Deboxing Moana. The doll and accessories have been removed from the backing. Moana still has various factory restraints on her, and is supported by the included display stand. Then the large plastic support piece behind her is removed, and she is removed from the stand.
Here are detailed photos of my Disney Store Limited Edition Moana 17 inch doll, boxed and deboxed. She is #1531 of 6500. I also got a spare Moana that I will leave mint in box, but I haven't looked to see what edition number that doll has.
She has mock sand on her feet, and there is also sand on the base for Pua. Somewhat like glitter, the sand does shed, and found its way on the sides of the box, and on the doll itself. Some of the sand on the tips of her toes also got rubbed off.
Moana has a unique body, but is fully articulated. She has ball jointed neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles. Instead of the chest joint that are on most of the female Disney Store 17 inch LE dolls, Moana has a waist pivot joint that allows her upper torso to spin around 360 degrees. This is similar to the Designer Princess waist joint, but is lower down her back, just above her butt. That is doubtless due to her bare midriff. With large her flat feet, Moana can free stand very stably. But I think that some of her joints are a little too loose, especially her waist joint.
Her body proportions are also unique for a Disney LE doll, but that is due to those of the animated character herself. In particular, her arms and legs are thicker than the other LE Princess dolls. Rather than the flat hands of the other LE Princess dolls, Moana has curved hands, which I think look more natural. Her face is very pretty and a very good likeness of the animated character. She has thick eyebrows, big brown eyes glancing to her upper right. She has short painted eyelashes, but no rooted eyelashes (like the LE Merida dolls). She has a large flat nose, and full dark brown lips in a closed mouth smile.
She has dark brown wavy hair that has a lot of hair product, so it feels a bit crunchy. Some of her hair was actually stuck to the plastic support, her body and her clothes, due to the hair product not being fully dry when she was assembled. There was also some bits of tissue paper stuck to her hair.
She has a garland of cloth leaves and plastic flowers on her head, It is permanently attached to her head. There are plastic leafy bands around her left arm and both ankles. The arm band was rather loose, and I had to keep on moving it back up her arm. I think it could use a rubber band to keep it tight, which I don't think I accidently cut when deboxing her. Her ankle bands did have rubber bands around them. She has a beaded plastic necklace with a shell pendant that opens. I removed the large rubber band around her upper chest and the plastic support that kept the pendent attached to her top. But I left the rubber bands that kept the upper part of the necklace in place. She has an short satin orange top with white beaded decoration. There is a matching belt or sash around her hips, over her skirt. Her skirt has two woven layers, with a straw underskirt.
Pua is very stable on the sand dune base (and there are indentations in the base to show where to place him). Hei Hei can free stand on Pua's head, but you have to place him very carefully, using the indentations on Pua's head as a guide. He can also be made secure by a rubberband around Pua's head and over Hei Hei's feet.
Moana's oar is placed on her left side in the box, but the way the handle is formed on the oar, it fits most easily on her right hand (to our left when she faces us).
First Edition Disney Store Merida with the famous "green nose" problem. I bought her nude and second hand.
Her nose, the ears, hands, feet, knees and chin were green (production fail), and her hair was a bit frizzy. Result after 2 weeks work :)
Anna's coronation gown is fairly accurate, except for the heavily glittered skirt. I would have preferred the version that was in the Disney Parks Anna Doll Dress Set (2016). The glitter sheds readily, including on her legs, which is hard to get off since the rubbery legs have a sticky surface. However, the glitter does make the skirt stiff so it can keep a full shape with the need for a petticoat. Her pendant necklace is by far the most accurate that has been produced for a 12 inch doll. Her face mold is the same as the one they produced for the OFA 12 inch Anna dolls. Her face paint is very similar, except that they made her freckles more prominent and her rouge is darker. Her hair is also essentially the same as on the OFA doll, except for a prominent white streak. Whereas the pendant looks very good, her crown looks mighty cheap. She has black flats. Her outfit is a definite improvement over the 2014 Deluxe Singing Anna Doll, but I wish she had her old cute face.
I just bought the newly released 12 inch singing dolls from my local Disney Store. They are not yet available online. They had Aurora (as Briar Rose), Belle (in her Winter outfit) and Anna (in her Coronation outfit). They are $19.95 each, and have the same packaging as the Ariel, Cinderella, Elsa, Jasmine and Moana singing dolls released in 2018. They sing for about 15 seconds when you twist their left hand (to your right as you face them). Aurora sings 'Once Upon a Dream' acapella, Belle sings 'Something There' acapella and Anna sings 'Love Is an Open Door' with musical accompaniment.

