REVIEW: TLS Jem & the Holograms KIMBER




It took three tries, but I finally got a decent Kimber. 




Stickers





Lanyard



Stand, comb and keytar





She's gorgeous. 




I think Aja is still my favorite, but she's a really close second. 





Unlike the vintage doll, she actually gets a shirt. 




I'm not trying to replicate her box art pose.




Yep, lovely. 



I'm happy to finally have all the Holograms together. As much trouble as this company is, I hate to say it, but I really do want them to keep producing these characters.

  1. Even tough I am not really a Jem fan ( I wasn't even thought of in the 80's ) I do learned about them through Integrity Toys, and they are so fun! Even if I really prefer IT overall aesthetic over this company's by a huge margin, I like that this are not so insanely priced in comparison AND they don't use that damn pleather for everything! I hated that. I wonder if they could share clothing.

    1. Having grown up with it as my fave cartoon, I definitely favor the vintage line. IT's are gorgeous but sometimes feel more like Fashion Royalty in cosplay than representations of the characters. The later versions captured the faces better, I think, especially Aja. I give these credit for putting affordable Jem back out there. They're not perfect but we Jem fans will take what we can get.

    2. Yeah, I think they were learning in the process. The first Jem, the one from Comic Con I think? She's downright a FR girl in the face. The last Aja, the one in a giftset with Shana, is very cute. But by that time....dude, they were asking for your kidneys plural lol.

    3. I had to have that Aja, because she's in my fave of her outfits from the show, but it's ridiculously expensive from the vintage line. I made some of the money back by selling Shana. I also got the Jetta and Stormer set. I regret not getting Roxy and Pizzazz! But the prices are even worse now.
