Mini Doll - 25th Anniversary Edition (RETIRED)

I got this mini to use as a "Samantha doll" for my 18" AG. I originally had one of the early-ish painted-eye minis from 2004, and this doll is cuter, she has a brighter skin tone and better facial screening. The two Samantha dolls were the same height unlike my 2 Josefinas, where the holiday mini was a half inch taller. While I like this more festive version, it's not like the cranberry dress is exactly a stunner. I agree with the previous reviewer that the dress is a bit too long in this scale. Still I'm glad to have her, she's a great prop for holiday photos of Amanda. I'd rate her a B+
