Rapunzel and Flynn Rider are now fully deboxed. They are placed back on the display stand. Rapunzel is standing, supported by the built-in doll stand. Rather than place Flynn back on his doll stand, I stood him up on his own, behind Rapunzel's right side. This is so that Rapunzel could face forward, while not completely blocking the view of Flynn. I also tried to put them in a more romantic pose by having Flynn helping Rapunzel hold the lantern up. Flynn's other hand is on Rapunzel's waist. They are both looking straight ahead, but definitely have a connection with each other.

Eric is the first to be removed from the display stand. He is place on a counter to inspect his outfit, and partially disassemble it. First, his sash and belt are sewn together, so I cut the stitching (except for one), so I could remove it. The belt has a Velcro closure, but the sash is just tied together with the loose ends hanging like a men's tie. The belt and sash are removed, and his shirt and pants are partly opened to show his back. On his lower back is stamped his edition number and size: #1145 of 6000. He has dark blue painted on underpants, matching the color of his pants. His rolled up sleeves are sewn in that position, and has considerable fraying from the inside of the cuffs. It should be easy to free the cuffs, and roll down the sleeves. However, they don't look like they are full length, and would stop short of his wrists.

 

Deboxing my Limited Edition Ariel and Eric Doll Set, #1145 of 6000. They are in their display case, with the clear acrylic cover removed. They are attached to the cardboard backing and plastic spacer, and also supported by the built in doll stands. Then the backing is opened by cutting the tape holding the sides together.

Then the dolls are removed from the backing, but are still attached to the plastic spacer, and to the doll stand. Ariel's skirt is also tacked to the cardboard at the base of the stand. Next the backing is cut off from the base, so that we are able to view the dolls from all angles. The backing stored with the acrylic cover. Then the spacer is removed from the dolls. It is necessary to cut the plastic ties that attach the back of Ariel's head to the spacer. After the spacer is removed, the dolls are still attached to the doll stand by wires.

 

I just received my second Ariel and Eric Doll set, that I ordered online last Wednesday, October 16, 2013. It is #1145 of 6000. At first look, my new set looks almost perfect, with a Ariel in a better pose, her eyelashes more even, and the collar neater than in my #12 pre-ordered set. It almost seems a shame to debox the dolls, rather leaving them as is, but I need to free them from all the packing material, so they can be posed with other dolls, and when reboxed, be able to be viewed from all angles. Photographed boxed, during deboxed, and fully deboxed using built-in camera flash.

My two Jasmine and Aladdin Doll Sets, from the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. I actually only ordered one set online, but got a big surprise when I got home and saw two identical boxes waiting for me on my front porch. The boxes even had the same tracking numbers, and identical order numbers on the packing slips. I double checked my order, and only one doll and one bag are listed. Also my bank account only got charged for one set of dolls. One of them is number 899 of 6000, and the other is 4555 of 6000. The #4555 dolls are posed perfectly, just like the in box promo photos, so I've decided to leave that set alone, and debox #899. I consider them twins, even though they don't have sequential serial numbers, because they arrived at the same time, when I was only expecting one. This definitely more than makes up for the fact that I couldn't get the dolls in store, and had to wait a week to get them shipped to me.

The Limited Edition Ariel and Eric Doll Set, #12 of 6000, in their display case, with the clear acrylic cover removed. None of the factory restraints have been removed, but I have cleaned up Ariel's face a bit, and cut off a loose thread from her blouse. Photographed using built-in camera flash.

 

My pre-ordered Ariel and Eric Doll Set, from the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. It arrived on October 15, 2013, and I was thrilled to see that they are numbered #012 of 6000! It matches the number of the other doll sets in the pre-order, except that Snow White and the Prince is #4508 of 6000. There are some slight scratches on the gold nameplate and on the acrylic cover of the display case, but they are very minor, and don't diminish the look of the set. Ariel's head is posed a bit awkwardly, but I'll see if I can adjust it a bit without undoing any of the shipping restraints. There is also a loose thread hanging from the left sleeve of Ariel's blouse. Otherwise, Ariel and Eric look very beautiful, and in perfect shape. I'm so happy that I have them after failing to get them in the in-store raffle earlier in the day.

 

I'm not going to debox the dolls in this set, but I am going to take photos of it boxed, with the cover sleeve off, and with the clear acrylic cover off, to show off the dolls as much as possible without actually removing them from their factory restraints.

