If they missed out on anything, I would say it's Molly's iconic raincoat , boots and umbrella. When my daughter got her Molly back in 1991 I ordered the patterns and made the coat and hat and ordered the boots and umbrella. I also made the school outfit and birthday dress. The patterns were so good that everything looks just like the store bought clothes. With they'd bring back the patterns too.
I believe those original patterns can be still found online. Do some digging-I think one of the clubs I’m in somebody mentioned they were still online (and free!)
I did just see that AG commented on their Instagram that Molly will be around for a while as a featured historical character, so i hope she sticks around for longer than a year 😭
I’m so excited! I always wanted a Molly since 2006 but never got one. Got back into dolls in February 2022 which I missed the 35th anniversary release. Definitely running to get her
Hi Kris, thank you so much for sharing! I adore Molly and I have 3 of them. An original from 1996, the Costco version one, and the 35th Anniversary. I’m going to go get this one as well. Love the school outfit. Will be getting that one as well. I truly enjoy your videos so much.
I still have my Molly doll from my 5th birthday in 2006! Love her so much and I love that they brought her back. I ended up getting her camp outfit when it rereleased
I got her birthday outfit (I also had a $10 reward!!) Can’t wait for the outfit to come in! Later on if it’s still available, I will get her school outfit and possibly her camp outfit.
Ahhhh! I’m freaking out! I have such mixed feelings about her being back. Definitely a lot of joy and nostalgia but also confusion and concern for keeping up quality and sharing diverse stories. Thanks for sharing!
I got her before she retired and her sweater also has velcro in the back. I'm not sure when that change happened but some of the AG Molly's pre retirement also have the velcro sweater. He skirt is pretty thick though so the skirt is def different
Hi just found your channel today looks fun. I have Molly's original Pleasant Co. outfit but the sweater has Velcro on the back, maybe they made 2 versions? I do hope they release more of her original outfits. I have a few of hers bu I would love the "polka dot" outfit and the roller skating outfit.... cross fingers!
I enjoyed your video very much! I was so happy they brought her back out . I'm waiting for mine to arrive and some of her things also. How wonderful that your parents took you to get her when you were younger. I'm an old lady who still loves dolls. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Kris Thank u sooo much for sharing this video you can see the items sooo much clearer than just on the website. I want to get as much as I can from her collection any idea when AG gives out rewards? Im wondering if i should buy now or wait for my rewards im worried they may sell out
@thedollstudiobychris I am just watching ur videos and I got my molly doll last week and I love her so much I know that this video is from 2yrs ago but I'm glad that u have a video about molly
I finally got her today 😭 She’s been a favorite of mine forever. I have classic Julie and Ivy, but forever wished I had asked for Molly. I finally have her!
Hi Kris! I have a couple questions about this version of Molly first, does she have lined or feathered eyebrows, and second does she have neck strings or zip ties? Thanks! This was a great video!
I just ordered Molly. I have the original but along the move from Oregon to Portland, she lost her clothes. Why did she did not have them on, I know not. I am so happy she returned and I know my original Molly will be happy to see her also.
My sister had Molly growing up and nowadays she's mine. But whoa i wish i had the new glasses. My Molly is from 2009 and her glasses are NEVER stay on. The little rubber tips did her stuck in her braids but they almost ALWAYS fell off and slipped down her nose. And the arms of the glasses kept getting loose so they REALLY didn't stay on 😂 The new pair looks sooo sturdy. And yeah the old Molly Locket did open like Samantha's did.
I really hope American Girl reconsiders just keeping her around temporarily and decides to bring her back to being permanent. I love her and her collection so much. It’ll a while for her to grow on me, but she eventually became one of my favorites.
My mom bought her since the doll came out on her birthday. It was fulfilling a childhood wish because she had wanted the doll when it was released. My grandma sent her money to buy the doll because she promised my mom she would buy her Molly. So now Molly is sitting in her box in our living room because my mom doesn't want to touch her. She wants her Molly to stay in perfect condition. I'd like her to stay that way too because the doll will be mine one day and I don't want a messed up Molly. However I do think her return downgrades her value. Before Molly dolls were worth thousands of dollars. But I do think that the Pleasant Company Molly's are worth much more so people can continue buying her. This Molly could just be for young girls (or mothers with childhood dreams) to have if they want her just to play with her.
I just saw this and was wondering if they used the original Nick Backes illustrations from all of the original Molly books. Nick's Illustrations are stunning and IMO the best. he was member of the LGBTQ community back in the 80's and unfortunately the world lost his talent too soon. Btw Molly is very dear to me too and have 3 ,all early PC. Stay safe and well
I wish AG would just bring her old outfits and accessories back so we wouldn't have to pay 3x more from ebay and mercari 😫 but I also hate knowing the clothes will be snug and shoes tight on my Molly
✨ I forgot to mention. She has lined eyebrows, no neck strings, and she is very similar to the 35th anniversary Molly✨
I thought you might want to know AG has deleted that comment and have responded to others saying Molly will be sticking around! So she is not limited
@@TessesKingdom Thank you!

