Cinderella 2015 Merchandise

I really want the dolls (especially the wedding set), but 61 USD for shipping to Japan is not really a price I feel like paying (especially considering all the money we have spent lately on moving and having two babies).
:sad:

After waiting up all night for the online release, I ended up not buying anything. LOL.

I did go to the DS this morning, and they had everything out (so much for them telling me just a couple of days ago that nothing would be out until late February -- I knew they were fibbing! :p). Got the couple set and the fairy godmother. I wasn't planning on getting the fairy godmother at all, but she looked soooo much better in person than in the initial promo pics, and I couldn't resist. I'm thinking I actually like her more than the couple now. I never purchase classic or live action dolls but I am very happy with these!

Which city/state?

I went to the only Disney Store in CT and they said they did not have the dolls and would not be getting them at all. She told me that only certain stores would be getting them. ( the store only had the journal, the phone case and the blue gown ornament) I'm really perturbed because I am super picky about my dolls and at these prices I think it is my consumer right to be choosy. Does anyone know which stores will be getting them? What about the Times Square store...surely they'll get them, right?

If anyone can restate or tell me which cities:states have the doll, I would really appreciate it! I am up for a little bit of a road trip if I can be picky once I get there!

Also I checked Toys R Us and they didn't have anything yet. Thy had some Maleficent Aurora dolls still though.

Yes, economy over here is horrible especially with the exchange rate

I went to the Times Square store. They had several of each doll this morning. I spent a long time trying to pick out the best ones, so I know exactly what you mean! That's why I decided not to order them online in the end -- I get too worried I'll be unhappy with what they'll send me.

Disney really needs to improve their product quality control, especially for what they charge for these items. Several of the Cinderella and Prince sets had issues -- one had a run in the veil, a lot of hair problems with Cinderellas, and some really bad paint jobs on the prince -- one had his ear entirely painted in brown like his hair. It would be a lot easier if I wasn't so picky, but I can't help it. Those kinds of flaws drive me crazy, so I'm glad I got to pick out which ones I wanted. I wanted to see the other items in person as well.

However, they didn't have the Cinderella vinylmations in the store, so it looks like I'm going to have to order online after all.

I went to Target today and found Ella!!! Here's some pics I took of her and her very detailed shoes.

Jealous! She's so pretty- I want her now! Those shoes look amazing though. I actually can't believe how detailed this doll is for the price, considering how much the Designer series are for a product that's probably equal in quality.

I absolutely love her! These pictures don't do her justice! (Especially since they were taken on an iPhone which has an ugly wide angle lens) he is very detailed and gorgeous!

Is that the Mattel doll as well or Disney store doll?

She is Mattel

Wonderful pictures! She is so stunning! I also love the body switch you did for her. Did you use the Disney Store doll's body?

Thank you hehe, no I used a Divergent Tris Barbie doll body. I just removed her tattoo.

When I get mine, I'm gonna be torn between keeping her in the box or taking her out and putting her in a doll stand

Open her, enjoy her!

Thank you! I'm so glad to know I'm not the only picky person! I can't help it either-I love looking at my dolls and seeing little flaws would drive me nuts! I totally know all about hair issues. I ordered a classic Elsa online back in 2013 and I took her straight to the store for an exchange. The cast member even remarked "she looks like she got caught in a snow storm!" I'm already planning my trip to Times Square for when the blizzard ends. :) I'll just pray they still have a nice selection of dolls when I get there.

The CT store actually did have the vinylmations. LOL, we should have coordinated! Just kidding! I don't understand why the stores can't have the same merchandise?!
 
I thought the doll was Disney store and dress Mattel because the one review of the Mattel doll didn't have her bed at the elbows
 
Ended up ordering three of the vinylmations off the website. I plan on taking a trip to my Disney Store either later this week or sometime next week to get the Lady Tremaine doll. Now I am just waiting for the Hot Topic merch to go online. I REALLY want that pocket watch!

Lol, that's funny. Yeah, you'd think the stores would all get the same merchandise! The store here usually does have a good selection of vinylmation, so I was surprised. I'm thinking they either haven't gotten them yet or just didn't put them out.

I was going to wait until after the storm for the dolls, but I was too impatient. I made sure to get to the store early today before the weather got bad. Everyone else was out running around for emergency supplies, and I was making a mad dash to the DS for dolls! LOL You can see what my priorities are! :lol:

If you are able to go right after this blizzard mess is over, you should be fine. I don't think many people will be out shopping! I would just call them beforehand to be sure before you make the trip. Just know they aren't very good at answering the phone. I usually have to call around 5 or 6 times before someone will pick up.

Stay warm!!! :)
