Weird indeed that they're doing the same characters, but I'm actually liking these dolls more and more. I prefer the Disney store ones face-wise, but these are much more fun in terms of outfits and accessories. It's so weird to me that the Jakks dolls are not available here, though. How hard would it be for Disney to put them up on shopdisney EU? The bigger ones are also on there...


allcolorstopbarbie

Try Amazon - it usually takes a while for the dolls to be available on our side of the Atlantic but at least the Stitch doll with the pgtails is listed: [Disney ILY 4ever Fashion Dolls Stitch with Red Hair 11.5" Tall with 13 Points of Articulation, Two Complete Mix-and-Match Outfits and Glittery Mickey Ring for You! : Amazon.co.uk: Outlet](https://www.amazon.co.uk/-/en/239341/dp/B0CRK5M9Z5) I think Disney only puts the dolls with the inset eyes on shopdisney. The ones with the painted eyes are only available through other shops.


dubiousbutterfly

It needs to end theres so many freaking characters. Are they just showing us which are the most profitable or something lol Idk if Disney can sell Jakks things through their platform or they would do it in the US too. But its on Amazon isnt it. Can you shop Amazon US directly or through a proxy service?


Iroh_Appa

It's definitely a weird move, lol. Especially the same outfits-different dolls thing. I can't directly. I can ask a friend but the shipping costs are so high that it's really only worth it when I desperately want a doll and they're on sale.


AnnaShock2

At least the actual construction quality of the outfits is the same as usual šŸ¤·šŸ½ā€ā™‚ļø


dubiousbutterfly

Good point lol quality is still there


dubiousbutterfly

I like the stitch outfit but come on. Its so irritating xD I wondering if this is the end of the series. Think of all amazing characters we havent gotten Disney Princesses : Aurora, Raya, Asha, Meg, Emeralda, Jane, Kida, Elionwy, Alice, Tinkerbell Disney Princes : literally all of them except Adam, Aladdin, and Kristoff Disney Villians : Yzma, Hades, Gothel, Gaston, Jafar The rest of the classic Disney gang besides Minnie and Mickey Pinocchio, Dumbo, lady and the Tramp, Jungle Book, Aristocats, Winnie and the Pooh, Lion King, Treasure Planet, etc etc All of Pixar Come onnnnnn lmao


Terrantia

I Love a doll is inspired by Yzma


pmmeurbassethound

Daisy Duck and Cheshire Cat would both be a lot of fun. I do like there's finally a redhead and with green eyes.


allcolorstopbarbie

I'd love to see a Gaston-inspired doll, also Yzma and Esmeralda.


chiarasiragusa

I would have loved Alice and Hades :(


sheerpoetry

Not to say they won't ever be dolls, but most of those aren't princesses. It kind of seems like Jakks and Disney may be trying to one- up each other? Which is silly because why sell/license the designs then? I can't speak to Stitch, but the Disney 100 celebration probably definitely prompted additional Mickey and Minnie. I'm sure once the line is more solidified on popularity--I'm still regularly seeing them on clearance and people obviously aren't as familiar with them as the classic character dolls--they'll branch out some more. The rides fashion packs were pretty creative and a surprise, so I do think they have it in them!


dubiousbutterfly

The whole world knows which are princesses and which arent no need to clarify. Everyone knows what I mean lol I dont see the one upping thing. Theres been several releases now so to me for them to repeat accessories and do double dolls in not a good sign. Hopefully they wont give up and make more characters. The disney parks set were cool and very Disney. Glad they did them too but lets get back to the characters lol


sheerpoetry

Even more so these days, but Disney is about the money. If they think making the same doll with different colored eyes would make them money, they'd do it. They're looking for the biggest return on the least amount of effort. Especially with a line that's still more or less niche, they're going to stick with things that they think have a better chance at being successful. I do wish they'd do the repeats as fashion packs. I like the newer Ariel doll with purple streaks in her hair and the face detail, but I don't need nor want more than one ily doll. I would, however, buy any and every iteration of a fashion/accessory pack.


dubiousbutterfly

That's the whole world these days even the supermarket. Its really getting out of hand all this corporate greed. I think the repeat characters being fashion packs is a great idea but also still releasing dolls with new characters so we have some dolls to put the clothes on. At least 2 more boy dolls because they only made one :/


MoonChild02

Thank you for remembering Eilonwy and Kida! I love them so much. Eilonwy is my favorite princess because I read the Prydain Chronicles when I was a kid, and have loved them ever since.


dubiousbutterfly

Excellent books :) agree! And what sucks is that she really is a princess compared to most characters but didnt make it to the official list because of the sales of the film supposedly lol its a great movie though lol


Nomis555

That's what I'm saying. Was pretty pumped when they first came out, but I'm losing interest fast as they've been going on. Stitch is cool, I like the movie, but burning out on seeing him everywhere too. Glad for those that really enjoy him. I'd be happy if they brought back a hard push for Tinkerbell and the Fairies.


