Retired Items
American Girl company has retired a lot of items some from every historical girl, except best friends.
Even the today girls have retired items.
Felicity is one of the dolls who has the most retired items probably because she was the first doll to come to the historical collection.
Samantha has some retired items but she is a very popular doll so they don’t retire many things from her.
Molly has even more retired items than Felicity. For Molly they retired items and then made them differently.
Kirsten has a fair amount of retired things but if you look on Ebay most of them are there.I think that they retired most of the good things, sometimes I look on Ebay to see if there is anything good.
Josefina has so little retired items it is hard to believe. Again I think they retired the good things.
Addy’s retired items are pretty easy to find on Ebay. American girl did not retire so much of Addy’s things.
Kit has only four retired items! that is great for her, but you never know they could retire anything at anytime.
Kaya has only two retired items! But then she been around for five years, unlike most of the dolls who aren’t best friends Kaya only has five outfits.
the today dolls have so many retired items I cannot count them.

Felicity wasn’t the first of the historical collection. The Pleasant Company started American Girl with Molly, Samantha, and Kirsten in 1986. Felicity came in as number four in the 1990’s.

I don’t think Samantha should be retired as I don’t have any of her things. And now I am not going to be able to.
I really want Jip, her dog.

I was lucky to get a hold of one of the Samantha dolls before thet added her to the Archives. I didn’t think they should have taken her out of the collection because she was one of the original dolls, and by far, one of the most popular. Is that what they are going to be doing? Getting rid of the most popular dolls one at a time?

I am going to the american girl store on august 22nd! I am gunna get my dolls ears pierced and eat at the bistro, and im buying the honey puppy pjs. My grandma is buying me the back to school set, my friend is buying me the outdoor play outfit for my birthday, and my mom is buying me the bue logo sweatshirt! My doll, Kaylie, will have a whole bunch of stuff (and maybe kits bedding) by the time were done! But it really is going to be frustrating that when i go there, i wont be able to see samantha, and all the other things that have retired in there original packaging. Too bad.
