I received Rebecca almost a year ago, last Christmas. The doll herself, I have absolutely no complains or anything with. My Rebecca has been turned into a modern mini-me named Kamryn, and I use her outfit as another dress for Nellie. Rebecca's dress and boots fit very snugly on PM dolls, the boots don't go on over tights, or at least for me they didn't. I mainly just wanted to post this because of her hair and I know everyone has had different experiences with her hair. Her hair is thing but the huge curls make up for it and add the look of volume and thickness to it. I can brush her hair with a regular doll brush, and the curls don't come out. In fact, every time I brush her hair, her hair gets MORE curlier. It's almost so curly I don't even know what to do with it and I'm contemplated on straightening her hair. Overall though, she gets an A because I don't really see any flaws with her unless you don't like curly hair!

My Aunt bought these for me at the AGPLA and mailed them to me. I am in LOVE with them! My doll has been wearing them for a month now, just because she's so cute in them. My favorite part about them is the boots. They are so soft and I love all the details. I can't think of anything I don't like about this outfit!

I love little Grace! She's so cute! She's well made too and I think she's really soft. I kind of wish she came with a collar, or a toy or something else though.

I just got this set and I opened up Kit's camera, and it came broken. The lens was not attatched to the rubber coil thing. But AG is sending me a new set. Yay! And it's so delicate I'm scared to death of opening it!
The rest is down right adorable. So detailed and cute. I really liked the newspapers. I took one out and I can read it! There's enough of them for all my dolls to read! Everything is just so detailed. I love it. I would definatley recommend it, but not for young children. Maybe 10+.

I got this set with my new doll, #14, and it's all really cute and nice. My only complaint is that the studs are really hard to get in and out of her ears! And then I'm afraid of snapping them when I take them out. Does it get easier over time?

This outfit is ok. I got it with my #14 today. I like the shoes, pants, and headband. I think that the only way the pants are versatile is if a girl got her doll at AGP and got an exlcusive shirt to go with, the doll could wear it with the legging-pants and the flats. I did that with my purple B&B shirt. The dress is hard to get on and off and my doll was probably crying as I tried to pull it off her head. I might use it again, but not often. I'm not sure how versatile it is, maybe over some jeans and with the pink flats it would be cute? I don't know.
Overall; C+

I just got my #14 today! She has such a sweet face! I love her to pieces.
Her hair color is beautiful and in some lighting it's black, others it's dark brown. It's much shorter than I thought though, and it is layered. I'm a little upset, but hopefully it won't be too much of a problem! Her eyes are a pretty periwinkle blue and I love them.
Overall- A- (A- because of hair disappointment)

My mini Rebecca is so cute! I got her at Borders today so Mia can have her own doll. She (and I!) love her to pieces! The book is really cute, but seems to have less pages than other mini doll books...IMO....unless it's just been awhile. And I love her little shoes and hairclip! Her hair stays down nice and she has soft hair- I love it. A+

I actually wanted Jess and her world as soon as I saw her because of the bright summery and fun colors! I love Jess's meet set. The pieces are so versatile. The top goes great with jeans or shorts and I like matching tanktops with the skirt. And I have to say it- those underwear are too cute!

Oh, the joy of lugging this box around NYC in the middle of December after leaving AGPNY. :] Actually, I carried my shopping bags and my step dad carried the box, but let's get onto the review. :]
I love this set! It's my only piece of furniture but I love it anyways. The blanket and pillow sit on Jess's bed with Toshi and I usually put other stuff on the swing. Though my cats had fun with this and the edges of the fabric are torn. Sigh.
But it is a great set! My batteries died and I have no idea what kind this swing takes.

I love everything about these! I knew I couldn't get a lot for CHristmas but I made sure my mom knew how much I wanted these, and she actually got them for me! Even though they were the only AG thing I got, I am still thrilled with them! They are nice to feel and Nellie has been wearing them since Christmas! The slippers are really cute too, my modern girls are definatley going to be sneaking these from Nellie... :] A+

Price: $18 Grade: A I ordered this set the day it was released along with Ginger, because I wanted the older one. But I figured, I'll just get the new one since it's really the same. You get three adorable x-rays (Heart of Gold, Butterflies In her Stomach, and Paws-a-tive attitude) and a progress chart and an envelope to put those in, a purple flower cone for her neck, a shot of love, a pink flower ice pack, and an ace bandage. All of these are really really cute and I can see so many play possibilities with this! Pictures Coming Soon! But here is the official picture:

I love and own all the kitties, so of course I bought Ginger the day she was released. I just recieved her today and she is pure sugar and cute! She is softer then all of my other AG pets including Licorice and Coconut. I like the collar way more then Licorice's black ribbon too.
The book is neat, but I have no idea what to do with it. I'll probably give it to my future doll, Ginger's future owner. :] I'll post pictures soon.

I love this sweatshirt! It is made from a light blue/purple material and has a patch star on the hoodie. It can be difficult to get on but then sometimes it's easy to get on. It usually depends on how awake I am. xD
I love how the pocket is real! Marisol sometimes sticks her cell phone in it, or other little knicknacks. I wear sweatshirts in the summer since our house is always freezing, so this will see a lot of use from my dolls! A+

First Version
I simply adore all AG pets, and I have a bunny too. When I found out Nutmeg was going to be released I immediatley wanted him! Nutmeg is a cute little plush bunny (plush like Kirsten's kitties, not like Coconut) with a basket bed with woven ribbons and a little pillow with his name on it inside. I also love the carrots, my dolls love to feed Nutmeg is carrots!

