Bratz Universes

Bratz has been altered several times throughout their lifespan.

Between 2001-2009, the Bratz Universe was multi-faceted and multi-dimensional, with many writers and producers creating their own individual and independent stories for the Bratz. Throughout these years, the Bratz went through several ***soft reboots***.

The Bratz have also had several ***hard reboots*** between 2010, the 10th Anniversary, and the present. These Universes seem completely altered from the Bratz's debut days, and were clearly outlined by the company as being a "reboot" or approaching a new demographic. There are usually distinct differences between the dolls, media, story-telling, image, demographic, artwork, among other notable changes when the hard reboot occurs.

Below is a summary of the types of Bratz Universes that exist currently. To know how to use this information as a guide, review How To Contribute to Collection and Spin-Offs Pages.

#### Pre-Debut & Doll Universe

Under this section, there will be information from the original conceptual designer, Carter Bryant, and the 2001-2009 dolls, their boxes, the official Bratz websites, and commercials. Some of Carter Bryant's earlier concepts were scrapped before debut, but the information can still add context to the Bratz dolls' backgrounds. Many of the earlier dolls, their boxes, the official Bratz websites, and commercials have had their own information and stories, with them often coming into conflict with the story-telling found in other universes. Yet, the information coming from these sources are directly from MGA Entertainment's earliest creators, developers, and/or producers, unlike the other universes, which often came from third-party developers and producers. Therefore, the information from these sources are valid and will be united under this section.

#### Other Misc. Media Universes

Under this section, there will be information from the Bratz's earliest media (such as the Beach Party! (Book) from between 2001-2003, media from 2001-2007 that often doesn't fit neatly into any other era (such as the Bratz Secret Date Electronic Game), and 2001-2007 media that's difficult to find (such as Coool TV (TV Series) and the official Show Me What You Got (Website). Often this media is produced through a third-party developer that collaborated with MGA Entertainment to produce content for Bratz. However, this media may have been developed and produced for one period of time only, with little to no other connections to other eras in the Bratz timeline.
