The Monster High doll line recently introduced Corazon Marikit, a doll inspired by the Filipino mythical creature. She is dressed in elegant Filipiniana with intricate patterns and a fringed skirt.
A standout detail is the bat-like wings attached to her back, a signature trait of the manananggal. Complementing her look are Filipino-inspired accessories, including a hand fan and a woven bag, which enhance the doll’s cultural depth and charm.

What makes this doll truly unique is its ability to separate into two parts, accurately depicting the manananggal!
Designed with innovative two-part packaging, it offers multiple display options that collectors will love. You can slide the upper body up and down or swing and rotate the lower body—creating the illusion that the manananggal doll is taking flight!

The Corazon Marikit manananggal doll is priced at $75 (approximately P4,300). You can buy it on Mattel’s website.
In October 2024, Mattel released a new Filipina Barbie created by Filipino-American Carlyle Nuera for its Styled by Design series.
