AG mini leaks including Claudie's book cover and Halloween

[impy]

Courtney's Halloween Costume:

STIRRUP PANTS. I'm sorry. That needed to be yelled. Uh, anyway, I'm glad they remembered they all but promised to make the Crystal Starshooter costume.



Maryellen's Cowgirl Costume:

If you listen carefully you can hear the Boomer fans lose their absolute shit over this. I'm not saying the other fans aren't in love but the older fans are over the goddamn moon. Aw? Personally I'm onboard because it's a Halloween costume and I don't mind the cowgirl thing but I don't love-love it. But it's still very much on the list of To Buy.


Cheerleader Outfit

So. That's pink not red, right? I want the blue one. It's come to my attention that I either don't have any cheer outfits or I think i don't and I've been meaning to get one (we're not including Joss's practice outfit) so this one seems appropriate. I do hope the shoes aren't plastic though.


Witch and Skeleton:

The witch costume is back! And apparently the boots are better this time. :D The skelly costume is weird due to the hands being on the sleeves but I do like the shoes and the hair clip so maybe.


Pretty Pumpkin Costume:

I'm going to agree with everyone who thinks this would be a better pick for the Wellies or even Bitty Baby. As it is, I'm getting HIMYM!Slutty Pumpkin vibes and uh, I like the boots? And the tights, honestly. I went from having no interest in this to wanting the mix and match possibility stuff.


Last week Claudie Wells was announced as the official name and her author was released. Today we get the book cover and a meet and greet in NYC for the end of the month.


I was going to lead with Claudie's book cover being released but I didn't want to end on slutty pumpkin so here's Claudie:

"Claudie"? That's...a choice for a name, to say the least. What era is she supposed to be from?

[impy]

1920's Harlem Renaissance, which is why the NYC store is getting the signing. And because AG can't go too long without another NY doll.

Today's useless fact: AG trademarked Claudie Jones first only to realize that ohshit, you Google that and you get Claudia Jones, Communist.

Well, at least it will be an interesting time period! (I was half-afraid it'd be the 90s which would've made me feel ancient even though it was technically 30 years ago >.<)

I'm very interested in her story and apparently we're getting yet another new face mold. Her stuff, however, sounds like they'll be skewing more kid friendly at the expense of historically accurate and moreso than AG's usual. So adjusting expectations.
