anyway here’s a post of all the character designs / concept art i could find for once upon a zombie that never got made into dolls. pics / commentary under the cut
zombie peter pan. this boy was on the back of alice’s box as “coming soon” and guess what? he never did.
zombie little red riding hood.
zombie aladdin. i’m confused as to why he looks like a child though. is this art supposed to be a kind of chibi style rather than indicating the characters are children?? if that’s the case why are only children drawn in it??? i have questions
zombie prince charming. whose prince charming? is this an into the woods type situation? the world may never know.Â
zombie queen of hearts (yes alice was a doll, but i can’t find a picture of the qoh on her own, so).Â
zombie snow queen supposedly coming “next year” but the website i found this on said this was posted in 2016, so.
zombie jack and the beanstalk.Â
zombie hansel and gretal. i wonder if these two would’ve been a two-pack?
zombie pinocchio. there is a prototype of this doll out there, but it’s frankly terrifying and so i didn’t include pics on this post. google it at your own risk.
zombie dorothy, who only exists on the cover of this book.
a character who is either pochahontas or tiger lily, i’m not sure. tbh i have my fingers crossed it’s tiger lily because pochahontas was a LITERAL CHILD and making a dead zombie doll of her feels...even grosser than disney’s movie, tbh. plus, she was in a lot of pics with peter and tink, so.
zombie tenika, who is apparently from the princess and the pea, but still manages to look kind of like a zombie version of tiana. tbh i’m shocked disney didn’t sue them (or maybe they just sent them a cease and desist, and that’s why this doll line died)
zombie pirates. was this a separate line? if it’s not, why isn’t bluebeard, a famous fairy-tale pirate there? if it is, why’s hook there as he ties into the fairy tale line re: peter pan. i have a lot of questions. one of which is where is zombie wendy? the story isn’t about pan or hook, it’s about wendy, but i digress.
