(this doll was retired/revised in 2013) Grade: A- I think this Bitty Baby is adorable. She definitely reflects the cuteness that make babies so great. Her face is sweet and has great coloring. Mine is named Bitty. I really like the shape of her body. She lays in such cute positions that look like real baby positions. Her body isn't too stuffed which gives her more posability and makes getting clothes on her easier. The downside is how incredibly easily her head scuffs. Bitty spends most of her time on my bed pillows, and unfortunately the movement I make on my bed causes her head to scuff when it touches the wall. I haven't tried to remove it. Fortunately she looks very cute in a hat which covers her scuffs well.

This is the best close-up I have of Nellie since I don't live with her anymore. She seems to suffer from a ribbon-in-face problem. It's not too bad in this picture.

This item was released in 2004 and retired in 2008 with the first archival of Samantha's collection. The brush and mirror in this set were previously part of Samantha's Travel Accessories, reviewed HERE.
This beautiful wedding cake comes with a traditional bride and groom topper. Special slots in the top layer hide six tiny charms on ribbons. Includes a souvenir wedding invitation and a fancy mirror and brush for last-minute primping.I give this set a B. While I do prefer other plastic consistencies AG has used for food, I accept the hard plastic this cake is made out of because of its sheer size. It needs to be hollow not to weigh too much. However, they could have used better accenting than making it part of the cake mold. The flowers on the cake are the same quality as all of AG's flowers, and the doily is a basic paper doily. The cascading flowers are bendable so they can be arranged how you please. The bride and groom topper is quite cute as are the charms. The thing I'd most like to see different is an easy way to remove the metal charms. They would be pulled out of a real cake, but with this cake you have to lift the top layer off to get the charms out. Kind of takes the fun out of having the dolls pull them out. Very neat idea, though! The brush and mirror are the same as the ones in Samantha's travel accessories, and they are the same as the ones that come with the 3-in-1 bed except that those are a different finish. They are a decent size for pretend play, but of course the brush is not made for use on the doll hair. It could help tuck stray hairs in like a toothbrush does. The invitation is similar to other such documents from AG. It reads: Mr. and Mrs. Horace Pitt request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter
