[AUTUMNDANCE44]

I am kind of glad because I found out she was retiring and my parents got me a lot of her items - bed, clothes, pjs, kittens, etc

:)

[mysterygrlrocks101]

Sad Song For A Sad Video :,(

[jboychuk]

[meaghanr17]

[BeckHailey]

[322Paris]

This song is so sad

[americangalful]

i love this song.. but its sad

[AmericanGirlDollKaya]

@bunnylover2000 I know, I wish all of the dolls could stay, but it's not nice to say to get rid of Kaya. She is a beautiful doll, just like every American Girl Doll :)

[AmericanGirlDollKaya]

Farewell Kirsten! You will always be in our hearts <3

[lovedogs92]

i have that doll but i got her off ebay

[iloveanastasia28551]

the only doll they retired twice was felicity

[felicity237]

to megastarpie,

i totally agree! they are idiots for retiering all those dolls

[Carline6345]

they are still on ebay

[americangirlmad]

This is terrible! they are retiring all the original dolls:samantha and nellie, kirsten,molly and emily, felicity and elizebeth. :( they r wanting 2 focus on modern day dolls so the educational history dolls will not be a main thing 4 ag any more. :( :(

[AGstarMolly]

WHY RETIRE ADORABLE DOLLS!!!!!!!!!!!! There is no point in it, girls who have been dying for certain dolls, don't get to get their favorite because they retired it. Thumbs up if you agree! BRING THE RETIRED BACK!! BRING THE RETIRED BACK!!

[SoulAssurance]

I'm so mad Just getting in to ag now there retireing the dolls

[jmorphiscave]

There retiring Felicity and Elizabeth, and i just got into them

(ii have them both)and idont even have a chance to get ANY of her things,

[Lexigosselinlover]

Very over the top

[TheAGmoviemaker]

they will prob retire Molly josaphina or addy

[julieandelizabeth111]

Ugh those ag people only the best and most beautiful dolls!!! Now they r retiring felicity and Elizabeth!!!

[MileyAndSelenaAndVAH]

omg kirsten & Sam are my fave ag dollz

[lulucat167]

JEESH AG!!!!! RETIRE ADDY OR SOMETHING INTO ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL AG BUT NOT KIRSTEN!!!!!!(sorry for the 1s that likes addy i dont like her!)

[shagbarkfarm10101]

@PianistDreaming far enough to retire felecity and elizabeth

[kckc1975]

There is no other Swedish doll that I know of.

[sweetiegrl41]

omg im like literally crying! *and the crowd goes* AWW ;_;

[MegaStarpie]

I like AG but their idiots for retiring all these awesome dolls, thumbs up if u agree ;(

[SoulAssurance]

your right becuse i'm just starting to like ag dolls

[thecoconutlucie]

why oh why do u have to make it so DEPRESSING!!???!!!

[americangirldoller]

my only doll that i got when i was 6

[Happy0Bunny0Rox]

My Kirsten's hair is a mess...I cut it when I was about 8, lol. So sad they retired her. :(

[jimmynguyen6566]

DID YALL KNOW THER ALSO ABOUT TOO RETIERD FELICITY AND ELIZABETH

[MissMaddy881]

my favorite american girl is samantha, but i never had any of the dolls.

[Blablaglad21]

I got a letter that's says felcteys retiring

[e2ew1]

I watched this video in 2010 and now I think their retireing Felicity! They probaly expect us to pay more money because they are leaving soon, but I have a good idea, EBAY!

[laurariddle292]

>:(

This means war. First Mattel retires Samantha and Nellie, now this? They're probably going to bring them back in about 10 years and charge a ridiculous price for them for a limited time.

Hey, I'm planning on moving out in a year and learning how to use a sewing machine. I'll learn how to make the doll clothes and accessories so you can all still have your Kirsten and Samantha dolls, and cheaper than AG and American made.

[bauerl9]

I love this song, so sad! Love your vid for it! But I can't believe they would retire her!

[Bluefroggie2]

I just found out I am getting a brand new Kirsten from AG!! my grandma ordered her before she was retired her and I am getting her for my birthday!!! I have always wanted her and when I found out they were retiring her, I cried and thought I would never get a brand new Kirsten from ag, I thought I would get a used old ratty one from ebay or something, so yeah!! really excited!!! :D :D

[pluto902]

Bought Kirsten on ebay aboout a year ago. Love the historical dolls. The original clothing patterns for Molly, Samantha, Kirsten, and Josefina are available for free on the internet.

