Little 5-year-old me would've gone absolutely nuts seeing all of those mermaid dolls! They look BEAUTIFUL!!! (Seriously - why couldn't they have been that cool back in the early 2000s?! xD)
You are 💯% right! The “ sister set” Ariel is the best. I wish they had done a REALLY cool “ deluxe” doll that really was deluxe?! Disappointing. What a big missed opportunity for collectors and fans of the movie! What were they thinking?? 🤷♂️🧜♀️
Thank you so much for all the amazing details in your video! I loved seeing the articulation on Tinkerbell's body and the Deluxe Ariel body - it was good to know both of the dolls' feet are not articulated.
If you take a very fine nail buffing sponge and go over the legs, it will get rid of the shine and make them matte finish. I actually do it over the entire bodies lightly to give them a matte finish. Then they have more of a silkstone or porcelain look and makes them look more expensive.
Excellent review of the new dolls, I was excited to see the Tinker Bell doll. I ordered the deluxe Ariel but I will probably return her, not impressed at all. I love the Disney version and it's cheaper so I will get that one.
I pre-ordered the Tinkerbell doll on Amazon and she was delayed. She ended up arriving on the day my daughter lost a tooth, so I used her as a tooth fairy gift. It was perfect. Unfortunately, my kids and I did not enjoy the movie though.
I really want to want the deluxe Ariel doll but the open tail and scrunched pink mesh really killed it for me. I also don't like rooted lashes so thank you for making the point about the DS one costing less while having more.
The way these dolls are set up ....they eventually get on sale and my butt will definitely wait for them. They sell out now but come back. Look at the MGA mermaze mermaids dolls. Some of them are sold for 14 dollars now and I purchased them for $30 something dollars.
I wish the deluxe had super long hair I thinking of getting deluxe instead of basic, just for the stand. I hope ali express or somewhere will sell the stands
I have the 3 pack on preorder so I’m glad I didn’t buy budget Ariel cause I really want Ursula buy also King Triton so I’m glad I kept impulse in check this time. I really want the full sisters pack but I’m gonna wait for a sale, the mini dolls I have some funkos ordered too the collectors one do you think later she’ll be on sale? Cause yea the stand is what I want actually I wish they’d msss produce stands like this I got SO many dolls I could use these for
I didn't buy basic Ariel, neither Ursula... I knew they would come in a set with Triton, one designer told me few months ago 😅 Neither I got 3 sister pack... I waited 7 pack sisters so I got them all in one take, and now I only have to buy this 3 pack to complete whole family ❤ No duplicates for me haha However, it doesn't mean I approve what Mattel did. Instead of selling 3 random sisters & 7 pack, they should have sold sisters as: 2 + 2 + 2 + Ariel & Triton... Or 3 + 3 + that set above (Ariel, Ursula & Triton) But Mattel just repeats techinque they are using on Barbie Extra 5 pack dolls apparently
I don’t really understand why bc she’s a human why they didn’t js give her a Barbie body and the smaller Barbie feet and a Barbie proportioned body for Ariel
3:09 why it is a pity that triton is exclusive to this package? instead of buying the basic ariel and this package, you buy only the package, because it is the same ariel as the individual one, the same ursula as the individual one and it also comes with triton.
OmgHow ugly are the mermaid tails of those dolls! I literally don't like anything about that movie but I said maybe they'll put out a great wardrobe...and no! haha and now that I see the quality of these Mattel and Disney dolls they still don't make a line with a cute design! well I think they did the best they could because that tail in the movie is horrible, I was thinking of using one for my classic Ariel but thanks to your video you helped me not to lose my money I think that merman is not that bad and perhaps articulated would have been much better many Youbers have made reviews and they think the same as you, the designs are really not pretty at all and they choose the one in the set with Úrsula and Tritón.
