Version II was in the last aisle of an antique mall when I saw this on a shelf. It's only one chair, but I love how they used to sell single chairs for the table sets. It's great quality and craftsmanship, very sturdy. I like the size. The doll fits her whole rump on the seat and doesn't slide off. The heart is cute.

I think I got this one at Kohl's in 2017. There are only 6 in this series. I own #5. She looks just like Grace with her hair switch. It's the same hair, not sure if the eyes match. The base is orange rather than white.

I have also acquired Figures 1, 2, and 7. 1 has an extra hairstyle as her accessory. She looks like a completely different doll when you switch the style. 2 has a different skirt. I don't think it looks as good as the blue one. 7 also has a different skirt. Her hairstyle is adorable.

Trunk

I never imagined I would own this. And it's not even the full trunk! I found the base in a thrift store near school one day. I had a concert that evening so couldn't buy it. I hoped it would be there the next day and it was! I took it home on the train and bus and probably looked quite a sight. It was $20 and was the AG version. I like that it holds so much. I have nearly 50 outfits, hats, shoes, and even Lindsey's Scooter and Laptop in it. Since I don't have the bed or lid, I have a little more extra space. I got the bunk beds to act as a topper and it works out well. The trunk is sturdy, but does nick easily.

I love the little historical school supplies. I got this in Fall 2004. It has two real working mini pencils! The report card is so fun to read- I love that it's printed inside!

I purchased my set in Fall 2004. The tin has definitely tarnished, being in storage for 10 years. I usually store the food wrapped in the napkin in the tin. I love the deviled egg. That is my favourite part- I love eggs!

Samantha wore her gray flannel dress with its snappy bow tie to school. It has a pleated skirt and placket front, both top-stitched in white. Six buttons march down the front, and white collar and cuffs add finishing touches. It comes with a wide black satin hair ribbon. SSO $18 This description comes from an early 90's catalog. I purchased my outfit in Fall 2005, and it came with the same things at a slightly higher price. I believe my set cost $22 or $24. The color is a nice charcoal gray. The cuffs have velcro so as to fit over Sam's hands. The velcro on the cuffs and back however, is the thick, snagging velcro. Take care when Sam is wearing tights or her hair is in the way. My 2005 version fits my Mattel 2005 Sam perfectly. I roll the blouse over the skirt so the top is poofy like in old catalogs where I've seen similar girls' dresses. It isn't flannel, but feels like a thick stiff cotton (or linen?). The hair ribbon is definitely wide. It can be difficult to get looking perfectly, but is at least easy to tie in a bow. I have not taken the extra stitching out of the pleats as I do not want them to be "wild". I do think the dress is of good quality and will stand up to play. It is nice that it can be used for a variety of scenarios/seasons. I love that the color is neutral. I believe you can still find this for relatively cheap on Ebay. A LOT were sold over the years. The outfit is quintessential Samantha, a classic. A

Found him at Marshall's for $7.99. There were quite a few more than I expected to see hanging there for sale. I just got him for collectors sake. I'm as much of a completist as I can afford and I have barely anything from Lea's collection for her! When I took him out of the package I found out that he is so adorable! He is a cute little dude that's just chilling here with me. His "fur" is soft and smooth. A high quality stuffed animal. His front arms really flop around. photos.app.goo.gl/RoaJSIvWzFQfXFL72

Pictures are here due to Google Photos being more temperamental with links if I rearrange the pictures in the album. Let's see if this works. photos.app.goo.gl/B8JcydjgKAyooi802Retailing for $28, Tenney's Picnic Set is my first anything from her collection. I got it at Kohl's at full price with a gift card from a couple years ago. I went to Nashville multiple times a year during high school so I grew to love it and know it before it arrived on all of those "Must Visit" lists and the style of this collection just gets me. It includes a blanket, tray, menu, napkin, fork, watermelon, chicken in tray, potato salad, and sweet tea. The colors of the blanket match her motif perfectly and I can picture her on Centennial Park's lawn on a cool spring day enjoying this meal! It is much larger than Saige's blanket. The tray is light cardboard and the chicken will not fit on either side, but everything else will. It has the logo on the side. I love those details. The logo is also on the potato salad, which can double as mac and cheese or whatever you think of to play. It's my favourite food from this set. The napkin is cloth, which I love love love that it's not paper. The menu is printed on the inside with food options. The fork is the standard AG metal fork. The watermelon and chicken are cute, but the former is a little more unrealistic than the latter. I don't know who cuts watermelon in that shape. AG apparently. The chicken does come out of its tray. My only actual issue with this set is the very shoddy quality of the sweet tea. Designed to look like a mason jar of tea, mine has weird white splotches at the bottom seam of the plastic. I can assume glue, and would normally brush this issue off, but it really detracts from the way the plastic is meant to look like glass and be continuously clear. Overall I love this set and want to give it an A. But for my experience I will give it a solid B+.

I love the single figure I have. She is adorable and sits on my computer smiling and keeping me company. I got her at K-Mart for just over $3. She is #4. Her change of clothes is a different skirt.

This is a standard store t-shirt. I got this at Scottsdale. It is $10. The tag lists it as SCO STAR TEE 2016. It is white with little berry-colored foil stars making the outline of a big star. It fits well.
