Disney & JAKKS Pacific ILY 4EVER Bambi Fan Review. Inc.🦌

Today, for the first time, we have on review one of the cutest representatives of the ILY 4EVER doll series from the collaboration of the Disney and JAKKS Pacific.Inc companies - the Bambi baby deer fan 💘
The 1/6 (28 cm) blue-eyed blonde belongs to the editions with painted eyes and comes with two thematic sets of clothes, shoes and accessories that can be stylishly mixed together. The beauty also has a gift for her girl friend - a bright ring in the form of a Mickey Mouse symbol.
The doll's packaging is a classic blister with options for mixing clothes on the back. There are no certificates and a stand in the package, so in the review we will use a stand from personal stock☺️

A girl falls in love at first sight with her fragile and cute appearance. She is unsure, but she can stand by herself, and for more complex posing, she cannot do without a stand.
And the first thing that the little fashionista shows us is her soft pink detailed hat made of semi-soft plastic, decorated with a bronze ribbon, where the Mickey Mouse symbol is hidden among the polka dots😊 The hat fits perfectly on the doll's head and fits the girl very well👒

The girl, in turn, herself resembles a fragile fawn: a classic, beloved by many, Disney type of face - expressive, open eyes, a small snub-nosed nose, a pleasant slight smile on the lips😍 The doll's makeup is made in gentle, pleasant colors. On the upper eyelids, under certain lighting angles, small sparkles are applied. In general, the painting of the face is very detailed and high-quality, but there may be extra spots or excessive layering of paint. This, if you find fault with it and look for it.

A girl's hair is a separate aesthetic thrill: thick, high-quality stitching, a good parting, namely hair, a shade of warm blonde, incredibly smooth, clean and shiny, not a drop of varnish. The quality of the hair is a little harder than that of Matel dolls, but it is elastic and quite obedient❤️‍🔥 It looks incredible!

The doll's first outfit (basically worn) consists of a cute Bambi and butterfly blouse, a plush skirt, a detailed handbag and stylish pink boots.
Our warmest tributes to the designers who created all this beauty, because the selection of colors and attention to detail are really impressive😍 The whole look of the girl is a combination of shades of pink and bronze, white as a neutral tone, and elsewhere blue and mint for accent .
The blouse has a cute Bambi pattern (not a print, but a dyed fabric), the sleeves are gathered on the forearm, and the fastener on the back is a thin velcro. The quality of tailoring is quite high, the seams are even, the inside is more or less neat.
A soft plush lantern skirt, surprisingly, looks very bright and also fastens with Velcro. And it was also gathered a little in the back with a plastic hairpin, probably for volume)))
A stopper is sewn from the inside of the skirt so that the skirt does not bounce on the doll.

Soft pink boots with brown soles, although made of a rather hard plastic, are easy to put on and take off. Among the interesting simulated details of this shoe are shoelaces, a zipper and thin bows☺️

The shoulder bag from the number one clothing set is the height of cuteness🙏🏻🥹 Moldavian base with a deer in flowers, a rather thin "leather" strap with imitation of gold weaving, a fun tassel on the side, and also the possibility to put something thin inside😍 On the back of the bag - Moldavian ILY logo.

We had to fiddle a bit with changing into clothes number two, because the girl’s expressive gestural hands did not want to move into the too narrowly sewn cuffs of the blouse 😅 We share a life hack for those who do not know this: we put the cut corner of the ZIP bag on the handle with protruding fingers and push it the handle of the doll in any narrow sleeves without consequences for the fingers (they will not fall off) and for clothes (for example, knitted)😉

Outfit number two has the same color scheme as the first, and also consists of a bambi blouse, an interesting skirt, spotted fur boots, a handbag and an amazingly delicate pendant with a baby deer in flowers🤩

The blouse is created from a combination of various textured fabrics, it looks very festive and stylish. The fastener is a thin velcro on the back. The quality of the inside is at a high level👍🏼
The fluffy trapeze skirt has a very interesting design solution: the fabric is painted with multi-colored patches, and seams are laid along the borders of the patches (only in front of the skirt, not in the back). Deception pockets, shaped glued gold buttons and an ILY logo tag make the skirt incredibly stylish. The skirt fastens with Velcro on the back and also has a sewn-in bounce stopper.

Chic bright boots with fur and Bambi leather (we hope it's a leather substitute🫣) complete the stylish set. Laces, fur, tractor sole, again the symbol of Mickey Mouse on the heels and "B" - Bambi on the straps - there is something to admire for lovers of small details😍
The boots are made of semi-soft plastic, are comfortable to wear and hold well on the doll's legs.

A small handbag on a golden strap in the form of a deer's face with ears reminds us again which cartoon character our cute blonde is a fan of.
The handbag opens and you can also put something thin in it.

A bright gift for a little girl's friend - a shiny pink ring with an aquarium effect and in the shape of Mickey Mouse's head.

Parts of the doll's outfits can be combined and mixed together in different ways, and our team personally likes this option:

The body of the doll of this series (with painted eyes) is hinged, but the hinges are all one-piece, bend no more than 90 degrees.
Unlike the dolls of other series of fans, which have insert eyes and two-part hinges in the knees, which significantly improves the articulatory capabilities of the doll.
All ILY 4EVER dolls have molded panties.

Dimensions of the doll's leg:

And this is how the Bambi fan ILY 4EVER looks next to the standard Barbie from Mattel (in the photo of the Extra large head on the standard body made to move):

Hybridization!

It goes without saying that, as fans of super-moveable dolls, we couldn't resist trying to hybridize this cute mannequin with the Made to Move super-moveable body🤭☺️
According to the proportions, Curvy's curvaceous body was chosen, and Neko was the closest (with a barely noticeable difference) in terms of skin tone.

The anchor and the neck opening of the ILY 4EVER doll's head look as shown in the photo below, so you don't have to do any extra manipulations to transplant the head (except, of course, a careful heater).
