Disney dolls discussion!

[Galactica]

I read on the facebook page that Elsa has more snowflakes on her dress and Anna has more crystals-  they must be tiny diamonds for that price!

Argh, there are too many nice Frozen dolls! I already have the classic Disney Store Anna, but I guess I need Elsa to go with her. Then there are the two singing dolls who look pretty nifty even though Elsa's face looks weird. And then there's the set with Anna and Elsa together and packaged with 2 extra outfits. I really love that set, but at $70 it's more than I can justify spending on dolls. The LE ones are out of the question I wonder if the Anna and Elsa dolls from the two-pack will be available individually without the extra accessories. That Elsa looks so much prettier than the snow queen one *w*

Calico, can you post pictures of you Anna? I'm still deciding whether I want the Disney Store Frozen dolls, but I know they look 100 times better than the ones at Wal-Mart I just want to see if they look as nice IRL as they do in the stock photos

Starting on the 7th, Friends and Family starts and you get 25% off. It brings it down to $52. If that's more reasonable for you. I'm so getting it this weekend!

Oooh, thanks for the heads up, BowTie! I may just have to do that! Is that an online thing or is it in-store only?

I'm super bummed because my cat wreaked havoc on my room last night, and one of the casualties was my Anna doll's braid. A little bit of hair had gotten pulled loose from the braid. There was no fixing it without undoing part of the braid, so I got her hair wet, undid the braid up to the loose point, and tried to rebraid it. Disaster Her hair is just too short to work with. The white streak got lost halfway down, the braid gets messy at the bottom because there's not enough hair to work with, and at the very end of the braid, the hair sticks out everywhere instead of laying flat. Does anyone have any tips on fixing it? It makes me so sad to look at, because she was brand new and one of my favorite dolls. I'm at the point where I'd almost rather just buy a new one, but she wasn't inexpensive, and I'd hate to buy the same doll twice when I could spend the money on getting an Elsa instead.

Shenanigans, here's a really quick crappy picture I took of her. It's 10:30 here so there's noplace nice to take pictures and there's no light. I'll try to take a couple nicer pictures tomorrow. She really is adorable.

It is an in store and online promotion. My store gave me a small stack of 'em because they love me and I don't even buy a ton. I just talk to them a lot when I go on my breaks.

Oh man! That is such a shame! I'm so sorry to hear that your cat did that. That's one of the reasons I don't like cats. They just get into everything. I hope you can fix it or maybe use that 25% off to get a new Anna.

you might try putting some product in her hair before braiding?  Like gel?   She is really cute-

That's one of the reasons I don't like cats. They just get into everything.

That is exactly the same thing I say about dogs.  Except I still like dogs.    We've had both cats and dogs and our cats never destroyed anything of mine or got into anything they shouldn't, with the exception of one cat who liked to lick photos (tasted good I guess) and another cat who liked to chew on tulle, so we'd keep those things put away or behind glass.  Our dogs on the other hand I could create an endless list of the things they got into, destroyed, broke, and messed up.  Yet I love them anyway.

Thanks for the pic, Calico! She's so beautiful, I'm gonna have get one It's a shame your cat did that to your doll though, aww I hope you can fix her.

I've never had cats, but I know puppies can be destructive! My black poodle has anxiety issues so whenever we would be gone for a while she would chew up the carpet or the wall.... And my sister's german shepherd chewed up and destroyed EVERYTHING. DVDs, laptops, cords, trash, anything she could get her mouth on. Her favorite thing was shoes though. My sister about lost it when the dog chewed up her wedding shoes and her son's first pair of baby shoes! She doesn't chew any more now that she's an adult which they're very glad of

with the exception of one cat who liked to lick photos

What a strange kitty

I love disney dolls!!!!

I'm sorry about your Anna doll Calico-Star. Does anyone knoe if all the Anna dolls have the white streak? I read a Frozen storybook and it explained the white streak in her hair but I noticed that all of the dolls I've seen even the ones in different clothes have the white streak. So is the white streak in her hair the way her hair is supposed to be all of the time or is it only after what happened in the book?

I figured someone might know what this is worth. It's Giselle's dress.

SwordPony - Giselle is a popular doll so I would think at least $10-$13 for the dress. Maybe even $15 Nude Giselle dolls pop up on ebay sometimes so someone is bound to need the dress

I love disney dolls!!!!

Same here I've gone a bit crazy this month... I think the couples dolls gave me a craving for more Disney I'll have to show you guys my new dolls when a very special doll comes in that I've wanted for a long time

[Bow Tie]

My fiance got me the Frozen set tonight! He didn't get me the singing dolls that come with the extra outfit, but I may wait 'til they go on sale or something. Not sure exactly what I want to do yet. I'm sad I won't be able to play with this set 'til after Christmas.

That set is gorgeous, Bow Tie! I'm going back and forth over that set. It's so expensive, but I adore Anna's dress!
