I would prefer the Girls of the Year be out only one year-from January 1 to December 31, not December 31 to December 31 two years down the line. However if AG is going to keep them around longer, I wish they would rerelease earlier Girls of the Year for limited time. Like having Lanie and some of her clothes or collection available on Earth Day.
I know I wish American Girl would just stick with that and I did not like the Girl of the Year for a long time because they wouldn't go when they're year ended
Kailey was my first doll, Lindsey was my dream doll and Joss what I wanted my frist doll to be having disability myself it's cool that they did that. American Girl needs to make more doll's like Joss. They should have released Josie with makenna in 2012. We should as AG to make dolls with disabilities and chronic illnesses.
Yes! They have things you can buy, or add on to make your doll disabled, but for actual characters, correct me if I’m wrong, there are like, four! And one isn’t even a doll you can buy! We. Need. More. Representation!
🤣😂 i thought I was the only one who hated Lucianas dress! And same with Blaires dress (not her meet one) I always thought it was so weird Also totally agree on the American Girl music video things like ughhhhhh what?!?!
About Jess... I actually had to move to Germany for my parents work 🤣 Also I have a Kaoley and she thankfully isn't Yellow! And I'm so glad because I paid $19 for her. I totally agree with all of these! Great video 👍
First, I’d like to say, I used to not really like Marie Grace’s face mold, but your Marie Grace is is literally making me fall in love with her! Second, I thought the exact same of Blaire’s floral flair outfit, like AG how did you ever think this was trendy? Third, this video idea is really, really creative and I really enjoyed watching it! I haven’t been on AGtube a lot lately, but it’s AGtubers like you that inspire me to keep making videos! Love your channel and this video!💖💙
I have Lanie and absolutely love the doll, her collection and her books! She is also is most like me haha with the gardening and love for nature. This video was fun to watch :)
AYYYYY the promo haha thank you so much man!!! alsooo 4:02 the fact that i bought 33 just because she looked like elita carpenter also also yes luciana's meet outfit definitely is on the nose
hahahaha i am dying at the part where you talk about joss’s music videos! my friend has and loves joss and i made her profile picture on my phone joss doing that creepy wink 😂
I personally love Luciana's meet dress and own a version of it. But I respect that you don't. To each thier own, that's why so many different dolls and outfits exist.
Defiantly Lea is super nostalgic as she was the doll out as GOTY when I first got into American Girl. I got into AG right in November 2016 when my grandma gave me my first doll, Molly. For Christmas, I begged for Lea and my parents were like “can’t we get it for you for your birthday?” And I was all sassy like, “no!!! She’ll be gone by then!” Lol I have a lot of memories looking at the holiday catalogs featuring Lea and her hut. I got Lea and her dvd for Christmas from my grandma. I was so excited to have a friend for Molly
You are 1000% correct about Kanani and 0% correct about Saige! Yes I’m biased, and no, I won’t elaborate! Seriously though I hope you continue this series, it was a lot of fun to watch!!
I bought a Kailey with damaged skin color. The lady at AG with whom I spoke said it was a dye used in whatever factory Kailey came in. AG, for no cost to me, completely replaced all the limbs and the head. I think she was the first doll to have streaked hair.
@@AllycatlovesAG just saying it kinda funny how the defect makes her give her a California vibe Sense you said she turns yellow which isn’t true she turns orange
Grace will always have a special place in my heart because she was the first American girl that I got to go to the store and pick out and pay with fir my own money
@@AllycatlovesAG well I have watched the all my dolls videos a lot last month. I really find it interesting to hear how you found the dolls and where and one of the most interesting is Victoria
However, Lindsey is very hard to find on the secondary market because of her low sale. Going along with that people want Lindsey now and is like I said hard to get.
Not much I disagree with overall but I did kind of find your take on Nicki's appearance being generic kind of ironic, but it says more about the brand AG has become rather than what it was back then. I was in second grade when Nicki came out, peak loving AG years for me, I woke up early on 1/01/2007 to see the new GOTY and I immediately fell in love with her. I had Felicity as a redhead to see myself in, but Nicki was the first doll who really looked like me, I thought, at the time, with her wavy hair and freckles. This was back when all the Just Like Me dolls had basically just one hairstyle: long, straight hair with bangs. Can't remember exactly when they finally started experimenting with different textures and lengths but it was after Nicki that there was finally at least a pinch of variety. She was also to my memory the first doll with freckles. Again I'm not fact-checking anything but I got my JLM in 2006. She had long straight red hair and bangs and blue eyes. Classic face. No other distinct features because they weren't really offered at the time. I mean, if you don't give the ginger dolls freckles, I'm quite sure you're not offering them. So I was deeply satisfied when I got my Nicki doll at the AG Place in NYC.
