We need a redheaded boy.
YES YES YES! Why didn't I think of this?! Okay, that's #1 on my wishlist now 😭
I agree about gendering toys. Any kid should be able to play with whatever they want. When my daughters were kids, they got all kinds of toys including tool sets, race cars and Legos.
Yeah, it’s wild to me that American Girl still insist on using gendered language in marketing. To assume that a product line about girl characters is only interesting to girls, is archaic IMO
@@idreamofjonny My coworker hadn't heard of AG dolls until I told her about them last week. She immediately went on their site with plans to have her daughter AND son each pick one out! It's a nice way for siblings to have a shared interest. And yes, I do enjoy the format of this video because I'm one of those who sews while watching YT videos :)
That’s so nice! I wish my parents thought that way 🤣 thank you for the feedback!
My son and daughter both have 18 AG dolls, Wellie Wishers and bitty babies, my son prefers the boys(wish there were more selection for clothes) but he’s welcome to choose whatever dolls he likes.
@@idreamofjonnyas a child growing up with two dads I never had to worry about my dads telling me that I couldn't play with boys toys I still find it wild in 2024 that there are parents who won't let their sons play with dolls because they are worried that it is a girl's toy and it might turn them gay
I really adored this podcast style video! I love your normal content too, but I’m on a 7hr bus ride home from NYC and videos like this are perfect for keeping me entertained without also getting carsick 😂❤ excited for the future of AG and the Truly Me line!!
Thank you so much! I enjoyed doing an audio-only version for the first time in a while. I hope you had a nice trip!
I like the podcast style!
I definitely agree that they need to bring an Asian boy back into the line- I also want them to bring back the number 4 mold!
Thanks! I've been saying that I hope they bring back #4 for the 30th anniversary of American Girl Today!
I don't think they've ever had a boy with Felicity's red hair color either.
I love podcast like this. I do alot of crafting over the weekend. Especially for my dolls and itis fun to listen to podcasts! I am super excited for the new line ups! I'm still holding out for Kirsten! I mean they have been hinting for a while now!
I'm glad you like it! I still really believe Kirsten is coming back. It's insane that she and Felicity are just missing!
I talked to someone at the AG store in NYC when buying the Kirsten sticker set (trying to do my part lol), she said they all hope she comes back too, but no news/they only get info maybe a month before something new comes out. I would imagine if there was something it would probably be around her Birthday which is in the summer . (there could be a surprise release too. But seemingly not in the first part of the year)
@@idreamofjonny Kirsten was also never given a Beforever release and I believe she was the first character made wasn't she? If my memory serves right!
@@Cool-eo1oe I have been bugging them for years to bring Kirsten back! She has always been my favorite!
This was great and I liked the audio because I knew I could listen and not miss important information. Thank you!
I loved this style of video! Though your normal content is great when we get to see your facial expressions.
I think its smart to rerelease 88, she's very popular. I tried ignoring her at first, but my friend got me her during the sale for Christmas and now I adore her.
I would be GAGGED if they rerelased the #4 mold in this new release.
I would love to see Asian and Hispanic boy dolls brought back, and more representation for boys. And I would love to see a new headsculpt that would showcase representation of a child with Downs Syndrome. I’m not wild about t-shirt dresses, and would love to see them being back meet outfits similar to the older Truly Me meet outfits, but I do understand the cost issue.
I agree with all of the above! I'm really hoping we get more boy dolls (at least one). I'm surprised they don't have any DS representation yet - I would love to see it!
I hope they bring back kirsten and her red boots and #4. Love your channel
Thank you! I'm still optimistic that Kirsten is coming back! Can you imagine if we just randomly got a #4 sculpt TM doll in this next release?!
@@idreamofjonny I really hope they bring #4 back. I know she would be well received
Any rumors about Historical dolls? New ones or re launches? Thanks! Have a great one! 😊
Jonny what’s your favorite mold? Until I recently looked at my collection and the dolls I want, I apparently really love the Josefina mold. I always thought classic was my favorite!
