THESE ARE REAL FYI

YZMA. HADES. I"M

hades is just looking like a total chad

man this makes me want a kuzco limited edition doll just put him in a gold box

.... oooooo

original dolls

holy shit

just saw the individual pics

all of them are so good this year

I was complaining that they didn't do Dr. Facilier but i'm sorta glad they didn't because none of these are "misses' for me

maleficent is probably my least favorite

she is def a little plain but

Believe me

these are such a step up from last year

granted this doesn't have the d23 dolls

one sec

d23 dolls don't count in the same way since those are more expensive and were harder to get

But yeah the shopdisney/disney store dolls were just. a tragedy. Meg and Esme were the best. and cinderellas may not look bad (And objectively is not bad)

but this gal was released the year before and I feel so bad for the artist and designer

I spoke with the designer on instagram briefly and said how much I'd loved if they did ENG stuff and she basically said that she had been fighting to do other properties but the execs are dumbshits

who want them to do the same 6 characters over and over

in the same dresses

So I'm just imagining them sitting there going "we have to do the same fucking dress in the SAME SHAPE AGAIN"

they probably only got away with tianas dress in the d23 version since that one looks super 20's in its styling

if anyone wonders why i can guess so much about canons and whats going on in them from merchandising alone

this is why

I've been following all of this shit closely for 7 years now if you just wanna talk about disney merchandising

if we wanna talk about doll collecting in general its closer to 10

| shopDisney more pix here

ohh look at them

Maleficent is beautiful

she's not as glorious as Yzma but I love her little hair horns

and her dragon

tho why is her face the only one that looks sort of barbie-ized and not like the animation?

its the lack of the headdress

i would bet money its the same mold as this doll head

But they put hair on her lmao

ignore auroras look she is supposed to be possessed lmf

hades and Ursula are def my favs here

the rest art good enough but those two it's like /chefs kiss

evil queens dress has snakes on it and i was like

"Did disney just let a biblical reference slip through there???? liKE... EVE ANd THE SNAKE AND THE APPLE"

then my friend pointed out her mask was the magic mirrors face and I was like... hol up

Sigh. Disney was not brave enough to make biblical references in their merchandising on this day

ok u kno i don't do dolls but o snap

I actually love that Meg and Esmeralda too

maybe just that they gave them dolls

that Tiana is gorgeous
