impyGoing to bed for awhile, but if you're so inclined, AG has finally made the Official Archival Announcement for Molly and Emily.
Remember these simple tips if you're getting sucked in OR you know someone who is:
Newest stuff, accessories, furniture if you want it, and last of all, the dolls. The best friend will be harder to come by on the secondary market (especially in Molly and Emily's case) so plan accordingly.
Why to the order? Newer stuff will be harder to find on ebay later on because, especially in the case of her new pajamas, it won't have been in production for damn near 20 years.
Accessories tend to get overly inflated prices because someone always loses a fiddly bit or something.
Furniture is a bitch to ship, so getting it right from the source is usually a better (and cheaper) idea.
Usually the dolls are last to sell out, frequently going on backorder. Nellie didn't (which is why I advise snagging Em before Molly if that's your thing) but Elizabeth did.
Oh, and it appears that if you want her tea set you should snag that first.
New stuff was released (including Saige's Paula Deen outfit) and my interest is pretty low so don't be waiting on a complete round-up of that. :P
Now to acquire an original set of Molly books (with the original illustrations) as well as the older but not original illustrations. Those plus Molly herself, Molly's Meet Accessories, and Emily's Meet Accessories are all I'm missing. The part of Em will be played by Saige Paints the Sky Red ...With Blood later in the year.
