REVIEW: TLS Toy Jem Jerrica & Synergy

My box from TLS finally arrived. I swear, everyone was getting theirs before mine even got shipped. 

We'll start with the Jerrica and Synergy set. 

Like many, I was not happy with the giant price increase in TLS's lines. They used to be affordable, almost too good to be true affordable, but this set cost $120! Pretty insane, considering Jem herself was $24.99 when she came out and she came with a lot of stuff. 

So for $60 each, you're getting a doll in a single outfit with a comb and a stand that plays the same song. All the stands play the same damn song. I miss the days of the cassette tapes with different songs for each character. 

That said, I am thrilled to have an actual Jerrica. I thought Jem coming with an outfit she couldn't actually wear was pretty silly. 

And having her in the cartoon version of the outfit while Jem came with the doll version was genius. 

Jerrica is really cute. Her only real flaw is that her head is a bit lighter than her body, though it doesn't photograph as drastic as it is in real life. Still, it's not the worst mismatch I've ever seen. 

Synergy is stunning! 

I'm having a bit of a struggle getting used to the body though. I don't hate this body at all, but a skintight outfit is not the most flattering thing for it. 

The outfit is very well made. 

Her face is just gorgeous. I love how they did the eyes and she has a great jaw shape. 

Her hair is a bit thin and it's definitely 80s wild, though I wish it was a bit thicker. 

Overall, this is a great set, but not for $120. Maybe like $60 or $75? 

Being a big Jem fan though, I had to have it. 

Those combs are really well done. I love them.
