Members have reported this Hallmark pen from the early 2000s for at least Felicity, Kirsten, Addy, Kit, and Molly. kjalyssa12 remembered them: Ok so I remember as a kid, so back in the early 2000's, having a Kit Kittredge pen. It was a light almost robin blue fountain pen. It has silver end and tip. It also in the middle had kit riding the banister with a load of laundry. She would slide when you moved the pen vertically up or down. Maddy, my doggie. was kind enough to take a picture of her Molly pen to share: Here is my Molly pen.....the sad part is that the pen does not allow for new refills...

What a fun collectible. Why can't it be refilled?

It's just one mechanical figuration ...it does not pull apart to insert new refill

Just wanted to add that my Felicity pen was made in the same manner. The bottom portion, however, is green. Lettering and font used for the name 'Felicity' is the same. The top portion of my pen has the same 'see through' cylinder barrel and clip. Inside, though, is a panoramic landscape view of a green meadow or pasture. On the far left is a tree. On the far right is Felicity riding her horse, Penny. My pen still has the UPC code and price attached to the clip. The pen originally retailed for $4.00. Not $3.99 or $3.98. Just an even $4.00. P.S. On the back side of the panoramic view... inside the cylinder... white lettering on green background... reads 'American Girls Collection'.

I just picked up three of these (Addy, Molly & Josefina) off of eBay. (back of pens say "The American Girls Collection") There is no fluid in any of them. Does anyone remember if they ever had mineral oil in the cylinder? I found a collectors’ newsletter from that era (2002-03) where a member says they didn’t have liquid in them to begin with! floatabout.com/fa38.htmMy three pens each still has their Hallmark price/scan codes attached ($4) and all three still write (blue ink)

The two that I have are Felicity's and Addy's. These were a direct purchase from a Hallmark store.
Mine look like yours. Neither were 'floatly'. I.E. They just had the design inside the cylinder. No fluid of any kind.

My Molly pen still has the liquid that makes it a "floatlly".

Oooo! I didn't even know these existed. I would love it if AG did things like this again. I feel like all of the newer historicals are missing out on some great publicity without these kind of items.
