Yeah yeah, late to the party, but apparently Hasbro and Integrity Toys are doing high-end, articulated, fashion-doll remakes of Jem and the Holograms. I wonder if they'll do the rival band too? I never got into the dolls the first time around, but I'm curious to see what the remakes look like. If they are 1:6 scale [as opposed to the original dolls, which were more like 13"] with articulated elbows [as opposed to the original dolls, who had articulated wrists, but no articulated elbows, for mysterious reasons], they could be interesting.

EDIT: Holy crap! 1:6 scale! Articulated elbows! Pink hair! Of course, this particular doll was one of those super-duper special editions available only at the 2012 Comicon, therefore now available on Ebay for $gazillion. Well, there'll be more of them in the future.

Pink hair fan? Integrity had some blank-faced doll kits with pink hair (http://franklins-toys.webstorepowered.com/Integrity-Designs-Official-Doll-Designer/dp/B0022IK0QC?traffic_src=FIND&utm_medium=CSE&utm_source=FIND&affId=the005-20) and different complexions. The bodies are the old TNT, bend leg IT bodies though. Those dolls didn't have articulated wrists.

I am accustomed to Jem being larger than Barbie so the IT Jem looks odd to me. Too thin and frail. Good luck though getting one though ;-)
