Could it be that you bought them from a 2nd hand shop and someone had actually just given them for resale? Maybe back before they were retired and the prices skyrocketed?
What are you waiting for girl....get to digging in that toybox NOW!

They could also have been off priced due to being seconds - often companies use plain boxes for that. Or, perhaps they were generic. AG doesn't do that often but occassionally it happens. I used to see Samantha's music box all the time and Molly's stocking is mostly filled with generic things, or what look to be generic - we don'town that item.

That is the one retired accessory that I would really love to own. Most of them I could live with out. Maybe one day, I will come accross it.

I have actually had a large Noah's Ark set like Felicity's all my life. By large I mean not doll sized, child sized. When I was little, my mom wouldn't buy me Felicity's because it was so similar to what I already had (mine is from I think 1820 though). Now I wish Felicity and I could match.

I am seriously hoping that this is the one item they bring back for Felicity. It would really make sense since it seems her movie will have a Christmas theme as well and it is part of her Christmas story.
Wouldn't that be wonderful?

We have the LP Noah's ark but Kaitlin brought it to day care. I am debating about getting one for home. It is such a lovely item. But we have sooo many Little People. I swear, I fished one of them out of the VCR last night a long with a pink plastic doll brush. Aah, my life with a toddler.

For anyone who is interested, I have my old 1995 catalogue out right now. The Noah's Ark set is so cute. I agree that they should bring it back! It was $22 and included the ark, Noah & his wife, 2 camels, 2 pigs, 2 elephants, 2 horses and 2 sheep and a wooden ramp that the animals could walk up to get on the ark. The ark opens to safely stow the animals inside. Noah and his wife fit in the ark house top for storage.

I have been obsessing over somthing and I wondered if someone here could help me.It is about Felicity's Noah's Ark set.
I KNOW I had this, long, long before I knew of the dolls.I picked up two sets at a little junk shop.They were in a brown cardboard box, all of the little animals inside were wrapped in tissue.It was a VERY generic set, I do not remember the cost, but I am sure it was under $5 easily, as it is not something I normally would have bought.
My Grandma kept her set on top of her TV for years.My set went on to be my sons set, and was eventually lost in the bottom of the toybox.When we moved, the toybox was dumped into a cardboard box for storage, and never unpacked.I am sure that set is incomplete by now.
I saw a pig and Noah not too, too long ago.Can anyone verify that these were sold outside of American Girl?

If we could turn back time, I would pick up Felicity's ark in a heartbeat! Keeping my fingers crossed that the ark will be back!
I never realized what a wonderful toy an ark could be. My inlaws gave my girls the Playmobil Ark this last Christmas. For anyone looking for a non-toddler ark playset, this is the one to get. Its all plastic, but very durable. The small detailed pieces keep my girls playing for hours! Its a nice looking set you can keep displayed because it isn't very large. Its a definite conversation piece (and toy) when guests are over.
