Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Heroes and Villains Complete Set with D23 Elsa and Hans and Anna and Kristoff.
Your true friends are here till the end, even when you don't make good decisions or listen to their advice.
I think Ariel looks great in her actual bra. She has such a beautiful face!
So this is my favorite Designer set so far. Ariel is such a beauty and Ursula is just amazing. My favorite thing about this is that the shape of Ariel's fins are accurate and really, that's all I can ask for! I think this is the best tail for an Ariel (or mermaid in general) doll ever and I am so happy I could be alive to see this. It's been 84 years!
I've always wanted to do this beautiful scene, so I'm happy to use the new Barbie body for this pose. Snow White's off to pick flowers before death. I was inspired by Monet's paintings for the flowers. Love the way they look!
The artworks are just beautiful and I love the texture! ✨ Which design is your fave? 😍 #Disney #DisneyFairytaleDesignerCollection #Lithograph #Artwork
I am so happy to add this set to this set to my collection of DS Ariels. I adore Ariel in mermaid form, so this set is extra special for me. I think we should have an LE Ariel in her pink dress next!

Designer Rapunzel Hair Compared.

Each successive Designer Rapunzel has had longer hair than the previous version.
Spiced up my Elsa's pose to show off her ice heels and some fierceness! ✨😍❄️👠 Queen Angie approves! Haha 😁 What do you think? 💙 #Disney #DisneyFairytaleDesignerCollection #Frozen #Elsa #AngelinaJolie ❄️
I've just added the newly released 2016 DFDC Cinderella and Lady Tremaine Doll Set to my home computer desk. They have been completely deboxed, and reposed in their display stand (with the backing and covers removed). I've removed several dolls and figurines to make room for them. I've also rearranged the remaining dolls a bit to make things less crowded. Here are the items shown in this photo. All by the Disney Store, unless otherwise noted.

I am really loving these two together. It's quite late in the evening here so they have a bright artificial light on them.
Also I was trying to work out why I was so thrown off by Beast - where are his blue eyes?!
I'll repaint them soon and see if it helps!
Here are all of the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Heroes and Villains doll sets together. They have been completely deboxed, and placed back in their original display stand, without their covers and cardboard backing. In most cases their poses are considerably different from their factory poses. In addition, I have left Captain Hook's hat off (since it is very heavy and unbalanced, so it just falls off his head if I try to put it on him). Tinker Bell is hanging from the top of the empty case behind Captain Hook, but he completely hides her from view. Ursula is holding a trident taken from a King Triton doll. Finally Ariel is wearing a custom made seashell bra, as I could not stand her original top.
They are placed in order of their release (bottom to top and left to right) except for the D23 Coronation Elsa and Hans set, which I placed above the Snow Queen Elsa and Hans set. They were all purchased first hand by me from the Disney Store. I also have duplicates of these dolls (except for D23 Elsa and Hans), that had I pre-ordered. They are all LE 6000, except for the LE 1023 D23 Elsa and Hans set. The bottom row was released in 2015, and the top row in 2016 (except that D23 Elsa and Hans was released in the 2015 D23 Expo).
Overall, I like the dolls in the top row a lot more than the ones in the bottom row (except for Snow White and the Hag). Although Rapunzel and Mother Gothel have sort of grown on me since I deboxed them a few days ago.
The four doll sets in their display cases, with slipcovers off. They are in order of their release dates.
Photos of my preordered Designer Fairytale doll sets, that I received today. They came in a large square box weighing 20 pounds, with the individual doll sets in their own boxes. The four gift bags were in the same shipping box, tightly squeezed in the side. The carton number is 408, but the actual edition number for all four sets is 410 of 6000. All the dolls are in excellent condition, but there are small imperfections in a couple of the nameplates. These dolls I will leave untouched in mint condition, as I will debox the ones I've gotten from the store raffles.
Includes all limited edition 12 inch dolls in Designer cases, including Disney Princess, Villain, Fairytale, Fairy, Minnie and Hero and Villain dolls from 2011 to 2016. All photos taken by me of dolls in my collection, except for the D23 Silver Cinderella doll and the Minnie dolls.

