I did not get a haircut lol. I filmed this about a month ago. This is an original 1993 collection purchased all together, plus a progress report on my entire Addy collection!
OMG, I literally found out that after loving Addy for so many years that I am a descendant of a former slave that had the surname Walker. Even though the Addy character is fiction, when I saw that I just felt the hairs stand up. I loved her stories since I was a child and always wondered about my family and their connection to American slavery or if I would ever know my African ancestors from early 1700s and 1800s pre Civil War since I have info on 1860 U.S census. Very powerful doll series and she was highly marketed in Ebony magazine in 1993 or 1994. But her books are so spot on and evokes a lot of emotions about how freedom came with a price. For my family, her story aligned with my family and their American experience. The paper dolls are magical, wished her 1990s collection offered the doll's paper dolls like they did for Kirsten, Molly and Samantha winter stories' collection.
500 for that beautiful of an Addy PLUS all of the rest of the collection is lowkey a steal! I’ve been trying to find a really good quality addy just by herself and if the doll doesn’t look like it’s been a car accident they’re such steep prices so I think it’s a great investment for ur collection! Always love ur videos:)
Cooking show.. yes! Josefina collection… heck yes! A walk thru of your doll room would also be amazing. I love seeing people’s collections all together🎉
It's like Christmas came early 🎉❤😺You did an Addy video and finally someone acknowledges they don't all look the same. Love your videos and watch this while cooking. I got 3 Addys (2 pleasant company and 1 American girl) and some addy molds.
Thanks for the video I recently got Addys trunk as I have a lot of her collection. The trunk is amazing. I love Addy and in general the Addy mold. I would also love to see your Josefina collection. I plan to get her school desk . It would be nice to see a girl of today collection.
I love addy I have 2 of them I have them tuck away because I want to do a AG doll house thank you so much for the review you explain everything so well ❤
Finally having my own american girl doll is like a dream come true. I always wanted one as a kid but we weren't well off and I live in the UK, so I never asked for one because I knew the answer would be no. I managed to get one for myself now and I love her so much. For anyone wondering its an Elizabeth (she's English like me so I love her even more).
the beans picture took me out 😭 i was not expecting that i also love hearing you talk abt your memories from when these dolls came out even though you weren't allowed to have AG dolls. I totally relate although as a girl who was allowed to play with dolls my situation was admittedly different. I never had AG dolls growing up (I did get an Engel Puppen as a gift from a relative which was similar quality to AG but I always wanted an AG SPECIFICALLY sooooooo badly) and so now that I'm in my late 20s with late 20 year old money finally and getting yourself the dolls you dreamed about as a lil kid is just SO rewarding and healing to your inner child!! It's so special and these Addys are SO darling 🥺
also YES PLEASE to josefina collection ! josefina is my girl i got her a while back first edition in box w her book and everything and it was exactly that feeling for me that you were talking about re: band boxes !!
I got Addy's Rerelease Birthday dress and I love it. I hope AG releases more Histocal outfits from the original 8 dolls I said 8 because kit and Kaya are a part of my childhood and in 2002 when Kaya released was when I discovered AG so theirs 8 original Histocals in my brain
This seems like a wonderful Addy collection. My Addy is older but I’m not sure if she is first edition. She was missing her shoes and one eyebrow has been redrawn! Her hair is very thin and I think someone tried to straighten it. Lol. She has a lot of character. Of the first three Addy’s you showed, my favourite was the one from the trunk. She has the cutest expression. I would love to get a mintier one someday. I enjoyed seeing your child like excitement looking at the Addy collection. I am a fan of keeping sets together when possible but it is not always possible. I love the trunk too! ❤
I think the buttons were available at Hallmark. In the late 90s to maybe 2004 or 2005. American Girl/Pleasant Company had a deal with Hallmark that they had stuff available to buy like the button's,The Christmas ornaments,tins,tea sets and anything you can think of it had up to Kaya and kit in the Hallmark items that's all I know
Enjoyed this video, love it when you do PC collections and stuff. Would love to see Josefina, I'm a big fan. Just got Felicity's Town Fair outfit, yay. Anyone out there who's a big fan of Kirsten and Samantha watch Bobbity Kate's videos, she goes through all of the story books including the paper dolls and cook books while actually cooking some of the recipes. She is very funny and a good story teller. Just be warned the videos are a marathon so you'll maybe have to watch them in parts.
When I get my own room I want my dolls on their bookcase shelves And I really want some of the newer Histocal dolls beds like Courtney's bed and the twins beds with their bedding and maybe the newer AG trunk would be cool to have for one of my favorite dolls I don't know. I love your displays A girl can dream though
I also have a few Pleasant Company cookbooks. It's very hard to find such things here in Germany. I would definitely watch videos of you cooking from them.
Yay so happy for you she is beautiful she’s been my dream doll since I was little and I haven’t found a GUC one yet so I’m waiting for my perfect Addy ♥️
I looked into my Addy, and I think it’s a second edition. I would have gotten it either Christmas 93 or 94. I have the bed and school set with it. Lost some small items like the books :( E - just looked and I have the real coin, real gourd, but boots with grommets
I want Addy's pink Histocal meet dress so bad. I have Beforever Addy with her blue dress so I want the original pink dress so bad for my Addy. If I could id get a Rerelease Addy but I haven't done it
Do you have Kaya Johny? Because I see her dog I want to see her Kaya collection if you have one. Would you had Kaya to your collection? Because she's technically the last doll made during pleasant Roland owned AG. Since Kaya took 5 years of research and everything. She probably my favorite because I discovered AG when Kaya came out with her first catalog which was my first catalog of fall 2002.

The 175 trading card listings fake out is SO REAL.
She is wonderful. I don't have one . . . yet. Everyday, it's a new doll I love and want and neeeeeeed. I need them to model my fabulous fashions.

They make bigger zip locks you could use for longer outfits like your sleeping gown

Hearing you talk about Addy almost made me tear up

Yes, please make a Josefina video. I would love to see a video on all of your Molly collection.
I found a changes for Addy First cover book at goodwill. I think it said 1994 I don't know but it was only that one
❤❤❤Yes, show us your cooking skills!!!!!!❤❤❤
The underpinnings are the perfect length to the dress. They peek out just a bit below the hem.
Love it! I always look forward to your new videos!😁
I also have a few Pleasant Company cookbooks. It's very hard to find such things here in Germany. I would definitely watch videos of you cooking from them.
Kwanzaa invented/started in 1966, so Addy did not practice/celebrate the holiday.
Yay so happy for you she is beautiful she’s been my dream doll since I was little and I haven’t found a GUC one yet so I’m waiting for my perfect Addy ♥️

Do you have Kaya Johny? Because I see her dog I want to see her Kaya collection if you have one. Would you had Kaya to your collection? Because she's technically the last doll made during pleasant Roland owned AG. Since Kaya took 5 years of research and everything. She probably my favorite because I discovered AG when Kaya came out with her first catalog which was my first catalog of fall 2002.
Do you have Kaya dog? He's right next to your boy doll's Courtney bunk bed
