Amazon has had some weird listings in the past few months, like the Ever After High toddler dolls. I ordered all 4 of those, but have no actual expectation of them shipping, even though both Maddie and Apple have delivery ranges. (Maddie's has 10 more days before it ends.)
Today, I noticed listings for Winx Club Believix Power dolls, one of the Jakks Pacific Winx lines that was only sold at Toys R Us. Believix Power features the style of the Season 4 Believix outfits, but in monochromatic rainbow shades, one for each fairy. Bloom is red, Stella yellow, Aisha green, Musa blue and Tecna purple. And Flora pink. Not exactly fitting in the rainbow, but eh, you get the point.
Bloom, Aisha and Musa all have Amazon Prime listings for $21.99 each, saying they'll ship in "1 to 3 months." I decided why not and ordered all 3. As with the EAH dolls, I really don't think they'll actually ship, but hey, you never know. I only ever got Musa from the line, so I wouldn't mind Bloom and Aisha. And another Musa to stay stock, since mine is redressed.

Long time lurker, first time poster. The same thing has happened with a bunch of older Bratz dolls and other older MGA toys as well.

I asked a someone on Amazon chat and they said that it wasn't a glitch and that you will actually get them. So I ordered a Dance Crewz Jade. Now seeing this I'm not sure if it will actually ship.
I thought maybe MGA stuff was similar to that stuff from china you posted about here before (those Winx and WITCH dolls from giochi preziozi)
Also I've been meaning to thank you for the tip regarding the winx/WITCH dolls. After reading that tip I was able to snap up several dolls from ebay and here https://www.aliexpress.com/store/group/Dolls/3214034_512471449.html?spm=2114.12010608.0.0.3e9bd97cSXM1yK
So I wonder what the deal with all these amazon listings is?
P.S. I emailed alpha group. There will be no more Regal Academy dolls and all inventory is sold out. We will never get those boys packs. *sigh*
Anyway thanks for all your help and information.
Please forgive my typos. It is rather late.
DeleteOh, interesting! I'll have to look at those Bratz listings.
DeleteI don't think this is quite the same situation as the sellers from China. These items seem to be coming from Amazon themselves. I'm glad you were able to get some older dolls though!
I'm waiting for the 12th to see what happens, because my EAH toddler Maddie is supposed to ship by then at the latest.
I'm sad Regal Academy didn't do better. I saw the formal gown Vicky at Tuesday Morning a couple weeks ago. Too bad they didn't get everything in!
Hi it's me again. Apparently this is also happening to some Disney fairies dolls and a few other Jakks Pacific toys.

According to the person (or robot, who knows?) that I talked to in Amazon chat regarding the Bratz dolls with similar listings, The distributor supposedly has the item and will ship it to you. The Bratz doll I ordered, along with another item I ordered from Amazon warehouse hasn't budged (I do not have prime).
Also in both of these cases, it not just the Bratz and fairies, but other items from their respective companies, such as Moxie girlz, a couple of Moxie teenz, a couple of things from Shrek, something called kachooz mga apparently made, a few other random items from Jakks pacific ect. That had this status of suddenly being retail price that would be shipped in a few months. Very strange.
Welp, now I've got orders for Bratz, Moxie Teenz, Disney Fairies, EAH and Winx! We'll see if any of it ever ships!