Here are all seventeen of the Limited Edition 17 inch (Heirloom) and 12 inch (Designer) dolls produced by Disney Store and Disney Parks for the characters of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, from 2009 to 2017. All the dolls have been completely deboxed. The 17 inch dolls are standing side by side, supported by their included display stands. The Designer dolls have been reposed in their original display stands, without their covers and cardboard backing.
An amazing seven of these dolls (all 17 inch) were released just this year, two at the D23 Expo on July 15, and five online and in stores on August 1-2. The 12 inch Designer dolls are placed at a lower level than the 17 inch dolls. We can see that many of the aspects of the 17 inch dolls (after the original Snow White) were borrowed from Designer dolls.
From left to right, the top row of 17 inch dolls:
Shanghai Disney Resort Grand Opening Snow White LE Doll (2016, #381 of 1200).
Disney Store 'Rags' Snow White LE Doll (2017, #2561 of 6500).
Disney Store Prince LE Doll (2017, #1380 of 3000).
Disney Store Evil Queen LE Doll (2017, #1532 of 4000).
Disney Store Snow White LE Doll (2009, #250 of 5000).
D23 Expo Snow White LE Doll (2017, #106 of 1023).
D23 Expo Hag (Witch) LE Doll (2017, #204 of 723).
Disney Store 'Platinum' Snow White and Prince LE Doll Set (2017, #480 of 650).
From left to right, the bottom row of 12 inch Designer dolls:
Designer Villain Evil Queen Doll (2012, #1697 of 13,000).
Designer Princess Snow White Doll (2011, #3997 of 6,000).
DFDC Snow White and the Prince Doll Set (2013, #558 of 6000).
DFDC Snow White and the Hag Doll Set (2015, #2595 of 6000).

Day 3 of the D23 Expo 2015 on Sunday Aug 16, 2015
Goals: Get Extras of LE Items
I got to the Convention Center at about 5 am. Today, the lineup for early birds was outside of the main entrance to the Convention Center. The line stretched from the start of Hall B to near the end of Hall A. That is the opposite side of the main Convention Center building from Hall E, where we lined up on Friday. I got to the end of the line at about 5:15. We were led inside to the lobby of Hall A, at about 6 am. We entered the main Exhibit Hall at about 9 am. We were escorted in a single line to the end of the Disney Store line (after which Guests that didn't want to go to the Disney Store were free to go their destination). I got to the end of the line at about 9:15, which was in the main waiting area. I got into the store at around 10:20, about an hour and half earlier than on Saturday. That's because there were much less people attending the Expo on Sunday than Saturday. Before I entered the store, I was told that the D23 LE Designer Elsa and Hans doll set, the D23 LE Red Jasmine doll, and the D23 Designer Minnie doll were already sold out. The first two sold out yesterday, but I'm not sure when Minnie sold out.
At Disney Store I got some items for some fellow collectors. Outside of the store I grabbed a few of the DFDC flyers. Inside I got one each of the D23 LE 700 Olaf Figurine, the DFDC LE 2000 Lithograph Set, and the LE 1000 Art of Jasmine Lithograph set. Then I got a few things for myself that I didn't buy yesterday. Namely the Peter Pan and Captain Hook mug and journal, and the Art of Jasmine journal. I also took some photos of displays that I didn't take before. Namely the Ariel/Ursula display, and the Snow White/Witch purse/bag. Also I took a photo of the main DFDC promo display. It changed from yesterday, in that the promo for the D23 Elsa and Hans doll set (which was sold out) was replaced by an Ariel and Ursula women's tee shirt. I left the store at about 10:45 am.
Since I bought relatively few items, and it was so early, I decided to visit a few other merchandise locations for items I might be interested in. I first went to the Dream Store. I had heard that there was no waiting to get into the Dream Store, in stark contrast to the Disney store. Sure enough, they let me enter the store without waiting. The store was much larger than the Disney Store, but was also very crowded with customers. There were also several artists there to sign their merchandise. I got a couple of Deluxe Prints of Snow White and Ariel, by Golden Books. I also got a postcard of the new Snow White print by Jasmine Becket-Griffith.
Next I went to the Disney Music Emporium, and got a Little Mermaid Picture Disc. I hadn't seen it in Disneyland for a long time, so decided to get it here when I saw it. Finally I went to the Enesco/Walt Disney Archives booth. Inside the very cramped booth were persons playing Snow Queen Elsa and Hans, with very impressive costumes. There was also a signing taking place by a Disney artist. I saw a couple of simulated storybooks of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and of Sleeping Beauty. They contained notecards depicting scenes and artwork from the original movies. They were very nice looking so I got one of each, for $25. I also grabbed a price listing of the items showcased in the booth. The Anna Maquette will be $199, and the Elsa Maquette will be $350, both coming out in December 2015.
I finally left the Expo at about 11:30, and went home. All in all a very good Expo for me. It was tiring to have to wake up at 4 am each morning and wait in line for hours to get to the Disney Store. But I was rewarded by getting the D23 Exclusive Coronation Elsa and Hans Designer Doll Set, and the D23 Exclusive Red Jasmine 17'' Doll. Pre-ordering the full DFDC doll collection, and previewing all the dolls in that collection, satisfied two of the primary reasons that I came here. I missed getting some of the most limited and highly sought after items, such as the Designer Pin Set, and the Once Upon a Time doll set. But I'm okay with that, as I didn't think I had a real shot at them anyway, especially since I decided not to camp out overnight for the Friday and Saturday sessions.