[LPScutelover1]

why,WHY!!!why cant THEY JUST RETIRE NO DOLLS AT ALL!!!!!!! btw i cried when i was watching the video

[agrocks10]

great now we will probrblt have to say bye to molly emily kit ruthir felicity elizabeth how far will they go!!! im getting kirsten off ebay though

[AGdollwillis]

@PianistDreaming till none of the ones we no and love are left

[aimee792008]

my great grandmother has Kristen and she lives in main she said i can have her when i come visit her the only problem is i live in las vegas.I am worried for my great grandmother too,she has to have surgery becase she has NO feeling in her leg.and to have her old american girl doll would make me sooooo greatful.

i am so worried for my great grandmother.They said it will be about 2 year till she will have feeling in her legs agin.

[MissMaddy881]

@aimee792008 aww i'm sorry to hear that. i hope she had a nice recovery.

:)

[hellokittyalliejonas]

i orderd her in december 09 but a lot of people brought her so they are still trying to get her to people sadly i have been waiting for 6 or 7 months now to get her but im still happy im getting her she was supose to come on christmas so i should get her in july

[NintendogGuru]

I didnt really like Kirsten. I was supposed to get her for my 5th birthday but I got Kit instead. Now I love Kit to death definitley my favorite AG Doll but Im not all for dolls with braids because I am to tempted to take down the braids resulting in a matted clump of doll hair(Kaya) My doll Kaya ended up that way

[SweetApplePie5]

what there retiring her i never thought the would she sells really good ill miss her but its sad to see my first ag doll retire

[Una7654]

My name is Kirsten and I got the Kirsten doll for Christmas when I was seven. She was so beautiful and I hate that they are retiring her. I used to play with her all the time. She was my best friend. I could tell anything to her. I miss that part of my childhood.

[bunnylover2000]

@Una7654 really? whoa thats a amzaing story she was your best friend?? well i know that when my sis got kit she LOVED Her Like A Sister

[shitfacejoe411]

[MiTtYbItTy14]

[AGmagical13]

@MiTtYbItTy14 yes, they are gay as in happy, ye olde english rules doesn't it? if you mean the other gay, then don't watch these videos, i'm pretty sure there are more than 10,000's of others who agree with me

[pearlegirl96]

[Cherrychip99]

[TATSKEWL180]

[Jacquelinebabyphat]

[veggiesisters]

[Oliveruthie121]

I heard they are retiring molly!! Noooo! I really want her!! I hope it isnot true

[Sentrethamster]

my cousin had her now and shes 19 and she doesnt play with it so yay maybye ill have her!!!

[7788nej]

Even though she's retired you can still get her on eBay or look at a goodwill or salavation army

[ShilohLovexo]

Do you think that they will ever sell her again for a limited time?

[candylover427]

i got her for christmas.

[purdylibbin]

i LOVE all your videos sarah but i am kind of gald they are geting rid of another old dol. maybe they can releese new jlys!!

[americangirl553]

do u know hwo many new jly they ust got? like almost 20

[ameriicangirl4ever]

Thats sad! I'm glad i have her!

[CherryFrog321]

That is so sad!!! Kirsten was one of my faves! I still have her, Samantha, and Molly. They were the three dolls that I got when I was younger. I mean, I understand them coming out with new American Girls, but why does that mean they have to get rid of the old ones?

[ajandlady]

how come they are retiring the orignal historical characters?!?!?!? Kirsten was one of their bestsellers and i always wanted her but never got a doll :(

And Samantha too!!!!!

[totororules1]

I loved Kirsten! I am half Swedish so naturely she was my fav doll! And now she is retired! Why do they do that?

[GottaLuvChy17]

@taysitty thx so much for helping I will accept ur friend request as soon as I can bye!!

[webkinzlovergaloure]

i didn't really like kirsten,but then again that's just my opinion so if u like kirsten that's coolfor you :) !perssonally i like elizabeth!

[bunnylover2000]

@webkinzlovergaloure i like elizabeth two I WANT HER SOO BADLY SHE LOOKS LIKE ME by the way i am bunnylover2000s

little sister

[veggiesisters]

Bye Kirsten:(

[AmericanGirl947]

im also littlestpetshop1999 i have several accounts so scratch what i said my mom let me open her early so i DO have kirsten i recommend her she is beautiful!

[musicislife123777]

Not too long ago they retired Samantha. She is my ABSOLUTE favorite doll!!!

[Littlestpetshop1999]

i asked for her for x mas and its almost time to see if i got her!

[56mammamia]

It is really sad.

