Nethilia, The Admin May 4, 2021 / 35th Anniversary Special Edition First Six Historical Characters For the 35th Anniversary of American Girl, the company has released Special Edition Anniversary dolls of the first six Historical Characters titled the 35th Anniversary Collection: Felicity Merriman, Kirsten Larson, Josefina Montoya, Addy Walker, Samantha Parkington, and Molly McIntire. The bundles are intended to evoke the older styles of the characters at their original releases (in the case of Kirsten, there are almost no changes at all). A bundle includes the doll in the first released versions of their Meet Outfits, first styles of meet accessories, the first edition parchment style of meet books and an older-style box modified with visibility window and logo image on front. The first five also have the first edition thin-style eyebrows as opposed to newer-style feathered brows and all six have neck strings; the dolls come with a pamphlet about the 35th anniversary. Total cost for a collection is $150. Because of the designs replicating the first release looks and materials used in the process (while staying within US current toy regulations), the Special Edition dolls cannot be shipped outside of the US.

Consider the Following...

Characters such as Addy Walker, Kaya'aton'my, and Josefina Montoya have had panels to advise on character accuracy--as well as modern ones like Joss Kendrick and Kira Bailey! Jess McConnell was the first Girl of the Year to be explicitly called so. Before then the characters were advertised as a limited part of the American Girl Today line. The Violin and Stand is one of the longest lasting Truly Me accessories; it's been available since it was released in 1996. That's nearly twenty-five years! The Portfolios of Pastimes included the option for a half- or full-year subscription--as well as a unique introduction kit with a craft apron. Innerstar University was an interactive website focused on the Just Like You line that lasted from 2010 to 2015. Dolls came with codes to register full accounts for play, while accompanying game books offered a fourteen-day registration.
