Any doll collectors out there? If not now, perhaps you had some in the past. For many of us, dolls were an important part of our childhood – and we’re not just talking about Barbie, but also a variety of action figures and collectible dolls of all kinds.

Our attention was recently caught by a trending X thread started by Dolls2remember, asking people to share the most “offensively ugly” celebrity dolls.

The thread was inspired by a recent YouTube video from the creator, which highlighted dolls that he thinks deserve the top spot in this unusual category. On his channel, he shares unboxings, doll reviews, makeovers, restyles, hauls, and collection tours, covering a wide range of dolls – including Barbie, Bratz, Monster High, Rainbow High, vintage 90s/2000s dolls, celebrity dolls, Disney dolls, and more.

Scroll down to check out the celebrity-inspired dolls from the video, along with photos shared by others participating in the discussion.

    We were curious whether the doll enthusiast customizes them or focuses solely on collecting. Here’s what he told us: "Almost all of my dolls are thrifted, and I love restoring them to their original factory condition whenever possible. I occasionally do customizations as well."

    The content creator also shared the personal significance of his dolls: "My collection means so much to me. It represents creativity as well as history. Many of my dolls are vintage or discontinued and no longer in production, and it brings me great joy to preserve them, as I consider them little time capsules."

    Finally, the collector reflected on a particularly meaningful aspect of the hobby: "Since beginning my collection, what is most special to me is when others reach out and tell me how I have inspired them to begin collecting themselves. Doll collecting is such a small, niche hobby, often stigmatized or made fun of, so I am always grateful whenever I can encourage someone to indulge in what they love. Everyone deserves to have a passion and a hobby."

    Looks like a generic, if slightly deranged, knockoff Barbie from Temu. Which is fitting.
