Just Like You 46

Just Like You 46 is one of the newest Just Like You Dolls, released in 2009 along with twenty other dolls. She has the Sonali Mold--this is the first year since 1986 that a new mold has been used multiple times in the same year of its initial release!

The AG Wiki News

November 4th, 2009/ Lanie and Don't forget the rules!
  • News (and Google) has revealed that the Girl of the Year 2010 will be named "Lanie". Still, no article should be made until we have a last name!
  • We are all anticipating the Girl of the Year 2010, and of course there's always articles that need to be written. However, any article that's a violation of the Policy on Article Creation will get deleted immediately and the writer warned--and if you don't have a username, the IP gets a week-long ban. This has been a policy for a very long time because it prevents bare-bone run-by articles being written and filling the database with articles that are poorly done. Do things with care. Quality Over Quantity!
November 3rd, 2009/ More information about the Girl of the Year 2010, Lanie!
American Girl has released a little bit of information in conjuction with the Girl Of The Year Release parties. She is described as an an energetic girl who loves outdoor adventures[1]. Nothing has yet to be revealed about her race or looks.
Note that here on the AG Wiki a page is not to be created for the next Girl of the Year until sometime in December, when there is enough information to warrant a page.

October 10, 2009/Gwen Controversy
Starting with one little column, there has been a lot of to-do about the blogosphere regarding Gwen Thompson and her homelessness. This has been briefly discussed on her page, but there's no real reason to go into too many details here. You can see American Girl's press release here: [2] and Home Aid's Press Release here [3]
Sept 28th, 2009/Kirsten To Be Archived By This Holiday Season
The American Girl Shop now mentions that this is the last holiday season before Kirsten goes into the American Girl Archives. This means she will most likely be officially archived by this spring, much like Samantha.
Sept 25, 2009/The Archival of Kirsten
It's not yet been officially announced, but American Girl has started sending out letters stating that they will archive Kirsten Larson's entire collection; she and her collection will no longer be available for purchase online, at stores, or through catalogues with the exception of books. Given precident, this will probably be the last holiday season for Kirsten. The letter from AG can be seen here: [4]
Sept 20, 2009/ AG Offer
* Until 10/31/2009, add a free copy of Raising an American Girl to your card with any purchase. This book won't be available until 2010. [5]
Sept 6, 2009/ Visual Chart for JLY
A Visual Chart of American Girl of Today and Just Like You Dolls has been created. Now you can see all the dolls that have been in the Just Like You Line at a glance!
Sept 4, 2009/All In Together Now
All twenty new Just Like You dolls are up and have been classed by skin, hair, eyes, and face mold. There may still be some glitches in pictures, but they should clear up soon enough. Enjoy!
Sept 3, 2009/ The NEW Hotness!
The Fall Release is here, and it's a head-over-heels assortment of goodies!
There are four---strike that, TWENTY--new Just Like You Dolls. The new total of Just Like you Dolls in total (including retired ones) is 52! Not all of them will be available at the stores just yet because the case has to be redone, so some will be online only for a while.
For Chrissa to complete her collection:
For Rebecca:
For Julie:
For Just Like You:

For Bitty Baby:

For Bitty Twins:

Also, you can purchase the full-length movies for Kit, Molly, Felicity, and Samantha on sale for $5 each through Sept 30.
The holidays are going to be awesome!
Sept 2, 2009/New Stuff Anticipation!
The Fall/Winter reload is on the way down the turnpike. Stuff is due to be launched on Sept 3rd, 2009. It looks like four new Just Like You Dolls are coming out, as well as stuff for Julie and Rebecca and the Bitties. Also, Chrissa's collection will complete itself and her whole worls will go up--it will probably be more expensive than prior collections with three dolls and a lot of things. It's a little early for a new Meet Outfit, so the new JLY will probably come in the current meet outfit.
Remember, nothing goes up here until the pages are up on the AG site. It's also rumored that with all this new stuff, old stuff will be retired including four Just Like You Dolls. Don't mark it as gone until it's official, okay?
August 31, 2009/Sort Dolls by Hair, Eye, and Skin Colors!
I've recently categorised all the dolls by their hair, eye and skin colors (they were already categoried by face molds). So, for example, if you pull up [[Category:Blue-Eyed Dolls]], you will see EVERY doll that has blue eyes. This makes it really useful to see at a glance which dolls look like what, without having to remember the numbers directly. Check it out by looking at the categories at the bottom of doll articles or the category "Doll Anatomy"!
August 30, 2009/1000 Articles!
We officially hit 1000 articles today! *fanfare, trumpets, etc* The 1000th article is the Two-in-One Ice Skating Outfit. Congrats to eveyone who's done so much hard work to help reach this milestone!
August 28, 2009/GotY books for 2010 up on Amazon
The books for the Girl of the Year 2010 are up for preorder on Amazon.com:
The author is Jane Kurtz, who is a white woman. But she wrote the Saba book and a lot of books with black central characters. [6] Does this mean 100% a black GotY? We won't know for sure until they offer a preview around December and any leaks before then. If it is, she will be the first black GotY and join Sonali, Jess, and Marisol as a Girl of the Year of Color.
August 17, 2009/McDonalds, Free Shipping, and Totes
  • American Girl things have been available from McDonalds in Happy Meals since the 14th.
  • Get the Pretty Purple Tote for just $5 (+ s/h) [7]
  • For a limited time, Chrissa, Sonali, and Gwen can be purchased with free shipping, as well as Chrissa's Starter Collection and the two Best Friend Collections!
