My thoughts on the new American Girl Historical doll
Hello everyone! So I know I just did something like this a few posts ago but this is a different doll. I also know that Courtney came out a while before Christmas so as usaul I am a bit late anyway let's get started.
This is Courtney Moore she is nine years old and an expert gamer. Her story is set in 1986, When a school assignment gives Courtney the chance to create her own game, she knows just what it means to stand out: a female hero. She's always wished there were more girl characters in the arcade games she plays, and this is her chance to make that change. She creates the character Crystal Starshooter, who's bold and brave and can handle a situation - qualities she wants for herself. That is most of her backstory if you want to hear about more of her story I am sure you can find it online or by reading her book. I think Courtney has an amazing story and it has definitly not been done before. Good job American Girl! She is also a really pretty doll and doesn't really look like any of the other dolls so that's good. Courtney comes with her first book and she is dressed in some pink leggings, a denim skirt, some white boots, a blue crop top with a purple tank top underneath, and a pink scrunchie. Courtney is priced at $110.00 just like all of the dolls Let's move on to the rest of Courtney's collection.
Next up is Courtney's PAC-MAN Arcade game. This is so cool because you can actually play the game. This is priced at $149.00 which is expensive but since it is big and since you can play the game it is only a tad bit overpriced.
This is Courtney's Pleasant Company Molly doll. This set includes: Molly mini doll, mini meet molly book, Pleasant Company box, and lastly mini Pleasant Company catalog. This set is priced at $30.00 which is not overpriced at all and it is pretty cute set.
This is Courtney's Care Bears pajamas for 18 inch dolls. This outfit is super cute. It is one of my favorite of Courtney's outfits. This set is priced at $28.00 which for three things is a bit overpriced. This set is includes: Care Bears nightgown, light blue fuzzy socks, and a matching blue scrunchie. I really like this set it is so cute.

This set is priced at $225.00. This is a WAY overpriced but it is such a cute set I will not rant to much.
This is Courtney's Care Bears Pajamas for girls. This is priced at $40.00 which in my opinion is very overpriced, because all your getting is a nightgown. But again all of this is just my opinion.

Well guys that is the end of this post. Let me know what you think about Courtney's collection.
I like how different Courtney is from their other dolls. I love how she has an American Girl doll of her own. My favorite of the outfits is either the skirt and suspenders outfit or the Splatter Print dress. Great post.
ReplyDeleteAs a kid from the 80s this doll rocks! Way to go AG finally getting to the 80s. The doll is cute and the gamer aspect is right on for the time. I adore the cardigan and sleepover set but the arcade version of Pac Man is the best. Great review!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mckayla I like the suspenders skirt to. Thanks log Dad I am glad I got your approval.