Day 1 of the D23 Expo, Friday August 14, 2015.
Goals: Disney Store LE Coronation Elsa and Hans Doll Set, pre-order DFDC doll collection.
I got to the Anaheim Convention Center parking lot at about 4:50 am. I got to the lineup for the D23 Expo in Hall E, which is below ground, at about 5:15 am. There was already thousands of people in front of me, just in the D23 Silver/Gold Member line for D23 shopping. My line started moving at around 7:30 am, and we got into the main Exhibit Halls at about 9 am. I then waited in the very long line for the Disney Store. I finally got in the Disney Store at about 2 pm. As I waited in line, the CM with a microphone kept on updating us on the availability of LE items in the store. As I approach the head of the line, the D23 exclusive Elsa and Hans set was still available. But they said that there were no more pre-orders for the DFDC doll set, so I was really disappointed. I was happy to learn when I got into the store that in fact they did have fifty of the DFDC doll set available for pre-order. So that I didn't miss out on the pre-order, I rushed my shopping and taking of photos of the displays. I got the Elsa and Hans set, the DFDC and Story Films lithographs, and most of the DFDC mugs and journals. I lugged the items to checkout, and pre-ordered the DFDC doll set. My gold D23 card enabled me to get a 10% discount on the non-LE items. I didn't buy her, but I verified that the Princess Leia doll was 12'' and LE 450. I was happy with what I got, even though I missed out on a lot of the more limited LE items. There are still chances on Saturday and Sunday to possibly get them. Art of Jasmine is tomorrow, and they said all of those items will only be sold on Saturday.

Disney Princess Designer Collection Dolls (2011) on bottom row and Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Dolls (2013-2014) on the top row. They have been completely deboxed, and placed back on their original display stands. The covers and cardboard backing have been removed, so we get a clear view of the doll from all sides, and their outfits can be expanded. I have the D23 Snow White and the Prince set (on the upper right), but not the D23 Cinderella.
I am really loving these two together. It's quite late in the evening here so they have a bright artificial light on them.
Also I was trying to work out why I was so thrown off by Beast - where are his blue eyes?!
I'll repaint them soon and see if it helps!
I've added the deboxed 2015 Snow White and Hag DFDC Doll Set to my Desktop Disney Doll Display. Also making an appearance is my 2013 DFDC Ariel dressed in the Mattel Royal Ball Cinderella ballgown. To make room, the small Ariel and Rapunzel figurines were moved from my desk, as well as the Pullip Dal Tinker Bell.