Aladdin is laid face down on a counter to continue the deboxing process. The only thing left to do is the remove the wire from around his waist. His shirt is opened in the back to make removing the wire easier. I discover that his belt is a separate piece, fastened in the back with Velcro, and the cape is removable on his left shoulder, but it is sewn to the right shoulder of his shirt. There are manufacturer's markings on his lower back, including his edition number and size (#899 of 6000), which matches his Certificate of Authenticity.

 

The plastic spacer is then removed from the backs of the two dolls. The next step is to

free the dolls from the built in doll stands. Aladdin is the first to be removed. There are wires around his legs, securing him to the doll stand and a small spacer. His hands are freed from Jasmines by cutting some rubber bands. I accidentally snipped the tip of one of Jasmine's fingers off. Oops!

 

The cardboard backing has been cut open to reveal the ends of the various fasteners used to secure the dolls and plastic spacers to the backing. Then the large spacer is freed from the backing, and the backing is laid down flat, revealing the backs of the dolls, who are still attached to the spacer, the doll stands, and the bottom of the backing. Next the backing is cut off from the base of the display stand. The bottom of the backing is still stuck to the base with double stick tape. The backing, with the Certificate of Authenticity attached, is put away inside of the acrylic top of the case, which is then placed in the original shipping carton.

 

The slipcover has been taken off, to reveal the dolls inside the display case. The dolls can be seen from three sides and the top of the clear acrylic case. The base of the case is gold filigree pattern over black, with a golden nameplate in front. The cardboard backing secures the dolls in their factory poses, and contains the Certificate of Authenticity. Then the acrylic cover is taken off, so the dolls are now in clear view.

 

Deboxing my Limited Edition Jasmine and Aladdin Doll Set, #899 of 6000, from the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. Flash is used in most of these photos, as the the sunlight had faded.

Deboxing Cinderella. Prince Charming has been deboxed, but Cinderella is still attached to the doll stand. Her skirt is raised to show the wires around her ankles and the tissue paper stuffing under her dress. She is wearing glass slippers, that are flats rather than heels. I'm glad that her shoes are clear plastic, but disappointed that they are not high heeled. In this view her feet look appropriately tiny.

 

Deboxing the Cinderella and Prince Charming Doll Set. The covers have been removed, and the cardboard backing cut open. The dolls are then freed from the backing, but are still attached to the plastic spacer and doll stands. The backing is then cut off from the base of the display stand. Then the dolls are freed from the spacer.

 

The Cinderella and Prince Charming Doll Set, the third release in the 2014 Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. I got Cinderella today (Tuesday Oct 7, 2014) at my local Disney Store. There were 15 people entered for 16 dolls. She is #4755 of 6000. Her curly hair is in more of an updo than the curly pony tale of the stock image. But that may be just how it was packaged, and may drop down into a ponytail when I debox her. She has exactly the same head position as the artwork and deboxed stock photo, so no Exorcist head here. Here are some preliminary photos of the set boxed, and then with the covers removed. I will be fully deboxing her in the next day or two.

Fairytale Designer Eric has been fully deboxed, and is posed free standing. Photographed in natural light.

 

I've finally decided to watermark all my photos that I upload to Flickr, from now on. I'm getting tired of seeing my photos used without my permission to sell other people's merchandise on eBay, especially for LE items. So my name on my photos will hopefully help deter people from doing that in the future.

 

Eric has the Classic Disney Prince body, but a unique head sculpt. He has ivory colored satin shirt, with rolled up long sleeves. His rolled up sleeves are sewn in that position, and has considerable fraying from the inside of the cuffs. It should be easy to free the cuffs, and roll down the sleeves. However, they don't look like they are full length, and would stop short of his wrists. He has navy blue pants, wide red sash with a separate belt over it. He has dark blue painted on underpants, matching the color of his pants. He has black boots that are a little more realistic that the usual Disney Prince footwear. His edition number and size are stamped on his back.

 

I just received my second Ariel and Eric Doll set, that I ordered online last Wednesday, October 16, 2013. It is #1145 of 6000. At first look, my new set looks almost perfect, with a Ariel in a better pose, her eyelashes more even, and the collar neater than in my #12 pre-ordered set. It almost seems a shame to debox the dolls, rather leaving them as is, but I need to free them from all the packing material, so they can be posed with other dolls, and when reboxed, be able to be viewed from all angles.

