Anime Cinderella Monogatari

[Mel]

My niece fell in love with a Japanese anime titled Cinderella Monogatari. The mini-series aired in Japan in 1996. It's on youtube with an English soundtrack, shown in 52 ten-minute sections (8.6 hours).

She would love to own a doll that looks like this Cinderella. Does anyone know where to buy anime dolls? I searched online. I found dolls for Sailor Moon, and a few action figures in comic books, but so far, nothing that looks enough like this Cinderella. Any ideas? Thanks!

I tend to forget how many random properties have been done as anime.

Getting anime dolls can be hard, and getting good ones is even harder. For example, there have been very many lousy Sailor Moon dolls. I don't think they make them specifically beyond big name properties.

I'm not sure what to tell you beyond asking through anime fansites. There are some fans who make their own products. I know of one who makes plushies to order. you can check out her stuff here: store.sailorastera.com

I read this the day you wrote it, and forgot to reply. Thanks for the reply and the info.

There is a large following for the movie, but so far, the only fans I've been able to try to contact speak Japanese! By Christmas, maybe I'll find a regular doll that bears a strong enough resemblance.

Thanks again.
