I am also thankful for your broken Barbie box. I have always enjoyed your reviews the most, as you are so down to earth, and likeable.And now you are a friend that has been very helpful to me many times. Thanks so much for always being willing to help. I started collecting when I was searching for Tinkerbell dolls, as I collect her. And found the Disney one, I didn’t buy her yet , but asked the seller a lot of questions about the Disney dolls. The actual first dolls I got were the Designer Rapunzel and Flynn with the lantern, as I was a huge Tangled fan. And I thought if they come out with a set of the two of them together , I’m ordering it. And I didn’t buy the 17” Rapunzel because I didn’t think it looked like her, and I hated the long lashes. But later regretted not buying her at retail, as I later paid $900 to get her , after I had a large collection of many dolls. I also had regretted not getting the first Elsa and Anna at $99 each , because the movie hadn’t come out yet. And they were stunning, but I had no idea who they were. I later paid $900 for Elsa and around $800 for Anna. So because of these regrets, I began buying everything! Now I’m way past no room, and I’m having to sell much of my collection. The last limited Ed doll I bought was Alice. I haven’t bought any dolls for well over a year. I would have loved to get the New Belle and Beast, and it was a much lower price than usual too. But at least I have the original plat set. The Saks dolls and the Platinum sets I’m not selling. Also my favorites I’m holding on to. But I have to part with the rest of them. But I will keep watching your reviews. I do have over $100 in rewards money, so I’m holding out for a must have to spend it on.
Thank you so much, I've wanted to hear this story since I started following you years ago. Your collection is gorgeous, and your first doll is a very good doll to start a collection with. Such a beautiful story that you started this for your daughter. My first doll was the frozen II Elsa doll, which was amazing because Elsa has always been very special to me and I grew up with her.
I just started collecting these dolls. Now that I have space and you are so right it’s soothing coming to the Disney room after a long day or stressful day.
My first doll was 10th anniversary Rapunzel. I'd wanted original Purple Rapunzel, but felt I just couldn't afford her. Although I adore the 10th anniversary doll, especially the amazing face and super long hair, I still just kept wanting the other one. Well, I recently had been given a raise at work and felt justified to finally get Purple Rapunzel and Wedding Rapunzel.
This is amazing story to tell. Believe it or not, you were the first videos that I started to watch for doll collection. This is what inspired me to enter to the world of doll collection and my first doll was Esmeralda from the Midnight Masquerade Collection.
1st doll was Merida…1st doll night was pink Aurora…I have so many dolls now lol my family mocks me, my 15 year old son grew up with my dolls, I love them! And really don’t care when people mock them…I know they want my dolls! 🙂
Thanks for sharing your story. It was interesting to hear how you started this collection. I can't remember exactly how I started mine but my really first LE was Cinderella. What a collection you have! Wow. The Beast Kingdom Elsa statue especially caught my eye. 😍I tried many kinds of collection in my life, but even after so many years I never tire of this dolls collection. They are so beautiful.
Oh my gosh this made me all giddy inside. We started collecting around the same time! Snow White was my first doll as well. I could not comprehend how big she was going to be, either, and was so surprised when a saw her, I cried. I bought her for less than $150. Then I found LA Cindy and LA Belle very close or below retail price. I was supposed to stop there but ... well I couldn't resist. Ahh, those were the days. I miss going to DS so much for doll releases. I loved hearing your story. You have a beautiful collection! I remember when you started your channel and I've been following your journey ever since. It makes me so happy how far you've come as a collector! 💞
Well that just made my day to read!! Thank you so much for the support over the years and congrats on getting snow as well as the other gals too! All beautiful!
Love your collection it’s fantastic. LA 17”Cinderella was the first doll and sister and I got. My sister has her now. She likes Cinderella more than me. I keep all of my 17” and 12” dolls in my bedroom. I too have no more room for dolls. I have kind of customized some of my 17” LE dolls by putting different outfits on them. By the way I love my Premiere Series Belle I got from you.