I love your take on AG! You're spot on with your theory and the ideology of Mattel. They are really now paying attention to the adult doll collectors and the buying power they have. Money talks...which was a popular dance song in the late 90s also.
I stand by my vision of a rainbow wig classic mold boy doll. Ever since Lance from * NSYNC dyed his a blue color for Trolls franchise premier last year with the newest movie I have wanted a boy doll with light skin and rainbow hair. 😊 Love the videos you make bc you have great ideas and a good amount of knowledge on Pleasant Company now AG and Mattel overall.
now we can only hope that they'll play into the adult collectors by releasing matching girl + dolls sets in adult sizes!
Thank you so much! I've been watching your videos forever, and I definitely share a lot of the same opinions as you hehe.
If we get a new boy doll, I could totally see them giving him color streaks in his hair! They're gonna have to step it up with the outfit range though, because I will need clothes to match if they do!
I'm really hoping American Girl continue to cater to the collector market too. I really am wishing for a much bigger Barbie x AG line!
Great video. 😅 I enjoyed the podcast style but either way is good with me. It’s your insight I love to hear. You and I share alot of the same ideology about the dolls. ❤
I love to hear that! Thank you for the feedback as well! ❤️
I have a really small head so I guarantee that I’ll be able to fit the child sized bucket hat. Lol. I really want the new pet pjs and Lila’s book.
Lucky! I forgot to mentions the books in this video, but I am curious about Lila’s book because I love gymnastics!
I love your videos! Thanks for sharing!I got so excited when you talked about the Josefina mold with freckles! I think she will be so cute!!🤗I hope you are doing well and have a wonderful day and new year!!😄❤️
Thank you so much Robin! I'm really optimistic that I'll love the new dolls. I really like what they've been doing lately. Happy New Year!
Brioche 😂 how do I apply for the job to name the new AG pets?
I mean, honestly 🤣🤣🤣
At the approx. 17.50 time stamp you mention "I've never seen anyone line up there Truly Me dolls in their mert outfits"...as I look up and see: Mix and Match, 1st Day, Red Vinyl Jumper, Urban, Go Anywhere, and Ready for Fun, on 6 dolls across the top of my piano. ...or were you just referring to the current Truly Me line meet outfits only??
I want the bulldog but not the pet spa so I’m a little sad about that.
I know, I wish they’d sell the dog separately!
I just bought #88 during the sale...You know I should have just waited not that I'm seeing these. Her new wig looks so good!!!
I agree with the robes. I wish they had them separate. I got the PJs for my dolls and love them. I agree they need stop inventing the wheel when new dolls come out. I like the new fun ones with hair colors and new molds.
I’m running out of room for all these dolls lol
SAME. I have like 20 AG dolls just tucked away in storage 😭
Podcasts are fun and it could be an easier way to talk about other lines/collectibles/news/to buy or anti-hauls. Like a monthly doll chat/news. But maybe it oversteps on patreon?
I guess certain dolls that are very popular and that’s why they basically are having a rerelease. I feel sorry for any completionists lol
Tbh with the pets I feel like there is less of an emphasis than in the 2000s. There was so much with Coconut. The shower cap reminds me of a coconut type accessories. I would love a coconut accessory rerelease for just the nostalgia. So maybe… if pets are popular it could happen? Sadly since it’s after Hoffman twins no mini coconut.
Also for the gendered AG I wish they just used the “brand” color of that red, rather than having pink. Both for all fans, and also brand consistency. It also reads less as AG in hot pink.
I feel like the kids/ag outfits today are more close to what children wear. Many of the lines I think relate more to things children like. (Like the pastel color iridescent) I feel like the 00’s clothes were more aspirational lol! Myself-peers/around the age of AG customer base would dress in graphic tees/layered long-short-tanks etc., and jeans/cargo pants…only. I think the birthstone collection is sort of close to that aspirational no 10 year old would wear sort of vibe…
I guess the dream of all dream would be new molds right?
