I just got the performance outfit. I believe that the material and velcro do not go together. With the type of material the skating dress is made of it is extremely easy to snag with the velcro. American Girl should know by now that this type of material snags easily and that they should put snaps on it and not velcro. Other outfits that easily snag from velcro include the 1st soccer top, blue ice skirt and others that I can't name at the moment.
So handle this outfit very carefully and make sure the material doesn't get stuck in the velcro. I will probably change the velcro to snaps so this outfit will not get ruined with snags.

This item is associated with the book, Molly's Surprise. It was introduced in 1994 and retired in 2005.
There were few televisions in 1944, so families gathered around the radio for news and entertainment. You can listen in just like the McIntires did on Christmas Day. Press the red button to hear snippets from actual World War Two era shows. There’s even a special message from Captain McIntire!
I just discovered that I bought the first version of Molly's radio that actually picks up AM stations. It is also bigger than the later version.
Has anyone every heard of this type of radio?? I was just curious because in the doll pages for Molly it didn't even show this radio as the first version.
I would love to hear how rare this rare is. I have sent pictures of the old version of Molly's radio to Sail-Away. I don't know how to post pictures to the board. Hopefully she will be able to upload them for others to see this sweet radio.
Older version dimensions are 4 7/8" X 3 1/2" X 1 1/2" New version dimensions are 3 1/2" X 2 1/2" x 1 1/2"
So far I have gotten 2 stations to come in. I live in a rural area where any type of reception is spotty so I would think in an urban area many stations would come in on the radio.
