2019 Aurora and Phillip Limited Edition Doll Set - UK Disney Store Purchase - Princess Aurora Deboxed

Aurora has been fully deboxed. She is standing, supported by the included display stand.

I received the Platinum Aurora and Phillip Doll Set today, March 11, 2019. I bought it from the Disney Store UK on its release date, February 26, 2019. It shipped on March 1, 2019. The cost was 500 GBP + 28 GBP shipping, through PayPal, which came out to be $724 US. This is about $100 less than buying it from the US Disney Store when it is released on March 16 ($750 + 9.5% tax = $821).

It came double boxed. The outer shipping box was rather flimsy, and one end of it was crushed. But the inner shipper was undamaged, being protected by a crumpled layer of heavy wrapping paper. It had Cart #69 of 300 written on the shipper, which equates to edition number 269 of 650, as apparently Europe gets numbers 201 through 500.

The doll box has a unique design. The front lid has two flaps that have a magnetic closure, and a large orange four leaf design attached to the left flap. The dolls are dimly seen through frosted plastic windows in cutouts of the lids. There are rose gold foil trim in the plastic window and cardboard lid. The full title of the set is 60th Anniversary Disney Sleeping Beauty: The Aurora and Prince Phillip Collector Doll Set. It is a limited edition of 650. It contains a Certificate of Authenticity and individual doll stands. The description of the set in the back of the box states that this is a wedding doll set.

Aurora is in a primarily rose gold colored wedding gown, with white satin bodice, rose gold two tiered veil with lace trim, rose gold crown and necklace with white gems. There is gems and gold and rose gold embroidery in the outer skirt, and embossed detail in the inner white skirt. Her left eyelashes are a little messy. Her outer rose gold organza skirt when freed from her inner skirt is a full 360 degrees when laid down flat. Her inner skirt is pleated double layered cream colored satin with an additional sheer layer inside. It is very thick and heavy, and is turned inside at the hem, so it looks like a shower cap when viewed from inside. Their is rose gold embossing that makes it a brocade like material. Her veil is rectangular with rounded corners and lace trim, and the upper portion when draped over the lower part makes is double layered. The lower part exceeds floor length by several inches. She has angled feet with no ankle joints, but is wearing pink flats. That means she is on tippy toes when standing, and needs the support of the included display stand.

Prince Phillip is in a silver faux leather tunic, with puff upper sleeves in silver and red, and silver lower sleeves with embroidery on the cuffs. He is wearing black pants and boots. He has a full length red velvet cape with red satin lining. He has a black belt with a false buckle that slides along the belt (I had to center it on his waist after opening the box). He has dark brown rooted hair. His expression is rather bland. He doesn't have any stamping on his back. He can free stand fairly stably, but I used his stand when I put his cape on. He has a false shirt that is hidden unless you take off his cape.

Aurora is clearly the star of this set, and it's too bad that Phillip doesn't match her in elegance and detail.

The set is still available on the UK Disney Store site.
