Hasbro + Integrity Toys = Jem and the Holograms?

[modernwizard]

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.

Yes, but are the tentacles articulated? :p You know what would be really cool? A human/octopus hybrid BJD with jointed tentacles.

They're plush. I have seen an anthro bjd tiny on deviantART with articulated tentacles.

They're also a little artist's BJD on Etsy made of plastic from a 3-D printer that is an octoperson, (http://www.etsy.com/listing/84892754/bjd-littling-octoling-ball-jointed?ref=sr_gallery_1&ga_search_query=silverbeam&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=ZZ&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_search_type=all) but the tentacles aren't really articulated.

That's the exact one I was thinking of, actually. I saw them while browsing dA.

Crud, the arms are only articulated at the shoulders, but there might be a chance that the tentacles have wire inside.