[GottaLuvChy17]

I think we should all make a video to go on strike my plan is make videos to bring back retired dolls and girl of the years for a whole month and let any kids come and buy the dolls for half off!!! And then the company should let us do that anyway...I'll they care for is money do they even care about us girls?but I really think it could work!! PLEASE TELL EVERYONE ABOUT THIS WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO BRING THE RETIRED BACK!!!!

[taysity]

awsome idea ill tell everyone!

[bunnylover2000]

@GottaLuvChy17 I AM WITH U GIRLFERIEND lol

[KacieAD171721]

@GottaLuvChy17 I SO AGREE!!!!!!!!! I LOVE Kirsten! !!!!!!!!!!! I'm actually making a movie and will post it on youtube i don't know when yet but all summer i will work hard on it. Maybe like the disney vault they will bring the dolls back for a limited time! So tell me what you think when i post it! i'm tring to make it as close to the the book (Meet Kirsten:An American Girl) maybe that will make them want to make an official movie if they see how devoted Kirstens fans are and how many she has!

[bauerl9]

@GottaLuvChy17 Love the idea. And your right, Mattel doesn't care as much about us girls as the money! Why did Pleasant Company ever sell!? They were much better don't you think, they cared about the girls!

[TheLivdoll101]

@GottaLuvChy17 i would soooo team with u...they might bring back archived dolls ags 25th anniversary next year in feb 2011

[TheAglover26]

@GottaLuvChy17 that world be so epic you sould do a video about that:)

[TheAglover26]

@GottaLuvChy17 that world be so epic you sould do a video about that:)

[GottaLuvChy17]

I'm so friken mad about them retirein dolls like this!!! I still want Marisol but noooo...SHE'S RETIRED!!!!!

[mydollsrule]

you can still get her on other sites!

[bunnylover2000]

@GottaLuvChy17 WAIT THERE WAS A DOLL THAT I DIDNET KNOW or she was a girl of the year i think that

[Templephanatic]

Molly's next. The first doll was Samantha and I have her. Next they make kirsten. After they made Molly, so she's next

[bunnylover2000]

@Templephanatic MOLLLY NO THAY CANT BECOSE I HAVE HER a gift AND THAY JUST LIKE MADE HER A FERIEND I WANT EVERYTHING MOLLY THAN

[JoyDiaries]

Ugh I know. When they retired Samantha I was so angry. Espically because they also retired Nellie. And if Molly does retire I really want to get Emily. I wish they would stop retiring dolls already. I actually still want Kailey and Marisol. But do you know how much they are on e-bay?

[bunnylover2000]

@JoyDiaries try AMAZON kirsten is on there and i am sure that all the retird ones r on there

[bornintorock5188]

i'm getting kirsten for christmas before they retire her! but i really hope molly doesn't retire next because i love her stories! but american girl is kinda unfair because i don't really count anything after kit historical because what really happened with rebecca and julie? and their racist! they don't even bother to put kirsten, josephina, addy, or kaya in the catalouge anymore! and they don't make friends for them, like kaya and speaking rain, kirsten and her cousins, addy,sarah, all them!=(

[AmericanGirlieee]

i heard a rumor they might make sarah nex year, and a 50's doll named denise replacing kirsten. I HEARD THIS ON STEPHENWODADANCERS BLOG!

[birdiebubble7]

I agree. There isn't really anything historical happening with Julie and rebecca. AG is being really annoying.

[3492354]

Pour Kirsten We will miss her :( I think Molly is going to retire to but Julie is probably never going to retire

[pinksmileyyy]

I got kirstin when i was 5 i think and i still have her.

[simonisaacnina101]

i have kirsten and im re wigging her now

[birdiebubble7]

How do you re wig?

[arieljane97]

My GUESS its thhat they are retiring Mollie next year because she is an older AG doll and not one of the most terribly popular dolls so- - --

[bunnylover2000]

U KNOW WHAT I HATE JUILEAND REBECCA WANNA KNOW WHY THERE NEW MONSTERS! I WILL MISS MOLLY DEADLY AND sara! get molly if this happens my sis has her and she dont put on her glasses SHE DOSNT NEED THAM

[birdiebubble7]

Yay i just ordered her today! Won't get her till May of 2010 but at least ill get her someday!

[VeemonWarrior]

I am guessing Felicity will go next, I am sure they are getting rid of some old ones for new ones. Samantha retired, and thankfully my sister has her. I want Kirsten for Christmas, she has always been my favorite and now she's going I must have her. Next year I think I'll get Kit. :)

[thelollyh]

I think Molly is going next because I think she is older

[AmericanGirlieee]

molly might cause i thnk they want to retire all 3 originals to make 25th anniversry ones out of them, whatever year their 25 anniversary is.

