Hot Skitty-on-Wailord Action: The hybrids make for some interesting pairings: Centaur/Harpy, Mothman/Skeleton, Mermaid/Ghost and Zombie/Unicorn. Shout-Out: Mr. Klopman (and consequently the diamond in his chest) is named for the Klopman Diamond, a recurring item from Garfield and Friends.

After the 2016 reboot, the franchise entered a decline and quietly faded away until February 2021, when it was announced that Mattel would be rebooting the franchise for Generation 3. This reboot consists of a toyline as well as both a new animated series and a live-action TV musical movie, both both of which got a 2022 release on Paramount+. G3 frames Clawdeen as the protagonist and the characters are reimagined more thoroughly than their G2 versions while keeping the tone more aimed at older kids than G2 was. No Flow in CGI: Goes with Uncanny Valley, but special mention goes to Clawdeen's hair, which has a tendency to look like polished mahogany boards. Multiple Head Case: His snakes each have their own personalities, based on the Seven Deadly Sins. They're prone to giving him questionable advice.Cute and Psycho: She'll be a sweet, bubbly girl one minute and threaten to eat other monsters the next.

Toralei did not have much of a part in Escape From Skull Shores, seeing as she only was seen at the carnival, at which she fell in mud. Cute Little Fangs: Quite a few characters, ranging from two downward fangs for vampires, werewolves, and Wydowna, upward tusks for Abbey and Lorna, and teeth pointing both ways, as seen on Venus and Honey. Dance Party Ending: In many webisodes and specials. Most notably in the 2015 CG musical, Boo York, Boo York. A franchise-wide case across the three generations—while the lead trio of characters has stayed the same, each generation of MH places a different one of them as the focal character— G1 focuses on Frankie, G2 centers on Draculaura, and G3 is poised to put Clawdeen at the forefront.

Monster High staff

Clawdeen Wolf • Draculaura • Frankie Stein • Cleo de Nile • Lagoona Blue • Deuce Gorgon • Ghoulia Yelps • Heath Burns • Toralei Stripe Masquerade Ball: The Ghouls Rule! outfits and the "Dance the Fright Away" costumes from Welcome to Monster High. Limited Wardrobe: On the other hand, they always seem to go to school in the same clothes. Even when the second half of Season 2 started up and you'd think that they'd want to advertise the School's Out line. The webisodes occasionally change the outfits, but it's the signature look for each character 90 percent of the time. Parental Neglect: She alternates between ignoring her daughter in favor of work and berating her for wasting her time. Adaptational Personality Change: In previous generations, she was fierce and sassy; here, she's more meek and nerdy, as well as a bit of a Naïve Newcomer to the monster world.
