We went to the Disney Store today and were a bit disappointed when we realized that there were no Beauty and the Beast products anywhere! We have never before been in the Disney Store and seen every other Princess Gown except for Belle’s.

We asked the cast members at the store what was up and we were very surprised, and excited to hear that not only are the Belle products heading back to the store this summer, but Disney Consumer Products is also releasing a new Special Edition Belle doll to help promote the movie which is headed back to Special Edition DVD soon as it is being released from the Disney Vault at the end of 2010.

Disney is also sure to put a lot of emphasis on Belle over the coming year as Beauty and the Beast is going to be releasing to theaters in 3D in 2011.

So all you Belle lovers out there, breath a sigh of relief, she’s not gone for long!