First Look. Personal photos.
The new Eric 21'' plush is a good match for the new 21'' Ariel plush (in pink dress). He looks pretty good, and is solidly built. However the expression on his face is a little goofy, with the puzzled eyebrows and his mouth in a smirk. His eyes are wide open and staring straight ahead, with his pupils rather small. Almost as though he has been hypnotized by Vanessa. He looks spiffy in his white shirt, red satin sash, blue pants and black rubber boots.

Here are photos I took of the promo placard and display dolls at my local Disney Store today. They were only supposed to display the Cinderella doll (which is actually the second doll to be released). But the manager brought out the Snow White, Jasmine and Ariel dolls from the back so I can see them and take photos. They have not yet received the last two dolls to be released, Tiana and Belle. The placard lists the release dates and photos of the dolls, along with their edition sizes. They will be released one per week on Saturday, starting on October 6, rather than the usual Tuesday. They will start to hand out vouchers starting an hour before store opening and lasting about 30 minutes. They will then announce the winners of the raffle about 20 minutes before store opening, who may then purchase the doll being released that day. The online release will take place at 12:01 AM (Pacific time) on the morning of that same day. Each doll will cost $109.95.
The schedule of releases (for the US and Canada):
Snow White, 10/6/2018, LE 4100

Deboxing Classic Ariel. The front clear plastic cover has been removed. Ariel and Flounder are still attached to the cardboard backing, and are now in clear view.
Detailed photos of the new Classic Ariel doll. I love her face. But most of her hair is very stiff with hair product, so I found it hard to make it neater and fix the stray hairs. Her satin fins are okay, but there is a stained patch (glue?). I like the 2012 Classic Ariel fins better, but these new ones are definitely better than the tulle fins that most recent Classic Ariel dolls have had. I was going to compare her side by side with last year's Classic Ariel, but I can't find her at the moment.

Deboxing Designer Snow White. She is removed from the inner box by undoing the tabs and wires holding the doll and stage to the inner box. Then the large plastic support is removed from her head and back, and remaining factory restraints removed from the doll's outfit. Then the doll is removed from the stage by freeing the display stand. Then the display stand is removed from the doll. We lay down the doll and inspect her outfit.
I received my Disney Designer Collection Premiere Series Snow White Limited Edition Doll today. I had ordered her online at the release day, shortly after 12 AM in the morning of Saturday October 6, 2018. She is #1301 of 4100. She came in a shipper box that is approximately the same size as the LE 17 inch doll shippers. It original shipping label said GIRLS TOYS LE PR DSGN SNOW DOLL F18, and CART #: 01298. There was a small piece of masking tape stuck to the side of the box with the actual edition number (matching the CoA): 1301. Inside there was another corrugated cardboard box snugly fitting in the outer shipping box. Inside that was the actual doll box, which was covered with tissue paper, and fit snugly in the inner shipping box, with cardboard caps on the top and bottom of the doll box. The shipper box was undamaged in transit, as was the inner box and the doll box itself.
The doll box has folding panels in the front with magnetic closure, with a large design sketch of Snow White and the year 1937 in large numerals. In the background are photographers in silhouette snapping photos, and a red carpet. The back of the box has angled corners, making for a hexagonal shaped box. The sides and back of the box also has images of Snow White. The top of the box has a clear window with the title of the collection in gold lettering. Inside the front covers are replicas of the movie poster, invitation and tickets to the premiere of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs at the Carthay Circle Theatre in Los Angeles, on December 21, 1937. The doll is behind a rectangular viewing window extending almost the full width and height of the box.
The inner box containing the doll and front viewing window can be slid out from the outer box. It is entirely enclosed, so can be displayed as is, without having to deal with the front covers either covering up the doll, or taking up space in front or to the sides of the inner box. The doll is on top a red carpet that has steps in front, and is flocked cardboard.
The doll herself is by far my favorite of the current Designer Premiere Series. I'm slightly biased because Snow White is my favorite Disney Princess, and am so happy that she turned out so well. I think her gown and accessories are very beautifully designed and produced. It also is very fitting for Snow White, and would be something she would wear to the premiere of her own movie.
I show her boxed, with the inner box removed from the outer box, and finally with the front viewing window removed from the inner box.
I will fully debox her tomorrow and post photos here when I do.
I just received the Disney Designer Collection Premiere Series merchandise that I ordered online when they were released last Monday, September 17, 2018. They are the notecard set, the limited edition ornament set, and the limited edition pin sets. All of these items sold out on the release day. The notecards and possibly the ornament set will be available in stores later this month.
The two pin sets have three of the Designer Princesses each, ordered by the year of their original movie's release. Set one contains Snow White, Cinderella and Ariel. Set two contains Belle, Jasmine and Tiana. They are LE 4800 and cost $24.95 each. The pins are screen printed, and are not covered by clear enamel, unlike other printed pins that I have. They are only 1.5 inches high. That is much smaller than previous Designer pins, which were to 2.5 inches high or wide, except for the 2 inch pins in the 2017 set. They are nice looking as a set next to each other, but look pathetic next to previous Designer pins, especially the ones prior to 2017. I demonstrate this by placing the various Designer Snow White pins next to each other.