@@Paradespc Thank you!
I wish they would bring back the route 66 dress, its very rare
I did just see that AG commented on their Instagram that Molly will be around for a while as a featured historical character, so i hope she sticks around for longer than a year 😭
I'm sooooo happy she's back, she's the whole reason I got into AG. I wish they had brought me something new and some new books( I love her stories)
I’m so excited! I always wanted a Molly since 2006 but never got one. Got back into dolls in February 2022 which I missed the 35th anniversary release. Definitely running to get her
Thanks for being so quick to share everything! It helped me figure out what to buy :)
I'm glad AG is starting to bring back the historical dolls. I hope they continue to back back the rest of the girls.
Hi Kris, thank you so much for sharing!
I adore Molly and I have 3 of them.
An original from 1996, the Costco version one, and the 35th Anniversary.
I’m going to go get this one as well.
Love the school outfit. Will be getting that one as well.
I truly enjoy your videos so much.
Sorry about the double comment. The camp is pronounced "go on again"...kind of a pun.
I still have my Molly doll from my 5th birthday in 2006! Love her so much and I love that they brought her back. I ended up getting her camp outfit when it rereleased
I got her birthday outfit (I also had a $10 reward!!) Can’t wait for the outfit to come in! Later on if it’s still available, I will get her school outfit and possibly her camp outfit.

I am so excited!!! Molly is my favorite American girl character! I really hope to get her after graduation!
I got her before she retired and her sweater also has velcro in the back. I'm not sure when that change happened but some of the AG Molly's pre retirement also have the velcro sweater. He skirt is pretty thick though so the skirt is def different
Thank you for putting this together on release day!
I’m so happy Molly is back!! I really enjoyed this video I hope to add her to my collection soon!
Aghhhh literally amazing, I’m so glad she is back

Did you say that you can open the locket on this new necklace?
@thedollstudiobychris I am just watching ur videos and I got my molly doll last week and I love her so much I know that this video is from 2yrs ago but I'm glad that u have a video about molly
The book gives the camps pronunciation, it Camp Go-on-again.
I finally got her today 😭 She’s been a favorite of mine forever. I have classic Julie and Ivy, but forever wished I had asked for Molly. I finally have her!
Every time I see her camp outfit I always chant "Camp Gowonagin, go on again and try again!" 😆
Omg I love she is back but sad it's only temporary I need to get her before she sells out and compare with my Pleasant Company one
Hi Kris! I have a couple questions about this version of Molly first, does she have lined or feathered eyebrows, and second does she have neck strings or zip ties? Thanks! This was a great video!
He mentioned that she has lined eyebrows and zip ties
@@IsaTo10 thanks I must of missed that!
No problem!:)
she is so cute. your so close to 1k
So excited for Molly!
Thanks, Kris. What is the differences in the various Molly releases?
I've had my Molly doll since I was five years old. I'm 29 now and she's still going strong.
Molly is queen to me! She was my first AG doll in 1989.
I just ordered Molly. I have the original but along the move from Oregon to Portland, she lost her clothes. Why did she did not have them on, I know not.
I am so happy she returned and I know my original Molly will be happy to see her also.

They did! They took Dow the post kris showed in the video and said that she would be sticking around!
I believe Gowonagin is pronounced like "go on again"- hence the camp mantra, "go on again and try."
does she have strings?
No she does not
Molly is my favvvv
I love Molly dolls I have three of them two are renamed Starrleena Joy and Madonna Rose and my original is Molly Jean
Love this version of Molly! She's too cute! I have Emily now I guess I'm gonna have to get Molly
By the way, the name of the camp is go on again. The only reason why it’s so difficult to pronounce is that the words are all together.
I already have a Molly doll from 1986 that I got from a thrift store for $25 but I now I really want a new Molly 🤔
I always thought the camp name sounded like going again.... goin'again
i have an original with lots of original accessories I think its a 1986
If I remember correctly, the camp is pronounced Camp Go-On-Again.
Ngl I doubt she isn’t a permanent character, I don’t think they would have changed her book if not
My mom bought her since the doll came out on her birthday. It was fulfilling a childhood wish because she had wanted the doll when it was released. My grandma sent her money to buy the doll because she promised my mom she would buy her Molly. So now Molly is sitting in her box in our living room because my mom doesn't want to touch her. She wants her Molly to stay in perfect condition.
I'd like her to stay that way too because the doll will be mine one day and I don't want a messed up Molly.
However I do think her return downgrades her value.
Before Molly dolls were worth thousands of dollars.
But I do think that the Pleasant Company Molly's are worth much more so people can continue buying her.
This Molly could just be for young girls (or mothers with childhood dreams) to have if they want her just to play with her.

Nick's Illustrations are stunning and IMO the best. he was member of the LGBTQ community back in the 80's and unfortunately the world lost his talent too soon.

I wish AG would just bring her old outfits and accessories back so we wouldn't have to pay 3x more from ebay and mercari 😫 but I also hate knowing the clothes will be snug and shoes tight on my Molly
It is 2023 and she is still available so in my opinion she is not as special as some other dolls that were only around for a few months
its camp=== go on again=== it is not native language so you wouldn't offend anyone I don't think LOL
Mollys camp outfit is pronounced go-on-a-gin.gowonagin. Hope it helps!
