So...what's up with Disney princesses?

[lonestar]

[kirksnosehair]

shit, I can't unread that

[bosk1]

Yeah, that's a visual I didn't need.

[TempusVox]

Holy crap! The likeness is stunning!

[ariich]

I am trying to find a Mulan doll for my daughter. 

Uh-huh, sure.

You can't pull the wool over our eyes that easily, bosky.

I still find it weird how Alice in Wonderland is sometimes rolled into the Disney Princess range. It's quite rare, but some of the official artworks have her bundled in with the actual princesses.

[King Postwhore]

Disney is kind of notorious for this with their products.  For years my wife collected the little porcelain Disney figurines.  She had them all.  Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Dumbo, Mickey, Minnie, Donald Duck, et al.  She made it all the way up to The Little Mermaid (I think  ) and then all of a sudden there were NO figurines at ANY of the brick and mortar Disney Stores.      Of course, this happened the year I was going to get her a new one, and I didn't have a backup plan.  I'm such a loser.      F'n Walt Disney...

If they are the official one that's big money.  My friend had 4 cabinets worth of a tone of different movies and I can't believe the price of one.

She might not be a princess now, but when she gets to the 8th Square she'll be a Queen.   





Oh, and need I remind everyone that since Disney bought out Lucasfilm,  LEIA is now technically a Disney Princess too?   

[Prog Snob]

Yeah, that's a visual I didn't need.

Liar

Oh hush If she doesn't become a Princess in her film, then she shouldn't be classed as a Princess in the franchise!

[jingle.boy]

I hope I would have had the presence of mind to hold the dress up against myself, wiggle my hips, and wink at her, or something like that.

I know what I'm fapping to tonight!

Yeah, that's a visual I didn't need.

Correction.  NOW, I know what I'm fapping to tonight.

[Prog Snob]

Alice is beyond princess status.  She's in her own league. If any of the so - called princesses fell down a hole they'd be whining like school girls with a skinned knee. "Oh I can't handle the pressure.  I just broke a nail and there are scratches on my crown.  And for what is this creepy cat smiling at me.  I want to go home. "

[bosk1]

Most of them might.  But both Mulan and Merida are pretty hardcore.  I think either of them would quickly find a weapon of choice and take it to anyone who even implied a beheading.

I've never seen either of those so you could be right.  Personally, I am not the biggest Disney fan so I've only seen the older movies like Snow White, Fantasia, etc.  Mickey Mouse gets on my fuckin nerves.  He is all that is wrong with this world.   Even my daughter is a Donald fan.

Damn, I was scrolling up when reading this so wasn't sure who posted it. Would have been epic if it had been lonestar.

I think Belle would do pretty well if she was thrown into Wonderland, the poor lass never gets enough credit.

Really any of the more recent princesses. It's only the old time ones that seem very passive and in need of rescue.

It's too much for her. She's more likely to read a book than bother with any adventure. Maybe if her beast came along with her, she'd do alright.

Or stick her Dad at the other end of Wonderland.

Or have Gaston slobbering after her. That would get her going.

I think the Red Queen would make her cry.

That Brave chic is my favorite....she'd probably just shoot the Cheshire Cat on site.

That is Merida who bosk1 was mentioning earlier in reference to the dress I was looking at for my granddaughter.     Rookies

Completely agreed. After all, we're talking about the lady who tried to take on a pack of wolves on her own with just a wooden stick and
sassed out an incredibly pissed off chimera in her film. Not to mention the fact that Belle chose to put herself in the situation that she was in, in order to save her father's life. Belle was a helluva lot more courageous and strong-willed than the vast majority of Disney Princesses.

As a kid growing up in the 90's, I had far more respect for Belle than I did most of the other Disney Princesses. Mulan might have been the one with a sword, but Belle definitely had the spirit.

[Neon]

Alice is my absolute favorite character, literary, Disney or otherwise, but to be fair, she DID cry herself a river after falling down the rabbit hole.  But all in all she handled her shit pretty well considering she was 7 in the first story.

If she gets to 8th Avenue, she'll certainly be mistaken for a queen.

Yup...my mind was blown when I realized that about Leia too.  And Alice on 8th Ave LMAO

Anna and Elsa better get Disney Princess status

RE: the OP, yeah Bosk, Disney only seems to carry lots of stuff that sells well. While it is a mixed bag sometimes, with surprises here and there of what's available (at parks), generally the same franchises are overpopulated. Case in point, my favorite movie ever, WallE, has jack for anything really substantial, and basically has been that way since it came out.

The unfortunate thing is Cinderella, Snow White, Cars, Sleeping Beauty, Toy Story and so on dominate their merchandise, licensed and official.

[bosk1]

Wow, this thread is a lot older than I remembered.    Anyhow, not princess-related, strictly speaking, but pretty darned close, so I figured I would post it here.  Pretty interesting interview with one of the original Disney "mermaids" from 1959:  https://www.mouseplanet.com/9939/The_Disneyland_1959_Mermaid_Tale_of_Susan

[MetalJunkie]

Yeah, that's a visual I didn't need.

But you didn't know you wanted.
