On a brand new Julie doll, it was noticed that an imprinted star was put on Julie's foot. Julie was backordered for a bit, so it seems like she will be the first doll with this new foot design, and it might be on all dolls going forward.

It kind of reminds me of the Build-a-Bear paw print on Build-a-Bears only for American Girl.
If Julie is getting backordered, then it appears there aren't many Julie dolls in stock. I wonder why. Maybe this is because she is getting cubed? Julie has not had anything new released in her collection in a while. I feel like American Girl has been ignoring the historicals, including Julie and Claudie. Or could this because of manufacturing issues?
The star printed on the foot is actually adorabl!😊
ooh! it's almost like a tattoo! :o
My opinion, the star isn't necessary. I really wish that American Girl would reconsider where the tag placement on the doll body should or could be.. I would like if they moved it lower on the body where underpants would cover it or even on the back side of the bottom area. I myself won't cut off my tags but it looks really silly if you have the tag hanging out of swimsuits or cropped tops.I like how Maplelea labels all dolls and clothing with the name of the outfit.
