The original dolls were a spinoff from the 18-inch dolls made by Götz in [[Germany]] during the late 1980s to the 1990s. Pleasant Rowland initially bought the remaining stock of Romina dolls from Götz in 1985-86, to be rebadged and marketed as [[Samantha Parkington]], complete with books and various accessories. Around that time the company also released two other characters  - Kirsten Larson and Molly McIntire, and in the 1990s American Girl introduced several other dolls from various time periods such as [[Felicity Merriman]], Addy Walker, and Josefina Montoya, along with a line of dolls representing the modern era.
