bad news. There is rumor going around that AG is going to retire Kirsten!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Click HERE. And scroll down, there is even a letter from AG saying that it is going to happen. I e-mailed AG but this is the answer I got back:

First we all thought it was Molly and Emily. But now it's actually Kirsten. Why does it have to be from the ORIGINAL collection. In case you don't know who was a part of that collection it Molly, Kirsten, and Samantha. It's just so horrible! They have a Jewish doll, an Indian doll, an African American doll, an Asian doll, an English doll, and Plenty of American dolls. So do they think they need a new Irish doll? But why would they replace A PIONEER, ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE TO THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Jasmine,
ReplyDeleteI know it's sad--I nearly cried! But have you heard that they might be bringing all the archived dolls out for the 25th anniversary? :D