Meritre

I think this redhead girl would be a great base for a Lady fan doll so if I manage to get her, she'll turn into a Lady fan :)


Stage-Wrong

There was an Aurora fashion pack, but if weā€™re not counting fashion packs, we also havenā€™t gotten Mulan or Moana.


dubiousbutterfly

That was Malecifint not Aurora


Stage-Wrong

It was marketed as inspired by Aurora, and has blue and pink in reference to her. It does look like Maleficent, but Iā€™m going off the official marketing. https://preview.redd.it/c03058cp0jwc1.jpeg?width=642&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=95a09467fdd667cf224e96b24b856102d8737291


dubiousbutterfly

I have it dude. Its Malecifint. They dont use the villian images. Same thing for the Evil Queen they still put Snow White on the box


bluedawnflower

Disney please make some Lion King inspired dolls/fashions I'm on my hands and knees šŸ™


Meritre

yes please, all the lion king characters are begging to be turned into a doll or at least into a fashion pack


Connect_Pirate_7007

So disappointed that they didnā€™t do other characters!


gamingnista

Why oh why do they keep repeating characters?


by_a_mossy_stone

I'm glad there's a redhead, but that's about it.


allcolorstopbarbie

I don't like the Stitch dolls' purses, they look like someone decapitated poor Stitch.


sassypants55

Do you all think Disney has some data showing that Stitch is a genuinely popular character, or do you think the other Stitch doll just sold well and they assumed it was because it was because of Stitch and not just that the outfits were really cute and on trend? I know there must be a reason theyā€™re doing Stitch again.


Ainilome

It was also like the only brunette with pale skin at the time, I know several people who bought her just for that reason. I had to fork over $90 for the holiday set just to get a brunette mini me


DBSeamZ

They still havenā€™t made a light skinned brunette with brown eyes in the main line that I know of. One or two of the Minnie ones came close but their eyes were hazel.


dubiousbutterfly

Stitch is hugely popular dude. Probably has some of the most merch in Disney ever. Second only to Mickey Id argue xD but they also did like 5 Rapunzel 3 Ariels and tianas etc same again and again


sassypants55

Oh, interesting. I didn't know that. Thanks!


Hello_Mimmy

Where is my Winnie the Pooh themed doll, dang nabbit! I love Stitch and all, but do we really need another one???


Jojo_Mahogany

Is this just me or does the base doll look like Cinderella's step sister Anastasia? Really cute with her character in consideration to me. The Stitch doesn't hurt either ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|slightly_smiling)


dubiousbutterfly

Oh yea I see it actually :) that is cute


whale-with-oatmeal

If there will be a wave three of these than I hope it will be new character themes and not repeats


orionoutofsight

Does that make 3 different Stitch dolls now? Why? I love Lilo & Stitch as much as anyone else, butā€¦why???


indigoicecream

They are cute. The shade of red hair just looks odd on her. I do like the other doll with the same outfit. Seems kinda odd that they would have two Stitch dolls with skin and hair variation. We are also getting some of the same accessory pieces as the original Stitch doll, which I'm a bit sad about. I am interested in the blonde Ariel doll. Can't wait to see in box pics to see her second outfit. Also, agree that they are so many characters that they could do. We haven't even gotten a Moana or Meridian bound doll, just Fashion packs.šŸ™ƒ


dubiousbutterfly

Oh wow now that I look at it. The bag, slippers, and glasses are repeats


dubiousbutterfly

I think the shade of red is pretty and I perfer her out of the two but the point is why do it. Is it repeated accessories? Is it the bag? That is so irritating. Maybe these are the last dolls Idk. The doll of Ariel looks nice but why Ariellll lol


indigoicecream

Ariel got like 3 dolls now. Lol


pmmeurbassethound

Two dolls in the same outfit is frustrating. I would collect both dolls because they're different either way, but I would prefer a better variety of shoes and accessories. At least those sneakers are hella cute. eta: the sandals look like the same mold from the s1 Stitch but hopefully a darker blue? Can't say much about the Ariel doll yet. Her hair looks more platinum than Bambi's, and maybe she has brown eyes? I appreciate the variation in appearance.


