I CAN'T DECIDE WHICH DOLL TO GET GUYS AGH HELP. I'm stuck between four (oops).
1. Rowena (Carpatina) - $98.00.
Pros:
- She's SO FREAKING PRETTY AHH.
- I've never had a doll from Celtic England (as the farthest back AG goes is the 1760s)
- I've never had a doll from Carpatina!
- She's currently on sale (her usual price is $124.00), and I don't want to get another doll, come back to get her later, and have to shell out an extra $26 that I could have saved if I'd bought her now.
Cons:
- Those curls. They're gorgeous, but I'm afraid they might be too hard to manage and/or limit what I can do with her.
- I already have a dress like hers for my AG dolls (although it wouldn't fit her and hers wouldn't fit my AG dolls.)
- I would have to buy her new clothes too, as none of my AG clothes would fit her.
- If I got her, I may not get Elinor (last doll) because of their similar appearances.
2. Lydia (A Girl for All Time) - $110.00.
Pros:
- SHE. IS. SO. PRETTY. AGH. Especially her face mold. Every AGAT doll has a unique one, and hers is my favorite by far.
- I LOVE her time period.
- I've never had an AGAT doll!
- I don't have any dolls who really look like her.
Cons:
- Not a big fan of the meet outfit. It's just a bit too plain.
- I already have a doll from around her time period (Felicity), although I use Felicity as a modern doll and would keep Lydia in her time period.
- I would have to buy her new clothes too, as none of my AG clothes would fit her (although if I did get Elinor (last doll), they could share.)
3. Lea Clark (AG) - $110.00.
Pros:
- Only around for one year - that means I should get her this year if I'm going to, and I shouldn't wait until the last minute either.
- HAIR GOALS GUYS.
- Diversity - yay!
- My AG clothes would fit her.
Cons:
- I don't like her face mold. AT ALL. I've had a hard time connecting with any of my dolls with that face mold (except Rebecca), and all the dolls that have come out with that mold I've never really liked (Nellie, Chrissa, etc.). I don't want to spend over a hundred dollars on her and then not connect with her. I think I'd have to see her in person to tell, but none of my friends have her and my parents don't take me to AG places anymore. *sigh*
- I've really been wanting more historical dolls lately, and ones I would keep in their time period (which I would do with Rowena, Lydia, and the next doll I'm going to show you.)
4. Elinor (A Girl for All Time) - probably $110.00.
~ Elinor's not out yet, but she's due to arrive sometime this year (September/October ish) ~
Pros:
- Okay, first of all, Elizabethan England? How cool is that?!?
- She shares my name, which is awesome.*
- I've never had an AGAT doll.
- SHE. IS. SO. PRETTY. I. CAN'T. STAND. IT.
- Her face mold is right up there with Lydia's.
Cons:
- I seriously have zero clue how to care for that hair. I suppose some tutorials would come out when she did, though.
- Not a HUGE fan of her MO, although I could live with it.
- If I got her, I may not get Rowena, due to their similar appearances.
- My AG clothes wouldn't fit her, although if I also got Lydia they could share clothes.
- Also, the image you see of Elinor above is a prototype, so idk if she'll look like that when she comes out. She'll probably be really close, but still.
Which doll do you guys think I should get?? Comment below your top 1-3 (reasons would be nice, but you don't have to if you don't want to). Thanks, it would really help me out!!
Namarië,