Here are my favorite 11-12 inch dolls that were released in 2015. I was going to do a top 10 dolls of any size, but I had too many I really liked so I instead am doing 12 inch and 17 inch dolls separately. In fact, I chose 11 dolls to show in this group photo. The LE dolls are on the upper row, and the OE dolls in the lower row. Otherwise, they are not in any particular order. My bias towards Snow White is obvious, but I really do love all these dolls. All these dolls are by the Disney Store, except for the 12'' DL60 Fashion Doll, by Disney Parks.
Top row
- DFDC Snow White and Hag
- D23 DFDC Coronation Elsa and Hans
- D23 OUAT Snow White and Evil Queen
Bottom row
- DFC Cinderella Doll Set - Drizella and Anastasia
- DL60 Fashion 12'' Doll
- Frozen Fever Elsa and Anna 12'' Dolls
I will have a corresponding photo of my favorite 17'' dolls of 2015 coming up shortly.
Thrilled to get my second Heroes Vs Villains set to go with Rapunzel & Mother Gothel. I love Lucifer, lol.
People will know how much I love the Rapunzel DS sculpt it bordered on an obsession 2011-2012. This has to be the last one for my collection
I love her golden green eyes!
A romantic at heart, Rapunzel is artistic, creative and full of curiosity. Spending her days painting and singing, her energy is as limitless as her hair is long. However, when the handsome thief Flynn Rider picks hers mysterious and secluded tower as his hideout, the two begin a journey together that will untangled many secrets along the way.
Signature long hair romantically styled with braiding and flowers. Printed satin corset bodice with puffed velvet sleeves. Warm illuminating lantern. (does it glow in the dark?!)
Layered gown with ornate golden detailing. Rich velvet overlay with gemstones and gold printed inset.
Suede-like vest that's belted with a satchel to hold the Princess' crown. Boots to finish his rugged look.
From DS Europe.
Here is an illustrated chart of all the Disney Store Designer Collection doll releases so far, from 2011 to 2017. I also include the Minnie Signature series, as they are in very similar packaging as the Disney Designer releases. All the images are by me of dolls in my collection, except for the Minnie dolls and the D23 Incredibles doll set, none of which I possess (by choice). This past year was very unusual, as there were an equal number D23 exclusive sets as the regularly released sets. In addition the latter were poor sellers, that had to be discounted before selling out in stores, and three of the five are still available online as of 12/31/2017.

My collection of the complete set of the Disney Store's Limited Edition Designer Dolls, from 2011 through 2013. They are stacked up in three rows of up to eight doll cases. I am only missing the D23 Exclusive Silver Cinderella Princess Designer Doll. I have arranged the dolls so that similar dolls from the different series are in the same column.
The top row is the most recent Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Doll Sets (2013), with the D23 Gold Snow White and the Prince the first in the row (#114 of 600). The rest of the Fairytale dolls are from the pre-order, and are all numbered 12 of 6000, except for Snow White, who is #4508 of 6000. The pre-order dolls I have not deboxed, although I have opened the cover of the Ariel and Eric set and adjusted Ariel a bit.
On the middle row is eight of the ten Disney Princess Designer Collection Dolls (2011). They have all been completely deboxed, then placed back in their display cases, with the cardboard backing and all plastic packaging removed. Pocahontas and Mulan of the collection are on the bottom row. They were bought separately, and have varying edition numbers.
Finally, the first six dolls of the bottom row are the Disney Villains Designer Collection Dolls (2012). They are all from the pre-order match set, with the same edition number of 278 of 13,000. They have not been deboxed; the cases have not even been opened.
Inside the Disney Store. Rapunzel and Mother Gothel in a diorama of the Tower. This and the other dioramas were auctioned off the Sorcerer ticket holders.

I got to the Anaheim Convention Center parking lot at about 4:50 am. I got to the lineup for the D23 Expo in Hall E, which is below ground, at about 5:15 am. There was already thousands of people in front of me, just in the D23 Silver/Gold Member line for D23 shopping. My line started moving at around 7:30 am, and we got into the main Exhibit Halls at about 9 am. I then waited in the very long line for the Disney Store.

