Oh man, I couldn't disagree more on Jess's meet outfit! I literally wore that whole thing in 2006 😂😂 I find that the last few girls of the year (Kira, Corinne, now Kavi) don't really represent the fashion trends of the time, whereas Marisol and Jess are quintessential 2005 and 2006.
I love my Luciana dearly, but her bangs drive me nuts. More often than not when I take her picture she looks like Doctor Blight from that "Captain Planet" cartoon.
Honestly, from what I understand about Marisol, her book mentioned a specific cultural type of dancing she did but her outfits never had anything to do with that outfit. She should have had that.
You could make leah(i hope im writing her name right-) into a gamer instead-its closest to influencer but more appropate for a 12 yr old girl, they could reference popular games targeted towerds that age group like zelda, sonic, mario ect, could even give her gaming items inspired by real life gaming items
One thing with some doll's besides girl of the year's is they have their hair done in such beautiful braids and i don't ever take them out. I wish American Girl didn't braid doll's hair because when your take out the meet braid it messes up their hair with it being all wavy and crumbed that it won't Go back to normal so i wish all dolls didn't have factory braids because for me i dont do anything with their hair when it has a nice beautiful braid in it.
I agree with Lindsey having longer hair then with Tenney being GOTY for 2017 and then wait for Gabriel to be girl of the year better devolved and Maybe with the Addy facemold. Now i have a theory with Z she was meant to be a girl of the year too they just released her at the same time as Tenney and Gabriel.
I have to agree with you on most of what you said. I was really sad that Gabriella story wasn't more fleshed out, at the time it is why I didn't go for her. Plus I was slowly collecting historicals, so GOTY were not on my radar until I tried to rescue a Mia, and I don't know what someone did to her wig but it was literally sheding apart, and I was offered the doll for very cheap. Finally I found her a "Mia" similar wig a few years back after her being bald for a while. Blaire really got me interested more into GOTY and I ordered her, and was delighted we shared a lot including the pale skin. My autoimmune actually dissolves the melamine in my skin so we match. I agree if we matched eye color it would be perfect mine is multicolored and changes with temperament and what I wear. I didn't get Joss so far because of the surf theme. Then they came out with World by us and I forgot about Joss. I too want an vision impaired GOTY, my PC dolls that have bubble eye or silver eye are mine for now. But I think it would be great to have one, and clear up the struggles and misconceptions around legal blindness. Perhaps work with NFB or one of the schools. There is a mirad of choices on differences.
Isabelle and Grace have the most nostalgia for me. I mostly clicked with Grace because my older sister had a Paris themed room during that time and she reminded me of her. Isabelle was girl of the year when I discovered AG so she has her own nostalgia. My first catalog she was in it. Edit: the Corinne outfit is very interesting. Saw it in person and it didn’t make it any better. I definitely do not like it.
I wish Chrissa and Sonali were switched! Sonali is so pretty and unique and she could've brought the mainline GOTY collection more much needed diversity sooner.
Mine if I jump in? Lindsey different meet outfit Kaylie ponytale Marisol different pants Jess different meet outfit Nicky nothing Lanie and lea too plane Kanani nothing McKenna didn't like her warm up outfit and I watched her movie and she was so mean to her tutor Sage didn't like her Ballon or sweater Isabell didn't like the extentions Grace nothing Gabby tbh not a fan of poetry Luci her baby sister should've been included Blair I thought her planning a wedding was weird tbh Joss didn't like her outfits and she was pretty mean in her little movies. Also side note the term hearing impaired is extreamly offensive to the D/deaf/HH community. I think Joss says hard of hearing in her movies. Kira Alex should've been included Corin don't like hair cover Kavi nothing
I want there to be an a doll with learning disabilities and a doll who loves archeology, paleontology, or volcanology.
Can you imagine if AG put out a cute little archaeology set!! Ahh I'd love that!
Same!! One day American girl will come out with a girl with a learning disability, one day 🥹
But can that day come sooner lol
@@scritch That would be so cool!
@@EmilyFitzmier I hope it comes sooner!
The big one is make them cheaper. There's no reason for a doll for kids to cost this much.

This was fun. Yes, I would love to see this video done with the historicals. Thanks for sharing!

Thankfully my Kailey has not turned orange! 😂❤
Ooh this should perform well! I’ve done videos on this topic and they’ve done well
Got the idea from you!

TBH Luciana had totally revamped the Girl of the year line although I've always been drawn to Carissa and her story
I 100% Disagree with Jess meet Outfit I Love the meet Outfit sooo much
I wish Chrissa and Sonali were switched! Sonali is so pretty and unique and she could've brought the mainline GOTY collection more much needed diversity sooner.
Kanani’s hair is way too long it drives my crazy! I keep trying to braid it but I’m bad at it
Kanani's bathing suit would have been fine if it weren't for the ugly shorts

Marisol different pants

Corin don't like hair cover
Kavi nothing
