I am so happy with my Rebecca. I'm thrilled that she has the Josefina mold, which I like considerably more than the classic mold. I am a bit concerned about her thin wig and her curls; I worry that I will mess them up. I have to steel myself to not touching her hair!
Rebecca's meet outfit is really pretty! I bought her school outfit too, but I don't want to take her out of this jaunty red dress. I'm thankful that the sleeves are lined; I've had bad experiences with dolls getting stained by AG's red items.
After reading the reviews on this thread, I decided not to take out my Rebecca's barette. It does look nice in her hair, but it is clearly pretty cheap plastic.
Rebecca has the standard Molly/Emily/Samantha/Kit underpants. We will probably never learn why she and her fellow dolls put their undies on outside their tights.
Here's Rebecca with Nellie. Same face mold, but I think they look quite different from one another.
It's hard to see in this picture, but it was clear to me that Samantha's middy boots are a different color than Rebecca's. Samantha's are a true white, whereas Rebecca's are more of an eggshell color.
Rebecca is a lovely doll, but she really doesn't look like the book illustrations. In fact, her cousin Ana looks more like the doll, with its lighter-colored hair.
Unlike others on this thread, I am a total beginner when it comes to fussing with doll curls. I returned Nicki because I couldn't deal with her hair. I managed to get Rebecca looking a bit better- when I got her, the curls on her left side were tightly coiled, but the ones on the right were looser and more sparse. She does look better now, but I do wish I knew how to do banana curls like katieshc.
Grade: A-
