MalloMar I actually sort of agree. I've seen Elsa included in DP related things that sometimes don't include Anna. Anna IS the main character.

LupinPrincess I don't think she's over shadowed THAT much

misscindyspice Preach.

euny 100% agreed

324anna Whoever wrote this makes a good point, but like LupinPrincess said, I don't think she's overshadowed that much.

connor3 ^How is she not overshadowed that much? In the new "classic" DVD release of Frozen only Elsa is on the cover, while other movies has their main protagonist on the covers. We have like six pictures of Elsa in DP style, while none of Anna. Almost 60% of Frozen products is about Elsa, than 20% about Olaf and 20% about Anna. Almost every Frozen book is showing Anna as a support in Elsa's adventure. So yeeah, Anna is overshadowed THAT much and it starts to be really annoying.

AudreyFreak YES. Connor3 is correct. I work in retail so I get a good view of Frozen merchandise (which, let me tell you, is abundant) and I can confirm Elsa has far more products than Anna ever has. She has SEVERAL t-shirts to herself, even some in Juniors, while the only time Anna gets to be on clothes/accessories is when she has to share it with Elsa. Elsa and Anna both gets Pop Vinyls but only Elsa additionally has a special set with her, Olaf, and Marshmallow. Elsa gets posters to herself while Anna only appears with her or Kristoff. Elsa gets more stickers, notebooks, everything, she even gets more poses and space on the DVDs and posters! tl;dr Elsa definitely gets more attention and merchandise, which is disproportionate to her given screen time, making it very unfair to Anna, the actual star of the movie who should logically have at least some merchandise to herself.

connor3 ^There was also latest DP music video for 'The Glow', where Merida and Elsa were added, but Anna was missing.

324anna Okay, I was probably biased because I love Elsa way more than Anna and because whenever I see Frozen merchandise, I usually just turn around and roll my eyes, so I haven't really noticed whether she's actually overshadowed in the Frozen products or not. Sorry for being ignorant.
