American Girl has sent out a survey asking customers if they would purchase 3 kinds of 9-inch dolls. 9-inch dolls are bigger than mini-dolls but smaller than Bitty Babies and WellieWishers. If I'm not mistaken, the Girls of Many Lands line of dolls was 9 inches tall. Here are the possibilities:
-9-inch dolls based on famous young women such as Gabby Douglas, Selena Gomez, and Greta Thunberg
-9-inch dolls based on zodiacs and birthstones
-9-inch dolls that are teenage versions of Historical Characters
I don't really like any of the ideas. I like to imagine teenage Historicals, and having a story set in stone for them during that age period would ruin the imaginations of AG fans everywhere. Birthstones seem generic, and Barbie has a line of dolls based on famous women, so that line would feel like Barbie. What do you think?
I was curious about the size. I bought two 9 inch dolls representing the lead character in the Over the Moon movie. They are articulated so they sit and pose. They also came with accessories. I understand Sydney's concern. But I think 9 inch dolls could open up possibilities for the creation of scenes from the girl's futures. I also think that some who do not have the space for 18" dolls would enjoy 9 inch dolls.
I’m honestly not interested in any of them.
Zodiac sounds cool.
i don't really like the idea of 9 inch dolls. i would totally get a selena gomez doll though, i love selena!
When i first saw this post, i was imagining it like AG dolls but smaller. But if you are saying they are basically BARBIES, then WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT? AG dolls are special the way they are :(