The Beast 12'' doll standing, supported by a Kaiser stand. Wearing his winter outfit, with his cape off. With the cape off, his skinny body is revealed, as well as the strange neck. He is wearing a dress shirt and pants, that are sewn together. His tail is attached to his pants.
The removable cape is blue velvet on the outside and dark red satin on the inside. It contains foam padding to make the Beast appear much bulkier than his actual body. The collar of the cape doesn't fully cover the Beast's awkward looking neck in the back. My Beast's neck joint was very loose, meaning that it would spin around without any resistance, and was hard to make it keep a pose (that wasn't straight ahead).
Detailed photos of the dolls in the Beauty and the Beast Deluxe Doll Set, deboxed. They include the 1/6 scale Beast, Belle and Gaston dolls, and the Philippe plush. Beast and Belle are in their winter outfits. I show Beast and Belle both with and without their capes. The bluebird figurine is included with Belle when she has her cape on. Beast is not that stable free standing, so I support him with a Kaiser stand for these photos.
I just got the Beauty and the Beast Deluxe Doll Set ($79.95) from my local Disney Store (on Thursday June 30, 2016). The accessory figures look really detailed and well done. In fact, I like Chip better in this set than the one with the new Classic Belle doll. Also the bluebird looks nicer than the one with the new Classic Snow White. Belle and Beast are in their winter outfits. Belle also has her blue peasant outfit and her yellow ball gown. Beast also has his formal outfit. Philippe is way too small, but is a very cute plush. I like this set way better than the ones for Aladdin or Sleeping Beauty.
Deboxing Moana. The doll and accessories have been removed from the backing. Moana still has various factory restraints on her, and is supported by the included display stand.
Here are detailed photos of my Disney Store Limited Edition Moana 17 inch doll, boxed and deboxed. She is #1531 of 6500. I also got a spare Moana that I will leave mint in box, but I haven't looked to see what edition number that doll has.
She has mock sand on her feet, and there is also sand on the base for Pua. Somewhat like glitter, the sand does shed, and found its way on the sides of the box, and on the doll itself. Some of the sand on the tips of her toes also got rubbed off.
Moana has a unique body, but is fully articulated. She has ball jointed neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles. Instead of the chest joint that are on most of the female Disney Store 17 inch LE dolls, Moana has a waist pivot joint that allows her upper torso to spin around 360 degrees. This is similar to the Designer Princess waist joint, but is lower down her back, just above her butt. That is doubtless due to her bare midriff.

She has thick eyebrows, big brown eyes glancing to her upper right. She has short painted eyelashes, but no rooted eyelashes (like the LE Merida dolls). She has a large flat nose, and full dark brown lips in a closed mouth smile.
She has dark brown wavy hair that has a lot of hair product, so it feels a bit crunchy. Some of her hair was actually stuck to the plastic support, her body and her clothes, due to the hair product not being fully dry when she was assembled.

