Amber Eyes – the 1986 version of Samantha’s eyes, a bit lighter and brighter than is common (see also Samber)

Dark Tawny Slate Eyes – Tawny Slate eyes that are a few shades darker. These dolls were made in 1991 and have dark brown hair.

Dreamer – Kirsten and Molly dolls in 1987 made with smaller irises, making the eyes look like she’s daydreaming. Later, decal eyes for Felicity and Samantha in 1991/92.

Fortune Cookie (1988) – In some 1988 dolls, a small Gotz paper and foil tag was placed on top of the torso stuffing before attaching the head.

Fortune Cookie (1991) – In some 1991 dolls, a small dress tag (the same type that was sewn on the meet outfit), was tucked inside the dolls head.

Glam Lash – Eyelashes used on dolls in 1998 that have a gentle slope instead of a hard bend. Often seen on Josefina the most, but also seen on Addy.

Paintbrush Lashes – In late 1987, painted pinwheel-style eye lashes started to be dark, thick, and long.

Slate Eyes – Referred to Samantha doll eyes that lack the usual redness and have less saturation in color. These dolls were made in 1989 (Green Slate), 1990 (Tawny Slate-pictured), and 1991 (Dark Tawny Slate).

Spidery or Spider Lashes – The earliest lashes on Samantha that are bristly and fan out, from 1986 to 1991.

Stained Eyebrows – eyebrows that were glazed on instead of solid paint. Seen on white body dolls and dolls made prior to 1992.

Tawny Slate Eyes – Slate eyes that have more of a brownish hue. These dolls were made in 1989 and 1990.
