I'm disappointed too. I was excited to hear she was getting more things, until I found out it meant some of her best things (IMO) were going to retire to make room! Here's what I was disappointed with:

Blonde haired blue eyed Elizabeth and changing the illustrations in past books to reflect that. Ugh. [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img]

Retiring her school tea set. [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img] I thought this was one of her best items, from the beautiful blue pattern on the cup and saucer to the elegant wood caddy to the adorable queen cake. I was really shocked that this got retired.

Retiring the chocolate set. [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img] In the books, Felicity's family decided not to drink tea. Now the only set that can be used with her birthday treats is a TEA set. This makes no sense and is confusing.

Not bringing back some items like her school accessories (AG *used* to be about education [img]graemlins/sure.gif[/img] ) and the Shrewsbury cakes set, not to mention any summer items as that "collection" consists of just an outfit now. [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img]

Making some things like the guitar (from the reports I've heard) plastic. [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img]

I am glad they brought her back to the catalog and brought back her lovely riding habit, and I do like her new yellow dress. Elizabeth was a good idea; I just wish they hadn't messed with her looks. But if I were in charge (don't I wish! ) I would change a LOT of things still.
