Found out on Facebook that every character in ever after high will have an alternate costume (their legacy day outfits)Just like Monster high did with the basic dolls and the dawn of the dance line.Yay!
Just saw on tumblr that there's a rumor that there will indeed be a Legacy Day outfit line...QuoteFound out on Facebook that every character in ever after high will have an alternate costume (their legacy day outfits)Just like Monster high did with the basic dolls and the dawn of the dance line.Yay!sourceShe doesn't source who or what on Facebook this came from, so I don't think we should take this as more than a rumor still, but it gives me hope! I want those outfits!
That seems reasonable- as the packaging and doll design suggests they are going to follow the MH model VERY closely- except with princess/fairy tail stuff instead of monsters. The MH line has done so ridiculously well- I'm sure this Ever After line is designed to get those hold-out moms that think Monster High dolls are "creepy" (yes, I've heard many a mom say it). One has to wonder though how much the "edginess factor" plays in with the demand for the dolls. How many kids hear their moms say "NO WAY" and want the doll just that much more? Just speculation.
I assumed as much They certainly wouldn't go to the trouble of designing those outfits for nothing. i'm more curious as to who all will be a doll on the first run.
I think a big reason we will not see a Maleficent character is that she is owned by Disney. While Mattel does produce Disney dolls EAH is exclusively Mattel and I don't think they would want to pay Disney for use of the character if they didn't have to:P

He was in the story for all of, what, five seconds?That I wonder as well. Maybe - and please don't take this the wrong way, my dear American friends - because this franchise's first target audience is always the US and the US doesn't know many classic fairy tales that have a male lead who isn't a prince. And they wanted a "manry mayon" presence in the franchise so they picked the Huntsman because "harr he's a tough ranger type with a heart of gold!" I was already rolling my eyes at "Snow White and the Huntsman", that movie with Kristen Stewart. I was wondering why the heck the Huntsman would need such a big role - oh, wait. He needed this big role because otherwise the movie would have been about two women only and who the heck wants to see a movie about two women, amirite? There's got to be a het romance and a tough male hero who saves the day and shows the ladies how it's done! Slightly off-topic: I also liked big chunks of that movie. Mostly the fantastic art direction, set/costume design and the soundtrack. If people want to see a well done "dark" version of Snow White, though: watch "Snow White, a tale of terror". It has Sigourney Weaver as the "evil" queen and damn, she plays the role so well.

I can't help feel everyone is reading into this a bit much. It is, after all, a toy line. Nothing more.
I've heard sooo many moms/dads say they're "creepy" or "ugly" too, while the little kid stands there holding a Lala/Frankie/whoever, doing ineffective puppy eyes... and breaking my heart!

I totally missed that Cupid has long hair! I can't wait to see her doll especially if it is different from the MH version.

I'm probably in the minority, but I prefer this look over her MH look!
