    I’ll definitely try getting the 7 sister pack once they become available and perhaps rebody them onto mtm bodies. Their faces all look so well sculpted. However, I just don’t understand why Mattel has to give Ariel and Ariel alone the cartoonishly large eyes! Her face sculpt is very pretty but I’m probably going to get her eyes repainted.

    Great vid! ❤ I defo agree against the molded on clothes on dolls, part of the fun, be it for people who play with their dolls, or those who simply unbox them to use for photography/art project etc, is to give us the option to redress them, even if the male dolls got tacky trousers or shorts, i'd take it over molded on clothing. As an Ursula fan, i'm excited to see more imagery on that doll/action figure, but agree that she is quite lackluster, imo the testacles should have been longer and made out of a sorta rubbery plastic for play/creating scenaries of her capturing someone with them, instead she seems to just be a solid ornament with some brushable hair and a torso that rotates, with moveable arms 😔

    Hi The Doll Daddy! Nice to meet you and great video! I'm a male too and I gladly pre-ordered the mermaid version of Ariel! I can't wait to receive her! As I know to use silicone and to sculpt molds, I will make her a silicone tail that I will put above the plastic tail that she has, it will be more realistic! 😀 I definately will also buy the Limited Editon dolls of Ariel and Vanessa from DisneyStore! 😍 I'm patiently waiting when they will come out! 😀 I can't wait for them too! 😍

    Something about Mermaid dolls... I feel like they should just have 100% fabric tails that slide over their legs, even if they're not meant to come off. Maybe it's me thinking with a 90s kid mind with all the mermaid Barbies I had. I feel the same about Ursula too, just make her tentacles fabric, sew the little tubes, and stuff them.

    Also, there's something so eye-roll-worthy about Disney's quaking at everyone under the sea needing to be fully covered up FABRIC. Triton can't be shirtless, Ursula can't show cleavage, Ariel needs a tube top. Disney it's alright..... nipples, body-fat, and cleavage aren't going to corrupt the children.

    A hungry person MEEEE TOOOOO. I really detest dolls that have legs + a cloth mermaid tail “costume” and I was seriously disappointed that when Mattel finally made the mermaid Barbies I spend my childhood wishing they’d make, that none of them had knee joints & many didn’t have hip joints either. How are they going to properly sit on rocks singing & brushing their hair if they can’t bend? (LoL) Even the MGA mermaze dolls don’t have a knee joint and it’s such a glaring oversight in an otherwise nicely designed doll.

    The tail gimmick doll is such a waste of development & production money. The way she’s made refers her useless for any other play except the tail gimmickry, and dollars to donuts that mechanism will break fairly quickly under real play conditions and the doll will just be another hunk of plastic added to a landfill. I’d have much rather seen Mattel put that money to good use by oh, I dunno, making Ursula into an ACTUAL DOLL not a shitty action figure? Putting real pants on Eric? Making the sister set have nicer looking tail flukes? Literally anything else!

    I understand, back in the 90-00s what you would get as "Limited Edition" would just be sold as a playline doll for children. What they produce now doesn't have anything to do with it being for children vs not. It's all about money saving for these companies, so even children are getting short-changed on beautiful dolls.

    I absolutely hate the “it’s for children do it doesn’t need to be good” argument. Like children don’t recognize cheap, poorly designed toys and want better? Because I sure did as a kid. The things I want in dolls as an adult collector are exactly the things I longed for as a child as well.
