag; Royal Bee, the big sister of Queen Bee; Lady Diva, the big sister to Diva; and Neon-Licious, the big sister to Neon Q.T.

The dolls feature silky hair for hours of styling, brushing, and—yes—even washing. They also have articulation in the neck, shoulders, wrists, elbows, and more.

“L.O.L. Surprise! O.M.G. dolls represent what has been lacking in the market today – real fashion dolls that are on-trend and relatable to kids,” said Isaac Larian, CEO and founder of MGA Entertainment. “MGAE continually delivers innovative and creative consumer products that leave the L.O.L. Surprise! fan base wanting more—as indicated by the 3.6-plus million fans who have tuned into CookieSwirlC unbox video. I’ve never seen anything like it. There’s no other doll in the market that compares to the L.O.L. Surprise! O.M.G. dolls.”

The new dolls let fans experience a new signature unboxing experience, with packaging that transforms into a reusable dressing room playset. Sliding the package apart will reveal the doll’s silhouette, biography and the first set of surprises. The curated fashions are wrapped in new, reusable packaging, creatively designed as garment bags, hat boxes, shoe boxes and more. The outfits include details like real studs and layered fabrics. After further unboxing, fans will reveal the ‘dressing room’ where the doll is waiting to be dressed.

The Series 1 L.O.L. Surprise! O.M.G. Fashion Dolls are each sold separately, available now at retailers nationwide.

 

Basic Fun! Introduces ZooBalloos Collectibles Line

That’s why we’re so excited about ZooBalloos! ZooBalloos are a new line of squishy collectibles from Basic Fun that are inspired by balloon animals. These super cute everlasting balloon animals bring an innovative (and totally fun) twist on the surprise reveal experience.

So what are ZooBalloos? According to Basic Fun, “There’s a magical world that exists in the sky, full of long-lost balloons that traveled too high. Where buildings inflate, like a bouncy house and everyone breathes helium and squeaks like a mouse. It’s where the ZooBalloos all live and play, squeaking, squishing and floating away.” How cute is that backstory?

Beginning your ZooBalloos collection starts out pretty similar to CakePop Cuties and other surprise collectibles. Pull back the plastic wrap, pop open the plastic balloon capsule, and discover a surprise bag and a collectors guide waiting for you inside. The fun doesn’t stop here, though. With ZooBalloos, the party is just about to begin! Inside your balloon capsule, you’ll also find a sticker sheet, a balloon stand, and a Bopaballoo. 

There are 28 squishable balloon animals to discover, ranging from Common to Ultra Rare. There are a variety of species too – snails, frogs, monkeys, mice, pigs, and even an octopus! The commons are vibrant neon colors, the rare set is shiny metallic, and the ultra-rares come in shimmery glitter styles. One thing we really love about ZooBalloos is that there are a few colors of each species to collect, which makes getting a duplicate creature a lot more fun. Even if you already have the pink frog, you might get the green one next time!

Let me know if you have these in your home.

The weather is slowly changing which means it is time to think about Spring Cleaning. There’s nothing more impressive than a home that shines, especially when it is a place that you spend a lot of time in. Your home is a reflection of who you are and all you have accomplished.

Spring cleaning can seem overwhelming since it involves getting our entire homes in tip-top shape. However, as long as you already have a cleaning routine that works well for you, it won’t take as much time as you might think.

Spring cleaning is about getting those hard-to-clean or hard-to-reach areas that we simply need to do less often. So, if you have been mostly keeping up with your regular house cleaning, spring cleaning is just going to take it to the next level.

Fortunately, Mr. Clean has come up with two new products that will help make your Spring Cleaning a little bit easier.

Here are some of my personal Spring Cleaning Tips:

Decide when you will clean

First, decide when you will spring clean your house. Do you have an entire day or weekend you can set aside for this? Or do you need to split up the cleaning tasks across multiple days? Figure out what your schedule will allow and what works best for you.

Buy supplies

You are more likely to start (and keep going) if you have all the supplies you need and ready to go. Look at your spring cleaning checklist to see what needs to get cleaned, and make a list of what you need to buy

Make it more enjoyable

Cleaning isn’t much fun for most of us, so do what you can to make it more enjoyable!

Open the windows, put on some tunes, and light a candle or diffuse essential oils. You could even dance as you clean or watch a favorite show.

Clean in a pattern

When it comes to cleaning, top to bottom is always best. That way you aren’t getting clean things dirty again as you go along.

Another tip to helping you clean efficiently and not lose track of what you’ve already done is to clean in a pattern such as clockwise around the room or simply left to right. Knowing where you’re going to go before you stop will keep you from wasting time by going over the same areas.
Declutter as you clean

As you clean each area on the spring cleaning checklist, you should be taking items out or at least moving them around. That’s why this is the perfect time to reassess what you still need and use! Simply don’t put items back that aren’t serving an important purpose in your life right now.

When you’ve finished cleaning, simply declutter the items that didn’t deserve a place there. Or, if you find items that belong somewhere else, put them away right away.

You can spring clean your home a little each day or all at once, but having a plan makes a world of difference.

Happy Cleaning
