Some people post fake pics of AG Girl Of The Year dolls online. Some people even make fake dolls! Here's how you can tell the difference.
As you can see, Delta Simpson fooled many people. But if you look closely, you'll see Delta's meet outfit is just one of AG's MAG outfits. She is just a MAG. NOW, IT'S GAME SHOW TIME! Let's see if you can guess the fake Girl Of The Year!
If you guessed C, you are right!
The one on the left is the fake.
See?
Here Stephenwodadancer is tapping the doll.
It's a little hard to see, but it is really high up.
Look where she is pointing, that is the watermark.

#2: Counterfeit Dolls on EBay and Amazon
Stephenwodadancer's You Tube video clearly explains how to tell the difference between counterfeit and real AG dolls. You can view it in the link above.
The key points she mentions are:
#1: Eyes
Stephenwodadancer says that "her eyes bug out"
#2: Eyelashes
Stephenwodadancer mentions that her eyelashes don't cover her entire eye.
#3: Skin Material
She says that the doll's skin doesn't feel like vinyl. It is way too hard.
#4: Placement of Company Name
She mentions that the placement of "Pleasant Company" is way too high up.
#5: Watermark
I'm not exactly sure what that means, so watch the video for an explanation.
There are other points too that Stephenwodadancer talks about in the video, but these are the outer features.
Now you know how tell a counterfeit doll from a real American Girl doll!
I've seen those fake dolls on eBay, I hope no one buys them thinking that she was a real AG doll. That would really be disappointing :( Thanks for the tips on identifying real AGs :)
