The My Twinn doll line is back and it still has plenty of loyal fans. One of our readers, Lily, has shared some of her My Twinn and American Girl doll photos and descriptions with us – thanks Lily!!
The doll on the far left has the Wendi face mold from the 2003 China era. She has fair skin, light blue eyes, and golden brown hair. She is wearing a hand-smocked dress that was bought on eBay for $25 that included the dress, half-slip, and pantaloons.
The doll in the middle also has the Wendi face mold from the 2008 Virginia era. She has dark brown hair, green-brown eyes, and fair skin. She is wearing a one piece jumper dress from eBay that cost $16 (including shipping). I added the hoop skirt for extra fullness.
The doll on the far right has the Audrey face mold from the 2003 China era. She has very fair skin, blue eyes, and light blond hair. She is also wearing a hand-smocked dress that I bought on eBay for $25 that included the dress, half-slip, and pantaloon.
I like the My Twinn dolls because they’re more lifelike and larger than American Girl dolls at 23″ tall. Finding handmade outfits for them is enjoyable. They’re more expensive than American Girl, but it’s fun to have a doll that looks so much like you. Guess which one is Mini-Lily!
American Girl Kit and My Twinn Audrey look like sisters in this picture. Again, it was a complete accident that they are wearing similar dresses and look so much alike. In the background is a Seymour Mann Avery doll and to the right of Kit is Molly in her birthday outfit.
Felicity and Elizabeth are posing with their My Twinn counterparts. I custom ordered the My Twinn dresses from an eBay seller who makes girl and doll dresses for AG. They were $15 apiece (not a typo!) and included the dress, hoop skirt, mob cap, and purse. I honestly didn’t intend for the dresses to match Felicity’s and Elizabeth’s; I just happened to like those fabrics.

Kemper and Monique have very cheap wigs (10 and under), maybe you can find a nice one there?
BTW, the Kemper and Monique wigs ARE AG quality.
Ok, just watched Princess Protection Program, it was AWESOME!!! I loved it!!! It was way better than Dadnapped!!!!!! I love Demi Lovato!! (Just not in Camp Rock!!) Sry, if some people don’t like this, but it was awesome!!!
ahhh, i just got metal bands on my teeth for braces! Its AWFUL, its digging into my tongue and my cheek, and I feel like yanking them off with super strong plyers. But my mom just payed like 3000$ for them, so i gotta go through it. Anyone else have braces?
Nope, bluntly I refused. The doctors eventually gave up trying to talk me into it, as did my parents. My teeth straightened themselves anyway, with no help from braces.
I’m sorry you’re in pain though.
I have braces. I actually went to the ortho yesterday. oooowwww. period. They shortened my wire again (wait, sorry, somehow I messed it up by touching it w/ my tongue, so they got me a new wire. two more trips till they’re off, for good! (hallelujah!) I’ve had them since July 07
bouna notte!
Uggh just ate 2 cookies I made and I think i’m sick =P
Ouch. I’ve had my braces off for a month they’d hurt real bad!!
I hope u r ok Selena!
i have had braces since may 2008
Are there any free shipping codes going on now?
No free shipping codes.
About my above, just SLOWLY scroll down,and there are some pictures of Rebecca. SHE HAS RUSSIAN NESTING DOLLS AND A PHONOGRAPH!
See, your name linked me to a different blog before.
That looks suspiciously like a birthday set…
Actually, on second thought… AG wouldn’t put on display something that isin’t released yet, would they? She likley will get a phonograph and nesting dolls, but I’m not so sure about the othe stuff (notice the stars in the table cloth, too anachronic looking)
Sara,i wanted to watch princess protection program so much! but i was’nt allowed to because i had to help my dad plant our neighbor’s trees!
bookworm,are those rebecca’s real things? or did an ebay seller make them?!?
Priscilla, it’ll be on again tonight, and tomorrow.
yea. but i guess we never know…
come on AG, post the new outfits!!!
o btw every1, i have posted a contest on my website for the best GOTY 2010 ideas. please enter, i will post the winner July 4th
My cousin said monday.
I’ll enter.
thnx lena. my entry doesnt count btw. i was just sharing my opinion.
everyone else, plz enter!!
lena, i LOVED your idea!! really original
Ok, so you know it was me. I explained it when I replied.
