I think I am going to go for Tink now. I may struggle to get Anna and Elsa when they come out, but I think I can do it.
As mentioned by Hausofde-vil the reason why the Disney stores are being so paranoid is because they were all reprimanded as a result of what that one employee did when he leaked the image of the designer Tinker Bell doll. As a result all CMs are being told not to say anything. To be honest I think it is fair what happened as it is Disney's way of punishing the public in general for being so impatient.
I agree amm3 that it doesnt hurt for them to at least disclose how the dolls are going to be released as some people have to take the time off work etc but I dont think they necessarily need to disclose how many dolls they will be receiving. To be honest I would just go to your local store as early as you can and if you are able to buy the doll then that is great. If not then at least you will have the chance to do so online.
I just think this release is getting out of hand and am worried about the repercussions it will cause for future releases as Disney may start coming down really hard on the CMs which is not really fair for them because really they are getting punished for our impatience. I think we all just need to relax a bit, I honestly dont think Tink will sell out super fast, yes she will sell out probably within several hours but really even if she was to appear on the secondary market I dont think she will be that much more expense than retail anyway. I think the more people panic the more this will just push the price of the doll up as resellers will take advantage of the panic. Also the nosier we get the more frustrated and annoyed the Disney store will get and as a result it will affect any future releases.
Personally I think it will be first come first serve as it is not a normal designer release so just make sure that you are ready and at your store when you are able to get there. Again they are fairies and not princesses so will not be as popular but then again they are designers which generally tend to sell fast and with all the hype from Frozen there is more of a demand for these dolls. Still with that all being said I dont see these selling out as fast as previous releases like the DFDC Ariel and Eric or Belle and Beast.
I actuallz wasnt planning initially to buy a fairy doll, only villains.... but I actually love the tinkerbell design so I ordered her! She looks so pretty.
Anyone know how many were allocated to America etc....and how many to Europe? Just says 4000 worldwide. Think I can only order one though right?
I love the other dolls boots, wish they sold those seperately for my own OOAK dolls haha
I would really love a designer version of snow queen Elsa. I prefer the designer dolls to all the others. Not sure of the chances though, because they already have the other snow queen one...
