 3 - lt skin, blonde hair, blue eyes RETIRED
« Thread Started on Aug 9, 2006, 7:36pm »

My GT 3 is Mattel.
She's a very cute doll. She has lots of personality! She looks alot like like Kirsten in coloring, and it's easy to mix them up at first glance. That should be taken into account before purchasing her, but she is a very wonderful doll anyway!

Grade A

I recently purchased a PM AGT 3 from eBay as my cousin's 8th birthday present, and though #3's never been one of my favorites since she looks a lot like Kirsten, she was cuter than I expected.

She's not 100% like Kirsten though. Her face and eye shape are definitely different than my WB Kirsten's, and of course, she has a bit shorter hair than Kirsten does anyway.

Grade: B+

We also recently added a #3 to our home. Ours is an older PM doll from around 1996. I am really impressed with how thick and beautiful her hair is. She looks just like Kirsten but her hair is shorter.

Just recently I received a gorgeous PM #3 from my cousin, who does not play with her dolls anymore. Poor #3 was in storage for a very long time, and thus has lost some of her face coloring (though that can be easily fixed). I believe she is a first run from 1995, but I'm not exactly sure.
Her vinyl is soft but very clean. Strangely enough, she has a body nearly as slim as my Mattel Elizabeth's. On the back of her neck, she bears a mark that looks like "#" which I believe is an artist's signature. My Samantha also has this mark...does anyone else have a doll with this marking?
#3 (now named Charlotte) is quite lovely, with long, luscious blonde hair that combs through easily. She looks wonderful in the tortoiseshell glasses as well as the lilac ones. I'll try to have some pictures up soon!
Grade: A

Edit: Previously I believed Charlotte was from the late 80's, but I was looking up some of the outfits that came with her on Meg's Guide to AGOT ...and I realized that the AGOT line wasn't constructed until 1995! *bangs head* :(

She looks extremely like Kirsten! Overall she is a wonderful doll. On the down side, her bangs are hard to deal with. On the upside her hair is pretty easy to style and her eyes are gorgeous!

Grade- A-

I had a PM version of this doll briefly and resold her (which was always my intent). She had really lovely thick hair, different from Kirsten's in that it did not have the short clipped hairs in the back where her braids split. Other than that, I did not see a difference between her and Kirsten. Because her hair was actually so nice, I would give her an A grade.

This is my daughter's AGT #3, Olivia Kirsten. She time travels to Kirsten's time and dresses like her.

This doll has beautiful hair. I think the AGTs with bangs have the best hair but hers is superb. She has very pretty coloring and is a beautiful dolll

Here's my #3, Hilary. She's Mattel and I have to say she's BEAUTIFUL. Among the prettiest of my dolls -- and she didn't start out that way.

[image]

Hilary began 'life' as an Ebay rescue. After months of wrangling, I finally decided to ship her to AG for a new head, and these are the results.

[image]

Her hair is so shiny and silky. I am not sorry I got her. I wasn't sure about another blond after Meredith but I don't regret it. Since she has an early 2000s body she doesn't fit a lot of the newer Mattel clothes, she's 'chubby.'

I sold her in September 2009 to buy #32 for the character and regret it, lol.

I don't have this doll, but one of my friends does so I get to see her and "play" with her every time my friend comes over (3-4 times a week, lol).

#3 is a very pretty well made doll. My friend's is from late 2007. This doll looks good in almost any color and has silky hair and the prettiest bangs. I would say the only down side is that she does look a lot like Kirsten.

I gave her a A because of that. Here is a pic of her wearing the GOT 2003 Rock Climbing Outfit:

My #3 was the first doll I ever got. I saved up all my own money from her - with help from the 1995 Savings game!
She has had several names throughout the year, including Mary, Abigail, and Charlotte. She is my mini-me from when I was little, though her eyes are a little bluer than mine. She is quite dirty now, but I don't know that I'll ever clean her up. Her shiny vinyl just speaks of all those years of play to me.

Her hair is much more golden than my Kirsten's.

I just wanted to note that i have an early version of this doll. and I have to say that yes she does look very like OLDER kirstens, like german ones....But her eyes are a different blue than the sightly newer PM kirstens.....see below

[image]
Above: This is a newer PM Kirsten

Below, my number 3 with a german/hungary Kirsten

as you can see the newer PM kirsten on top has darker blue to her eyes....does anyone else agree??

Thanks

Zoey, my 'Pleasant Company' marked doll, is my favourite in my collection. She was my first doll. I recieved her in 2002-03, so I believe she was made in China.

Let's start off with her hair. Though she came with me during my travels and had to endure all of the 'love' I was giving her, her hair is still fantastic. It feels, almost, as silky as my old dollies. She has a few split ends, but nothing major. Her hair is so lovely and thick. She has the thickest hair of all of my dolls. She looks good in many many hairstyles.

Her limbs and face still look pretty good, though her legs were replaced once.

I can say only one bad thing about her hair! It is too thick when it get's frizzy! she also needs short clipped hairs in her wig.

I got this doll secondhand, and she was in FABULOUS condition! She was in the today outfit of 2002, I don't know the name of it... The one with the purple boots. Her name is Graycee, I also got her the ready for fun outfit. She looks great in the petals and plaid outfit to, and well, everything else! She is my time traveling dollie. Her hair is a little bit shorter thatn Kirsten's.

Hair: Soft, shiny, perfect for styling A+
Skin: Light, durable A
Eyes: deep blue A++
Outfit: Adorable! can't say enough about it!!! A++++++++++
Overall: A+
