Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

  • The Polly Pocket line of dolls used to have the Sparklin Pets gimmick, but now after their recent retool they have been replaced by My Cutants. Guess.
  • Some of the dolls in the Monster High toyline can be said of this trope because most of the characters are undead: first there is Frankie Stein who could possibly be made from dead teenagers, Ghoulia who is a zombie teenager, Spectra who is a ghost of a teenager, and finally there is Draculaura who was turned into a vampire ages ago.
    • Spectra even mentions dying in the TV special. Yikes.
    • Don't forget that Draculaura is 1600 years old, and has been in High School for all this time, presumably watching many different groups of friends age, move on and die. That and her relationship with Clawd (who ages naturally) could never last, because she is over a thousand years old and he is seventeen.
    • It gets even worse, an upcoming character named C.A. Cupid has wings that look very normal and stylized from the front, until you look at them from the back and they resemble a popped open rib cage complete with a spine.