The plastic spacer is then removed from the backs of the two dolls. The next step is to free the dolls from the built in doll stands. The Beast is the first to be removed. Once the wires tying him to the doll stand, and the rubber band tying him to Belle's arm are removed, the Beast is freed from the stand, which is clamped to his waist. He is placed on the counter to inspect him. There are no further fasteners to remove, except that I chose to leave the jacket sewn to the front of the shirt. He is now fully deboxed.

 

The cardboard backing has been cut open to reveal the ends of the various fasteners used to secure the dolls and plastic spacers to the backing. Then the large spacer is freed from the backing, and the backing is laid down flat, revealing the backs of the dolls, who are still attached to the spacer, the doll stands, and the bottom of the backing. Next the backing is cut off from the base of the display stand. The bottom of the backing is still stuck to the base with double stick tape. The backing, with the Certificate of Authenticity attached, is put away inside of the acrylic top of the case.

 

Deboxing my Belle and the Beast Doll Set. First the illustrated slip cover is slid off the display case, revealing the dolls inside a clear acrylic enclosure. They are secured to the built in doll stands and the cardboard backing and plastic spacers by wires, rubber bands and plastic tabs. Then the clear acrylic cover is lifted off the base. In this case I had considerable difficulty freeing the cover from the base. The tabs under the base wouldn't let go of the cover, no matter what I did, until I turned the box upside down and fiddled with the tabs while I jiggled the cover. In the process Belle's hair got a bit messy, but her hair wasn't that neat to begin with, so i smoothed it a bit before taking photos of the set uncovered.

My Designer Zarina Doll has been fully deboxed, and put back on the display stand. The slip cover and acrylic lid of the case have been removed, and the cardboard backing has been cut off the base, so we have a clear view of the doll from all angles.

 

Even though she is listed as 11'' H, she actually stands 11 1/2'' high on the display stand, the same as previous Disney Designer Princess dolls. She also has the same body construction as the original Designer Princess dolls, with ball jointed neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist and hip joints. She has rubber legs with internal hinge knee jointed knees, and fixed angled feet. She has the same face mold as the Classic Zarina doll and has a very similar look. The biggest difference between them is the shine, pearly textured skin on her face and body. Her face is shinier than the rest of her body.

 

Her outfit is based on that of her movie character in The Pirate Fairy, and with details in the product description below. Her navy blue coat is made to look like part of the sleeve of a British Royal Navy officer (the insignia is that of a Lieutenant). Her fairy wings are a single piece of transparent plastic that is tinted pale orange, and is iridescent. It looks like a butterfly with its wings slightly folded. It is sewn to the back of her coat. Her sword is secured to her right hand by a piece of clear plastic and a rubber band, that I left as it was done by the factory. It allows the sword to held at an angle, or straight, and hold the pose.

 

Her hair is similar in color and style to Classic Merida, even though the movie character has much straighter hair. It has a good bit of hair product to set the curls, which makes them stiff, but the rest of her hair (on the top of her head) is smooth and soft. She has long curvy eyelashes, with antennae-like longer lashes on the outside corners of her eyes. She has thin red lips in a smirk. She has a swashbuckling attitude, and is a very beautiful and impressive looking doll.

Zarina Disney Fairies Designer Collection Doll

US Disney Store

Purchased In Store 2014-02-18

#0137 of 4000

 

First look at my Zarina Limited Edition Designer Doll. My Zarina is 0137 of 4000. There were no designer bags, as there were in the previous Designer doll collections.

 

I visited my local Disney Store on Februay 18, 2014, for the release of the Disney Fairies Designer Collection dolls. I also noticed that they had several items in the Frozen section that had been missing for several weeks, especially the mugs and Classic Anna dolls, but no Elsas.

 

They had eight of each Designer Fairy doll, Tinker Bell and Zarina. There were about that many people waiting in line before the store opened, waiting to buy them. I didn't do an actual count, but no one left the line when it was announced how many dolls there were, so there were probably seven or eight of them in the line. They had no designer bags, so they just put them in regular Disney Store bags.

 

I inspected my dolls, and they looked in perfect condition. I was surprised by their shiny pearly skin (similar in texture to LE Ursula and Harrods Elsa), but they looked very beautiful. The artwork on the boxes were also very beautiful, but the backgrounds behind the dolls were plain looking. The CM had to help me take off the slip cover of the Zarina doll, as it was very tight. She said all the Zarinas seemed to be that way.

