All the recent posts about retirements have got me thinking more about the potential for more of them. Things have been quiet for a while other than the last few of the first short story dresses, but I still worry.

So, here are some questions for everyone...feel free to answer one or all. I'm just looking for some different perspectives.

1. Would you mind retirements if they introduced something new for every item that was retired?

2. Would you mind the retirements if they gave a warning about it on the website?

3. If AG claimed that "more space" is needed before they could release any new historical girls (not friends), should they retire some items from the current collections or just not make any new dolls?

4. Do you think AG should only release small collections, like Kaya's, to ensure that their would only be a remote chance of anything being retired?

5. Do you consider anything released outside of a girl's collection from the original six books limited edition and expect that it will, at some point, retire? (for example, the new outfits that came out this summer)

6. Should the friends dolls be retired after a year like the Limited Edition AGT dolls or should they become a permanent part of the historical girl's collection, and if so, should items from the girl's collection be retired to keep room for the friend?
