welp. it’s the end. there’s a slight glimpse of hope, but i think mermaid high is officially cancelled… designer Stephen Sumner shared the concept designs on insta (in reference to the fact that higher ups had denied and requested a big change to what we know now as the final releases) and boy, oh boy, have we missed out
searras concept art seems fairly close to the style we already know for her. the frilly pink skirt and knee high socks combo is something we have in her official release, except the fishnets are a different style. okay but… LOOK AT THE DETAIL of the tail on the left! one of my biggest wishes for searra was for her to have real detailed pearls for her look. i wish that was executed in the final release… ugh…
oceanna stayed fairly similar for the most part. to be honest, though, i much prefer this shade of blue for her design. there’s nothing wrong with the brighter blue they ended up going with! but this specific shade is gorgeous.
now mari has such huge changes between her concept work and the final production. i am glad to see the tentacle theme for mari has been consistent throughout the process! the white hair is really cute, and i quite love the outfit of the left. to be honest, i’m glad she has bangs since the prototype doll. i am upset but i also love the final mari so i don’t have a preference
finly is so cute! it’s interesting to see her blonde without the original face mold they had. i’m kinda glad they were able to do different face molds, though. it allowed the characters looks to be more personal and unique. the hair colours of the prototype remind me of candylicious’s hair from the lol omg line. okok do like the pastel tail, but i quite love the sketch tail on the bottom image more.
Aggressively wonders how finly be doin’
He feels like going to the beach tbh <3
Soooooo I just got Mermaid High Finly and Searra for $0.02 EACH?!?!?
IM HYPERVENTILATING!!!!!!!
Now I only need core Oceanna and I’ll have a complete collection!!!!!!
Also I will be repainting searra’s face since it’s a lil uggo :/

Yes hello, I am now obsessed with Mermaid High.
Tubbo used to take michael to las nevadas for playdates with yogurt, but due to recent events he’s been lonely :(
Drew some of my boys on a Aggie!! <3