Her ankle bands did have rubber bands around them. She has a beaded plastic necklace with a shell pendant that opens. I removed the large rubber band around her upper chest and the plastic support that kept the pendent attached to her top. But I left the rubber bands that kept the upper part of the necklace in place. She has an short satin orange top with white beaded decoration. There is a matching belt or sash around her hips, over her skirt. Her skirt has two woven layers, with a straw underskirt.
Pua is very stable on the sand dune base (and there are indentations in the base to show where to place him). Hei Hei can free stand on Pua's head, but you have to place him very carefully, using the indentations on Pua's head as a guide. He can also be made secure by a rubberband around Pua's head and over Hei Hei's feet.
Moana's oar is placed on her left side in the box, but the way the handle is formed on the oar, it fits most easily on her right hand (to our left when she faces us).
Deboxing the Aurora and Maleficent Doll Set. Aurora's stool has been freed from the display case, and is free standing. It is a five sided stool with a flat purple seat and ornate antique brass looking sides. Here the deboxed Aurora is sitting on the stool. Because of her leg joints, she can't really sit on the stool, but instead is leaning against it, with her butt balanced on the edge of the stool. This is similar to how last year's Designer Ariel doll had to be balanced on her rock stool while in the sitting position. Aurora's skirt is spread out in front of her, which looks much better than the factory pose in the cramped quarters of the display case.
Here are detailed photos of the Aurora and Maleficent Doll Set. This is the fourth and last release of the 2016 Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. It is #1335 of 6000.
I got it in my local Disney Store's raffle at lunch time, on release day, Tuesday October 18, 2016. About 8-10 people showed up for the raffle, for 18 doll sets. So about the same number of people for each of the releases in this series. I saw three sets before I was satisfied with mine, mainly due to Aurora's curly bang not laying right against her forehead, and/or too many stray hairs.

New Version 2012-09-05
The Disney Store has finally fixed the faces of the stepsisters, after many complaints by Disney guests. They have switched the heads of the two sisters Anastasia and Drizella. Anastasia now has the crossed eyes, frown and weak chin, and Drizella has the goofy smile and long chin. They now are movie accurate. The other dolls have been left alone. I hope they will have the new version in stores soon.
Thanks to Flickr member Dementor92 for informing me of this change.

I got the Anna and Elsa Doll Set for Olaf's Frozen Adventure, from my local Disney Store on Wednesday September 27, 2017. They are in the new Holiday outfits, made of faux suede. Elsa has a cape attached to the back of her dress, and has a fur collar with embedded red jewels. Anna has a jacket that is sewn to her bodice. They both have the new style rubber legs with flat feet. Elsa has flat heeled ice shoes, which are a loose fit. Anna has boots with low heels. Anna is about 1/4 inch taller than Elsa (11 1/2 vs 11 1/4 inches), which looks awkward when they are side by side. They both have new face sculpts, for the first time since their original Classic dolls were introduced in 2013. I like how they look, but I like Elsa more than Anna. The old faces looked younger and cuter, but the new faces are more movie accurate.

Belle is in her pink and red winter outfit. She has a dark red velvet cape with white fur trim, which is secured with a red ribbon tied in the front. Her pink satin dress skirt has a center light pink panel in the skirt with dark pink glitter roses which don't shed. Her dark brown hair is stiffened in the ends to keep its curl, which looks messy in the box pose. I tried to make it as even and neat as I could after deboxing her, but it still has a Medusa look. She is wearing dark pink flats, which match the color of her skirt.
I just bought the newly released 12 inch singing dolls from my local Disney Store. They are not yet available online. They had Aurora (as Briar Rose), Belle (in her Winter outfit) and Anna (in her Coronation outfit). They are $19.95 each, and have the same packaging as the Ariel, Cinderella, Elsa, Jasmine and Moana singing dolls released in 2018. They sing for about 15 seconds when you twist their left hand (to your right as you face them). Aurora sings 'Once Upon a Dream' acapella, Belle sings 'Something There' acapella and Anna sings 'Love Is an Open Door' with musical accompaniment.
Anna fully deboxed and standing, supported by a Kaiser stand.

They both have the new style rubber legs with flat feet. Elsa has flat heeled ice shoes, which are a loose fit. Anna has boots with low heels. Anna is about 1/4 inch taller than Elsa (11 1/2 vs 11 1/4 inches), which looks awkward when they are side by side. They both have new face sculpts, for the first time since their original Classic dolls were introduced in 2013. I like how they look, but I like Elsa more than Anna. The old faces looked younger and cuter, but the new faces are more movie accurate.

