How Tall Is An Animator's Disney Mini?

Edited to add together: Please at least skim to the end of this commodity, as I have some updated information near the dolls with "reflection eyes" that accept been coming out autumn/holiday 2014. Thanks.

Flynn Rider todder, Disney Princess & Me Rapunzel, "My First" Princess Rapunzel

One twenty-four hours, in Toys R United states of america, I saw a toddler doll of Flynn Rider (Eugene Fitzherbert) from Rapunzel. Had. To. Have. So I snatched him up and took him home while the gettin' was good. I was on vacation, so I waited until I got home to become pick up a Rapunzel. Both of these dolls had "My First" on the packaging, but I didn't think much virtually it.

Another day, shopping with my mom, I expressed a wish to have "all the Disney Animators' Collection dolls" because they're adorable. I now have a whole bunch. Cheers, Mom!

LIBBY for Disney Animators' Collection Exercise y'all love how her petty toes plow in?

I had no intention of unboxing the Animators' dolls until I got a example for them (and who knows when that might happen), only, afterward I released the LIBBY pattern for the "My First" doll, I got an electronic mail from a mom who was trying to run up for daughter's birthday. The pattern she had bought, for a fifteen″ doll, was style too large–I assume considering it was for a fifteen″ baby doll and they're chunkier, larger in calibration. I could see by belongings the "My First" up to the box that the Animators' would exist a little taller and a little chunkier. It wasn't until I broke open the box that I realized at that place were a number of differences betwixt the two dolls.

MIMI for "My Showtime" Disney Princess

I did a handful of patterns for each of these dolls, including MIMI for the "My First." MIMI has long and brusque sleeves, and I thought it would exist a cute cover if I photographed the two versions on Anna and Elsa from Frozen (which I besides had from my mom considering I'yard spoiled like that. 😉 ). And so I broke into Elsa's box only to notice that the todder dolls not labeled as "My First" are much shorter and slimmer! A slightly different body style and a TOTALLY different size.

This really ticked me off. I could see the Animators' being different because they're very stylized and marketed to collectors as well as children. But for these 2 play dolls to be so similar and yet such different sizes–grr! Information technology'southward bad enough that the doll companies are treating our girls like adult collectors and hardly offering anything in terms of clothing for dress-upwardly play. (In that location'southward a bluster for some other day.) They don't need to make it hard for united states of america to sew as well.

Disney Animators', "My First," and regular line toddler dolls. (And an annoying cat'south paws.)

So this article is here to give a heads-up to all those sewing for and shopping for clothes for these girls that there ARE differences among these three doll lines. I want to attempt to requite y'all some help if y'all're not sure what doll you're sewing for.

Animators' Collection

This is what the Animators' packaging looks like. (Not dented, hopefully.)

The Animators' dolls are 15 1/two″ tall. They're more often than not sold in Disney Stores and at the shops in the Disney theme parks and resorts. They're adorably stylized with large heads, big eyes, and have the most expressive faces. The banner on the dorsum and back of the head reads (c) Disney and also Mainland china. Packaging indicates Disney every bit the manufacturer. Patterns in my shop that fit this doll should exist tagged with "DAG for Disney Animators' Collection Girl.

• Height: 15 1/2″
• Bust: 8″
• Waist: 9 one/4″
• Hips: 9 1/two″

"My Offset" Princess

"My First" Disney Princesses have the phrase on the packaging.

You can ofttimes find these at Toys R Us, Walmart, and Target. Theyare toddler dolls, and not to be confused with the baby dollsthat share the aforementioned name and often similar packaging. Besides the obvious difference of the baby body with slightly bent limbs, the babe dolls as well seem to all take brusque, molded pilus, not rooted like the toddlers. The face is much more than generic-kid than the Animators' (though I think there was a release of dolls with bigger optics). The banner on the back of the dolls' head but says (c) Disney. Packaging indicates they're made by Jakks Pacific. Patterns in my store that fit this doll should exist tagged with DMF for Disney "My Commencement" Toddler Princess.

• Summit: 14 1/2″
• Bust: vii 5/8″
• Waist: 7 5/8″
• Hips: 8 1/2″

(See besides Stephanie's comment beneath most ii dissimilar sizes within this line.)

Toddler Princess

I'll try to get a photo of the generic packaging. This is the Frozen box.

I'thou non sure what to call this line. I'thousand not even sure how readily available these dolls are considering I'm not coming upwards with much in a Google image search. Comparison my Elsa to my Rapunzel (see comparison photograph above), the faces of these dolls are a lilliputian more sophisticated with a heavy black line to bespeak their lashes. They are besides smaller and slighter than the "My First" girls. The mark on the dorsum just says (c) Disney. Packaging indicates they're made past Jakks Pacific. Patterns for this doll should be tagged "DTP" for Disney Toddler Princess.

• Height: 13 1/2″
• Bust: half dozen 1/two″
• Waist: six one/4″
• Hips: 8″

I hope this helps yous figure out what doll yous have and what size pattern you demand. All the patterns in my Etsy shop that are fabricated for Disney grapheme dolls can be found in the Disney Dolls department.

Edited to add together: I demand to discover time to write this up new, simply for now, I just desire to allow you know about the dolls that are new for fall/holiday 2014. These are the ones with the "reflection eyes." They accept big, plastic eyes rather than painted like the previous version. The body for the these is slightly unlike, but they share clothes with the 13 1/ii″ princesses above. Going forward, I'll be fitting to the 2014 doll.

The new "My First" collection dolls with "reflection eyes" seem to have the same xiii one/2″ trunk. Anyone sewing for that doll will want the "DTP" patterns, not the "DMF" patterns.

The Princess Sofia dolls with "reflection eyes" (I found this doll at Target) are much larger than any of the dolls on this page. None of these patterns will fit that doll. (But I hope to have some soon, so let me know if you lot're looking.)

If you are rescuing an older doll of this blazon that has a Playmates 2002 marker on the backside, those dolls fit the patterns currently titled with "My First" and tagged "DMF." Be aware that the fit is a little snug through the chest. You may want to add together a little to the dorsum seam.
