Is this sentence correct?
Should there be quotations around "Bedazzler" and "My Little Ponies" sice they are brand product names?
As a child, I had to have the Bedazzler, the My Little Ponies with the diamond eyes and the rock star doll named “Gem”. I had to have everything that sparkled.

You don't need to put quotes around something just because it's a brand name.

This is a bit clearer:
As a child, I had to have the Bedazzler, the pony in the My Little Ponies series with the diamond eyes and the rock star doll named “Gem”. I had to have everything that sparkled.
If you put quotes around one (Gem), you should be consistent and use quotes for all the names.
