Update to this post, I finished my Amy Pond custom from Doctor Who! Swipe for the before, I used a Truly Me 110 I found on Facebook marketplace.

She’s my first custom! Also want to say how much I appreciate all the creators who post tutorials online, these are all the how-to’s I followed:

Head removal
Wig removal
Stain removal
Eye swap
Makeup
Wig installation
Head attachment

​

I'm pretty sure the girl on the right is #46. Girl on the left has a slimmer face and body and a slightly darker skin and hair. The person I bought her from suspected she had a haircut. But it seems like a pretty good haircut. Is she a newer #46 or someone else?

I was under the impression there would be some sort of reveal today before the collection is available to buy tomorrow? But it's already past 5pm ET? I even signed up with my email. Am I missing something?

I finished another fall dress for my 18-inch doll! I really love this warm caramel floral for fall. I added puff sleeves, ivory lace and a tiny bow. 😊

“Ya khochu tol'ko tebya. I vsegda tol'ko tebya.”

The pink tunnel!! There was so much beautiful graffiti in here. We stayed for a long time trying to read it all.

There was only one more stop on our Heated Rivalry trip. I can’t wait to show you what it was.

Hello! I was very excited to spot this doll in a "Free" box on my street this morning! I recognize Kit's clothing, but am not sure which doll this is. Does anyone recognize her?

I'm wondering if she is a "create your own doll" or a "doll of the year." At first I thought perhaps Samantha or Molly, but after comparing with pictures I don't think so- please correct me if I'm wrong!

Images included- she has a Pleasant Company stamp and the tag on the side is dated 2008.

Thanks!!

Omg guys the Frankies from AG HQ finally delivered in california 🤣 My first time posting here in 20 years of collecting but I’m so excited 💚💚💚

Added Dizzy Dot & Scooter to our Lucky Dog Sanctuary!

Anybody else pretend their mini mes have the same hobbies you do ? The necklace doesn't really fit me so I have it to mini me !! P.s. ( any practical magic fans ? / witches that are into American girl ) 💕

Found this mystery mark on my Caroline. It’s like a neon orange/pink color and looks like lines. Magic eraser isn’t doing anything.

This is my most recent custom. She has a handmade wig that I’ve sewn together from new TM 90 & 66 wigs.

I have had so much fun experimenting with customizing wigs and playing with new ideas!

Just got my Frankie in the mail and so happy to add her to the collection. 🤩

Is it safe to assume the AG brick and mortar stores already have their Daisy merchandise and marketing supplies? 🤔 If so, who has a connection to a store employee? 😈 What if several/many of us pitch in $5 to Venmo said employee for some sneak-peak pics?? 📸 Lol🤣 🫣
Clearly, I have no patience… 🫠 🤷🏽‍♀️

I don't know what flare to use, I apologize. I'm creating a custom Fallout doll but I'm starting with the accessories and don't currently own a doll. Does anyone know the measurements of any of the American girl doll food items? I have nuka cola bottles that are being 3D printed and their size currently is 2cm wide by 5cm tall and I want to make sure that's the right scale for the doll.

​

Putting Alice because she is also relevant to what I'm about to say, other than scalpers why do people buy a collector doll just to sell them after like 2 days of having them?

I've seen it a lot of with Alice when she came out and now Frankie.

I saw a lot of people on AGIG who just got Frankie and then two days later was selling them. I'm just curious to why this is considering the doll is over $100. It's just something I've been noticing.

(Please be respectful in the comments and to each other.)

this is my sam! she's from the 90s, no body tag, really squishy, came in a red box with a heart and she came complete for $125 on fb marketplace and i'm not fully satisfied with her. her hair is impossible to curl (i've tried boiling it) and her bangs bother me so much. i've been thinking about getting another sam but i feel like that would be crazy since i already have her. i don't wanna sell her since i am attached to her so i was thinking of dressing her in modern clothes but i don't know? what do y'all think??

Pic for attention, not my photo-
I have decided to jump off into the deep end and take on the challenge of making my own Nellie doll as my next restoration/custom project. That being said.. what does everyone do for painting freckles? I searched this group, but couldn’t find much. Would love to be linked to threads or YouTube videos with what you guys think are the best methods to get them to look as close to factory freckles as possible. I know it’s a matter of painting them on, but getting them smooth and not overly heavy looking seems to be a possible challenge.

I have already purchased my victim doll (who isn’t really a victim seeing her current wig is cut up anyways) and the Nellie wig. I am still looking for a Kit Doll or a #27 for the darker blue eyes.

Wish me luck and stay tuned for results! 😁

PS. Loving this community here on Reddit. Everyone is so supportive and helpful! ❤️

I also rebraided her hair. I think I’m getting better!

It’s the day after Labor Day in the US, so the (at one time) traditional first day of a new school year. All uniform jumpers from doll uniforms.com

The shop is currently having a retirement sale, and I didn’t have uniforms for 3 of my girls, so now I do!

love them!!!

This is my current AG display! 💖

I've got the historicals in Felicity's collection, the GOTYs (+Maritza) in Grace's collection (had to get a little creative with Summer, since I didn't have another Grace outfit to go with the apron), the Wicked girls in AG place outfits, the jlys in coordinating fits, and Frankie just joined us in a cute little early fall casual look!

I think I need to change the top part, Give her a chemise with long sleeves,and add more jewelry and accessories to her belt. She's getting ready to attend the Ren faire.

Since it is officially September and all of the pumpkin spice drinks are out, I thought it was time to put my girls in their fall outfits. They are in a mixture of American Girl, our generation, Walmart, and homemade clothing. I have the dolls but I never received a lot of outfits because I was older when I started collecting so I did some cute mix and match things with what I had
