I collect American Girl dolls and have 94 dolls. I have all the mini dolls and some duplicates of some. I have a lot of the furniture, clothes and accessories. I’m slightly addicted!❤😂
i’m also an american girl collector and i’ve been following kris for a while. this is actually SO cool! it’s been so fun to see our little hobby gain more and more popularity and recognition lately
As a fellow adult doll collector, I loved this! I’m so glad Kris’ family finally accepted his hobby. 😊 Dolls are for everyone. There is no hard and fast rule that dolls are only for little girls. Honestly, it would do some good in the world if more men had played with dolls as kids. Many adults today collect toys, too. I love how it’s gotten more socially acceptable. ❤
I honestly genuinely love how he’s so dedicated and committed to his beautiful doll collection, it’s like me telling myself no I don’t need no more “sharks” but yet sometimes or not I buy them to make me feel happy. When happier, when I make clothes for them. Keep on doing you !
I have a Squishmallow army, & I refuse to calculate the damage lol. So I can't hate the game. Do what makes you happy, there's so much wrong in this world. I'm glad you found something to bring you joy 💖
I’m also an American girl collector and it’s so nice to see positive things being said about us! It’s often seen as a cringy and childish hobby but I’d say otherwise, it takes so much effort and care to keep these dolls looking clean and nice. I love that Kris was featured by you guys!
As a boy who was endlessly bullied for liking Barbie dolls, I'm happy with the progress we've made. At the end of the day these are just heaps of plastic, it's always adults looking for negativity in things. Kids are pure and only find malice in something once adults start scrutinizing it. For instance my biggest draw to Barbie was the hair, I was obssesed with long hair and loved to style and brush it. Now I'm a full grown adult whose pursing a career in hairstyling. Also I can't stress the importance of having a supportive family, I'm so happy that he was blessed with such an amazing family. At the end of the day it's a harmless hobby, pricey? Sure. As long as you're being a responsible adult, paying your bills, having food to eat, and clothes on your back then nothing else matters.💚
I watch Kris's TH-cam channel all the time and was not expecting to see him on this channel! I am a doll collector myself so I like to live vicariously through his videos.
@@ajarnt9050She's a "Just Like You" #6! The version Kris has was only avalible for a very short period of time (less than 2 years), before she retired, and when she was released again, she was revamped to look completely different! (Blonde hair, green eyes) She's a very hard doll to come by because of it, due to how short she was avalible for/her uniqueness! Her and Samantha look very different side by side, as that doll has black hair instead of brown! :) Here's a video from his TH-cam channel about her + explaining her a bit more! th-cam.com/video/rGdpbe8XGt0/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
I watch Kris as a fellow adult collector it’s so funny to see him here! I love watching his channel as well as many other doll collectors, we are not so rare anymore
As an Adult Doll Collector myself... Yessss, I'm totally here for "Kris Kollection" the doll room build out is amazing!!! I LOVE this so much and the support is priceless!!! Tomorrow isn't promised... Life is short buy the doll!!! Live & Love life to the fullest!!! ❤ Blessings!!!
I know of Kris (also in the AG community) and I am happy to say he is the most socially normal person this show has interviewed. That is a great thing!
I love this so much! I’m an adult AG collector and I love watching his videos! I’m proud of Kris for following his dreams and doing what makes him happy! We need more people like him in this world. Keep it up Kris, we love your collection and videos. 🥰
Aw the support in his life from his family is so heartwarming. I collect anime figures, and it started with my brother getting me my first 10 years ago. It was so sweet because I didn't know how he knew which one I wanted till I remembered years prior he deleted some files on the family computer including one with a couple pictures of the figure. It was the first thing he ever got me when he got his first job. So many sweet memories come up when I look at them
That doll he spent 2000 on truly is THAT rare ! I have her as well but I didn’t pay close to that amount as I got super lucky . She was made for only a year lol and no one bought her so they got rid of her.
It’s not that no one bought her... They thought she was too similar to Samantha. Which is kind of weird as GOT#16 looks more like Samantha and they kept her for some reason. Only the POC dolls have black hair in the initial GOT release.
@@ALT-vz3jn she also looked similar to # 4 because of the hair as well so it was easy to miss her . Even thought I know 4 has a different face mold . Either way she still wasn’t super popular from what I seen other collectors say . 16 was my childhood doll 😭so having them both you can definitely see a difference in person
I love Kris! As a guy who loves dolls and collects AG, there are not many guys who collect dolls. When I first started collecting as an adult, I was really a self-conscious about what people would think of me, as a guy going into a doll space, one that society really views for little girls. On social media for every like 30 collectors you get one guy who collects dolls. Maybe even less. I’ve only met 3 people who collect dolls that are not women. I love the AG community and what they have done for me as a collector in terms of support and acceptance. Kris was really one of the first guys I saw that collects dolls and definitely breaks the stereotype when it comes to doll collecting. It really helped me come out of my shell and be myself. For that I am grateful!
I collect dolls, and my husband collects physical Switch games and Super Mario memorabilia. I’m glad society is changing and being more accepting of these things, because they’re normal and bring a lot of joy to life in the horrible world we live in now. I’ve been following Kris for a while and he’s a cool guy with an amazing collection, and he worked at American Girl as a doll hairstylist! He’s definitely helped me a lot with restyling American Girl doll hair.
This video was sooo wholesome and warming! Kris definitely helped me get back in touch with my inner child and love for AG. I love that his family is so supportive
This is so awesome and wholesome ♥️😍 Him, his family, and friends are so great and supportive. I'm a little jealous of that collection. I had some hard times and sold all of my childhood dolls, but I'm slowly starting again from scratch. Now I have a daughter to share this passion with!
I’m an adult doll and plushie collector. I like to weave in many different hobbies into my doll collecting, such as sewing/crafting, acting, photography, etc. Collectors of dolls, plushies, and toys come in all different ages.
I still have my original Addy doll with a bunch of the accessories and books stored away in a protective container. This doll meant so much more to me than most because my grandmother's name is Addie as well, just spelled differently. She is also the one who gave it to me for Christmas as a child. I am of the age range when the books were out way before they even started making dolls. So, I fell in love with the stories as a child before I ever received a doll at age 11, I believe. For me, it was the first pretty expensive collectible doll that was black that I had ever seen. So, it was $112 back in 1992. That was a lot for a doll for a child back then, plus the book series and accessories! I think that is why I will always try to keep her safely locked away. I remember looking through the catalog and checking off all of the accessories that I wanted. She holds sentimental value that can not be replaced. ❤❤❤❤
I collect American Girl Doll too. I also have our Generation and my life dolls. My doll collection is pretty big but not nearly as big as a lot of TH-camrs. Thank you for sharing your story. This teaches me anyone can collect dolls. Every age every gender. This is awesome. A real inspiration
Im a doll collector myself (tho i dont collect AG i collect things like monster high , living dead dolls, rainbow high etc) and i love kris’ channel SO much-alot of what i learned about AG was thanks to channels like his
What a fantastic channel, your love ❤for dolls really shines through. In this world we have to do what makes you happy, and never let anyone take that away. I know what it’s like to have someone try and take away something you you love ❤I was lucky they did not achieve it. Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing.
I am an American Girl doll collector for 8 years now. I run a channel and Instagram. I follow and subscribe to Kris and his content is phenomenal! Way to go kris love your content and collection!!!❤
This is so awesome! Kris rocks, he was the one that started my Daughter & I on our AG journey way back in 2016. We just got to meet him this year at the AGLA location it was so cool! ❤
I love Chris' channel, loved seeing this interview, the big smile on his face now compared to the photos from when he was younger 😭💔 keep on being beautiful Chris ❤️
I collected barbie dolls;and when I turned 13 I came home from school,only to find that my mother threw them all away...saying I was too old for dolls. Ill never forget that.
You do you! Everyone has their passions and yours collection is amazing! I bought my daughter a couple of American Girl dolls and she never even touched them. They're still here in the house in their boxes. I loved dolls growing up and wanted my daughter to love them to, but she never did.
I was never a bully in school. I have disabilities and I advocated in the schools about people with disabilities and I would stick up for people like you all the time growing up in school.
Molly was my very first historical doll that I saved up my allowance and bought on my own. When I was I want to say 12 or 13 and I got her as a present for my one say Christmas from Santa. I don’t have Molly anymore but I now have be forever, Samantha, and girl of the year Keira and that’s it.
I am obsessed with dolls, since childhood I see dreams of dolls, finding out dolls in dreams, I love collecting all of them, i just get peace when I see them...feel so nice to see there are people out there like us,,if I were to choose diamonds and dolls ...I would choose dolls Lol ❤❤
Do you have an amazing collection? Let us know in the comments below 👇
I collect rubber ducks
i have around 600 books and about 60 or so diecast f1 and nascar and monster jam trucks
YES, I collect all kinds of dolls including reborn dolls, Ashton Drake, Lee Middleton and Paradise Gallery dolls!!❤❤❤
I collect dolls too bratz,Barbie,integrity, fashion dolls mainly including 10 doll houses and 11 cars!
I collect American Girl dolls and have 94 dolls. I have all the mini dolls and some duplicates of some. I have a lot of the furniture, clothes and accessories. I’m slightly addicted!❤😂
I love that his dad and brother-in-law built his dollhouse for him! ♥
Bruh i was like that is amazing
That is the best dollhouse I’ve ever seen!
Came here to say that. So happy I am not the only one who noticed!!! ❤
idk why some of the comments aren't for it, it's just a person who's passionate about their collection and finding joy in something.
Yes and he's paying for it not asking these ignorant fools for money to support him
i’m also an american girl collector and i’ve been following kris for a while. this is actually SO cool! it’s been so fun to see our little hobby gain more and more popularity and recognition lately
We're so glad you enjoyed the video 💙
I love how supportive his dad is, made me want to cry tbh ❤️❤️❤️
he's probably the most normal person that has ever appeared in this channel
Most normal collector.
Fr
and he's still a freaaaaakin weeeeeeirdo
Collecting dolls as a fully grown man is normal..
@@tashaax1993xanimalloverxyes it is just like woman purches purses they will never use 🙄

