My first christmas present, got her at 9.02am just after the 9.00am release. isn't she gorgeous ?

Would love to have the whole set, but as I really only collect Maleficent items, I'm happy with her plus have just put in a Christmas request list for the rest of the new Villains items that have gone on sale this morning. :rolleyes1

I love her :woohoo:! Will she have pride of place in your collection now Jill?
 
She will have pride of place, beautiful isn't she :thumbsup2

She's the first release from the new Villains collection, released worldwide instore yesterday, but none of the stores in South West of the UK were given any stocks, as I found out yesterday when I rang my 2 nearest stores, so everything stopped in work this morning at 9.00 am when the online store released them.

Here's the dolls collection

I think they're beautiful, I know Disney have come if for a bit of stick for setting a bad example by making Ursula and Queen of Hearts skinny, but at £50 a doll, they're not made for children to play with, they're collectors items, personally I think the media overplayed it.

and check out the new Villains items, I love the Tshirt, totebag, makeup and the purse, in fact everything (my niece has already bought me the shopping bag!).

Carrie - When I get her I'll post up a picture of my Maleficent "shrine", OH's words not mine. lol
 

Wow she is fantastic. Would love to see the shrine too!

Wouldn't mind Mother Gothel myself. I think she is one of the funniest characters Disney has made. We do the whole Love you, love you more, I love you most thing before bed and DS always shouts Evil mudder sez dat (he has loads of pigeon english as his speech was slow and his pronunciation is so cute, he sounds half Irish, half Jamican!).
 
That is seriously nice, Jill :thumbsup2 looking forward to seeing your 'shrine' too. :goodvibes
 
I too loved these when I got the pre release email a while back. You could buy all of them for £300! :crazy2:

They are gorgeous. Maleficent was one of my faves. I love Alice in Wonderland but really wasn't keen on the Queen (although I can see why they have modelled her as they have). I also wasn't sure about Mother Gothel but then they aren't going to appeal to everyone :).

None for me though I'm afraid - no where to put them, DH wouldn't allow a Disney 'shrine' in our house! :sad: Although I have managed the odd Disney touch around the place :thumbsup2.

Jill - I too would LOVE to see your collection. Maleficent is something special :goodvibes.

PS - Have put a few bits of the new merchandise on my Christmas list. Anyone know if they are available in store? (they had nothing last weekend at our local store but then I don't think they had been released then). It's a real shame that they don't offer online shareholder discount as a lot of the really nice stuff is online only! :(

Oh no why did I look I want it all now! Lol I love cruella! I did see the t shirts bags and purses in the mall at Cribbs causeway. Where in the south west are you? X
 
Thanks Leanne - I'll take a look next time I'm at the 'local' store and with luck I'll buy my own Christmas presents with discount :lmao: (it's a fair drive so I don't go that often!).

My daughter is 15 and Rapunzel is her favourite Disney movie. I am a single mum so its just me and my two teens and as such we are really really close. My daughter & I use the Mother Gothel quote all the time too. Also if I ever have to pull rank I burst into song "Mother Knows Best".:rotfl2
 
Would love to see "The Shrine" when you get her Jill :goodvibes

Shame that the French Disneystore on line aren't carrying half as many items as the UK one as I like the look of the nail varnishes - my guilty pleasure :blush:
 
Carrie - I was in our local DS today and they had a lot of the Villains merchandise in (wasn't there last weekend). I had to buy my own Christmas presents from the range for DH to give me, as I have the shareholders card and apparently the stuff is flying out, so I didn't want to wait and miss out! ;)

So, with a bit of luck you might find the merchandise in the new WOD in the next week or so maybe? :) Can tell you the nail varnishes look amazing (and the CMs told me that they have them and they are so glossy and thick that you don't even need a second coat!). I didn't get them as the makeup bag, pjs and sweatshirt had already fallen into my basket :rotfl2:.

Saw Maleficent in the flesh - she is gorgeous, so tempted but I don't have anywhere to put her. She is more like a figurine than a doll - just beautiful and such detail :lovestruc.

I can always dream pixiedust:

The Fr site has 9 items on sale, the UK site has 27 :confused3 3 times as many :rolleyes2

I'm off tomorrow so I'll ask someone :goodvibes
 
Fingers crossed for you :goodvibes.

Enjoy your day tomorrow - I wish it were that easy for us to get there :rotfl2:.

PS - a bit OT but did you manage to find anything out re the Dreams VIP meals continuing beyond October? I know you kindly said you would ask for us :thumbsup2.
 
Thanks you so much for asking for us - I think I did read that but it was post holiday haze and I must have not digested it!! :lmao:

Same old DLRP then, no one really knows on a day to day basis half the time! :rotfl2:
