American Girl Doll News

My name is Felicity. I just arrived in this house yesterday, with some other of my sisters, Kaya and Anna. A week ago, we and our other sisters Kit, Kailey and Samantha were in the closet, gathering dust. Then now, we are free! Me, Kaya, Anna and Kit came our old owner’s friend’s house. Her sister, our new owner, loves American Girl and is 9, so it’s perfect. Her best friend loves AG too. Well, me, Kaya and Anna came to stay. Our new owner already has a Kit doll, so her best friend got to keep our old sister and renamed her Riley after the girl from Girl Meets World. Kailey and Samantha are still at the “Emergency Hair Salon” at the old house, because they aren’t done yet. I think Kailey is coming to stay here and Samantha is going with the best friend because Ivy looks a LOT like Samantha. For proof: Yeah. That much. And the best friend thinks she has too many blondes. Bye! From, Felicity

There will be a LARGE PROTEST about BeForever and friend archiving tomorrow. Me and Ruthie created the Day of Pink (NOT THE DAY OF BEIGE ALL OVER AGAIN, ITS ABOUT BEFOREVER THIS TIME) because we needed a huge peak on the petition. We didn’t get any signatures in 3 days! We want to really show the world that its about friends and history, not too much pink and no point. It wont be a bunch of owners and dolls standing in front of the AG Headquarters, it will be a online protest. We will post something about the protest, you comment about why you don’t want BeForever, give us a link to your blog, and post something about the protest. If you have a Instagram, hashtag your photos with #agdayofpink2014. Make the caption about why you don’t want BeForever, and the photo of AG dolls holding signs about no BeForever (make sure they are wearing ALL pink!). You can also do a AGTube video about the protest, and have the thoughts about BeForever on the description Make sure you share it to SM Jean or sydneymadisonnetwork@gmail.com, so it can get counted. When the day is over, we will send all the thoughts over to American Girl by a email. Hope you do it, Saige

I don’t know why it took a day to post the website! Probally because I was so busy with 4th of July stuff. We have a lot to talk about! How Caroline survived the fireworks, when Kit touched a crab at the aquarium, when Ivy did silly disguises at the barbeque, even when Julie ate a hamburger, macaroni salad, potato chips and potatoes and still had room for 2 cookies! Now, lets move on. On the front page, I put a link to a site where you could find all the PBS affiliates email addresses. I put why Martha Speaks should be renewed, and even put a YouTube video of the best Martha Speaks episode, “Bye Bye, Burger Boy”! On the about page, I did a list of reasons why Martha Speaks should be renewed and even a letter template! It took 3 hours to make it, 1 hour for home, and 2 hours for about!

Hi. It’s me, Isabelle. Our owner is back from vacation (yay!) and now I am typing while my owner is sleeping. First of all, I saw on Trademarkia that they abandoned the trademark Emmy. So that can’t be the GOTY 2015’s name anymore. But they trademarked Shelby. I don’t think that Shelby is going to be the GOTY, as she is a Innerstar U character. But it might be because its the summer and guess when my name was trademarked? Last summer. And my name is so close to Isabel, which is a Innerstar U character. And add letters l and e to the end and you got Isabelle. And to the movie info: It is about a girl namedCoco who has to save her grandparent’s shop, and learns a lesson about family. Coco is the doll’s codename, which means it’s not the doll’s name. They have codenames every year. Chrissa had Lulu, McKenna had Velma, Saige had Alberta and I had Blanche. I think that this is a trick story to get fans busy, so don’t expect a doll who has to save a shop. From, Isabelle

Sorry that we haven’t posted in a while. Our owner had homework, plans, stopmotions and Power BFFs. But now it’s summer and our owner is done with Power BFFs, now that means more stories! In May, I was looking at americangirl.com and it said “Say farewell to Marie Grace, Cecile, Ivy and Ruthie!” I screamed! The name in bold was MY NAME! Me getting retired? NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Yesterday, me and Isabelle cried. Me and Isabelle couldn’t find a way to solve the problem because our owner was on vacation. We texted her and she created a petition. Can you please sign it? Thank you. http://petitions.moveon.org/sign/save-our-history-dolls Ruthie

Hi, it’s Isabelle. I am the Girl of the Year for this year (the highest honor a doll can get!) and also a doll detective. You think a Girl of the Year is sad when she gets retired. Well, I will, but I love trademark searching! And typing my evidence to the world! If you don’t like spoilers, then don’t read this, as this contains spoilers on next year’s GOTY. Otherwise, read on. So, I was searching trademarks on AG on Trademarkia, and I got a huge discovery. American Girl has trademarked names not used by dolls or Innerstar University characters! Here are the names: Emmy (It had no last name available, so I think that this is GOTY 2015!) Grace Thomas (Sounds pretty historical… I think this will be used for a 1950’s historical) News flash: We have 2 names so far! Please check another trademark website for more evidence! Which name do you want for GOTY 2015, Emmy or Grace? Isabelle

Hi! We just opened a blog of our own, yay! By the way, our friend Sydney made a petition about saving Girl of the Year dolls, and I like it! I am a Girl of the Year doll myself, so I said to Kit, “I should post this to our new blog!” Kit nodded in agreement. Then Lanie came along and said, “Hey, Saige, you have a good idea of posting this to our blog!” Kanani, Nicki and Chrissa said yes too. Then, I am posting this NOW! Please sign this nice petition! Here is the link to the petition: petitions.moveon.org/sign/mattel-make-a-girl-of? Please help us reach our goal of 1 million signatures. Thanks! -Saige