I got Ariel today. I ordered her online on release day, October 27, 2018. She is #2047 of 4500. She and the box arrived in perfect shape. However, the invitation card has slipped down in the plastic sleeve, and won't stay up. I love her face and hair, but her dress is a bit too gaudy for my taste, although it is appropriate for an 80's girl. Her hair is stiff at the ends to keep its curl, so it got a little messy when I broke it up to even out her hair in the back. I cut off the rubber band securing the purse string to her shoulder. I had to use a little tape to keep it from sliding off her shoulder afterwards. I show her boxed, during deboxing, and fully deboxed. I have her now on my desk, right next to me as I type this. It is convenient that I got her just before the next one, Tiana, is released tomorrow.

I just received the Beauty and the Beast Limited Edition Figurine from the Disney Store, that I ordered online when it was released last Monday. It is still available from the US Disney Store website. It is LE 1100, and cost $199.95.
It is musical and plays a 15 second segment of 'Beauty and the Beast' repeatedly when the key is turned. It is 10 inches high including the base (which is 7 inches in diameter). The Beast is 8 inches tall and Belle is about 7 inches tall. The figures are made of resin. It weighs a hefty 5.5 pounds (2.5 kg), and came in a very large shipping box weighing 12 pounds. It comes with a hand numbered Certificate of Authenticity, mine is 964 of 1100. The same number is written under the base.
It has an excellent paint job and is marvelously detailed. The only exception, unfortunately, is the face of Belle. There is a sharp ridge down the middle of her nose, there are small defects in the paint and mold, and she isn't as accurate a representation of her character as is the Beast. But viewed from a normal distance, she does look very presentable.
I show the box and the figure from all angles. I also compare the figure with the Lenox Belle and Beast porcelain wedding figure.
Classic Disney Princess Belle Doll - 12''
US Disney Store
$14.95
Released online June 10, 2013.
I like this new Belle doll for 2013. I think she is an improvement over the 2012 model, but has remained mostly the same. Her head mold is the same, and face appears to be the same except for rounder eyebrows, so she looks sweet rather than sassy or cunning. Her face is very pretty and is more youthful, but is still not that movie accurate. Her hairdo is similar to that of the 2012 doll, but the bun is larger, the side curls are gone, the main curls are gentler and the hair is in a single mass. The hair also seems to be shorter and less voluminous. Her gown is the same basic design, but is a lighter golden yellow than the 2012 doll. The bodice appears ot be glitter free, and the skirt has the gold glitter arranged in a nice floral pattern. She is unfortunately missing her golden yellow gloves. Another major change, common to all the 2013 Classic Princess dolls, is the replacement of the fully articulated legs with the old rubber legs, with fixed angled feet and internal knee joints. I would rather that they fixed the problems with the 2012 legs, but the rubber legs do look a lot better, with the disadvantage of being much less posable.
The 2013 Disney Princess Classic Doll Collection, released on June 10, 2013. They consist of 11-12'' articulated dolls of the 11 official Disney Princesses, from Snow White to Merida, as well as Princes, Villains and Sidekicks. Images from the US Disney Store website. When I get the dolls in person, I will also photograph them boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed. I will also post reviews and comparative photos.

I just received the Snow White Dance Party Playset from the Disney Store. I had ordered two of them when they were released last Monday (Sept 24), and they came in the original shipper box packed together. That reminds me of how the two Disney Princess Designer Collection Snow White dolls came two to a box when I ordered them together. The two playsets were placed facing each other, with a tissue paper between them and on top, with no wriggle room. The shipper box was intact except for a small dent in one corner, which translated into a dent in one of the playsets. The other playset box was in almost perfect condition, so I chose the dented one to debox.
It is available online in the US ShopDisney site for $29.95, but I haven't seen it in the local Disney Stores yet.
This is a wonderful set depicting one of the best scenes in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Snow White dances with Dopey (who is standing on Sneezy), while Grumpy plays the organ. There is also a chair, a bluebird and a small deer in the set. Snow White is a 11.5 inch tall Classic Princess doll with an accurate depiction of her Princess gown. There is glitter on her dark blue bodice, but none on her pale yellow skirt. She has flat feet and yellow flats. Her hair is heavily gelled to keep its style, so it is quite stiff throughout.
The rest of the contents of the set are figures. Grumpy is made to sit in the organ seat, with his hands on the keyboard. The organ pipes move up and down when Grumpy's accordion-like seat is pressed. The deer free stands very stably. Dopey is in a long coat, with Sneezy underneath him. Sneezy is mostly hidden under the coat, but his lower legs and feet stick out the bottom. Dopey/Sneezy can free stand very stably, even with the odd dancing stance of Sneezy's feet.
The cardboard backing has artwork depicting the inside of the Dwarfs' cottage. So after deboxing the contents, the backing can be opened up to provide a backdrop for the dancing scene.
The set can be placed back in the original box after deboxing, which I show in my last photo.

