LITTLE MERMAID - POP Deluxe N° 1702 - Ariel (Stained Glass)

This top-of-the-range vinyl figurine features the most famous mermaid in the Disney universe in a particularly meticulous artistic diorama.

This model from the "Deluxe" range features an immersive structure in which Ariel is showcased against a magnificent backdrop inspired by traditional stained glass windows. The stained glass incorporates subtle narrative details from Disney's masterpiece, including the silhouette of the fearsome sea witch, Ursula. Designed to interact with its surroundings, the diorama reveals all its splendour and the intensity of its aquatic hues when the window in the background is illuminated, creating a superb play of transparency against the light.

Ideal for fans of underwater tales, classic animation enthusiasts and collectors of the Disney universe, the object is presented in its original cardboard window box, allowing the scene to be displayed while ensuring its protection.

Ariel is the rebellious and passionate heroine of Disney Studios' twenty-eighth animated feature film, The Little Mermaid, released in 1989. Dreaming of discovering the forbidden world of humans on the surface, the young princess commits the im prudence of sealing a pact with the perfidious Ursula, swapping her crystalline voice for a pair of human legs. This diorama perfectly captures the duality of the work: Ariel's naïve curiosity and yearning for freedom in the foreground contrasts with Ursula's Machiavellian designs, whose silhouette lurking in the patterns of the stained glass recalls the constant threat to the young mermaid's future.
