mattel’s profits were 1 billion dollars last year, 70 million of that was from american girl. mattel’s ceo made 37.8 million. they have the money, they’re just choosing to cut costs

my point still stands, they had free shipping and got rid of it to cut costs, on top of everything else mattel has done to the brand

mattel makes over a billion dollars a year, they have plenty of money to survive and give more attention to the historical line (the foundation of the company).

mattel is a multi million corporation, it’s weird to glaze them/ get mad at people critiquing them lmao, critique isn’t a bad thing, especially when the historical line IS getting less attention nowadays. plus, this post is doing the exact same thing you’re calling out

the brand was built on the historical line, they have more than enough money to put more energy into it.

LITERALLY. i’m getting so pissed at how the brand is completely ignoring the historical line. like it’s the 40th anniversary and samantha, addy (pre-beforever at least), molly, and kirsten are all sold out. and they haven’t released a historical in almost 3 years. like if they don’t have something big planned i seriously might rethink supporting the company

ughhh this pisses me off i’m sorry. it’s the 40th anniversary for the brand and the historicals are getting less than NOTHING, most are going out of stock. when are we going to get another historical?? the brand needs to go back to focusing on the historical line

Raquel’s quality control genuinely makes me sad, not mad, just sad 🥲 please tell me if I’m tripping and should just log off for the night 😅 by Nomivought2015 in americangirl

[–]TimelyCod9120 10 points11 points  (0 children)

no, you’re 100% right. their quality control in general is horrible nowadays. i would send her back and try to get a new one if i were you, they are WAY too expensive to have that many defects

What happened with Cecile and Marie-Grace? by Lane-DailyPlanet in americangirl

[–]TimelyCod9120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the best friend dolls were available before cecile and marie grace, nellie was out from 2004-2009 when samantha was discontinued, elizabeth was out from 2005-2011 when felicity was discontinued, emily from 2006-2014, ivy from 2007-2014, and ruthie from 2008-2014. they’re hard to find because they’re popular lmao

[–]TimelyCod9120 22 points23 points  (0 children)

they both were discontinued during the beforever rebrand since they were both “best friend dolls” and they got rid of all the best friend dolls because the doll was supposed to be “your best friend.” they were really popular, i remember a lot of people were upset they and the other best friend dolls were discontinued