Belle is in her pink and red winter outfit. She has a dark red velvet cape with white fur trim, which is secured with a red ribbon tied in the front. Her pink satin dress skirt has a center light pink panel in the skirt with dark pink glitter roses which don't shed. Her dark brown hair is stiffened in the ends to keep its curl, which looks messy in the box pose. I tried to make it as even and neat as I could after deboxing her, but it still has a Medusa look. She is wearing dark pink flats, which match the color of her skirt.
I just bought the newly released 12 inch singing dolls from my local Disney Store. They are not yet available online. They had Aurora (as Briar Rose), Belle (in her Winter outfit) and Anna (in her Coronation outfit). They are $19.95 each, and have the same packaging as the Ariel, Cinderella, Elsa, Jasmine and Moana singing dolls released in 2018. They sing for about 15 seconds when you twist their left hand (to your right as you face them). Aurora sings 'Once Upon a Dream' acapella, Belle sings 'Something There' acapella and Anna sings 'Love Is an Open Door' with musical accompaniment.

I like her a lot more than I thought I would from the stock and leaked photos. I don't think she looks goofy, even with her smirk. But I do think that her in box pose is very awkward. The nicest thing I've discovered about the doll is that she has lavender tights, which compares nicely with the green tights of FF Anna.
I show her in box, and with all the covers removed. I will debox her later. I show her next to my deboxed Frozen Fever Anna doll, who I think is closest to her in design among the Anna LE dolls.

Belle's horse Philippe. He is a plush toy that is 10 inches high and 10 inches long. He is too small to be to scale with the other dolls in this set. A better match would be the separately sold medium Philippe plush ($19.95), who available in some Disney Stores. His saddle is removable. His bridle and reins are tacked to his body.
Detailed photos of the dolls in the Beauty and the Beast Deluxe Doll Set, deboxed. They include the 1/6 scale Beast, Belle and Gaston dolls, and the Philippe plush. Beast and Belle are in their winter outfits. I show Beast and Belle both with and without their capes. The bluebird figurine is included with Belle when she has her cape on. Beast is not that stable free standing, so I support him with a Kaiser stand for these photos.
I just got the Beauty and the Beast Deluxe Doll Set ($79.95) from my local Disney Store (on Thursday June 30, 2016). The accessory figures look really detailed and well done. In fact, I like Chip better in this set than the one with the new Classic Belle doll. Also the bluebird looks nicer than the one with the new Classic Snow White. Belle and Beast are in their winter outfits. Belle also has her blue peasant outfit and her yellow ball gown. Beast also has his formal outfit. Philippe is way too small, but is a very cute plush. I like this set way better than the ones for Aladdin or Sleeping Beauty.
I just received the Anna Couture de Force Figure from the Disney Store. She is $69.95, $5 less expensive than the Elsa figure. She was actually shipped by Enesco, the manufacturer. She is an 8 inch high resin figure of Anna in her black and green Coronation outfit. She is holding a pink fan in one hand and holding up her skirt in the other. It recalls the scene of her singing the "sophisticated grace" part of "For the First Time in Forever." She is a very pretty figure, with lots of details that are true of the movie character. There is gold glitter on the fan, which does shed. There are two minor but noticeable defects in the figure. One is that the gold glitter is applied unevenly on the front of the fan. The other is that there is a small gash in her left shoulder (to our right), that also cuts into the strap of her gown. Other than that, the details and painting are very nicely down. She is very sturdy free standing, and is considerably heavier than the companion Elsa figure.
I photograph Anna from all angles, and also show her with the Elsa Couture de Force Figure. I like the rendering of Elsa's face better than Anna, and Elsa's transparent cape is amazing, and is unlike that of any other Elsa figure. But the Anna figure is matches with Elsa very well. Both of them are still available from the US Disney Store website.

