Iceheart Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Brand new Historical American Girl Doll, Courtney from 1986 - https://www.americangirl.com/ American Girl MC’s are always 9 years old, so Courtney was born in 1977 and is an “X-ennial” who would put herself in Gen X. Dunno about you, but I had a very, very similar dolly and me Care Bears sleepshirt in 1986. Yes, I do feel very old right now. Also, fun fact, 1986 is when I got my Samantha Parkington doll, if I recall correctly. Also, why isn’t her name Jennifer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filthy Jawa Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Should absolutely be Jennifer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 To make you feel even older, Courtney could be a grandma by now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerina Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Courtney's rad school supplies set looks almost exactly like my dream school supplies set that my mother would never buy me and my current school/office supplies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceheart Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 My mom let me Lisa Frank everything, so I did have stuff like that. Also, the Caboodles set! I didn’t think they made Caboodles anymore, but I saw one for sale at JoAnns the other day. I’m also glad they gave her a little Molly doll, although I can tell you that in 1986 the catalogs were half-pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerina Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Target was selling Caboodles last year! They might still be but really...who's been to a Target this year? I wanted one but talked myself out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceheart Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 Joanns was selling them as craft supply containers, and honestly, they may make a valid argument for owning one. Though I may just keep my eyes peeled for one at the thrift store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