CMC Classical Model Cars

1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Gullwing Coupe

 

Motorcar Miniatures

From CMC:

  

Who doesn't know about the famous Uhlenhaut coupé with its landmark gullwing doors? Only two prototypes of this model were built, and it was and still is a formidable street car. The irony is that most people only had the chance to see it from behind. Back then, while the fastest BMW was capable of reaching 170 km/h, and the fastest Porsche, even up to 200 km/h, the Uhlenhaut coupé could speed at nearly 300 km/h. It surely caused a lot of amazement as well as jealousy.

 

The explanation, however, is simple. Underneath the bodywork is an enhanced 3-litre Formula 1 engine. Actually the two coupés were built for racing. Their intended mission was to participate in endurance races, such as the Mille Miglia or the 24 Hours of Le Mans. But Daimler surprisingly decided to retire from professional racing at the end of 1955, and the situation changed drastically.

 

Rudolf Uhlenhaut, an ingenious engineer in charge of the Mercedes racing department, rightly decided that it would be a shame to let the two cars sit idle to gather dust in a garage. As a result, the two 300 SLR coupés became his personal company cars. Today every automobile enthusiast knows what is meant by "the Uhlenhaut coupé," even though this was never an official designation. When Rudolf went to work in the morning, the whole neighborhood noticed it. Because the 300 hp 8-cylinder would send out a throbbing uproar. And there were limits to what the additional silencer could do to reduce the deafening noise of the side pipes. Rudolf Uhlenhaut really enjoyed driving the coupés, and he also had the skills to handle these beasts of power. Contemporary witnesses confirm that he was able to drive from Stuttgart to Munich in less than an hour. Given the increasing traffic congestion, this is something we can only dream about today.

 

The Uhlenhaut coupès are not for sale. Daimler holds onto them as if they were their crown jewels. If you want to see the original Uhlenhaut coupé, you have to visit the Daimler museum in Stuttgart, Germany. If you want to see it every day, however, just put our incomparably beautiful model on display in your cabinet.

• True to the original, the interior is covered with red leather.

• The cockpit is complete with all instruments, control elements, switches and levers.

 

• Everything is replicated faithfully to the real car.

 

• Inside the trunk are two removable spare wheels, which are of different diameters, corresponding to those of the front and rear wheels respectively.

Deboxing my Limited Edition Jasmine and Aladdin Doll Set, #899 of 6000, from the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. The slipcover has been taken off, to reveal the dolls inside the display case. The dolls can be seen from three sides and the top of the clear acrylic case. The base of the case is gold filigree pattern over black, with a golden nameplate in front. The cardboard backing secures the dolls in their factory poses, and contains the Certificate of Authenticity. Then the acrylic cover is taken off, so the dolls are now in clear view. Flash is used in all these photos, as the the sunlight had faded.

Deboxing my Limited Edition Ariel and Eric Doll Set, #1145 of 6000. They are in their display case, with the clear acrylic cover removed. They are attached to the cardboard backing and plastic spacer, and also supported by the built in doll stands. Then the backing is opened by cutting the tape holding the sides together.

Then the dolls are removed from the backing, but are still attached to the plastic spacer, and to the doll stand. Ariel's skirt is also tacked to the cardboard at the base of the stand. Next the backing is cut off from the base, so that we are able to view the dolls from all angles. The backing stored with the acrylic cover. Then the spacer is removed from the dolls. It is necessary to cut the plastic ties that attach the back of Ariel's head to the spacer. After the spacer is removed, the dolls are still attached to the doll stand by wires.

 

I just received my second Ariel and Eric Doll set, that I ordered online last Wednesday, October 16, 2013. It is #1145 of 6000. At first look, my new set looks almost perfect, with a Ariel in a better pose, her eyelashes more even, and the collar neater than in my #12 pre-ordered set. It almost seems a shame to debox the dolls, rather leaving them as is, but I need to free them from all the packing material, so they can be posed with other dolls, and when reboxed, be able to be viewed from all angles. Photographed boxed, during deboxed, and fully deboxed using built-in camera flash.

