Sofia the First Doll Woes

[cab0ad]

I want to get a Sofia dress for my DD! Do you think they will release them larger than 5/6? No way we can fit into that!

After finally getting our Sofia doll on Wednesday I set out on a mission today to find the dress. I contacted Disney through Facebook and they gave me an email address for a personal shopper. The Personal shopper first store was a bust but the second one had th 5/6 size I needed. I just have to find the necklace and tiara by middle of March.

My daughter would love it in a 7/8.

I only read the first page of this thread but I went to a outlet mall the other day and they had a Disney store and it had the Sophia doll. My daughter bought the rabbit.

While they might make it in a 7/8 next time, it is not in the 7/8 in this current dress. And, the problem is, we hardly get ANY 5/6s either. We will get 12 18/24 mo, 12 2/3s, 6 size 4, and maybe 2 5/6s. (something like that, I could be off, but only very few 5/6s, you get the point) It is not that the 5/6s are selling 4X more than the smaller ones, it is that we hardly get any to begin with.

The product is coming, a trickle right now, but will increase in the next 3-4 weeks, they tell us. Your best bet is to call on your local stores shipment day, at store opening. And watch the online site too, of course.

I did not realize how high demand Sophia items are! We got the doll from the Disney Store before it aired....and I just stumbled upon the dress and amulet online a few weeks ago. I am glad I grabbed them when I did!

That was very interesting to read! I've learned that as my girls get bigger to buy their things right away when we see things because 5/6 and 7/8 are so hard to find at times!

Anyone still needing a doll our store in Lexington KY has them fully stocked. They're $14.50 plus shipping.

They were put out in several local stores today, the Sofia dolls I mean.

Op... I got a doll for you a few minutes ago.... If you still need let md know right away. It was $14.50

Because of all the posts, I just picked up 2 dolls. THe store was fully stocked. I did not look for the dress but, they had the dolls, nightgowns, PJ's, a plastic set of some sort....

One doll is for OP if she still needs...second is for whomever comments first. It was $14.50. I could probably ship from work for 2 or 3 bucks (maybe less as we get a corp rate).

Don't need the doll but I wanted to say that you are very sweet to think of the OP and the lucky person who gets the other doll.

OP here! This is so kind of you, but another diser is sending one my way. So, hopefully some other people who are looking can take advantage of your kindness! Edited to add: If another diser doesn't step up, let me know and I'll buy one off of you for my god daughter!
Thanks again for thinking of me!

We are not into Sofia over here but I just wanted to say how heartwarming it is to see so many people pull together and keep a look out to help others. It's nice to know there are still good people in the world that are not looking to make a quick buck!

DIS = MAGIC!

I just saw the Sofia doll that Mattel is making, and she is sooo cute! I immediately thought of this thread, and thought I'd share the link.