I'm not a big fan of pink but I am so glad I ordered these pajamas! :] They are so soft and my Julie looks so cute in them, she's been wearing them for a few days now! A+ since I really can't say enough nice things about them.

I recieved Julie as a late Christmas present last year, around Februaryish. She is so pretty, her hair is still silky smooth and soft and her hair is still in the original braid too. (I don't want to take it out!) I fell for her after reading her books because her parents divorced, and it was such a great feeling to know I finally had a doll who came from a story I can really relate too since my parents divorced. I love her face mold, but that's because I own almost all dolls with the Josefina mold since Marisol was my first and all-time favorite. (All I'm missing is #28, Elizabeth, and Chrissa)
Her outfit is cute, versatile, and includes of many pieces. Jeans that my modern girls can wear, a nice long sleeve shirt my dolls can wear alone or under T-shirts, and then the white shirt that can go over some plain colored long sleeve shirts. Her sandals are really cute too!
I also have her meet accessories and I love to have her wear them with her meet outfit!

I've wanted this outfit for so long, and I finally found it secondhand! My set only has the pants, shirt, jacket, and sandals. These pieces are so easy to mix and match! I love Coconut too, so this is a great outfit for the girls to wear when they take her outside for a walk. A+

I got my Licorice in 2006, I think. My aunt lives in California, not far from AGPLA. And when she travels for work, sometimes she goes through LA and visits AGPLA. She picked up Licorice for me and mailed her to me too! She was a great surprise, and so soft too! She came with the black ribbon-like collar, a pink toy, her bed, and a cute fuzzy sticker!
My first Licorice from Borders came with a book too. Though I've heard the Borders version doesn't contain a magnetic mouth...mine does!
A+ for both the AG version and Borders version!

I got Coconut for Christmas of 2005, because my mom thought it was silly to buy Coconut's 'dog' house and sleepover set for Licorice and Rascal. Since, Coconut is a puppy and Licorice and Rascal are cats. Lol! I love Coconut, she is so sweet and soft. Mine is the lightweight version.

I bought this in 2005 when all I had was Marisol and Licorice and Rascal. This and Coconut's house. I love this set to pieces, and since it was one of the first accessory sets I bought for my first doll's pets, it's one of my favorite pieces from AG. A+. I love all the pieces, they're too cute! This works great for Coconut, Licorice, Rascal, and probably the new dogs and cat that are soon to be released.

Grade: B Price: $15
I wouldn't pay $15 for a T-shirt. But I bought mine for $4 at a Thrift store.
For an XL size, it's pretty short. I wear a white tank top or long sleeve shirt underneath so it's OK. I like the logo on it, and it matches the dolly shirt in every way, even the shortness of it!

Grade: A+ Price: $12 (But I got it free with stars)
This is a very cute set, I bought with my stars in 2006 when I was a club member. The girl's neclace is about sixteen inches long and closes with a clasp. The charm on both is red, and says "American Girl Club" with a silver bead on each side.
The doll's neclace probably half the length of the girls', and closes with a magnet. It's pretty sturdy too. And as far as I'm aware, this does not stain the doll's neck!

Oh! I have a bunch of these on my bracelet! I got all of these for free by earning stars.
Club bracelet and charm: I love these! Grade A+ When you spin the little circle on the charm you can see 'AG Club' on it.
Marisol Girl of 2005 Charm: This was the first charm I got because I was simply in love with Marisol. On the charm, you have a rectangular charm with '2005' and a pink gem, and on the back it says 'Marisol'. Then there is a ballet slipper and a music note. The details are beautiful! A+
Jess Girl of 2006 Charm: I got this shortly after because I rcently got Jess at the time, back in 2006. On here, it has three dangle charms as well. A bar that has a pink gem and 2006 on it, with Jess on the back, A little palm tree, and a cirlce with a orage and pink design on it. A+
American Girl Determination Charm: I got this with my stars, because it was the 'determination' charm. I got it because at the time, I was facing many challenges such as my parent's divorce, and our 'almost-move' to a different state and losing all the things we owned. It really cheered me up. Plus it's my favorite color- BLUE! A+
Then I also have the kit charm and the Samantha and Nellie locket, but since they are already reviewed I won't review them.

Grade: A I like these pajamas a lot, but I bought them on sale for eight dollars. I wouldn't pay full price, because these feel very thin and cheap. Plus the book is horrible. But for eight, they aren't that bad. Very good deal.

This dress is easily one of my favorite outfits made by AG. But the sleeves get all poofish, and sometimes they un-velcro. But it doesn't usually happen a lot. The hair bow is fail. My clip even snapped on mine. So I use a perty pink ribbon instead. :] The shoes are ok, but, heels? And I don't know how acurate these shoes would be for a ten year-old in 1904, but I'm not an expert. So I'm not sure. My grade is a solid: A

Grade: A
Eyes: I absolutely love American Girl's hazel eyes. I myself have hazel eyes, and Mia's look gorgeous!
Hair: I love her hair to bits, but of the reason she has a sold A, is because after I took the braid out, she has more hair in the front and it falls into her face. I'll get a picture of this.
Outfit: LOVE. ;D
Her shoes and underwear are sadly, the best parts of this outfit IMO. I love converse, own three pairs, and now I need a turquoise pair! Her skirt is tight on her, and hard to pull up. Her sweater is tight on her too, but I honestly think I rather, have a fat doll since she can barely wear any other clothes. The tights are great, but I prefer white.
The skirt is the other reason why she has a sold A. Great Doll! I simply love LEs!
