'''Transition Dolls''' are [[doll]]s manufactured between 1999 and 2002, the four years between the end of [[Pleasant Company]] and the homogenization of [[Mattel]] traits in the dolls.

==Early Transition Dolls, ''1999-2000''==

"Early transition" dolls are similar, but not exactly like [[Pre-Mattel Dolls|Pleasant Company dolls]] (PC), as they were manufactured before the complete takeover by Mattel and the homogenization of traits. Early transition dolls can have certain traits:

* Harder eyelashes that are between PC and Mattel levels of hardness
* Chubbier bodies
* Shorter height
* The PLEASANT COMPANY on the back of the neck, as well as potential artists marks, as older head molds continued to be used for some time.

==Later Transition Dolls, ''2001-2002''==

These dolls have much harder eyelashes. They are still shorter and a little plumper than Mattel dolls and thus have a small amount of difficulty into fitting into tight jeans, bodices, etc. Many dolls of this time, including [[Lindsey Bergman (doll)|Lindsey]], also have some characteristic defects:

* A defective grey cast to their vinyl, varying in severeness
* Hair that frizzes easily if the Kanekelon hair fibers are mistreated.
