Disney Princess claims its history as part of the Walt Disney franchise. This series based on prior line ups in Disney movies that have contained past Disney Princesses. Those such as Pocohontas, Mulan, Tiana and others come together in this group. There have also been a host of 'unofficial' princesses that have joined the ranks of Disney Princess. Those such as Alice from Alice in Wonderland, Tinker Bell from the famous Peter Pan series and Giselle from Disneys Enchanted cartoon.
The history of this most famous company has also released many toys, dolls, videos and a large host of other types of children's products down to plates and cups in sets for the very young. The actual Disney Princess series came into creation when in early 2000 a man named Andy Mooney was hired by Disney to help market and increase sales. Mooney decided upon the Disney Princess idea after attending a Disney on Ice show and witnessing the many young girls dressed up as princesses. He spotted the need and the enjoyment of this topic and grew the Disney Princess series from it.
The fact that follows is a source of Disney pride in that their Disney Princess series despite very little advertising went on to become a huge success that topped sales in 2001 at $300 million dollars and on to $3 billion in the year 2006. Disney expects and anticipates sales to top over four billion for the fiscal year 2009 and onto well over 6 billion into the year 2011.
