Dolly Review: Disney’s Descendants Coronation Audrey

I know Audrey is the ‘mean girl’ of Descendants, but I have to say, she’s the prettiest doll in Hasbro‘s Descendants Coronation series. Audrey, the daughter of Sleeping Beauty, is the most popular girl at Auradon Prep, a high school for the sons and daughters of heroes.

Her doll is adorable. She looks like she just stepped out of an animated Disney movie! It doesn’t at all remind me of her TV Movie persona, but you know what? I don’t care. Her doll is probably my most favorite of the entire line so far.

Audrey has a lovely coffee colored skin tone. She has a jointed vinyl body with joints at her shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips and knees. Her head moves fluidly left and right, up and down.

By far, my favorite thing about the doll version of this made for TV movie character is her face. Hasbro made a great creative choice by choosing to make the Descendants dolls in a cartoon-like manner. In Audrey’s case, she has large, anime inspired chocolate brown eyes. Above her eyes is a layer of light pink. She has a heart shaped face with an open mouth grin.

Audrey’s hair is styled in a surprisingly well done up do. She has a head of chestnut brown hair with tan highlights. Audrey’s hair is pulled up into a side bun with a loose ringlet hanging down on either side of her face. There is a small plastic crown in her hair, held in with string.

Audrey’s coronation dress is a long pink dress with cap sleeves. The skirt uses two different fabrics, which adds some depth to it. She wears a bracelet, which seems like it’s molded to fit her forearm, making it non-removable. (Note: Apparently, you can take off their hands, so you can then take off their bracelets.) She also wears red flower earrings and a necklace. Her necklace has a bad habit of spinning around and falling off.

Her shoes are white heels with blue bird like details. The detail matches her purse, which has the same blue bird on the pink purse. The one downside of her purse is that it is kind of useless. It is just molded plastic. It is very pretty, though. I love the color combinations on the purse. Audrey comes with a ring for the a real kid to wear. It’s very small and this is coming from a girl with very tiny fingers. I don’t think this ring will easily fit many of the older children who may buy Audrey.

Overall, there are a lot of positives about Coronation Audrey. Her face is super pretty and her hair is very well done. Her outfit is a great color for her skin tone, as well.

One thing Hasbro has to work on is the female body they’re using so far for the line. Audrey will pose, but could move more fluidly. I had to really work at getting Audrey’s right leg to bend, to the point that I thought I may break it. Another smaller aspect I think Hasbro needs to work on are the girls hands. They look a little off. (But that may be just me who thinks that!)