Thank you! I think an environmental girl would be good now, especially with all the talk about global warming and hybrid cars and stuff.
BTW, I heard global warming reversed itself and it’s getting colder. Not feeling that cold in FL though.
not feeling the cold in alabama either!! lol
yea, they do need a doll that supports the enviroment, besides kailey.
And a black girl. Seriously. The only black character so far has been Addy, and their minority to white ratio is seriously off.
yes, or white/black. AA girls only have either a JLY or Addy option, not a GOTY
Heck, I don’t really care, juat as long as she’s part black. She can even be girly and wear pink. I’m gonna make my own character anyway. I’d just like the option to have a black GOTY.
I don’t believe in global warming. I know everyone’s obsessed w/ it though.. It’s going too far.. they’re raising taxes on fossil fuels, electricity, etc; in hope to make more ppl “go green” so that we don’t a burn to death. I wonder if the makers will cut back?
Well, good thing I’ll be staying up late Sunday night!
Unless of course they don’t get it up until I go to bed!
I don’t believe in global warming either. It’s ridiculous, With Disney Channel doing “Friends For Change”, it would be much better if they chose to help PEOPLE instead. I have nothing against it, but I’m just saying….
Ug, I’m sick of all the commercials for Friends For Change!!!!!
I never believed it, but I much prefer being “green”. Then again, I was always “green”. My mom grew up in rural Poland. We eat only organic food (we don’t like to poison ourselves), our dryer has never been used as we prefer to line dry, and we walk everywhere instead of driving (because a park that’s less than a mile away, why would we drive?)
Global Warming did exist, but not to the extent that they had us believing.
Ya, I don’t believe Global Warming either. The media is making a big deal out of it like they always do.
we’re organic, we drive (the only things that are less than 5 miles away are sonic and a gas station lol) , we use a washer + drier . We are sorta green. We use the swirly light bulbs
but I’m sick of the “help moootthhhheerrrr earth!” and the whole obama will make the global warming thing? *gag* the media … I might go make “media” targets to shot!
so, you can just say I’m not exactly a tree hugger, and I’m not going to chain myself aroung a tree that’s going to be cut down. It’s a TREE. Plus, all those “go green!” “save the grass!” ppl prob. use paper..
where is everyone? I hope I didn’t scare you off with my “non-tree hugger” speech
Math exam.
No u didn’t Selena!!
I’m tired of hearing about Michael Jackson!! But, it gets Jon and Kate out of the spotlight and work out their divorce.
ok, good!
And I have to go buy a swim team suit, b/c they 4got to order mine! I’m not very lucky! LOL And I want to buy some converse….
we are about to go see “up” b/c 2day is my (now) 4 yr. old bro’s bday
i believe in Global Warming, rather strongly in fact.
but thats just my opinion, and its really cool to hear other ppls opinion on global warming
MJ looks like a girl. or, looked I guess. Then again, unless they creamated (LOL I have no clue how to spell that.. CREAM-ate-ed.
) him, he must still look like a girl. He went a little crazy there.. a while back.. I’ve never even seen a pic of him b4 yesterday! I know, I’m out of it, right? But I don’t sit around looking at celebs, I have a life too! He was pretty scary though, and holding that baby over the railing? I started yelling at the TV!
Why are ppl veg.s? I mean, the meat is already dead… sorry, that was random.
GTG bye!
ok, I really have to go, but
OMGOSH I just found out I’m polish!!!!!!! g2g
Selena- my mom showed me what he used to look like and I at 1st said “Who is that?” And my mom said “Michael Jackson.” And I was like “Dang!!”
Oh, and my mom turned Grease on last night and called it the High School Musical of the 70′s. I recognized Didi Conn cause she played Stacy Jones on Shining Time Station. (That’s what I’ll remember the late George Carlin from. Not his bad stuff. I never heard of that till his death!)
cool selena!!!
Sara, HSH was based on Grease. It is the original HSH.
i strongly believe in global warming,actually.p.s. lena,how much do karito kids cost?
do you guys like friends forever dolls?
99$ on the site, but I’ve seen (and gotten) them for 50-70$ on Costco and in hospital gift shops.
The scare me. The Friends Forever have creepy facemolds and eyes.
oh. I read that somewhere but forgot till Lena told me. Thnx Lena!
