Is the ballerina cute or cheap/scary? I have read reviews for other boxes about poorly painted faces.

My daughter (8 yrs) and I think the ballerina is cute. It is made well and hinges have not fallen apart like on other boxes we had in the past.

Our granddaughter (5) and I think the ballerina is lovely and the jewelry box is very good quality compared to others.

I'm sorry but I don't remember her being in a box at all. I think she just came in a plastic bag but I could be wrong. She's really nice and if you want it for a play toy, she's great. If you are looking for saving, ???

The paint job varies from one to the next since it includes a wash, which is random by nature. That said, the paint job on mine is great. Sculpting on bicepts and arms is excellent. Take a minute to look at more pics online, there are plenty of them out there. This really is an amazing figure, one of my favorites all-time.

Yes, This was my first figma, so I did not know the quality. I also wanted to know why this was $50 and the fakes on ebay are around $20. I ordered a fake one from ebay, and this one, and knowing nothing else prior about figmas, it was plainly obvious it was real even from the box, whereas with the fake, the boxes are very cheep, and when I ordered the fake its head fell off as I took it out of the box. With this figure it is still in the same pose that I left it in months ago, and thats even after using the figure in stop motions and things that usually wear down the joints and make them loose.

The paint job does vary on the figures though mine was good. As for the melted arms question, i'm not sure what your talking about. My figure was great. However, I will say that this line which I think is a winner for the most part, does have some QC issues going on. Thankfully if you do order a figure with some issues you can return it.

The face isn't soft. the body is soft, its stiff enough to hold its shape, but not hard. I bought this for my niece, and id buy it again. it is exactly what it is supposed to be, a realistic looking stuffed animal. my niece has it laying on her bed at all times.

It looks great & very durable, posing is easy as well . usually figmas range from 60$-90$ so this price is way too high, but as someone stated below me it depends on how much you like the character.

This is a scalper, people. They are on sale, but many dolls get bought off the shelves so that the "seller" can take advantage of the hype. Wait a month. There will be more!! That's how it was with Robecca, Rochelle, Venus, and CA Cupid.

I just noticed a greenish blue spot on her nose and scratch on her cheek :( so far I've tried getting it out with some blue dawn but hard to say if it even faded or not. Seems as if others had the same issue. Maybe there was a bad batch once apon a time??? I purchased mine on clearance in 2013 at the Disney Store. I'm hoping it doesn't spread or that somebody's found a way to get it out. Doesn't help that my 3yr old daughter also has a fear of the HULK. So far she doesn't seem to mind as we just noticed it today. From previous reviews it doesn't seem to be because of the dress. I'm wondering if maybe the formal version of the doll (blue dress) or even the classic version has the same issue?

hmm...let's see, it reads JakksPacific, Disney ??!! nope ! The word Mattel is no where on the box. Think there IS a Mattel one but I think I got it because I liked the facial features that resembled Angelina's face/make-up and the price was RIGHT :) Hope this helps !

I'm not selling one. I bought two off Amazon. Both were version 2, the first arrived broken, and the replacement broke after one transformation. I was hoping version 2 would be better than the version one I had, that also broke, but it's just as overly fragile. Both versions of the figure rely on small thin, and weak hinges. I really would recommend not buying the figure, I wanted to love Masterpiece Rodimus, but this mold is just too flawed. I'm hoping Takara/Hasbro produces a new MP Rodimus mold sometime in the future.

For a one time permanent painting, Probably. Its hard plastic, but great quality. She is already fully made up with make up and lashes. She is more beautiful in person than pictured. I uses her to display hats. for a more close up view of her you can check out www.Stephfleecedesigns.etsy.net Good Luck

Also. I don't know if I actually bought the doll from amazon. I bought by the doll on amazon. However there is so many different sellers on here. You could be buying a doll that came from a different distributor then what Amazon uses. Good to ask questions. I honestly wouldn't have never looked if all this hadn't came to surface about the doll and it's different mask. That was and is the only reason I know for sure operetta has the spiderweb mask and not the heart.

No. She is beautiful and childlike. Not aggressive-looking like Barbie. She has a very natural and sweet face and smile. I think she is the prettiest doll on the market. She has a lovely vanilla smell too.

Yes. It is cute. I do think it is a bit pricey for what you are getting, but right now my daughter wants and plays with everything Frozen. It is very similar to any of the other magic clip dollhouses except that it does have a light up feature which gives it a little more appeal.

Looks like the beginning of my answer didn't get posted, so here goes again, just in case...No, the face is not covered. The doll comes strapped on pastel cardboard with a satin ribbon at her neck (and I think her wrists, too). The pastel cardboard she's attached to has to be pulled out of the pastel box she comes in, so it is still a surprise to behold her as she emerges from the box.
