There's a difference between collecting Madame Alexander collectors' pieces and even Collectors' Edition Barbies within their boxes and keeping dolls that are marketed solely for play (ie, American Girl). The former, which is what the people you listed primarily collect, is marketed to adults; the latter to 8-year olds.
