About this deal
Something else, though small, is how great that single braid came out on the hair. It’d be easy to leave it out and no one would complain but Hasbro appears committed to making the Descendants 3 dolls the best they can be. Elsewhere, the face is wonderful, as are the glasses, and the colorful dress is top-notch. My only complaint is this doll doesn’t have any articulation, which given it’s one of the basic dolls, makes sense. It’s cheaper than the deluxe dolls, so it’s all good.
I know I keep going on about the hair, but getting Dizzy’s trademark space buns right is key to this doll looking like it should. As you can probably guess, Hasbro nailed them. What I especially love is how they’re not tight, perfect buns. They’ve got a slight frizz to them, just like they should. With all that out the way, let’s take a look at each of the dolls in this line. Disney Descendants 3 Royal Couple Engagement Hasbro did a really great job getting that denim look just right with the Disney Descendants Uma Fashion Doll. The Disney Descendants Celia Fashion Doll has some serious style, which is something you’d expect from the daughter of Dr. Facilier. As with the other basic dolls, I’d have liked more articulation, but as the price is low, I won’t complain too much, simply because of how much Hasbro got right with this doll.
Descendants Dolls
What you get in the deluxe version is the highly-detailed feathery cloak, more detail in the corset and coloring throughout the outfit, and that rather awesome staff.
Honestly, Descendants is such a good idea I’m amazed it hasn’t been done sooner. Kids love Disney characters and Glee-like pop songs, so why not have a tv film based on the adventures of the offspring of popular Disney heroes and villains? And want to know the best thing about the Descendants 3 dolls range? They’re not over-priced, which is always music to my money-saving ears. Disney’s fantasy tv film Descendants is everything a child could want from a show, so it’s safe to say, the Descendants 3 dolls are sure to be near the top of every child’s wishlist.
Descendants Costume Mal
There is a more basic version available if you’re looking to save money, but you don’t get the coat, extra detail, and staff included. It’s still good, of course, but if you can afford the deluxe version, that’s the one I’d recommend going with. It’s the top hat that really makes this doll. Add a top hat to any doll and it instantly becomes cooler. Them’s the rules. Then we have the Ben doll, which if kids are a fan of Mal, they’re going to want. There’s less to get excited about, as is the case with most boy dolls, but Hasbro has done a great job of getting the hair mold right, and it’s full of highlights for added detail. As for Ben’s suit, it’s decent. It’s well-made and looks classy. It’s just when you’ve got him standing next to this excellent Mal doll, it’s hard not to feel sorry for him.
