Update
I hope to go back to that Walmart today to pick up one (probably will return it as I don't need another pink bag, LOL!). But I want to bring it home and have a good "look-see", and Yes, I will take photos....
I don't think its a big deal about the bag being suspiciously similar to a Fleurville. This sort of thing happens all the time -- look at the Ella bags that use the Burberry novacheck pattern, the Kecchi, which is pretty similar to a Petunia Picklebottom, LV and Gucci knock offs. Not to mention how often it happens in the clothing industry.
I'm still picking up my real Fleurville Mothership this weekend from Right Start. I just thought that there might be some people interested in a slightly cheaper version....

RE: Melissa and Jenn...
Okay, I went this morning, and I admit to have bought one...I had to, to at least get you guys some good pictures, right?! ;-)
My store had about 4 of each of the following bags...
'Snow White' (White Cord Mothership)
'Pink Flamingo' (Pink Chocolate Mothership)
'Blue Rhapsody' (Blue Chocolate Alpha 7)
They also had another one in the 'Pink Flamingo', but it *sort of* looked like a similar shape to a Mac Bowling Ball Tote (the long handles and stuff. It zippered open in two spots (all the way around), and had some front velcro pockets a la Alpha 7, and then *possibly* two pockets on the side (they either had a velcro closure or an elastic closure, I can't remember).
I'm going to go and take pictures, and post back soon, I promise! I don't know if I should offer or not (I just don't want to upset people, but I know that Motherships aren't in the price range for everyone), but I have to go back this week, so if anyone is interested, let me know!
ETA: Pictures in next post!

RE: Dinatelli diaper bag -- Mothership knock off???
None at my Walmart either. Can't wait to see some pics. Thanks.

Pictures...
Okay, I'm going to try to post some pictures and we'll see what happens...I'm new to posting them here, and it's different than what I'm familiar with! And, I apologize for the appearance of the blue chair, I didn't realize it looks that bad! Time to get rid of it, or do something, that's for sure!
Now, for all except one, the flash was off, so the colour of the interior is likely truest in the one where the flash is on. And they aren't the best...I'm usually better at pictures than this! Ah, the pressure! ;-)
Front of bag.

This one you can sort of see the fabric under the vinyl, it is a white cord (the pink isn't cord), and the logo as well (sorry it's blurry).

Inside of the bag, empty.

This is the inside of the back pocket/compartment. You can also see (sort of) the zippered pocket in here as well.

This is not fully packed, I just couldn't think of what to put in there right now! This is generally what I carry in my Alpha (the big container on the left side of the picture is a full-size container of antibacterial wipes, for size reference), minus the pj's. There was still quite a bit of room, and there was nothing in the side pockets either. I wouldn't necessarily pack it like this, but I wanted to try to give an accurate representation of the size of the pockets. This is the picture where the flash is on (but that's pretty obvious, I think!), and the colour is pretty true (not quite as bright, but that's directly from the flash). The interior is a nice caramel colour.

Rear of the bag, with a sort of flat pocket.

Metal feet on bottom of the bag.

Changing pad that comes with the bag. As you can see, this folds into thirds, and fits into the bag (you can see it in several pictures above).

The no-slip shoulder strap (which is really comfy, from what I could tell from the short amount of time I've worn it!).

A picture of one of the side pockets (there are two).

I hope that these have helped a bit. Remember that the interior fabric is not as heavy as the fabric is in my Alpha, and that I'm assuming in the Motherships. You can likely tell that it's much floppier just from the pictures. Oh, and it does have a caribiner (sp?) clip as well, I just forgot to get a picture of that! Considering it's all of $28.73 (or something close) CDN, it's not too bad!
If you guys want any other pictures, just holler! I likely won't get them up until tonight, but I don't mind!

RE: Melissa and Jenn...
Thanks so much for posting the pics. Is there any other manufacturing info on the bags hang tag. I can't find any info on the net for Dinatelli (sp?) bags. Thanks again.

RE: Melissa and Jenn...
Maureen, I did and replied!
I just went and looked quickly at the hang tag (which once again, looks very much like a Fleurville), and on the very back it says Creations Dina Inc. Once the girls are in bed, I'll try to get a picture of it if you want, and maybe see if I can find more info! HTH for now!
