Eurweb is reporting that Disney's "The Princess and the Frog" merchandise is apparently flying off the shelves despite the film being weeks away from its debut in theaters on Dec 1st. Apparently all of the items linked to the studio's first black princess have already begun out-selling other Disney Princess merchandise by double digit percentages. They are reporting that more than 45,000 Princess Tiana dolls have sold in less than a month with 17,000 selling last week alone. At one major retailer, "The Princess and the Frog" bedding has sold nearly triple the amount of regular Disney Princess bedding.
If that wasn't enough Princess Tiana Just One Kiss doll tops FunFare magazine’s “Holiday Hot Dozen” and the Toys”R”Us "Fabulous 15" holiday lists. The doll was also recently nominated for the “2009 Girls Toy of the Year” award by the Toy Industry Association.
