There are nine basic American Girl molds of the current day, Kaya, Classic, Sonali, Marie Grace, Asian, Jess, Rebecca, Nanea, and Addy molds. Of course each of these molds can split into different categories, but we'll discuss those later.
Classic Mold
The Classic Mold was first used, hence the name classic, and is the most commonly used mold. The major features of the classic mold include, a nicely rounded face, thin lips, and circle shaped eyes.
Kaya Mold The Kaya mold is one of the most unique face molds used by American Girl. Unlike any AG mold, the Kaya mold has closed lips showing no teeth, more defined eyes, and thicker lips. Only Kaya and Logan Everett yield the Kaya mold.
Sonali Mold
The Sonali mold was first used on Sonali and now is used for only African American dolls, besides Addy molds. They have more flattened noses, and beautiful shaped eyes.
Marie Grace Mold
The Marie Grace mold is also a very unique mold only used for Marie Grace. It has a thin chin, but relates to the Rebecca mold, but with a slightly different nose and much thinner lips.
Rebecca Mold
The Rebecca Mold has thick lips, and plump cheeks. The mold was first used on Josefina.
Addy Mold
The Addy mold is also one of the least commonly used molds. First used on Addy, the mold is only used on a few African American molds. It has a wide nose, thick lips, and plump cheeks.
Asian Mold
The Asian mold is mostly retired, other Asian dolls tend to have remodeled versions of either the Asian or Jess mold. Compared to Jess, Asian molds will have slightly wide noses, a short face, and more almond shaped eyes. It is currently a retired mold.
Jess Mold
The Jess mold was first used on GOTY Jess, and is now used for Asian dolls. The only features to the Jess mold are the slightly Almond Shaped eyes.
Nanea Mold
Nanea Mitchell is the newly released AG doll. Her face mold looks like it was based off of the Jess mold with almond shaped eyes, but is much more complex than just that. She is a Hawaiian doll and has a very rounded face, red lips, and round, but pointy, almond shaped eyes.
Variations
Some of the eight molds have variations. We'll start with the Rebecca Mold.
Rebecca Mold
Josefina was the first to have the mold. Most of the variations have very different features than Rebecca. There are four different variations, besides Rebecca.
Julie- Straight brows and slightly plumper face.
Grace- Less plump face and widely feathered brows. Unusual red lips.
Josefina- Widely feathered brows. Large eyes, and slightly larger lips.
Rebecca- Feathered brows.
Jess Mold
The Jess mold was based of the asian mold and has replaced the Asian mold, from what we know. Jess molds have feathered brows and almond shaped eyes.
Ivy Ling is a variation of the Jess mold, with slightly pointy eye modifications. Otherwise she looks the same as Jess.
Asian Mold
JLY #4 is the only doll to have the Asian mold, all other asian dolls have the Jess mold. Asian molds have straight brows and short faces.
Asian molds are have said to have been remodeled as the #64 JLY doll. She is also a new variation of the Jess doll, with more pointy eyes as in the Asian #4 JLY Mold, but a normal face as in the Jess Mold.
More Variations
In addition to these face molds, under unusual conditions, the same doll may have a very slightly different face mold. These variations may be altered by year the doll was made.
Felicity- Pleasant Company vs. BeForever
Both Felicity's are basically the same, until you look very closely at the eyebrows. The Pleasant Company Felicity will have straight brows while the BeForever one will have feathered brows. The hair color will also be more bright red in the BeForever Felicity.
Caroline-Pre-Mattel vs. BeForever
These dolls are actually the very same. Their hair, eyes, and facial markings are exactly alike, but the difference lies in the face. The Pre-Mattel Caroline will have more of an Asian looking face, with more almond smaller shaped eyes and lighter eyebrows. The BeForever Caroline has a fuller and wider face with brown eyebrows.
