Trivia

 * Kirsten is portrayed with bangs and has been since release; however, at the time bangs were not fashionable for most girls and other girls shown in her series do not have bangs. The theory is that rather than change the wig dramtically for newly designed dolls, she was given the same type of hair style as Samantha Parkington and Molly McIntire.