Great video, my favorite GOTY is Joss and Kanani! I think it you should make a video comparing basic items from AG and OG. For example you could compare the Ag kitchen to the OG kitchen, the AG beds to the OG beds.
This is a cute idea! You should definitely do this with other lines! I like but also dislike Isabelle. I dislike her in the sense that she is stereotypical and a little boring, but I also like her because she makes me nostalgic because she introduced me to AG and her classic mold look is what made me love AG so much :)
Another incredible video! You never fail to amaze me! I do agree with you about saige, she is kinda forgettable.....oh and I seriously loved the part when you said *McKenna Sprained her ANCLE oh my gosh!* *GRACE MASTER CHEFF* ~Hilarious~ Anyways, this was awesome, have a wonderful rest of your day! ♡
I and probably other people would love to hear what you think of the girls of the year 2022. Please do a video😊. If you haven't seen them here's a link: ruclips.net/video/mb-HpsJzqq8/видео.html What do think about a Wellie Wisher goty? And I think I know what your going to say about Corinne's hair lol ~Zoe
Okay so I actually read Jess's book recently and oh my goodness the parents were completely unfit and borderline neglectful/abusive. Jess's parents straight up ignored her most of the book and just let this 10 year old girl run around ancient ruins by herself. Her friend Sarita's parents were pretty much abusive to her. They made her look after her younger brothers and drag buckets full of water up a hill to wash laundry by hand at 10 years old. I mean come on.
Something I would change about Jess is giving her a thicker wig. Not a big deal but it is my least favorite thing about her. When I have undone her braids to try a different style, I usually end up just putting them right back in pigtail braids because her wig is just too thin. Gorgeous doll otherwise! In my opinion, Lea is the most beautiful AG doll and I think she has one of the best collections as well. Lanie's camper does happen to be my favorite collection piece though.
I agree that the AG videos are so cringeworthy. I worked at AG when Blair launched. I must have dressed and styled 20 Blair dolls! Her meet dress is cute but very thin fabric. I didn’t like her overalls since they showed the doll’s bare waist area. Kira was disappointing but her collection is cool. Again, the videos are terrible and so cheesy! I think Gabriela was the worst doll release. Her hair is styled like a 40 year old. Grace is adorable and Lea is stunning. I think the leaks for the GOTY 22 look great. Just another comment. AG does weird things like the Wellie wishers have a circus outfit (ringmaster), the lion, etc...zoo items. but then they release Kira with animal activism and animal care. It makes no sense. And to promote the Olympics when China is hosting is against human rights. It’s definitely not the company Rowland started since the sellout. Great video and fun to hear your opinions!!
That's cool that you worked for AG! I'm in the middle of writing a paper for social justice about animal rights, so your comment is very relevant to my life right now haha!
Girl of the year are meant to represent the year not be timeless all the girl of the year’s outfit are dated almost non were timeless Luciana fits her time period perfectly 2018
@@Razzberry_dollz Galaxy is very 2010’s, but the trend was dying by the time Luciana came out. If she wore those outfits in 2016, it wouldn’t have been as late
I agree that doll recycling is SUPER annoying (especially with DOCs, cuz that's lazy) but ironically I would not complain if they recycled 62, 4, and 58. lol I can't help myself.
As much as I love dolls like 62, having them in my collection when they are retired makes me proud as a collector, though a doll like 62 with longer hair, 4 without bangs etc would be unique
I would have made Saige a Kaya mold with brown eyes I would give Leah black hair and really lean to marine biology I would've made Gwen the main character of the three I would have made Isabella a dark skin addy mold or Sonali mold and given her a different interest I would've made Blaire a classic mold and made enter a chef competition, not a wedding planner I would've made Kira an Aboriginal
This is mine Lindsey bigger collection Kaily her appearance Marisol her meet Outfits. Jess nothing. Nikki better second name. Mia her prototype look. Chrissa her apearance and meet Outfits. Laine nothing Kanani nothing. Mckenna her name apearance meet Outfits story. Saige name. Isabelle apearance not be Dance Grace story meet Outfits. Lea nothing Gabirella not the same doll as 46 and collection. Luciana nothing Blaire story. Joss name and not stop motion Kira apearance and not stop motion Corinne most be Jess Mold
Thanks for watching! Who is your favourite goty?
Blaire is still my favorite :)
Grace (2015)
based on nostalgia, saige
Just based on doll- Lindsey is my favorite, I love her hair 😍
Hmm, probably Chrissa she is so pretty i love her hair

