| So pretty! |
This set of all eleven Disney princesses is really awesome! Each doll comes with its own outfit and shoes and has moveable arms and legs as well as a head that swivels. The outfits are shiny and the glitter comes off a little at first, but this photo was taken after a month of use and the sparkle and designs are definitely still present.
I love how the doll heads are all different so that they really look like their movie characters! They all have different eyes, noses, mouths, and face shapes--whoever sculpted them clearly worked hard!
Most of the hairstyles have the hair down which makes it hold up pretty well during play, however Tiana's updo is looking like it's going to have to have some rehab soon to get rid of all those flyaways.
Bonus: the back of the box has some beautiful art and inspirational sayings about each princess. I cut it out and put it in my four year old's room--she loves it and I think I saved $20 by not having to buy a Disney princess poster.
Critiques:
1. The dolls are all different sizes. This is great because they were all different heights and shapes in their movies (just like real women!), but the downside is that they can't switch clothes (just like real women!). This means that you either have to spend around $10 to get the exact same doll in a different outfit or you have to spend $40-60 to get different clothes for your doll. This is a bummer because everyone knows that part of the fun of playing with dolls is dressing them up!

| No switching wardrobes! |
2. The doll shoes are all slippers, and unlike Barbie the shoes are a little big so that they are easy to remove. The result is that their shoes will not stay on! Some of the dolls have clear little rubber bands holding their shoes on, but the others are long gone after a month of play.

Bottom line: These dolls are played with by my four year-old daily, therefore they are highly recommended.