The old faces looked younger and cuter, but the new faces are more movie accurate.

Tiana has been fully deboxed. She is standing, supported by the included display stand.
Deboxing Tiana. I fixed the broken purse chain by using thread. It took me three tries and about 45 minutes to fix it so it didn't come loose again while posing her with the purse. I left the rubber band that secures the purse chain to her shoulder alone.
I received my Premiere Series Tiana doll on Friday, November 9. I had ordered her online from the Disney Store when she was released last Saturday, November 3, 2018. She is #253 of 4000. She is unusual in that her CoA number is only one greater than the Cart #252 that is on the original shipper label. All the other Premiere Series dolls so far have had an edition number 3 greater than the Cart #. The box and doll are close to perfect, except for a broken chain on her purse. I have read that this is a fairly common defect in the doll. Rather than trying to get a replacement from the Disney Store I think I will try to fix it on my own. She has a beautiful face, but the outfit is my least favorite of the series. The large yellow green cloth flower on her chest is really tacky and distracting, and covers her neck and part of her face. The neon yellow green of the skirt is also too gaudy for me, looks like a tutu, and the floral embroidery on her skirt looks childish. Her shoes are lovely, however. She is the fifth of the six doll series, with Belle being the last release in the US and Canada.
I show the box, and the doll with successive layers of the box removed, until the doll is in clear view. I will debox the doll soon.

Belle is in her pink and red winter outfit. She has a dark red velvet cape with white fur trim, which is secured with a red ribbon tied in the front. Her pink satin dress skirt has a center light pink panel in the skirt with dark pink glitter roses which don't shed. Her dark brown hair is stiffened in the ends to keep its curl, which looks messy in the box pose. I tried to make it as even and neat as I could after deboxing her, but it still has a Medusa look. She is wearing dark pink flats, which match the color of her skirt.
I just bought the newly released 12 inch singing dolls from my local Disney Store. They are not yet available online. They had Aurora (as Briar Rose), Belle (in her Winter outfit) and Anna (in her Coronation outfit). They are $19.95 each, and have the same packaging as the Ariel, Cinderella, Elsa, Jasmine and Moana singing dolls released in 2018. They sing for about 15 seconds when you twist their left hand (to your right as you face them). Aurora sings 'Once Upon a Dream' acapella, Belle sings 'Something There' acapella and Anna sings 'Love Is an Open Door' with musical accompaniment.
Detailed photos of the Olaf's Frozen Adventure Elsa Limited Edition Doll. I got her from my local Disney Store on release day, Tuesday December 12, 2017, along with Anna. I was the only one waiting for the dolls before the store opened. She is #3818 of 7000.
I like her very much, both her new face and outfit. But she does have a couple of defects. One is that her hair is a bit messy on top, where part of her crown of bangs going the wrong way. The other is that there is a shallow cut on her forehead, that is especially visible when looking straight on in bright lighting. I think of it as a scar from the fight in the ice castle. The nicest thing I've discovered about the doll is that she has dark blue ice heels.
I show her in box, and with all the covers removed. I will debox her later. I show her next to my deboxed Frozen Fever Elsa doll and Harrods Snow Queen Elsa doll. Unlike those two dolls, OFA Elsa's cape doesn't have any embroidery. The snowflake and icicle patterns are depicted using glued on silver glitter appliques and clear crystals. Her dress does have considerable use of embroidery.

Detailed photos of the Olaf's Frozen Adventure Anna Limited Edition Doll. I got her from my local Disney Store on release day, Tuesday December 12, 2017, along with Elsa. I was the only one waiting for the dolls before the store opened. She is #1234 of 7000, which I think is a really cool number.
I like her a lot more than I thought I would from the stock and leaked photos. I don't think she looks goofy, even with her smirk. But I do think that her in box pose is very awkward. The nicest thing I've discovered about the doll is that she has lavender tights, which compares nicely with the green tights of FF Anna.
I show her in box, and with all the covers removed. I will debox her later. I show her next to my deboxed Frozen Fever Anna doll, who I think is closest to her in design among the Anna LE dolls.
