As much as I’m all for providing young girls with strong positive role models, I do think that this much hype over the redesign is a bit unwarranted, especially considering its nothing new. I don’t know how long the pictures on the Disney Princess website have been around, but I can remember when I was younger going into the Disney store, looking at the dolls, and thinking they didn’t look much like the characters in the movies. I was always especially frustrated by Mulan, who was often shown in a glossier version of her “match maker” outfit, complete with the make-up. Ignoring the fact that her make-up was closer to a Japanese Geisha than anything that would have been common in ancient China (feel free to correct me if I’m wrong on this point), she didn’t want to wear that make-up or that robe in the movie. Most of the Mulan merchandise is more girly than in her character in the movie, so I’m not surprised that this was done with Merida. I think that’s just the way Disney merchandising works; they put the princesses in the fanciest dress they wear in the movies and make that the signature outfit. I noticed this happening with the Merida dolls long before this new image came out. Although, the doll did have her bow…
 
I wasn’t aware that Belle was a princess… If I remember correctly she was a bookish peasant girl.
Silly person… She’s one of the Disney princesses regardless of her actual status. The official Disney Princesses are Mulan, Snow White, Tiana, Cinderella, Belle, Merida, Rapunzel, Ariel, Aurora, Jasmine and Pocahontas.

The whole “princess” category just baffles me anyway.
So, are we talking actual royalty in terms of story line or based on “Disney Royalty?”

Snow White, Merida, Rapunzel, Ariel, Aurora and Jasmine are princesses by birth.

Belle, Tiana and Cinderella are princesses by marriage.

Pocahontas is the Chief’s daughter and her love interest is John Smith, who is just an adventurer.
Mulan is not a princess either, she was born into an important and influential family line. Her love interest is Li Shang and he is the General’s son. Neither are royalty.

I thought Mulan and Li Sheng became royalty or something in the sequel. That aside, here’s a quote from disney.wikia.com where I copied the list from
…who are either royal by birth, royal by marriage, or considered a “princess” due to their significant portrayal of heroism in their film and/or of a very high status in their country/region.
 
I don’t see any comments from actual redheads, or not apparent. Those of us with red curly hair KNOW that the smooth waves version is not a reality without intense labor. It was really a bonus to see a character with red hair that actually acts like red hair. That was my biggest issue with the change.
