The Ariel that is MIB:  I can't find any information on her (the pic isn't mine).

Anyone know where/when it came from?

Initially I was going with the Little Princess line but thats what the dolls to the right of the MIB are...There is something a little off with her but I think thats probably the picture. Could she be a resort specific release?

Possibly.

I found one the other day at a thrift store and thought that she was from the "Before Once Upon a Time" line produced by Playmates.  Nope!

The only identifying mark is "Disney" embossed at the base of her head.  No manufacture's mark!  So, I was thinking either Disney Store or WDW/WDL release.

There is -no- information that I can find online.  None on eBay (which is rare).

She's...interesting.  Her hair is orange, much like many of the dolls that came out around 2000 (and then they went back to the "firebird red" that's so popular.

Her eyes are almond-shaped, much like the Playmates Tinkerbell.  Her upper lip is very pronounced.

She is very un-Ariel looking.

From what I can see online, she's the only toddler doll released in the "pink dinner gown."  Her clothes fit my Disney Animator Ariel, which is why I bought her...but if she's some sort of rare release, I don't want to strip her!

I was able to find this girl, who looks pretty similar in the face - and her box says she was a Disney Store exclusive - but I'm either terrible at Googling, or there just isn't a lot of information about these dolls. :[

Ah!  Yes, that is the same face mold and also calls her "Little Ariel."

Nice find Aerora - that really does look like the exact same line! She is certainly usual.

I love how little Ariel is a human and not a mermaid.

LoL, seems a bit backwards, doesn't it? 

I suppose it's no more backwards than having a toddler Cinderella doll in a ballgown

Actually toddler Cindy in a ballgown makes sense. It wasn't until her dad remarried and then passed away that she had to wear rags. However Belle and Aurora are a different story.

LoL, what about Tinkerbell?  According to the movies she just "appeared" as a grown woman   How does she get a toddler doll?
