So what are the Super Stars dolls? Well they are dolls that ended up being sold to another company and sold as a generic fashion doll. There were a lot of them that showed up in Sears after Jem was canceled. Some can still be purchased in dollar stores in Canada, as recently as last year (2006.)

It's always be fact that Hasbro sold these dolls to "M Star" after the Jem line was canceled. I have also heard from a Hasbro Employee that the factory that made the dolls sold these rejects without Hasbro knowledge or permission. It has been pointed out by other Jem fans that the Hasbro Employee that told me this did not work in a position to have knowledge of this. Either way, these were doll that was made for Hasbro, but then sold to another company.

What we know for sure:

• Most of these dolls seem to be 1st issue Holograms and Misfits. There has been reports of 2nd issue Holograms, maybe even Raya, Danse, and Video ... if there are Super Stars versions of these dolls it is very rare. Most of the fashions are 1st issue Holograms and Misfits fashions, with some exceptions. (Examples: The white socks are from a Moondreamers tights. Some doll come with cut off tights with a pink and 2 black strips, the origin of this fabric has not been linked to a Hasbro doll.)
• Rio, Rob from Maxie, and this long purple haired Rob (named as Craig Phillips - in the Jem fan community) comes with female bodies and female clothing.
  (this Craig Phillips/Rob head is really intended for Rio in 1987)
• There are also generic versions of Maxie with different color hair. These usually come with generic bodies and clothing. Many Rio and Robs also come with the generic bodes.

These packages say Made in China, but some of the doll features are more like H32 - "Made in Hong Kong" and "Assembled in China, Packaged in Hong Kong." dolls. These Jem bodies are almost always the "no location" version of the dolls. They have ball wrist, slimmer hips, and a little shorter. The heads usually have ©Hasbro and has the first letter of the dolls name. These are all features found on some Hong Kong dolls, but not China dolls. Also 1st issue Rio is a Hong Kong only doll. Only 2nd issue Rio's head was Made in China. Just when it seems like it must be a Hong Kong thing, you have Maxie heads, and Maxie seems to have only been made in China.

There is a rumor that a Pizzazz doll was found with copper or red hair. This would also be very rare.
