First, I'm going to mention that I am not at all a fan of small dolls -- they're hard to work with and difficult to add details to. However, that doesn't mean they're any less work and I can tell you put a lot of effort into these.
Due to shape, the hair for Chibiusa should probably be stitched rather than left in strands (same for Usagi, to get the tails to curl). The hair on everyone else looks good though e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/sā¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="
Your details are a little off -- the chokers don't have stars until SuperS, which means their sleeves are those transparent wing thingies, which can easily be done if front loops are left free. And you made the front ribbons longer, as in the SuperS series. Usagi doesn't have the hair pins until SuperS (unless you're going by the manga, but in that case the brooch is different), in which the rest of her costume changes a bit also. Chibiusa's buns have white covering most of them.
I know their skirts are short, but I think they need to lay a little bit - maybe doing DCs will give them better drape.
For Tuxedo Mask, I think the brim needs to be longer/wider, and maybe make the mask a little pointier. Personally, I think it's weird that his cape is felt -- I would have done a loose stitch (like DCs or TR) to give it the drape, then lined it with the felt so the inside is the right color (that's just personal preference, though; some people prefer the felt). I think the white for his shirt and vest look funny -- maybe you could do some surface stitches around the white so it looks more like the jacket is above the white pieces.
I love these dolls so much! They're consistent, the stitching is good -- I can't see any stuffing showing through. I think I've mentioned before how I adore how you do the eyes. Your felt details are really clean -- the brooches, chokers, and tiaras. I still can't get over those eyes.
Anyways, I hope that's helpful (and not confusing x__x), and if you'd like to have further discussion just message me, I'd love to help ^__^

Thanks for the critique. I'm not an expert at crocheting or anything of the sort, and I have trouble with surface stitches, but I did my best with how small they are. (They're all around 7 inches except Chibi) But I appreciate the time you took to write this. ^^ Maybe I can make better ones next time.

Well they look awesome, just a few little tweaks here and there will polish them up nicely ^__^

Okay, I'm also a giant egg-head, because I interpreted "100 word minimum" as "100 word maximum" ...................... Oy..... x___x

I've never written a critique before, but I'm gonna take a whack at it. Before you read it, just know that I adore your dolls <3
Also, I am an experienced crocheter :3
