I *REALLY* wanted to change Corinne’s eyes, both to get softer non-plastic lashes, and because of the potential for silvering / bubbling with pinwheel eyes. And now I can’t!

In reply to Horsehappy14. i'm curious as well! some people have speculated it's because AG doesn't want customizers changing dolls, specifically the dolls of color. it's hurtful when people of color see the dolls that look like them being changed by customizers to have more european features, like lighter eyes, skin, and hair. however, american girl hasn't said anything about it themselves, so it's anyone's guess. :)

In reply to Mary H. it actually is a new face mold! My friend, Sydney, posted several photos comparing Corinne's face mold to Nanea's and other popular AG face molds. You can check them out on her Instagram, @5hensandacockatiel!

I was wondering if Corinne really had a new face mold, or if she just has Nanea’s face mold.

That is interesting! I had just assumed that it was her face mold as well… I wonder why they made them bigger.

I think she appears like more south Asian, Thailand, Bhutan, India, etc. I think she does seem Disneyesque as her eyes don’t look Chinese because they are way too large and Chinese don’t have eyelashes so why the painted eyelashes? She’s a kid and not adult who’d paint her eyes. The eyes are obvious feature, short thinner and stick straight eyelashes in 99 percent of Chinese. I showed a few Chinese friends I showed thought she was mixed race. I am happy she is Chinese though. So many of my friends are self conscious of their perception of eyes not being beautiful (And they are) so this seems a bit weird to me this wasn’t thought out at all, like for instance the texture of Addy’s hair or Kayas smile, inappropriate to show teeth!

Never, but I wish! I wonder why they did this? Thanks for sharing! This seems very different than the Jess mold…
