The highly anticipated second season of Squid Game is set to premiere on Netflix on December 26th, 2024, and in anticipation of its return, a Monster High x Netflix's Squid Game Young-Hee doll is releasing.
Inspired by the unsettling doll that led a deadly game of Red Light, Green Light in the first season of the hit show, this Monster High x Netflix's Squid Game collab features an orange schoolgirl dress, a fully rotating head and a miniature piggy bank modeled after the prize money container. The Monster High Skullector Young-hee doll is launching alongside Little People Collector versions depicting Player 456, Player 199, a guard and a miniature version of Young-Hee.
