I really dig that Aurora Anime style statue, though I like the face better in the drawing than in the final statue. I think the smile she has is prettier in the drawing. Also, I do LOVE Anime girls, but my face preference for them is the cutesier, bigger-eyed/smaller nosed Sailor Moon-faced style. I do tend to like big-eyed/small nosed girls in general in real-life too, ha ha. I'm not saying the style used isn't more appropriate for Aurora. I do think maybe her face should be a bit more angular/longer though, since that is what really sets the character apart from the other princesses for me, even though it makes her less my type (still gorgeous though).

I've never compared the singing harp to Tinkerbell's design till I saw that pic in your post. Gorgeous statue! Your collection is marvelous. When I look at the Shaggy Dog statue, I have a hard time not thinking of Gurgi in pajamas.
Thanks! My collection is a rather affordable one since it is still in early stages, so most of them were bought on Ebay with the best deals I could find, or in other cheap ways. It's my effort to mature my overall movie/cartoon collectibles collection by having fewer toys and more statues, replicas, and wall art, and things like that. Yeah, there are definitely similarities among that era of Disney girls, just as there are among the 90's era. That's cool though, as I really dig those two styles of girls, ha. I have some Tink sculptures, of course, as she and Ariel are my main two Disney girls (well, and Rapunzel now), but none of them are WDCC sculptures, so someday I hope to either replace them with WDCC's, or at least add some, along with the Electric Tiki ones.
Here is one of several Star Wars animated-style maquettes I'd like to get. Though I have a lot of Star Wars merchandise (maybe need to clear some out), I don't have any sculptures, and I really like the animated style ones, some more than others, of course. This one actually is pretty affordable. Though, I can't really buy anything right now till I find a job and can move out of my sister's place.
Here's another, though it's the girls I really want more than anything, Padme and Leia, though I don't like the gold bikini animated Leia as much as the Episode 4 one, but I can't find any pics on Amazon right now, and pics I get elsewhere don't usually seem to work here.
Here is a very hot female Ghostbuster Bishoujo statue I really wouldn't mind getting! I saw it in a comic shop once too, and I wish I'd picked it up. However, I'm not sure what it's made of. I do have one Bishoujo Zatanna, but she is just made of plastic (from that Anime-Con line, but one of the early ones, which weren't made as well as the later ones but had cuter outfits/designs).
Here are a few of the WDCC statues I want the most:
The mermaids in pan were just too gorgeous:
I really love to get characters not often seen in merchandise, like Johnny Appleseed here:
(there's also a nice film scene base for this)
Again, those are just a few I found on Amazon. There are some others I want just as much. One of my favorites that I do own is Uncle Scrooge from Scrooge McDuck and Money, as he is my favorite cartoon character. I will have to find a pic of him sometime to post here.
