Extra Extra Read All About It: JLY Retirement Rumors? Or Truth?

We all know that Chrissa, Sonali, and Gwen won't be available anymore once the supplies run out, as they are Limited Edition "dolls of the year." However, recent chatter on the boards has stated that eight of the Just Like You dolls will no longer be carried in the American Girl stores as of September 3rd, 2009. Several other outfits and accessories will also be out the door.

Will they still be available online? Will they be completely retired altogether? Not sure which one is the true answer....but we wanted to let everyone know what is going on, especially in case this news effects your voting in our polls to the right. ;)

Here are the numbers:
JLY #1
JLY #2

JLY #5 (in our Part 6 poll)
JLY #7

JLY #11
JLY #12

JLY #14 (in our Part 5 poll)
and
JLY #21 (in our Part 4 poll)

Rumors say that there will be "new" JLY dolls released in September to fill the gap left in the store merchandise by the 8 missing dolls. So even though it is sad to see dolls possibly go into retirement, it is exciting to think we might have new JLY dolls to drool over very soon.

Again, here is the website for you to look at the dolls with their JLY numbering system.

I'm so sad that these dolls are retiring, but at least there might be new dolls.
We have been wanting to get #5, #14, and #21. And now, possibly #7!

That's terrible! I wish they'd keep them... but there will be new dolls. I hope they're cute...
