I purchased Mini Kirsten from Barnes and Noble online, and she arrived today. Kirsten is one of my favorite American Girl characters because she reminds me of my own ancestors, who traveled by boat from Scandinavia and then walked across the plains with the Mormon Pioneers. I just love her looped braids, which have golden highlights. Her apron and shoes are very detailed and well made. I think this one is definitely best for collectors or older girls, as her hairstyle might be difficult to maintain. Here's a back view. You can see her highlights, which really give her hair nice dimension and realism. I think I prefer the older mini dolls to the Beforever versions. They are a really great alternative to the more expensive big dolls, allowing children to explore the different eras and characters.