I am really loving these two together. It's quite late in the evening here so they have a bright artificial light on them.
Also I was trying to work out why I was so thrown off by Beast - where are his blue eyes?!
I'll repaint them soon and see if it helps!
My collection of the complete set of the Disney Store's Limited Edition Designer Dolls, from 2011 through February 2014. They are stacked up in three rows with eight doll cases in each row. I am only missing the D23 Exclusive Silver Cinderella Princess Designer Doll. I have arranged the dolls so that similar dolls from the different series are in the same column. They have all been completely deboxed, then placed back in their display cases, with the cardboard backing and all plastic packaging removed. In most cases, their poses are considerably different from their original factory poses. I have tried to make their poses more natural looking.
Just added to the top row are the Disney Fairies Designer Collection Dolls (2014), which so far consists of only Tinker Bell and Zarina (from the upcoming movie The Pirate Fairy).
The rest of the top row consists of the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Doll Sets (2013). The D23 Gold Snow White and the Prince is the last in the row (#114 of 600). The rest of the Fairytale dolls were purchased when they were released separately, two weeks apart, and have various edition numbers.
In the middle row are eight of the ten Disney Princess Designer Collection Dolls (2011). Pocahontas and Mulan of the collection are on the bottom row. They were bought separately, and have varying edition numbers. The first five dolls released in this series (Cinderella, Ariel, Belle, Mulan and Snow White) where bought directly from the Disney Store. The other five dolls were purchased from resellers, after they were sold out.
Finally, the first six dolls of the bottom row are the Disney Villains Designer Collection Dolls (2012). They were purchased directly from the Disney Store when they were released separately, a week apart, and have various edition numbers.
Here are some group photos of the dolls from the Disney Designer Doll Collections. Here is the compete collection of the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Doll Sets. Included is the exclusive D23 Snow White and the Prince set. They are all fully deboxed and put back into their original display stands. The covers and cardboard backing have been taken off, so the dolls are fully visible from all angles.
Designer Princess Snow White (11 1/2'' H, LE 5000, 2011), Designer Fairytale Snow White (11'' H, LE 6000, 2013) and Pullip Snow White (12 1/2'' H, 2012) are posed stand side by side. They are all supported by Kaiser stands. Full front view.
The four doll sets, with slipcovers off and placed on top of the display cases. They are in order of their release dates.
Photos of my preordered Designer Fairytale doll sets, that I received today. They came in a large square box weighing 20 pounds, with the individual doll sets in their own boxes. The four gift bags were in the same shipping box, tightly squeezed in the side. The carton number is 408, but the actual edition number for all four sets is 410 of 6000. All the dolls are in excellent condition, but there are small imperfections in a couple of the nameplates. These dolls I will leave untouched in mint condition, as I will debox the ones I've gotten from the store raffles.
My collection of the complete set of the Disney Store's Limited Edition Designer Dolls, from 2011 through 2013. They are stacked up in three rows of up to eight doll cases. I am only missing the D23 Exclusive Silver Cinderella Princess Designer Doll. I have arranged the dolls so that similar dolls from the different series are in the same column. They have all been completely deboxed, then placed back in their display cases, with the cardboard backing and all plastic packaging removed. In most cases, their poses are considerably different from their original factory poses. I have tried to make their poses more natural looking.

My Snow White and the Hag Doll Set, set up on a table outside of the Disney Store. Doll set uncovered. Left Front View.
Here are my photos of the release of the Snow White and the Hag Doll Set at my local Disney Store this afternoon. I put my raffle ticket in at 12:30 pm, got a take out lunch, and returned for the drawing of the winners shortly before 1 pm. I was called first, and for some reason this time the manager called me by my full name, which I had to pronounce for her. LOL.
As soon as I was called, I went to the one register that was handling the doll release. At first the CM was going to put the doll in the shopping bag without asking if I wanted to inspect the dolls. I had to ask him myself, and he agreed, but he said that they inspect all the dolls beforehand. Then I asked if I could take photos of my doll at the counter. He said no, that he had to keep the line moving, but I was free to take photos after paying for it. So I felt a bit rushed and did a cursory inspection. Snow's hair was a bit messy, but there were no major defects, so I put the cover back on, and paid for the doll. She is #2595 of 6000.
After I paid for the doll, I walked to a nearby rest area in the mall to take photos. There was a large table and couches and chairs there. I took a few photos, and I noticed that Snow's pose wasn't all that elegant. Her head was pointing up too much, so neither her nor the Hag were looking at anything in particular. I also noticed that her left lashes (on our right) were a bit messy, but nothing too bad.
I will debox her and of course attempt to fix her hair and pose. I will post full set of photos
of the set boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed shortly.