Agreed! 😊
Well he is zesty so this makes sense
🤩
I think it’s great for boys and men to play with dolls. Especially boys when they’re younger. I think it helps them to be better dads.
I honestly genuinely love how he’s so dedicated and committed to his beautiful doll collection, it’s like me telling myself no I don’t need no more “sharks” but yet sometimes or not I buy them to make me feel happy. When happier, when I make clothes for them. Keep on doing you !
I love how supportive his dad is🥺
With so much so wrong in our world right now, this just feels right. Kudos to Kris for finding something that brings him so much joy and comfort 🎉
Yay! We're so glad you enjoyed this video ☺
I have a Squishmallow army, & I refuse to calculate the damage lol. So I can't hate the game. Do what makes you happy, there's so much wrong in this world. I'm glad you found something to bring you joy 💖
I collect dolls and plushies (including Squishmallows) 😊.
Not me crying in my coffee. The love and support for you and your hobby from your family is just so beautiful. ❤ Great interview.
I have a 1:6th scale WWII action figure collection. I’m drooling over the shelf this guy has for his dolls. It’s very nice!!
I’m also an American girl collector and it’s so nice to see positive things being said about us! It’s often seen as a cringy and childish hobby but I’d say otherwise, it takes so much effort and care to keep these dolls looking clean and nice. I love that Kris was featured by you guys!
"I'm proud of you mijo" omfggg such a cute family
The fact it would be more socially acceptable for him to be addicted to crack or corn is wild
As a boy who was endlessly bullied for liking Barbie dolls, I'm happy with the progress we've made.

