Bratz is a franchise that started with the Bratz line of anime-styled fashion dolls created by ex-Mattel employee Carter Bryant and produced by MGA Entertainment.
The line eventually became popular enough to warrant a bunch of spin-off lines, several animated Direct-To-DVD movies, a short-lived cartoon series, and a live-action movie. They tend to focus on the four main girls; Cloe, Sasha, Yasmin, and Jade, and consistently their 'passion for fashion'.
To elaborate, the Bratz Direct-To-DVD line consists of:
- Mainline
- Bratz: Starrin & Stylin
- Bratz Rock Angelz
- Bratz Genie Magic
- Bratz Passion 4 Fashion Diamondz
- Bratz Fashion Pixiez
- Bratz Girlz Really Rock
- Bratz Genie Magic 2
- Bratz Pampered Petz
- Bratzillaz
- Bratz Desert Jewelz
- Interactive
- Livin' It Up!
- Glitz 'N Glamour
- Spin-Off Babies (And Kidz)
- Bratz Kidz: Sleepover Adventure
- Bratz Kidz: Fairy Tales
- Bratz Babyz: The Movie
- Bratz Super Babyz
- Bratz Babyz Save Christmas
- And of course, the infamous live-action movie Bratz
In late 2012, the toyline expanded with Bratzillaz
The line also had a licenced video game line that was surprisingly intriguing (using travel and magazine gameplay as its main focus) and some crappier rushed to coincide with a movie release games. Not to forget the two Bratz Ponyz games (the conception of which is complicated, since it was a spin-off of the spin-off Bratz Babyz line, and no, we have no idea what Babyz are doing with said ponies.)
