If you’ve been sleeping on Monster High, it’s time to wake up—especially if Netflix’s Squid Game is your jam. Mattel has teamed up with Netflix to give us a Monster High take on the terrifying giant doll Young-Hee from that deadly game of Red Light, Green Light. That’s right, the giant nightmare fuel that made your childhood game look like an absolute horror show is now immortalized in the Skullector line. Cue the haunting Mu-gung-hwa Kkochi Pi-eot-sum-ni-da chant.
Standing 10.5 inches (27 cm) tall, this creepy-yet-stylish Young-Hee comes with 11 points of articulation, because what’s more fun than posing a doll whose head can rotate 360 degrees? Dressed in her signature yellow and orange dress, she’s got her pigtails, skullette hair accessories, and even a piggy bank purse—modeled after the transparent, oversized piggy bank hanging from the ceiling of the contestant’s dormitory—perfect for stashing the prize money you’ll never win if you don’t survive the game.
But fair warning, even her packaging comes with a bit of a scare: slide open the outer sleeve at your own risk. And unlike Young-Hee in the show, this doll can’t stand on her own, so a stand is included. Just don’t turn your back on her.
Starting October 24, 2024, at 9 PM PT through October 25, 2024, at 8:59 PM, Fang Club members can snag this collectible for a limited time at MattelCreations.com, with general access opening up on October 25. All yours for US$65—if you dare. I think this would be a perfect addition to the horror doll collection like the life-size replica of M3GAN and Chucky.