it was a benefit for me, because i really wanted corinne, but didn’t have the chance to get her in 2022.

I love this idea! You should definitely do this for the historical dolls!
I plan too! It will be much harder though
I think you can do it. I believe in you.
🤣😂 i thought I was the only one who hated Lucianas dress!
And same with Blaires dress (not her meet one) I always thought it was so weird
Also totally agree on the American Girl music video things like ughhhhhh what?!?!
I love Blaire’s meet dress. The only outfit that was a miss for me was the pink one
@AllycatlovesAG yeah her meet one is so cute the pink one is just weird tho
I agree with all those things I thought I was the only one like WHAT
My mom and I agreed that the Joss’s eye glare was the creepiest thing ever. 😂😂
About Jess... I actually had to move to Germany for my parents work 🤣 Also I have a Kaoley and she thankfully isn't Yellow! And I'm so glad because I paid $19 for her. I totally agree with all of these! Great video 👍
Honestly, I know a lot of people that have had to move for work so I think that is relatable for a lot odd kids 😊

I would really love a Japanese American GOTY for 2022. If we get another Josefina mold I’m going to cry

I wish that Chrissa’s collection included her Siamese cat.
I bought a Kailey with damaged skin color. The lady at AG with whom I spoke said it was a dye used in whatever factory Kailey came in. AG, for no cost to me, completely replaced all the limbs and the head. I think she was the first doll to have streaked hair.
My fav would be JESS!!!!!!
I ❤️ Jess I want her sooooooooo much
It think they should have given Joss a different name because it sounds so similar to Jess.
Thank you so much for saying to subscribe to boysmeetsdolls!! I would definitely agree on most of your opinions!! I loved watching this, amazing job!!
Luciana was my first AG doll ever and her hair does tangle easily and she definitely needs good care and now that I look back her outfit was not good
It tangles? It's straight... just brush it from the bottom to the top and you should be good
It’s more or turning orange
Which tbh I don’t mind on her sense it makes her looks more tanned which fit the Cali girl vibe
@@Razzberry_dollz For Kailey? It’s a manufacturing defect. Was not done on purpose
@@AllycatlovesAG just saying it kinda funny how the defect makes her give her a California vibe
Sense you said she turns yellow which isn’t true she turns orange
Grace will always have a special place in my heart because she was the first American girl that I got to go to the store and pick out and pay with fir my own money

This was a great history lesson/ facts and opinions on GOTY 😂
Thank you so much!
Great video, my favorite GOTY is Joss and Kanani! I think it you should make a video comparing basic items from AG and OG. For example you could compare the Ag kitchen to the OG kitchen, the AG beds to the OG beds.
I don’t own much furniture so owning items is much easier to compare them just photos

Isabelle was the first GOTY I saw in person, so she is very nostalgic to me. I plan to do this with historical dolls in the future
Ooh this is cool! Can I do a similar video about truly me dolls? It seems like a fun idea
Sure! Good luck with Truly Me’s… there are so many and way less to critique

@@AllycatlovesAG yay can't wait

The music videos we just don't talk about them
AllycatlovesAG, I love your channel!
My favorite goty is Joss, Corine, Gwynn, and Blaire.
Okay so I actually read Jess's book recently and oh my goodness the parents were completely unfit and borderline neglectful/abusive.

They made her look after her younger brothers and drag buckets full of water up a hill to wash laundry by hand at 10 years old. I mean come on.
I want to read her book now... I'm intrigued.
Isn't the stuff Sarita has to do pretty common for kids in some countries?
The music videos....😟 like why is it a thing
It gets them views… but they are so creepy
@@AllycatlovesAG yessssss I know like the whole thing of carrying Joss in the surf board the wink has scarred us all
My friend had Mia and I had Emily and they look super similar
I always thought Emily looked like 39
Something I would change about Jess is giving her a thicker wig. Not a big deal but it is my least favorite thing about her. When I have undone her braids to try a different style, I usually end up just putting them right back in pigtail braids because her wig is just too thin. Gorgeous doll otherwise!
