I'll tell you this, Disney dropped a big bombshell with this release. It took me two hours to get checked out, I kept pressing the check out button, and finally the website let me check out. I honestly feel so bad for other people who have received the doll damaged. Disney better fix this issue when they release Cinderella, Mary Poppins and Pocahontas next year.
Do you think she’ll go up in value like her 30th anniversary counter part? I’ve noticed every heirloom Ariel doll that Disney has released is close to if not $1000 dollars or more :/
I think more than the checkout this release is just truly a slap in the face with the glued ribbons and minimal detail, if they were going to do something that egregious she should have been 90-100 dollars because even a lot of PLAYLINE habe sewn ribbon detailing, with the rising price point they need to get this quality in check,, it makes me want to not buy any releases at all, and I haven’t since kida for a reason,, I know its an absurd reaction to just ribbons but honestly sucks this is a doll I have been so excited for and shes an absolutely gorgeous doll,, just not up to what I expect from a limited edition doll.
Omg I adore and love this doll, really Mario she didn't sell out as fast as past Ariel dolls have , and she came back into stock 4 times , so even with the 2 limit if people wanted her they had chances upon chances to get her. I do think the 2 limit is good , because it gives fans the chance to have one to display in and out of box. I do think this variant is so much more better then the D23 doll. The D23 one looked like a bar maid with the style of dress they gave her. I loath the white puffy top of her dress of the D23 doll it looks like she is a German Beer maid. This variant looks so much more movie accurate. I think your doll has hair issues , because mine is full and even with the product in it looks amazing so maybe you just received doll that had hair issues.I love the gems used as they pop against the blue fabric. The shoes are stunning on this doll. I think this is one of the best Ariel 17 inch dolls released from Disney Store.
D23 Ariel - more elegant, more beautiful, much better hair than the new Ariel. You can say whatever you want that your Ariel has thick hair, but you haven't uploaded a single piece of evidence, on the Disney website your Ariel doll is in a box and you haven't opened it. I saw your review there exactly the same about the barmaid Ariel d23 from Germany. You didn't open the doll, and if you did, no one will believe you in words that your new Ariel has exactly the same thick hair as D23.
It wouldn’t surprise me if GR Ariel has less hair than the D23 version. I remember seeing pictures/reviews of the 65th Aurora LE doll and that doll had a serious lack of hair too, so maybe it’s another weird cost cutting thing? It’s ridiculous tho, the D23 is special because you can’t see the hair plugs? 🙄Both Ariels are beautiful to look at, but are definitely lacking in some areas.
Welcome Back. She look so beautiful.
I love her face makeup and her dress. Quality is so good with fine details
Finally ! I’m waiting for your review all week. 😊
Me too😂😂😂

She’s super gorgeous 🧜♀️ I would have bought her if I had more space but I’m happy you have both versions.
So sad I missed out!! 😭😭
...Anyways, as a 17 year old male doll collector who loves Ariel, you are so inspiring!🙂
Great review. General release stole the show on this one.
I love both versions of our favorite mermaid🩵🛶💙
I've been waiting for this video. I'm getting mine for Christmas 🎄 (2024) I can't wait 😊
Edit: In the Uk/EU it was one per person

Are d23 dolls hard to get or how to get? Love the video!
Was it also released at the parks!?
@@yesseniaramirez6766 I believe Disneyland California had a few in stock
Do you happen to know if we get the key with the doll on the US store, or do we have to buy it separately?
@@aquachicken9297 the key is usually sold separately for the USA but it hasn’t shown up or been announced yet
