This doll was briefly at the Disney Store's display for pre-sale and I just could not take my eyes of her. I have pre ordered one for my daughter and one as an ivestment as I follow the prices of the thre other dolls in the collection that I got for my child and it is simply jaw dropping experience. The Snow White Limited Edition doll was sold for 99.00 USD and now, bearly a year later it sells for 1500 to 3000 USD depending on the market place. It is just unbelievable how crazy popular this series is.
Untill I saw the first doll in person I could only marvel over the beutiful pictures but when I got our first doll via mail and opened it it was just pure magic.
Each and every doll is just plain gorgeous. The level of details is undescribable. There are nice dolls out there, there are really nice dolls out there and there is this collection that is just beyond and above them all.
First of all the doll is very big. The size allows the eye to get a full grasp of all fine details as it is just perfectly sized as opposed to small collectible dolls. It sands at it's impressive 17 inches =43.18 cm!!!! tall. It is hard to imagagine that 17" might make such a perfect scale for the doll but to give you an idea, it is just a mere inch shorter then full size large doll like American Girl or Disney Princess and Me doll.. it is one inch taller then Disney Toddler Princess dolls.. it is HUUUUUGE.
When you get your doll and you finally get the box to open you can't help but marvel how big is the box and you wonder if it is really as big as the doll or did it come in some oversized box.
The case is most likely that it is the size of the doll more less.. as it takes to be only slightly smaller then the display box it comes in. The box is just as perfect. With amazing clear windows on all sidzes except the back it can be displayed just in the box as it came and makes for
fabulous display. Considring the porportion at this size, perfect princess shape it is just perfect!
I can't imagine more ideal beauty image of the princess.
Each princess has it's own character and each doll conveys it beautifully in amazing details. The dresses are dreamy.. beyond dreamy..
The dolls come with cerficiate of authenticity and individual number as the whole 5000 of them has the individual number from one to 5000, the number can't be revealed untill you open the doll and check the cerficate that is sealed in the box under the doll so don't panic, if you get the doll and nothing is in the box.. like I did.. I thought that the certificat will come in some
sort of separate envelope included in the box.. no the certificate is sealed IN the DOLL box,
there is sort of like double floor situation. The doll is in a box and the box has a double floor and in that tinny space there is flat booklet of a sort and this is the cerfificate. It is sealed in the box with the doll.
I look at our three dolls that we have so far: Snow White, Belle and Tiana and i would have a problem to say which one is more beautiful as they represent the same perfection and classic beauty, of coruse it is a matter of personal taste but as far as the craftsmanship and design they are just equally superb therefore I am sure they will be soon selling at the same level as each doll was released only in such a small amount of 5000 of them WORLDWIDE!!!
I know.. it is really just few.. just take 50 states.. and you got only 100 happy girls who own any of those dolls per state?... and if it was even that.. becaucse this release was good for
all continents so we got probably only like 1/4 at the very BEST! so that would make 25 dolls per state! of course it is not a matter of geography.. it is just rounding up and averaging.. as I know my geography ha ha ha..
and now I know quite few people who bought this doll to take aborad and either give it as a gift or sell as in UK it sells for 3000 BP and this is beyond wild dream..
That leaves even less in US.. and not to count all those who I saw sold on ebay to other countries.. that leaves even less..
So I would gestimate that there might be more less some 500 dolls in the USA alone rather then the whole 5000 they were released at and that is probably the reason they are so expensive and so popular. They are beyond unique.
I keep looking at this Rapuznel doll's picture and can't help but feel sorry that the picture has no capacity of reflect full beauty and detail of it. When I stood in front of it at the store I was just so ready to take it home, unfortuantley they would not sell the display model for pre sale..
It is just amazing, the details of the face, the details of the finishes of the leaces..
the fabrics.. oh..
As a amateur doll collector I saw so many gorgeous dolls but again, nothing like it.
The dolls from this series are just beoyond any others and I know it is perfect investment.
It is enough to check Ebay and see how the Snow White is doing , the first from the collection and one can be sure that this is a good buy.
Best wishes.