Here is my brand new LE Cinderella doll from the Disney Store. I pre-ordered her online on August 29th 2012 and she was delivered on October 2, 2012. The same day the Cinderella Diamond edition DVD and the 17" Lady Tremaine doll were released. I love her as she is my first disney doll in years and a collector's item at that. My doll is numbered 2,442 of 5,000. :)

Deboxing the Cinderella and Prince Charming Doll Set. The covers have been removed, and the cardboard backing cut open. The ends of various packaging restraints are visible.

 

The Cinderella and Prince Charming Doll Set, the third release in the 2014 Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. I got Cinderella today (Tuesday Oct 7, 2014) at my local Disney Store. There were 15 people entered for 16 dolls. She is #4755 of 6000. Her curly hair is in more of an updo than the curly pony tale of the stock image. But that may be just how it was packaged, and may drop down into a ponytail when I debox her. She has exactly the same head position as the artwork and deboxed stock photo, so no Exorcist head here. Here are some preliminary photos of the set boxed, and then with the covers removed. I will be fully deboxing her in the next day or two.

The Ariel Eric Doll Set, #12 of 6000, in their boxed state. Photographed using built-in camera flash.

 

My pre-ordered Ariel and Eric Doll Set, from the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. It arrived on October 15, 2013, and I was thrilled to see that they are numbered #012 of 6000! It matches the number of the other doll sets in the pre-order, except that Snow White and the Prince is #4508 of 6000. There are some slight scratches on the gold nameplate and on the acrylic cover of the display case, but they are very minor, and don't diminish the look of the set. Ariel's head is posed a bit awkwardly, but I'll see if I can adjust it a bit without undoing any of the shipping restraints. There is also a loose thread hanging from the left sleeve of Ariel's blouse. Otherwise, Ariel and Eric look very beautiful, and in perfect shape. I'm so happy that I have them after failing to get them in the in-store raffle earlier in the day.

 

I'm not going to debox the dolls in this set, but I am going to take photos of it boxed, with the cover sleeve off, and with the clear acrylic cover off, to show off the dolls as much as possible without actually removing them from their factory restraints.

Stancenation Japan G Editon 2nd

Bouchier used a coquettish mermaid figure named Miranda as well as a cheeky boy figure.

Miranda looks positively Frightening, hopefully this was an adult act as I think children would be terrorised by her! lol.

 

Facts about John on the interweb are scarce but I think he was a comedian in his own right without the dummies. I'm guessing 'Bouchier' wasn't his real name either?

  

Seen here on an editon of The Good Old Days show, very popular in Britain in the 1950s/60/70s/80s and having a re-run of some of the programmes today.

 

The show came from the City Varieties Leeds one of the Worlds oldest original Variety (or Vaudeville if you're Amercian) theatres. The audience dressed in period costume and joined in the singing, especially "Down at the Old Bull and Bush" which closed the show. The show was compered by Leonard Sachs, who sat in a pulpit-like structure at the side of the stage. In the course of its run it featured about 2,000 performers. Each show was an hour long. All acts were in the style of late Victorian/Edwardian stage acts.

 

Many famous and high ranking performers / acts graced the stage during its time and it was seen as a good show to be on for professional reasons for the performers.

These included , Morecambe & Wise, Kathy Kirby, Reg Varney, Eartha Kitt, Arthur Askey, Roy Castle, Bruce Forsyth, Beryl Reid, Larry Grayson, Frank Carson, Les Dawson,The Krankies, Mary Ohara, Sue Pollard, John Inman, The Kings Singers, Roy Hudd, Danny La Rue, Bernard Cribbins, Barry Cryer, Moira Anderson and so the list went on.

Deboxing my Belle and the Beast Doll Set. First the illustrated slip cover is slid off the display case, revealing the dolls inside a clear acrylic enclosure. They are secured to the built in doll stands and the cardboard backing and plastic spacers by wires, rubber bands and plastic tabs. Then the clear acrylic cover is lifted off the base. In this case I had considerable difficulty freeing the cover from the base. The tabs under the base wouldn't let go of the cover, no matter what I did, until I turned the box upside down and fiddled with the tabs while I jiggled the cover. In the process Belle's hair got a bit messy, but her hair wasn't that neat to begin with, so i smoothed it a bit before taking photos of the set uncovered.

 

First look at my Belle and the Beast Doll Set, part of the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection. Purchased from my local Disney Store through the raffle process on release day, October 1, 2013. There were 28 doll sets available, and easily three times that many people who entered. I was very lucky in that I was the next to last person to be chosen.
