Hasbro to Launch Jem and the Holograms dolls



http://www.comicsalliance.com/2012/0...ine-sdcc-2012/

hm, these don't look half bad. I am still looking into more information about this, since this article came out in june, but I think I might actually buy one if these actually came out.

I remember this old show. Wow, I used to watch it with my friend and his sisters. We would take turns pretending it and TMNT. That's how i got my first kiss.

They actually do look pretty decent. The originals were so manly looking, my sister and I used to use them as "Ken" when we played Barbies and didn't have enough Ken dolls

But the price tag kinda sucks.

I know they were selling an exclusive Hollywood Jem at Comic Con. But I haven't heard anything about when the line will be out in stores. Probably soon tho. I haven't seen em on the shelves yet.

One could say that the price is "truly, truly, truly outrageous!"

I agree, I have seen comercials for the orginal Jem dolls on youtube, and man are they cheap looking and ugly! Jem's hair doesn't even look pink half the time. No wonder the series was cancelled, the toy line wasn't doing well even though the cartoon series was. These are a huge improvement.

I'm hoping for some Stingers dolls, Hasbro had protypes of them but they were never offically made.

I actually own, and quite love several of the original dolls. Their outfits are made nicer than a lot of dolls outfits are these days.
