*In Store Report* BeForever Close Up Details - AGP Atlanta

I asked my dear AG friends to take "specific" photos while on a recent visit to AGP. Wouldn't you know I can't WAIT for these snap boots!!



"Here are the pictures of Samantha's bed, bicycle, and shoes you asked about."


"The bed is all one piece including the canopy, it's not in separate pieces like Marie Grace's bed...the merchandise manager was there and told me that's how it's designed. It's a really nice piece."


  
"Backside of the canopy, you can see that it's all one piece, hard to get a good picture in entirety because the other display case is in the way, but at least you can get an idea of what the back of the Samantha's bed looks like."
 

 



I asked Leigh to get a close up where the iphone/ipod jack hooks into the egg chair so my readers could see.


I love Jip! 
Thank you Leigh for these great detailed photos!!!



 My friend Shelly took close ups of the bicycle and ice cream parlor.  

 


These are awesome and will help readers see the details. Maybe this will help answer some of the questions you have about these particular items.

(My Frilly Frock order is taking too long to get here by the way LOL)

    1. Yes the Parlor is mostly wood with a few plastic elements. It's heavy, sturdy and well made.

  3. Were is Josie?! She isn't shown in the catalog as her own page, or in the mini doll display, catalog and store! Do you know if they may retire her because of the new one in January?

    1. Josie is rumored to be getting new items in the spring 2015 - and like Molly when she got her yellow Jenny Lind bed and PJs then was suddenly being archived - this could hold true for Josie too. Follow the rumors here, I will update as soon as I know anything. Meanwhile you can see Josie in the new BEFOREVER catalog here:

  4. *From Julie's doll mom:*

    My catalog is taking too long to get here! I keep looking here and on the AG website, but I want my own! If it's not here tomorrow, I'll have to request one, (again!)

  5. We've been to AGP here in St. Louis several times since the debut of BeForever and darn it that parlor is growing on me! It's super nice. The ice cream scooper is made of metal and some of the linings on the glasses have the same metal. It's very detailed, the cash register weighs a ton (so well-made no plastic here!) but there aren't individual keys so I'm assuming that it's because they were sticking similar to Kit's type writer? The ice cream looks pretty realistic for doll food. Every time my daughter sees it she stops and plays with it for at least 20 minutes and that's what she used to do with Julie's car on display. $300 is steep, but it's huge and has some very nice pieces so I can see why it's so expensive on top of which AG raised their prices with this debut. My PS says they won't be doing the price hike come January, so that's a relief.
    If I were to get this for my daughter some day it would have to be a combined Christmas/birthday or maybe I could ask grandparents to pitch in a little if they want to get her something she really wants. Heck, if I wasn't a full grown woman I wouldn't have the excuse of leaning down with my daughter and having a grand ole time playing ice cream parlor. Lol!

  6. Just wanted to note that the egg chair looks like it takes a standard headphone jack--not one specific to Apple products.

    Can't wait to get that dress for Addy. It is definitely on the Christmas list!
