World's richest YouTube account rakes in more than $5million in ad but the star never shows her face

A mystery YouTube star DC Toys Collector never shows her face on camera - but makes her living from unboxing videos and made almost $5m (£3.3) in ad revenue by opening Disney toy packages. Each video is presented by a mystery young woman, but all you ever see of her is her hands and impeccably painted nails.

According to figures published by analytics company OpenSlate, the highest earning YouTube account of 2014 was DC Toys Collector.


The channel features more than 1600 videos, most of which feature toys based on Disney characters - including Frozen lego and Minnie Mouse Kinder Eggs.

The most popular video features a Disney Princess Play Doh dress making kit, which has been viewed more than 184m times.

The channel has an incredible 3.5m subscribers and has racked up almost 4bn views since joining the site in 2011.
The identity of the presenter remains shrouded in mystery, but on her YouTube profile page, she reveals she's an avid toy collector with a "huge collection" who speaks Spanish and Portugese.
