Where to get the 16" Animators Collection Anna Doll in MK

We want to avoid HWS, anyone know for sure where you can currently find these dolls? I saw them in Epcot Norway in Dec, but from what I've read on here there is no longer a frozen store in Norway... this is the plastic toddler looking doll. We will be at MK and Epcot for the most part of our trip and maybe AK.

I think your best bet is your local Disney store or Disneystore.com When I got my daughters Anna doll, there were a lot of them at the Disney store. I just saw the Kristoff animator doll on line. When I was @ WDW in April, Frozen merchandise was very hard to come by. The only thing I saw in Epcot was some dresses but all in size xxs. We were hoping that when we were there for Easter we would be able to pick something up, but couldn't find anything. I've had much better luck at my local store and on line.

Well local stores don't carry the same stuff they sell in the park and she wants to buy it there as a memory. She can always get a Mickey but this would be very cool to get. I've heard there is way more stock sense July and read threads in which people say Oaken's in HWS has lots but I don't want to go to HWS. Glad to hear Epcot still carries frozen stuff!

Sir Mickey's had some Frozen things in June, but they sold out pretty quickly. We went in one day in the morning and I debated getting something, and it was gone that afternoon. I don't know if it still sells out that quickly or not, or if it's as available there since Oaken's opened in HS. If you can't find them in DW, the Disney Store does sell the Animator's Dolls, but the Frozen ones sell out pretty quickly.

Thank you, super helpful!

This used to be true, but in the last couple of years the parks have had a lot of the exact same stuff they carry in the Disney Store. In fact we have been disappointed because while there is some stuff that is park specific, there is a ton of the stuff which is the exact same stuff you can get at home unlike it use to be when MOST of the stuff was park specific. DD and I have had debates our last few trips over her wanting to buy stuff and bring it home that we can get locally. In fact, there have been times that I made her a promise she could go get a certain item when we got home because I didn't want to try to pack it or cart it home on the plane, and we have done that.

The Anna doll is definitely the same one they carry at the Disney store. She saw it and the matching Elsa doll at our local Disney store when she was there with someone when they briefly had it in stock a month or two ago, but when we went back to get one of them it was gone. I think it is still going in and out of stock at the Disney parks too. We were at DL/CA three weeks ago, and they put them out the first day we were there. DD bought one because we had been unable to get one at home, and the CM at the register advised us that we were lucky because they were selling out almost immediately when they put them on the shelves. We were there for 5 days. The next morning we went through that store and they had 1 left. By the time we left the park that day it was gone, and we never saw that Anna doll anywhere else at DL/CA for the rest of our trip.

If you find it at your local Disney store or online, I would go ahead and grab it because it is still hit and miss as to whether you can find them in the parks. DD wanted the Elsa doll to go with Anna (which is why we kept looking in the stores) and we never found it anywhere during our 5 day DL/CA trip.

It seems that they have a bit more stuff at WDW than they had before. If you are looking in MK, the place to check is Sir Mickey's near the castle. If you are in Epcot, they still have a room in Norway stocked with some Frozen stuff. They also had some Frozen merchandise in Mouse Gears. They didn't have a ton at Epcot, but the last time I was in Norway was in June. I don't remember much at AK, but I didn't visit many shops there either. At DHS, Oaken's seemed to have quite a bit (they had dresses in stock on Friday) and they had some carts throughout DHS with Frozen merchandise.

We don't have a Disney Store and its just something we want to do in person. If we don't see it there we won't get it. I don't have kids who "have to have" anything I just would like her to get it there. If they are sold out she will understand and pick out a minnie mouse or something, but hopefully we can find one while there and it will be an adventure to find it I just wanted to do research so I knew ahead of time where to always check each day we are there or if we happen to pass those stores/spots that I need to check.
