Ralph Breaks the Internet “Yesss Fashion Doll” Review

I wasn’t interested in buying Ralph Breaks the Internet merchandise when it was first announced. But then I watched the animated movie and I loved the characters. Taraji P. Henson is amazing as Yesss, and now you can own her as a fashion doll.

Yesss, voiced by Taraji P. Henson, is an algorithm who determines the trending videos on BuzzzTube. She has a very unique look due to her having a skin tone which has shades of blue and purple. I won’t spoil the movie, but I enjoyed the role she played in it.

What got me interested in the Yesss Fashion Doll is the fact it has been made by Bandai. I have seen Bandai do a lot of anime merchandise, so I wanted to see what the company could do with a fashion doll of a Disney character. I have to say the Yesss Fashion Doll, available right now for only $19.95, did not disappoint.

Yesss comes with two outfits, which makes sense because she needs to remain trendy at all times. The gimmick is you can mix-and-match her outfits to create four different looks. Also, I liked how Bandai was able to capture the likeness of her coat from the movie. The accessories include a visor and a bracelet.

One of the ways I judge if a doll is worth the price tag it is asking for is the level of articulation it possesses. Yesss offers a lot of movement for how much she will cost you. Points of articulation include her head, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and the ankles. She can also stand on her own.

As for changing her outfits, her wrists and feet come off to make the process easier. The clothes have velcro in the back. You shouldn’t have any problems with quickly changing her dress. The material of the clothes is okay, too. Take note the red jacket and the shirt underneath is a single piece.

The Yesss Fashion Doll is made of durable plastic. However, I didn’t drop it from a height (as I normally do) because she is quite skinny and I didn’t want to break anything. Having said that, I think she will be able to handle playtime sessions unless a kid is really rough with her.

Have you watched Ralph Breaks the Internet? Are you a fan of Yesss? Let us know.
