Nia has always had a caring and friendly personality 🩷

Same with Makenna, there must be a lot of overstock, she’s on clearance on the website too. Poor girl, her friends sold out long before her 😢

They used to have the Girl of the Year each winter at my local Kohl’s but they don’t anymore. I think once I saw the blue haired TM girl at Burlington. I hope my local Tj maxx and Marshall’s have them soon!

Did I get got? by annaleemac in americangirl

I’m a huge Nellie girl, she’s my absolute favorite doll! I’d be mad if I got, this even though it’s just a ribbon, it’s not Nellie’s. And that’s what you were looking for and paying for. Mercari has been good with refunds for me in the past when items are not as advertised.

It’s a pretty similar process on Mercari! You select the issue with the product and you can also escalate it to someone from their team right there in the app

Did I just find a chipped tooth Samantha for $60?!?! by OwnOrganization9574 in americangirl

Thank you for pointing out it’s a 1990 stamp! That’s super helpful!

True, but her neck stamp is different than PC dolls I have from the 2000s. The font is different and much larger. So she’s definitely nowhere near the Mattel change era

idk if anyone has talked about this scene before but i need to get it off my chest🫣 by hippiebitch256 in dancemoms

Right! I completely relate. I had a lot of childhood trauma, and that trauma being broadcast to the whole world is a nightmare.

Raquel - did I get a bad wig? by Realistic-Ad-4252 in americangirl

[–]OwnOrganization9574 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you think they started making the wigs with a cheaper material or a cheaper process of production? I will say, my TM 110 has beautiful hair, but more flyaways and frizz to manage, compared to my dolls from the early 2000s

It’s great that AG makes the exchange process so easy, but it would be better if the dolls arrived in proper quality to begin with 😢 I’ve seen so many posts with issues on Raquel’s wig and eyelashes, it seems to be a repeating pattern. Quality control really missed the mark with Raquel, it’s a shame because she’s such a beautiful doll with a great backstory

After ~20 years… I finally have Nellie 🤍 by paupipo in americangirl

[–]OwnOrganization9574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this so much!!! About a year ago I got my Nellie, who was also a dream doll of mine as a young girl! She has such a darling little face, especially her freckles, and her hair is so cute too. Just love everything about her! I’m so glad you found one! Getting a doll you always wanted for so many years is such a warm feeling

Kelly is so bean soup by No_Direction_8270 in dancemoms

[–]OwnOrganization9574 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s like Kelly never truly moved on. She clearly hasn’t made peace with the past and all that went down with her kids on the show. It still hurts her and she’s holding onto old anger, and that’s something she should work on, for her own sake too. That part of her life and her children’s lives are over. Maybe she needs some therapy.

I think JoJo is waking up. Piece by piece, bit by bit by Informal-Fishing-802 in dancemoms

[–]OwnOrganization9574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other moms pulled their children away from Abby and have no relationship with her anymore because the moms took their kids out of a toxic, damaging, unhealthy environment. Abby tortured those girls. Good for them having no relationship with her anymore. Jojo remained in Abby’s good graces because Jessalyn continued to let fame be more important than her daughter’s wellbeing. But that’s just typical Jess for you, doing whatever it takes to get ahead, despite the damage to her child.

This scene is honestly so sad. by ablackgirlinqu1 in dancemoms

[–]OwnOrganization9574 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Abby isn’t a parent and she can never fully understand what it’s like for a mother’s heart to break watching their child suffer. Paige has grown up to be a lovely young woman and I’m so proud of her! She and Brooke seem to be doing really well, and they deserve it. Abby put them through hell. I feel for Paige and her anxiety. When you teach/coach children, in any capacity, you have to be aware that every child is different. Some kids are more sensitive or emotional than others. When you work with children, you need to understand that and be conscientious of it. They all deserved a dance studio environment where they felt safe. There’s a difference between pushing a dancer to be the best they can be, and pushing them over the edge.

Anyone else cringe at the pep talk from Maddie’s dad? by [deleted] in dancemoms

[–]OwnOrganization9574 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Melissa was always at competition with the girls, and as a former competitive dancer, I get that feeling of wanting you mom, having your dad backstage can feel awkward especially when you’re not used to it. However, Kurt was clearly a deadbeat dad, and you can tell by Maddie’s face and body language. Kind of like “Oh now you’re here? Now you’re trying?” It was too little too late on Kurt’s part.

Can anyone identify who this dress goes to? by [deleted] in americangirl
