If Disney makes “dreams come true,” Temu has quickly dashed them for one fan.
The mother of popular Australian vlogger Seb Laz was left “devastated” when her highly-anticipated princess-inspired decor appeared more grotesque than glamorous.
Laz said his mom ordered the seasonal statue from Temu — a site that markets itself as a one-stop shop for affordable goods — and was shocked to unwrap a box full of deformed figurines to adorn the tree.
The multi-tiered “tree,” featuring rotating levels, a train circling the base, Cinderella’ castle at its peak and statuettes of many other Disney beauties, wasn’t up to par with the fanatic’s expectations.
Laughing all the way, the jolly TikToker reimagined the names of each belle in his viral video, which scored over 2 million views, rattling off monikers like “The BIG Mermaid,” “Beast and the Beast,” “Snow Yellow,” “Sleeping Ugly” and “Cinderfella.”
The off-kilter ornaments were wonky down to every last detail, from their defiantly asymmetrical eyebrows to their semi-smushed smiles.
“She was DEVASTATED,” Laz wrote in the caption. “[I don’t know] which was the worst one.”
While viewers admitted it looked fine “from a distance” or likened it to a children’s craft, others said it was to be expected from the bargain e-commerce site, which is notorious for delivering less-than-ideal products.
“Well it is Temu, you can’t really expect quality all the time,” chided one viewed on TikTok.
“My god it’s pure chaos 10/10,” another applauded.
“Was it .. rescued from a fire??” one person snarked.
“Well … if you close one eye, then the other, it really looks great,” joked another.
The authentic version of the Disney carousel tree is available on Amazon for just under $200.
