Mhm, but you also have to remember... the Christmas holiday edition mini was never MGA's strongpoint, they were good at designing the Halloween minis but Christmas was never their real area of expertise. This is honestly their very first Christmas edition mini. Sure they made Holly and Ivory in the past, but you have to remember the minis of those characters came after the large dolls, those characters were not designed with being a Target exclusive holiday mini in mind, they were just their own characters - with Holly just happening to have a Christmas motif. And also remember they skipped '13, so really this is their very first Christmas mini.
