I fell down the rabbit hole of these adorable tiny dolls in April and I'm continuing to slide. Buying them on the secondary market as I've had to, I wanted to know what was available. Also, I didn't want to keep buying the same ones, so I put together some lists and charts for just the figures since that's mainly what I'm interested in. Collector Series 1 - 8 dolls Collector Series 2 - 6 dolls Gold Series Collector dolls - 3 dolls Uptown Style - 3 dolls Downtown Style - 3 dolls Sporty Style - 3 dolls Dolls that came in building sets: Mia - 1 doll Nicki - 1 doll Lanie - 1 doll Kanani - 1 doll McKenna - 3 dolls: 2 McKennas and Toulane Saige - 5 dolls: 3 Saiges, Gabi and Tessa (Tessa was a Kohl’s exclusive.) Isabelle - 3 dolls: 2 Isabelles and Louisa Grace - 8 dolls: 4 Graces, Ella, Maddie, Sylvie and Director? Lea - 3 dolls: 2 Leas, Camilla Luciana - 3 dolls: 2 Lucianas, Ella Kit - 1 doll Julie - 1 doll Samantha - 2 dolls: Samantha and Nellie Maryellen - 2 dolls: Maryellen and Angela Outdoor Music Festival - 4 dolls Advent Calendar - 2 dolls I added it up to 67 different dolls. Did I leave any out? I enjoy playing around on the computer, so I've put together a couple of collector charts for the dolls just for fun. I enjoy checking them off as I get them. If anyone spots any mistakes or missing information in the charts, I'd like to know so I can update them. Clicking through to Flickr will bring up larger photos. GOTY Mega Construx dolls by Dawn Smith, on Flickr Mega Construx Wellie Wishers by Dawn Smith, on Flickr I'll add charts for the other figures as I get them done. Since the dolls are so easy to mix and match, I wanted to know what parts were available. I didn't list all the sources for each wig, etc... Mega Construx American Girl Wig Styles by Dawn Smith, on Flickr Mega Construx American Girl Shoe Styles by Dawn Smith, on Flickr I also found a good list of the AG building sets by year here if anyone is interested.

`Their clothes come off and are nicely made. At my house Neela is Tía Dolores to my Mini Josefina. Mini Josefina and Tía Dolores by Crazyquilter, on Flickr I think Cécile looks like Mini Caroline's mother and I plan to dress her accordingly. I haven't decided yet if Ninuk will be Mini Kaya's mother or her friend. When I first got Neela, I put Blythe in her outfit. I don't remember if I tried any of the Blythe clothes on her, but if they fit they are widely available. I should try and see. I never bonded with Blythe, but I do like her clothes.

Here is my Josefina, sent to me years ago by a dear online friend because I didn't have an AG. She was my only big AG until I won Kirsten this year from the Doll Wardrobe blog. Here she is in an old photo of the first AG swap I made. It was for a Kit doll. Sewing with Mini Josefina and Sara. Playing in the shade of the tomatoes with friends. Modeling matching skirts made for my granddaughter and her little friends. Showing Kirsten around the farm. As you can see, my Josefina is a very sociable sort and rarely has her photo taken alone.

The first thing that I noticed about mini Cécile was how soft her hair is. I'm afraid that may make it a little harder to manage in the long run. The curls are rather boisterous, but can be positioned for display with judicious placement of a straight pin. Of course that won't work for play. The details on her dress are really well done and I love the deep teal color. The skirt could have been a little fuller. I think she will look good with her hair pulled back, too, if the curls get too wild. I would say A for display, but maybe B for a play doll. Here is my Mini Cécile with the hat I made for her. *mod edit to remove member's dead image link*

I have a friend who made her a comb from a piece of a small person-sized comb that she cut with pliers.

What color is the fringe on the shawl? It looks like it is gray in the photos. Also, I'm wondering if the shawl is a triangle? How big is it?

I like seeing all three mini Kirsten's together. Here is a photo of mine that arrived today. Now I am itching to try and make her winter woolens. I think AG did a great job on this mini doll. The clothing fits better than the regular mini Kirsten, especially the sleeves. I just wish her bangs were a little better behaved. They are much better than the old pie bangs, but still a little unruly and maybe a tad long. I give her an A for this reason instead of an A+.

Just as I was trying to take photos of Mini Addy, it started to rain. I'll have to try again tomorrow. She just arrived yesterday. I think they did a great job on her dress. Yes, it could be a little fuller, but I really like it. It seems that there was some concern about length. My Addy's pantalets show just a little below the dress. I also tied Mini Addy's waist ribbon tighter. That's why the buttons appear off a bit. I didn't notice until after the photo that I had made the front a bit off skew when I tightened the ribbon. As for the taffeta, I would rather have an in-scale plaid with cotton than a too-large scale taffeta. That may have been the only choices. Even AG has to go with what fabrics are available, I'm guessing, for these mini dolls. They may be able to have fabrics made in a large quantity, but these are limited edition dolls. I am amazed that they are able to get in all the details, down to the little bows on the sleeves.

My mini Addy didn't come with buttons on her dress. I will have to find some and add them. Here she is with her meet accessories that I made her.
