Instructions

    Find a Tinkerbell Doll

  1. Step 1

    Ask yourself or your child what type of doll is most desirable to purchase. Tinkerbell dolls are available in the form of stuffed animals, plastic action figures, glass figurines and fashion dolls. Depending on the age of your child, you should consider safety precautions when buying anything that is fragile or comes with small parts that could be swallowed or choked on.

  2. Step 2

    Consider the price range in which you want to spend for a Tinkerbell doll. Limited-edition figurines could cost upwards of several hundred dollars, as they are often very rare and difficult to get, while a plastic action figure may cost very little in comparison. Because Tinkerbell is a very popular and long-standing character, a large variety of collectible dolls are likely to be available, but these may be less appropriate for use by small children than inexpensive stuffed dolls.

  3. Step 3

    Purchase a Tinkerbell doll during a trip to Disney World or Disneyland. Because Tinkerbell is one of Disney's mascots, the stores and souvenir stands located throughout these amusement parks are likely to offer a large selection of Tinkerbell products. Many of the shops are located outside the areas of the park that require admission, so if you live close to either of the Disney locations, you can shop without paying to enter the park.

  4. Step 4

    Look online for Tinkerbell dolls through sites like the Disney Store (see Resources below). If you are looking for rare Tinkerbell collectibles, online auction websites are a good resource and may offer more affordable prices than retail stores. Be sure to only provide your credit card information to reputable websites and understand what the shipping costs and delivery timeframe will be before agreeing to purchase anything.

  5. Step 5

    Buy other types of Tinkerbell products to accompany your Tinkerbell doll. Video games, board games, clothing and DVDs devoted to Tinkerbell are also available for purchase and make a nice gift for someone who already owns a large collection of Tinkerbell dolls. Look for these items online and in the same stores you purchase Tinkerbell dolls.

Tips & Warnings
  • If you or your child is a fan of Peter Pan, consider purchasing dolls of other characters from the story, such as Captain Hook, the Lost Boys or Wendy.
