Released in 2000, retired in 2014 with release of revamped BeForever version of Kit. A Special Edition Birthday Collection version was released in 2023, which was a throwback to the original Mattel version, in honor of Kit's 100th birthday.
Your Kit doll arrives dressed in a lilac sweater set and floral linen skirt, with white cotton underwear and white sandals. Kit is 18 inches tall and has a huggable, soft body with arms and legs you can pose. Her bright blue eyes open and close, and she has a sprinkling of freckles across her nose! Pull her shoulder-length blond hair off her forehead with a barrette in a double-diamond shape.
Kit Doll & Book
$87 QDP Kit Doll & Paperback Book
Grade A+
This set includes the 18" Kit doll, her beautiful meet outfit which consists of a lavender sweater set, a pleated skirt, cotton undies, and white canvas sandals.The book "Meet Kit" is also included.
Kit is a wonderful doll. I believe Kit would make a very good choice for any young girls' first doll because her cute bob haircut is so easy to care for.
Kit is absolutely adorable with her deep blue eyes and her pretty freckled face. Kit's eyes are a deep, beautiful, almost aqua shade of blue.
Kit's blonde bob is shiny and full of body and bounce. When you brush it, it just springs right back into place. She can wear hats well without messing up her pretty hair-do.
My Kit's hair really does not seem long enough to try any different hairstyles, so if styling hair is very important to you, you may want to consider another doll.
"Meet Kit" is a great book, but you should really read her entire collection to get a good feel for her character.
I love that her books are set during the 1930's. My Grandma was Kit's age in the 1930's too. I love to compare notes with my Grandma. According to Grandma, life was a lot different in the deep south during the depression.
Kit has a lot of lessons to teach, and her books are well worth reading, which just makes the Kit doll all the more lovable.

I am fortunate enough to have a new Kit (2005) and an older Kit. (2000-2001?- Thank you Denise)
The newer Kit has much harder vinyl with a very matte feel.
The older Kit has softer vinyl with a smoother feel to it.
The newer Kit has slightly longer hair. Her face also seems longer, but I am sure this is just an illusion due to the hair.
I love both of my Kits. You can not go wrong with either one.
