ABC NEWS... thank you... and to all those who understand the power of the AMERICAN GIRL DOLLS...
People get ready... the BETCHES are BACK!
American Girl is turning 35 and to celebrate they’re reintroducing their six original dolls. Samantha Parkington, Kirsten Larson, Molly McIntire, Felicity Merriman, Addy Walker and Josefina Montoya are back in their iconic outfits with their authentic accessories in a special anniversary collection.
Samantha, Kirsten and Molly were the dolls to start it all when they debuted in 1986. These historic characters were followed by Felicity, Addy and Josefina, who were introduced in the 1990s, and all six of them were later retired.
Collectors and young American Girl fans will be thrilled to see these original heroines dressed in their signature outfits. The 18-inch dolls will come packaged in a retro-inspired American Girl box and will include the first paperback book in the character’s series.
In addition to the classic characters, there’s also a new inspirational book, “Everything I Need to Know I Learned from American Girl” and a digital album “American Girl Get Up and Dance,” which includes songs inspired by American Girl characters. Fans of all ages are invited to a Facebook Live birthday bash and a cupcake decorating party on May 8th with Bobbie Lloyd, chief baking officer at Magnolia Bakery.