Your collection is beautiful, and I love your videos. Doll collecting is very addictive, you start with one and end up with hundreds of them. I love how personable that you are, and hearing the sound of joy in your voice as you speak about each and everyone of your dolls. Keep up the GREAT WORK. 😊
What an amazing story! :-) I enjoy all your posts and videos along with mmdisney. ☺️☺️Really makes me happy watching them considering everything we have all been through since 2020 these videos really bring joy. my first 17inch was Snow Shanghai release that I got in 2021 for a good deal and then I started my collection. I was late but started. Haha looking forward to seeing the next 17 inch ones haha maybe Jasmine because of the anniversary year!! Also heard Mattel will be back as a supplier they will replace hasbro next year. ☺️☺️☺️
Yeah you can never regret what you love ❤️! Everything happens for a reason. A broken box barbie changed your life in so many great ways! Love your channel and your collection. Great vid as always 😁👍. And I do the same thing with my collection, just sit and admire them all lol.
I had to replay 3x your inspiring story of Disney dolls collection..and watching your video brings so much uplifting spirits as I felt as if I have them..or wished I had them .thanks Disney dad..for sharing..a rare find..
I hope your able to keep growing your collection and sharing it. I know space is an issue. - I do believe it's all worth it as the items seem to increase in price over time. It's more then a collection, they're collecting value. It's like your own personal vault for you and your family.
Your collection is amazing, I would dream of owning all of these. I have just a few sadly. You're daughter would be so lucky to get all of this! Also what one crushed barbie doll can do haha (:
I love your story! I am so happy I decided to watch some of your videos! I started collecting similarly to you! Bought my daughter the Pocahontas animator doll when she was a baby- then all - so she could have a collection. Well turns out she loves stuffies and I’ve embraced dolls for myself 💗 I will definitely stay subscribed! Did you order Meg today?! I’m soooo happy they made a 17”!! All the best! 🤗🥰
i think i started collecting back in 2014, w my first doll being snow gear anna 💜 i was still a teenager then and worked a whole summer to afford purple 2011 rapunzel. my collection grew some more over the years, but around 2018 i started to feel ashamed of my hobby (thinking people may think i’m childish) and sold a few dolls. i stopped collecting again until the 2021 alice came out, and now i’m back on it and not caring what others think! i love this hobby and it doesn’t hurt anyone to find beauty in these dolls. now i am scouring ebay everyday to try and find good prices for pink aurora, blue aurora, and jasmine, all who i had got at retail price at the time but ended up selling. idk how you end up getting such amazing deals! i suppose i just have to be patient and check new listings everyday. jasmine is gonna hurt to get again bc her price has raised so much, i def sold her for much less than she goes for now!
also, your collection is beautiful and you have quite a few dolls i am jealous of. i don’t think i could ever get any of the platinum sets or red jasmine or d23 ariel w out winning the lottery haha
Could I ask your opinion on the Mattel Creations Princess dolls that will be coming out shortly (The Radiance collection I believe it is called)? Do you plan on getting any of them? Thanks!!
Beautiful ❤❤❤

Sorry it took so long to get this video out! I never knew if people would be interested or not! Elsa dolls are gorgeous - great doll to start with!

I got very lucky to get a lot of my dolls long before they went to these insane prices that they are now - its so sad how expensive they've gotten
Love seeing more men embrace hobbies such as this. Beautiful collection, do you know of Smart dolls or collect other dolls outside of Disney?
I do! I also collect select barbies, Rainbow High and just getting started in Monster High!
Cool
Which Disney brand are collectors most crazy about? Disney, star wars, pixar, marvel or pixar?
I think it depends on who you talk to LOL each sect will say they are more important/popular than the other
Could I ask your opinion on the Mattel Creations Princess dolls that will be coming out shortly (The Radiance collection I believe it is called)? Do you plan on getting any of them? Thanks!!
No i wont be getting any of them - their price is ridiculous
If my grandma didn't get me some bratz in 2017 I wouldn't own any bratz or even own any mga dolls for that matter
