What do you think?

Dolls being released :

Cruella de vile
Maleficent
Evil queen
Queen of hearts
Ursula
Mother gothel

Price : 79.99 USD each

There will be 13,000 of each doll

I love them!!!!!

GraceMonica · 06-28-2012, 06:40 PM

im bought 3 of the princesses. im not going near the villains. although they are simply adorable, im not going to drop a couple hundred on the dolls! Maybe ill buy the journals of the villains, but that's it. I can justify that! I have a couple vacations to save up for an no room for those dolls.

Plus, last time I stressed out over the dolls. yes, I was there to get the last five released (not for me, but for two of my sisters) and that was a headache all in itself.

im going to put the money I would have spent towards these dolls into my wdw vacation!

I wonder if Disney is ready this time!

For some reason, I don't think it's going to be as chaotic as last time.

GraceMonica · 06-28-2012, 09:04 PM

OH and the nail polish. I LOVE me some nail polish!!

QVCshopper · 06-28-2012, 10:40 PM

I missed out on all of the princesses. If I get a villain, it would be Mother Gothel because I love Tangled. If they ever make a Prince line, I'm so buying Flynn!

Interesting that the are making more of each doll and raised the price. I tried and tried for Rapunzel and kick myself for not getting Cindy when I saw her in the Disney Store. Oh well.

Girimama33 · 06-29-2012, 03:31 PM

Very cool...I want the nail polish set at the very least.

Starclassic · 06-29-2012, 10:58 PM

I'm hoping to get the Evil Queen to go with my Snow White.

Lol well there's only a whopping 10 ppl here. No worries

Just got back from the Times Square store. I'd say there were about 30 people there and I got the impression that they had enough dolls for everyone. My name was called early so I didn't stick around to see if that was true.

I think between the lack of recent promotion (no tweets, no email over the weekend or this morning, etc.), the edition sizes and the price, these will be much easier to come by than the Princesses. There also doesn't seem to be as much excitement on DIS as there was for Princesses.

Disney perhaps has learned their lesson that when you over-hype a limited product release, bad things will happen.

Oh, they also had a LE 1000 porcelain plate of the Evil Queen available for purchase. I forgot to check the price but I didn't remember seeing that until today. They had all the dolls on display as well. Some of them I really don't like. I think Maleficent, Evil Queen and Cruella are the winners here.

I got my doll! They also had enough for everyone who showed up at my store (Smithhaven Mall).

However, I'm worried that next week won't be so easy. There were a lot of people calling other people to come down and pick up the leftover dolls. I'm hoping they weren't ebayers.

Yeah there were lots of people calling and then interest when we all lined up to purchase but they still had half their stock left as of 3pm this afternoon. Fingers crossed next week is nice and quiet again

That's good news! I really just want it to be fair for all the people who are true collectors and fans and not all the ebay nonsense that happened last time.

The last time around I was able to get the first three dolls with no problems, the first in store and the second two online and then NONE after that and I had to buy the rest off ebay and it was ridiculous. My daughter has OCD and if it wasn't for that (and my own sense of doll collecting, I admit) I would have given up and not tried to get them off of ebay.

This new way at least seems way more fair. I'm hoping everyone who wanted one got one today!

I bought maleficent but my DH is not happy, anyone interested????

PinkGrits · 09-11-2012, 10:03 PM

So do you think it will be safe to wait and order online next week instead of having to go to the store during the middle of the day?
