How much do I like this set? A lot. This is probably the most complete set AG has made to go with a meet outfit since the sets they put out in the 1990s with the 1990s meet outfits. It also works as a standalone set; many people in Orange County felt that way, as this is one of the better selling new items at the Santa Ana TRU.
You get:
-a sweater
-leggings
-headband
-wristlet
-pretend money
-pretend smartphone
-slides for pretend smartphone
-case for pretend smartphone
-library card
-another card
The sweater is a standard issue lightweight AG sweater with the star logo and a clear plastic bragtag. I'd say the knit is thinner than Kit's original sweater but has the same feel. The leggings are blue and have purple stitching up the sides that looks like a zipper. The headband is sparkly silver glitter and goes on the doll's head very well. The wristlet has a stretchy handle so it can be carried by dolls. What is really cool is it has several compartments in it that will hold the money and cards, and even the phone. It has a velcro closure. The phone is the same style as Z's phone: it has a part that pops up and you insert slides into it to make it look like it is working, just like with Z's phone. It has the same case with the handle on the back, so dolls can hold it. The pretend money and cards aren't much to look at, but they're there and well made.
In addition, the packaging is better than the earlier new packaging. I bought several of Gabriela and Z's items only to be disappointed at how they were boxed. This set has the new style box but the inside is older AG style: the clothing was wrapped in tissue paper and all the small pieces were wrapped in plastic, just like how AG used to do it with the old style boxes.
Hands down one of my favorite AG meet outfit accessory sets. It compliments the outfit well. Were I a parent I would buy it as well, just because all the pieces add to the outfit the doll comes with. MUCH more useful than the prior meet accessories which seemed like random bits put together.
ETA: my receipt from TRU says this set was $27.99
