Hey again guys! Just this morning I was doing some random Jem googling on my phone, and I came across the original Starstruck Guitar outfit that was sold back in the 80's, that too had the green headband like this doll does! I hadn't realised that. Her shoes were different too, almost like pixie shoes, they look more like they belong to a leprachaun rather than Jem LOL! And again, not like the shoes she wore in the cartoon. Re the dvd box set (which I am loving!) having looked at the description on amazon.com for the US version, it seems on that one there are extras such as interviews and a 'jukebox' of all the songs/videos. I can only tell you that on the UK release, we have NONE of these extras! Literally just the episodes, not a single extra in sight  And that makes me feel somewhat cheated! Hope this helps?  |

So far I think Starstruck Jem is my new favourite - everything I loved about GnG and then some, though I would have preferred her guitar to another GnG trophy. (Then again, maybe we'll be seeing her guitar in a future accessory set.) I'd also have preferred a darker gold for her makeup, or at least a few more sparkles.
I like that her outfit is a combination of the series version and the original produced version, which is more or less consistent with what the Integrity versions have been doing.

So far all of the Integrity versions, plus many of the originals too.

You are so right! Well that makes me feel even a little better about it, then. It didn't bother me too much before, but at least it isn't inconsistent with the original doll fashion. Like Cindy said, IT has been doing hybrids of the animation models and original toys, so this works for me. Hopefully they will do another accessory set and include the matching guitar. |

oh no! That's terrible that the UK box set doesn't have any extras! I wonder why they decided to cut that out?
That sounds like a possibility! I almost wonder if this is the exact reason they didn't include it with the doll.

I almost wonder if this is the exact reason they didn't include it with the doll. I honestly don't know Kev? I didn't know about the extras on the US release until I started looking into the 'case of the missing minutes'  I've found a lot of interviews on Youtube though so been watching them there, but it would have been nice to have them on the dvd for sure. I wish Integrity would release updated versions of lots of the outfits that were originally available! I have so many favourites that I would pounce on were they released for these new dolls! Surely it would be in their interests to do so, I can't be the only one who would love to buy them?? |
