2016 Designer Fairytale Collection Two Revealed

The extremely long awaited reveal of the Disney Designer Fairytale Collection Heroes vs. Villains Set Two happened this week, with four set this year instead of five. Last year we saw Snow White and The Witch, Elsa and Hans, Ariel and Ursula, Rapunzel and Mother Gothel and for the first time ever Peter Pan and Captain Hook. This year, as rumored, we have Belle and Gaston, Cinderella and Lady Tremaine, Aurora and Maleficent, and another first with Alice and The Queen of Hearts. Lets take a close look at the details for this collection...

2015 Designer Fairytale Collection Revealed

At long last there has been a full reveal for the 2015 Designer Fairytale Collection dolls. The theme this year is Heroes and Villains, however, it is still called the Fairytale Collection. There are another five sets of couples, some which have not been seen in doll form or in the Designer line before. Take a look...

dollMAGEDDON Strikes Back

It was announced on Steve Thompson's Tumblr page that he will be attending the 2013 D23 Convention. The convention is held every other year and is packed full of Disney this and Disney that - park announcements, guest stars, panels, and upcoming merchandise. Thompson, the evil genius behind the Disney Designer Collection, stated:

"While it is still top secret what we have in store, I will again be attending this coming August. As soon as I can let you know more I will post it here on my Tumblr page first."

The post was accompanied by photos from the 2011 D23 Convention, in which his Designer Princess dolls caused mass hysteria, panic attacks and temporary loss of bladder control. Once the dolls made their way for sale on the Disney Store website months later, what occurred in the following weeks made history as dollMAGEDDON. A year later, 2012 offered up some of Disney's most memorable female Villains for the Designer line, and Disney tried to make amends for the previous year by producing a higher edition size of dolls - therefore eliminating a dollMAGEDDON repeat. While this new information doesn't confirm or deny a third Designer Collection, we are left knowing that something IS in store for this year.

Disney Designer Villains Set Preorder

Now up for pre-order is the full set of six Disney Designer Villains Dolls. So far there are no glitches or weird code messages popping up - but with the full set selling for a whopping $477, I don't think there are crowds of people lining up to buy this. When the individual dolls are released September 10th in stores and September 11th online, that might be a different story, however the higher edition sizes make it more promising that there will not be a website collapse again. There are also shirts and other items planned to be released. Are we one year away to a possible Designer Jessica Rabbit? I suppose the success of the Villains could be a deciding factor. *UPDATE* The Designer Villains Doll Set is SOLD OUT. The set sold out some time around 4:30 am eastern time.

Disney Villains Designer Collection - dollMAGEDDON Part 2

The sky - she darkens. The wind grows angry

The end is nigh

Either that or it's just dollMAGEDDON - PART 2 !

Okay, so we didn't get Jessica Rabbit this year - but, I was at least right that Disney was not going to pass up the opportunity for another go at the Designer Collection line, even after last years near collapse of their website due to the Princess series released. Take a good, long look at the Cruella doll, and tell me they are not even considering making a Jessica Designer doll.