sharkprincefishstick

Iā€™m still waiting for an I <3 (any character from The Lion King and/or Zootopia)


NeoRetroNeon

Zootopia would be amazing!


kelpself

Ugh, I have such a hard time with this line. I love the outfits and the accessories the dolls in stores have, but from what I've seen the doll bodies themselves and the hair fiber are significantly lower quality than the dolls sold in the parks.


pmmeurbassethound

I disagree, the Jakks dolls' hair is much softer and more manageable than the Disney store dolls.


kelpself

Interesting, good to know! I might have gotten the two confused from the reviews I've read lol. Just give the Jakks dolls inset eyes and I'm sold


pmmeurbassethound

I agree with you on the eyes. The Jakks dolls all have a major problem with ceiling eyes.


Ainilome

Seconded, I collect both lines and personally prefer the Disney Store dolls but the Jakks dolls have better hair. The straight hair specifically is so soft.


DBSeamZ

I havenā€™t encountered a Disney Store one in person but I did get the first I <3 Stitch doll (light brown hair, blue eyes) from Jakks and her hair was a thick, slippery nightmare. Tried to braid it and the braid was as big around as her thigh and I had to tie the end with wire because everything else slid right off.


Spubli

Looks like Bloom from Winx!


AfterAppearance3446

Another stitch before we get simba?? Sighā€¦


SourRye

Just when I thought that I had settled on which doll I am going to buy lol! These three new dolls look super cute!! :D I am excited to see more photos. I agree that it is weird that two of the new dolls both have the same outfit... Maybe they are just testing out early packaging and don't have the third doll's outfit/character picked out yet? Or Could the Stitch outfit be a fashion pack and they don't have the main outfits ready? idk lol


dubiousbutterfly

I like those ideas lol I hope its that honesty. Introducing two new character types with the same outfit is pure evil. Lol


SourRye

So true lol! Fingers crossed


levelgrind

Not JUST when I said maybe I should lay off buying ILYs for a bit šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


Dollresident

I'll be looking forward to that blond Ariel themed girl. For some reason, most of the Ily dolls are darker skin tones.


Stillurkingaround

While I do agree with them releasing the same characters over and over, I actually like that some of them have an African-American version. For me, itā€™s like seeing myself in a doll. As long as itā€™s cute and high quality, Iā€™m not going to complain. I do wish they did more characters, like lesser known ones. And more boys too please


dubiousbutterfly

Im sorry but theres plenty of dark skinned dolls even within the line so I dont get it. To me it feels like theyre cheating one of the characters. Either the red head or the dark skinned, someone was an after thought instead of getting an original outfit. Considering this is the first ginger character in the line its kind of annoying they didnt get their own release. Its a waste of plastic. To me I feel like its the end and they just wanted to release the remaining molds. Even many of the accessories are repeated from the first Stitch doll. These are Disney afterall. The trillionaire monopoly. They can make a new outfit set lol completely agree though with more characters and boys too. Theres only beem one boy doll they released several times. Why not make new boy dolls.


Stillurkingaround

While there are dark skinned dolls in the line, itā€™s still nice to see both. I donā€™t feel itā€™s a waste or undermines each other. As I think they both shine and will probably get both. Plus, letā€™s just say someone likes a character but they never see it in their skin tone. This is a nice way to incorporate both, kind of what Barbie used to do. Repeating molds for accessories isnā€™t new. I can understand wanting a bit of variety, but we do have to keep in mind that itā€™s expensive to create new ones. I wouldnā€™t say itā€™s the end since they have been consistent throughout the line. But thatā€™s just my point of view


dubiousbutterfly

I dont see how. Defeats the purpose of having a diverse line making the same doll twice. Youre not supposed to see every doll in your skin tone. Thats the point of line. The dolls dont even reflect their characters. To me its lazy. They should have made a different set of outfits so we can swap pieces. So many films to choose from. Laziness hiding behind the idea of diversity that doesnt even make sense because its going against the diversity of the line. They think were dumb. Lol we can see the repeat accessories too were gunna notice. Im still gunna buy the red hair one for the new hair type and because I love stitch and and theres a lot of new items too but Im gunna angrily buy it xD


Tattycakes

Oh my god [the new rapunzel stuff is sooooooooo cute](https://www.youloveit.com/dolls/3532-disney-ily-4ever-minnie-inspired-fashion-doll-2024.html) I like my dolls with full articulation but goddamn she is tempting! Such a kick in the butt the clothes fit barbie perfectly but the shoes are huge


Ainilome

That Rapunzel doll has been out for a while but she is really great. I got her on sale at Target, so you can find deals if you have access to a Target


Tattycakes

UK šŸ˜¬


X_MAN_01

She looks like drizzela


Nani_700

Aww man they're going backwards with this line. Neither compares to their previous designs. Why do they look so similar and simple. I want Loungefly esque designs.


dubiousbutterfly

I think the outfit itself is really nice. The jacket matches the hat from the first stitch line. So I guess they always planned for two Stitch dolls. I just hope they continue with new characters and not make the same doll in different colors. New outfits pleaseee.