Excited for the shop 🛍️✨
I'm always experimenting with different styles and ideas, and it's definitely nice to be able to make audio-only videos when there's a new release that I want to review quickly!
I swear American Girl made me a really big fan of the color burgundy. I never thought I'd say I prefer that to pink, but I agree with you! Maybe it could've been burgundy on one side and pink on the other hehe.
I see what you mean about the TM outfits. I have noticed how some of them seem like stuff a teacher in the 90s would wear LOL
And yes, new molds would be awesome!

Hey Jonny love the video!
Hi Emily! Thank you - I’m glad you love it! ❤️
Love the podcast episodes!
Thank you! I think I'll do some more audio-only eps from time to time!
I think they are goin to release them after the 3n$ of year sale. This video was really chill maybe you shud try more like this.
I'm still not into the printed eyelashes. They are pretty in some ways, but I think it makes them look older in a way I don't like. I also think it makes them look wrong next to the dolls without eyelashes. I just went to the American Girl Store this weekend and I was pretty much planning to either get a Truly Me 106 or Rebecca and I ended up with Rebecca because once I saw the eyelashes in person I really didn't love them.
If the hat set has a child’s size it’s possible it will fit me, I’m often stuck with youth motorcycle helmets because so few adult helmets are made to fit my small head.
“You jump, I jump”
That movie traumatized me lol
I bought myself for Christmas The Barbie Malibu House and camping Barbie doll
Congrats! I need to start giving my Barbie's more attention!
i good with the audio talk .. bc im working while listening 🎧
If there is a revamp of 88 she will get a new number...they did that with 27 and 100. They are basically the same doll...just a different outfit and painted lashes. I think there were 2-3 dolls they did that with. I believe the Fandom page tells which ones were remakes.
I won’t be buying the pet care set but I loved the tropical poodle since I had a toy poodle as a pet for many years. I miss my Blazer boy. ❤
I like the podcast as well, but I also like true video. I hate the truly me painted lashes on most of the dolls. I don’t mind them too much on the Corrine mold and on darker skinned dolls. We removed the paint on both the Nanea and joss mold truly mes and I think they look so much better.
I love the claudie mold. I hope they make her in a few skin tones.
Marketing the 90’s era stuff isn’t necessarily just for adult collectors. Girls who were 10 in 93 are now 40. That means there are a lot of kids in the 7-13 age group whose parents were 90’s kids. You see the flashbacks in multiple retailers- Walmart, target etc. It happened back around 2000 when all the 70s styles became popular again. It’s exactly what you feel when you collect the dolls from the catalogs that you looked at when you were a kid- but most people are probably buying for their kids. Not saying there aren’t adult collectors, but the bread and butter I suspect is still kids.
I think my main issue with the T-shirt dresses is that it just gives Barbie fashionista, and when you compare it to like older American girl of today outfits, it just feels like insulting
If it the large size from ag so I’m about to buy this robe😭😭
As a adult collector who loves pink…I will not be getting this drop 😂
I see your using my pic in ur thumbnail.... I hope u credited me we will see....
Hey! I didn’t mention the photo in the actual video (just in case American Girl had a problem with it - I didn't want the video taken down). I made the assumption that the owner of the image didn’t want to be identified because all of the sources I saw it hadn’t credited anyone. I’m so sorry. I’m going to pin a comment while the image is still up and link your channel. Or would you prefer I change the photo instead? Again, I'm so sorry - I didn’t know!
My generation makes nice clothes and accessories for AG dolls at a much cheaper price.
As someone who collects pleasant company in early American products I don't think I will be buying the new dolls I don't like the painted on eyelashes and I feel like the quality not just with quality control but the way that they have been slapping rainbow wigs onto all the dolls and everything just looks a plastic my life as set in my opinion I think American girl is a former shadow of itself
