This 6-figure play set was seen online last August, part of the Classic Disney Villains Collection at the Disney Store. The Wicked Queen is joined by Maleficent, Captain Hook, Queen of Hearts, Cruella De Vil, and Ursula. Pieces measure up to 4" high. Made from PVC plastic. Original retail price $12.50.
Item No. 6372041440590P.
Ms. Evil holds a golden chalice in her right hand, ready to toast her own beauty. She is identical to the Queen figure released in the 8-piece
Snow White Figurine Play Set from 2011 (see
earlier archive entry).

Impressive how much they look like cartoons turned into 3D objects.
ReplyDeleteAlso, seeing them posed together like that is a reminder that the Wicked Queen really is in a class all her own... maybe only joined by Cinderella's step-mother. They are elegant and refined. Even stately Malificent still has a lot of flamboyance and flare, rather than poise.
I like the other villains in the collection, of course, but they need to fan out and gesture to be felt. The Wicked Queen's **presence** is felt.
And one "Queen" to rule them all! Oops, wrong movie. But Sheryl you're right on with your assessment of the Evil One. She's the perfect villain.
DeleteInteresting that only one of the villains is a man! I love the evil queen, but kind of wish they had made the figure in its "hag" mode. These are definitely nicer than the usual PVC figures.
ReplyDeleteMajor, It is interesting that only one of the villains is a man. I wonder what this says about Disney?
DeleteNo fear, the Old Hag figure is coming up in a post in the next couple of days.
Lest we forget Dr Facilier, Hades, Scar, Gaston, Jafar....
ReplyDeleteGood point David. Still, I guess when it come to the marketability of the merch, the females are more popular.
DeleteI actually really want this set even though I have The Evil Queen, Maleficent and Ursula cause they are all repacks for there movie sets..I'd leave it boxed
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a cool set. :)