[amysewfun]

Didn't plan to get her at first...but knowing she is retire by December...I think I will get her as soon as I can.

[LavaLampAG]

I am so upset! I wanted Kit and Ruthie for Christmas, (I always get a pair of friends), but now I NEED Kirsten! I also need some of her outfits. I have 2. And her kittens. I wanted to get Kit and Ruthie this year, Rebecca for my b-day next year, a friend set for that Christmas, then Kirsten for my next b-day! So sad. She didn't even have a friend. Was she that unpopular?

[PuppyLove53572]

I just ordered her!! phew!! got that out of the way!! :) i love her shes awesome

[webkinzbubbleblower]

she will be gone in december after chrismas. so for all of u who want her shes still out there and shes the same price. dont listen to leapord films

[Webk1nz]

she looks cute when her hair is down in braids

[webkinzbubbleblower]

this song reminds me of gwen from the first chrissa book

[americangirl553]

[bunnylover2000]

@americangirl553 I HOPE THAY DONT RETIRE FELICTY SHE MY FAV I WOLD KILL MYSELF 4 HER but if i kill my than i can get her XD

[FREAKSfromhell101]

[mileyag10]

NOOOO !!!

Next their gonna get rid of molly

GOOD THING I HAVE EMILY MAYBE I'LL GET MOLLY SOON !!

[agdollms]

that song just makes me so sad.

[aknproductions]

I think they might retire Molly next since Samantha, Kirsten, And molly where the first American Girl Dolls ever to be put out!!!! But, Im might be getting Emily for Christmas! :) For my Molly doll. So, they might retire Molly AND Emily next year! :(

[AmericanGirlieee]

they retired samantha w/ her best friend, theyll do that w/ molly

[pullipcollectersclub]

WHAT!?

[thecrazystaceyshow]

Oh no! :(

~Jenny

[AGDollRebecca2]

ill miss kristen my friend has her

[premadonna17]

I honestly think that when American Girl retires dolls they're doing it to get more money. When you retire a doll more people buy the doll before its too late, therefore the American Girl Company gets more money quicker and faster. Or am I wrong? Are they doing this for a reason? It didn't really sound as If they did it for a reason because of the word "deciding" In your video title. But anyway, I'll miss Kirsten!!

[jakp8agdfan]

yes thats wat i think pus thier doing it rite b4 christmas idk wen retiering but still ya its just 4mony

[webkinzgirl90]

im not

[kittysrule1111]

Chin up you can still get the mini doll

[kittysrule1111]

[carlytons]

omg i am getting her for christmas and i am also getting rebecca

[xodanibubblesox]

whats this song?? its so pretty and pretty much made me cry i have to get kirsten!

[americangirlmiagwen]

The song is called Concrete Angel by Martina McBride. The music video is so sad. Sarah has an American Girl doll version of it!

[mirrenfan2]

I'm not happy about this. Luckily I have Kirsten and most of her stuff because I've been collecting for YEARS, but what about all the young girls today that will be missing out? Kirsten is very educational! It sucks. :(

[archuletalover5]

oh sad! :( i liked kirsten!

this song alwayssss makes me cry:(( lol

[TheAgfan1]

how sad it almost mad me cry!

[HollywoodDawg]

I'm getting her for christmas! it is so sad that they're retiring another doll!!

[nicolebubblecp]

I guess there is a time when the dolls has to retire. :(

[ivy14]

i almost got this doll. i got the smantha doll. and i have read the book 3 times..

[MsFashionDesigner]

My friend has all the american girl dolls so i can play with hers lol. But it is said she is leaving :^(

[OddettetheCalico]

[AGforAG]

She reminds me of my just like you doll, Amanda. She's super cute!!! I was wanting to get her after Julie and another JLY but I don't know if I'll have time to!!!!! I'm super sad about that, but I guess in a few years I'll have to buy one on eBay or something.

[DemiLovato112244]

she was MY FIRST american girl doll, i got her when i was nine years old, personally, i think the kirsten books are the most touching :) i can't believe that they're just taking away all of the historical dolls, :(

[lpslover6844]

i wanted her for christmas.

[americangirl564]

I REALLY like Kirsten.I wish they didn't have to get rid of her.She'll be missed by all.

[DancingBandGeek]

That is so sad! She was one of my favorite girls when I first read the books.

Really AG? Retiring 2 dolls in 2 years? Wasn't Samantha enough for now? It's like they've died.

[cutiemiley2]

thay cant retire addy next cause she is colored and it wouldint be fair because its american and there are diffent type of ppl and kay cant eathier cause of her culture but defently not kirsten she is like the only one who is sweedish!! lol but i am not sweedish...
