Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Doll Set - Pre-Order Purchase - #12 of 6000 - First Look - 2013-10-15 - Snow White and the Prince Certificate of Authenticity - #4508 of 6000
Then I started unpacked the other doll boxes, one by one, and looked at their CoA. The next was Jasmine and Aladdin, who were also #012. Then Belle and the Beast, then Ariel and Eric. Finally the last one I uncovered was Snow White. I was very shocked that its number was not #012, but #4508! It was clear that this was a mistake by the Disney Store, and that this Snow White set was never meant to be part of the pre-orders. However, the curious thing is that the price sticker on the Snow White set's cover sleeve showed the pre-order price of $649.75, the same as that of the other doll sets.
I next picked one of the doll boxes, and started to unpack it. It turned out to be the Rapunzel and Flynn set. After I took it out of the carton, I slipped off the cardboard cover sleeve, and turned it around to look at the Certificate of Authenticity (CoA) at the back. It was #012 of 6000! This is by far the lowest LE number that I have ever gotten. Plus 12 is a very cool number on its own, and is also exactly 1/500 of the edition size.
I was very anxious to see what the edition number really was. First step was to open up the shipping carton. Inside was the five doll sets, each in their own carton. The two sets at the ends were also covered in bubble wrap. Included in the side were the five DFDC gift bags, and the packing slip.
The original shipping label, from the manufacturer to the Disney Store warehouse. From previous experience with LE pre-orders, the Carton #00008 meant that I had a VERY low edition (serial) number. There might be an offset from this, so it might not be exactly 8, but it should be very close to that. My heart started pounding at this point.
The shipping carton was very large and heavy. It was 42'' x 18'' x 8'' and weighed 28 pounds. It came from the Disney Store warehouse in Memphis, Tennesse, from where the DS ships almost all their merchandise.
My pre-order for the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection (DFDC) Doll Set just arrived at my home today. It consists of all five doll couples in the collection, in one very large shipping box. I will show the entire set during the process of unpacking them from the shipping cartons, and showing the dolls themselves in their display cases. I will not debox any of these dolls. I have been deboxing ''spares'' of these dolls, as they were released once every two weeks, since August 20, 2013. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get the Ariel and Eric set today at the store raffle, so will order my spare set tonight online. I had pre-ordered this collectioin at the D23 Expo on August 9, 2013.
My first surprise is that I got a very low edition number for the set, only #12 of 6000! The second surprise is that all the dolls but Snow White and the Prince had this low number. The Snow White set unfortunately was #4508 of 6000. I will certainly contact the Disney Store Guest Services to see what can be done about this discrepancy.
