This is one of my most recent AG purchases (actually a gift) so I figured of all the stuff I have to review, I'll review Molly first.
I received Molly for Christmas 2012 so I've had her for a little over a month or so now. I can't believe it took me so long to get her, she was always one of the dolls I wanted the most. Well now that I finally have her, I can say that the wait was well worth it!
Molly may appear kind of plain or even a bit mousy on the pages of the catalog but once you bring her home and get her out of her box, she looks soooo much cuter and prettier IRL. One of the first things that attracted me to her was her eyes. They are such a soft, lovely shade of gray! Some Molly dolls may have more of a green or blue tint to their eyes, but mine are about as pure of a gray as you can get. I really wish there were more dolls with this eye color. The only other gray eyed doll AG still currently produces is Ruthie and I have every intention of getting her, too.
Her hair is very beautiful too, and appears to be pretty easy to care for. My Molly's braids were very neat and orderly and I only undid the braids just a couple of days ago. I was going to brush her hair but the waves that her braids make are so pretty that I decided to wait on brushing her hair. When I do brush her hair I shouldn't have too much trouble though, I didn't feel where it would tangle easily while I fluffed her hair out after I undid the braids.
She has a very sweet face and I love her little glasses. Did they change the shape of her glasses again? I know that most newer Molly dolls don't have perfectly round glasses, but aside from the nose piece still not curving up and having more of a natural shape, my doll's glasses are almost perfectly Harry Potter round in the frames. Either way, they're adorable and they have a nice snug fit on my doll too. I also like that there was a case for the glasses included even if you can't use it to wipe them clean.
There is a separate section to review the Meet outfit so I'll post my opinions on that later in that thread.
Overall though, I give Miss Molly an A+! I'll try to update later with a couple pictures of her.