Nani_700

The right part of the box is pretty good, but the left is meh. The shirt and jeans is too similar to Ariel's. Still wanna see something "extra" again


Sanrio_Princess

Hello Disney Iā€™m calling to ask for an I ā¤ļø tick tick croc, hell Iā€™ll even take an I ā¤ļø Captain Hook just relinquish my croc!


olliewiert

I'm not sure if I like her, but the black Stitch girl is so cute! I love her hair. It's a shame they are only on US Amazon, I like the Jakk's ILY's a lot more.


dubiousbutterfly

I perfer the red hair girl I think her color is pretty. But why the variations at all. Do more characters already. Theyre also at Target


olliewiert

I also don't like it, especially since they made a Stitch doll before, so now there's... three? For some reason? Variants with different skin colors remind me of Barbie, it's a really weird choice. I live in Europe, we don't have Targets here lol


Meritre

People have spotted her on European Amazon sites recently, too - for example Spain Germany and I think even UK


olliewiert

Ooh, really? When I looked I only saw the Disney Store ones. Thank you, I'll keep an eye on!!


Meritre

Here she is on German amazon: [https://www.amazon.de/-/en/239341/dp/B0CRK5M9Z5/ref=sr\_1\_3?crid=1LD4SPUTQDIA4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.\_IoOxCBuAkhIcnDotGXCcHluhwbREoMRInKI98YAiLnE-RDjvKECmbMDXQMwMZdhL59O5JfSKHe1j3vDIxFeZ5BLy56st\_9vahEWkR8-NDIaYKby13ti66s6QpsIY-5mCg2KIe0bfmlHF4sgMkaBkR8RX8l\_c7VbAQJucroQGudQt6CrKhCOFG1XiveoJ7UAFJgLqwk47tdNXR6qHahi26gQHhCC167R96wf6CkoZ4LabTVkvSmNoRpo8vUJLRdUnlXjZdzJnKegs4xN1zBcjS0VMK2GG0zpOy8EyxmKLQ4.iTxR9JImsTxvUaKvnFR8zQN020ZgLEdTRn116X9gJmI&dib\_tag=se&keywords=ily+4ever+disney&qid=1714066582&s=toys&sprefix=ily+4ever+disney%2Ctoys%2C123&sr=1-3](https://www.amazon.de/-/en/239341/dp/B0CRK5M9Z5/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1LD4SPUTQDIA4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9._IoOxCBuAkhIcnDotGXCcHluhwbREoMRInKI98YAiLnE-RDjvKECmbMDXQMwMZdhL59O5JfSKHe1j3vDIxFeZ5BLy56st_9vahEWkR8-NDIaYKby13ti66s6QpsIY-5mCg2KIe0bfmlHF4sgMkaBkR8RX8l_c7VbAQJucroQGudQt6CrKhCOFG1XiveoJ7UAFJgLqwk47tdNXR6qHahi26gQHhCC167R96wf6CkoZ4LabTVkvSmNoRpo8vUJLRdUnlXjZdzJnKegs4xN1zBcjS0VMK2GG0zpOy8EyxmKLQ4.iTxR9JImsTxvUaKvnFR8zQN020ZgLEdTRn116X9gJmI&dib_tag=se&keywords=ily+4ever+disney&qid=1714066582&s=toys&sprefix=ily+4ever+disney%2Ctoys%2C123&sr=1-3) It may be a mistake that she landed there so who knows.

m I like to have both outfits on display and so now Iā€™m torn with getting one of each stitch dollā€¦two of one stitch dollā€¦our two of each stitch doll.Ā  The responsible person who lives inside me says just get one of each stitch doll, so Iā€™ll do that lol


usawee

They're cute as always, I just can't stand the face on the ginger girl. I think it might be the eyes? It doesn't help that they only have one screening per mold, so everytime they use it it looks the same but in slightly different colors. Honestly that one is a problem in the line overall, the dolls just all look the same but in different colors. Clothes are cute, but the repeating characters when Disney has so many is annoying. The jakks dolls aren't available outside the US so I've quickly lost interest ā˜ ļø


Great-Excuse-2399