I’m so sorry you were bullied for dolls :( ! While I’m female in NOW made fun of for having them because I’m an adult . People are miserable
I watch Kris's TH-cam channel all the time and was not expecting to see him on this channel! I am a doll collector myself so I like to live vicariously through his videos.
Do you know if that that "most expensive doll" is a retired Samantha? I can't think of what else would make an AG doll so rare.

@@lenalovesag Thank you so much for responding. Wow, you really know your stuff! Thank you for finding the link too!
I was a boy in the 70's & wanted an easy bake oven. I knew asking for it wasn't considered 'right'. Times have changed.
Bruh that's so stupid. There's nothing wrong with baking or cooking. Those are life skills
And men shouldn’t learn to cook or bake? Seriously.
for some it’s the same
@@Diamondr11Blueyou were obviously not a kid in the 70’s. Sit down.
There are worse things to be addicted to. I’m glad that he has such a supportive family and friends.
So so beautiful.❤ Imagine the dollies coming to life when he's not around and throwing a party.🥳
Aww he’s just as GORGEOUS as his “DOLL’S” God Bless you & Keep Having Fun.😊
I watch Kris as a fellow adult collector it’s so funny to see him here! I love watching his channel as well as many other doll collectors, we are not so rare anymore
Such a wonderful family ❤ whenever they can support your hobbies on top of loving u unconditionally ❤
Dolls cannot choose, they can only be chosen . Great collection ❤️
Hey, I'm a 22 yr old woman and I collect these. Plus Monster high, Barbie, action figures plushies and more. Plus, I customize dolls!
How much do you charge for customs ??
I haven’t started selling them yet.
@Dragonlady448 when you do,post on here please where to buy them at !
These doll set ups are INCREDIBLE ❤❤❤ what an amazing collection!

I come to these pages to leave positive comments because I love seeing people happy ❤

Not my thing but awesome collection, the diy house is dope 👍

I'm an adult, and this inspires me to go through collecting things that are deemed "childish."' Also, the parents are so sweet.
Dolls and action figures are so healing as an adult, they’re incredible. Definitely worth checking out to see if it’s something you would enjoy.
How sweet . ❤ love he gets to do what he’s always wanted to with all the support from his family !

Thanks, I thought i was weird still buying American Girl Dolls when I am in my 20s. glad Im not the only one who likes them.
You are a girl so it's okay he's a creepy man
Dolls aren’t gendered… You can collect dolls regardless. It’s not a big deal really.
