Grey's Anatomy star and photographer Brad Everett Young was one of our own. Love him or hate him, he was the founder of “Jem’s Space” on myspace.com. He shared some great photography of Jem dolls, fashions, and prototypes. The information was not always correct, because his main source didn’t really have a connection to the Jem line. He is a devastating loss to the Jem community.

Presentation Illustration / Workroom Illustration
       

“Only the Beginning” seems to be the one fashion that changed the most. In the cartoon, it was blue with a beret and matching belt. In early prototype images it is almost a red color, it was shown as purple for the fashion card illustrations, and was released in pink. I think it was the one fashion picked on by Hasbro to keep trying to make it a unique color from each fashion in the line, especially a unique color for a jumpsuit.

This original 20”x30” Presentation Illustration/Workroom Illustration has the blue beret and belt in a very similar pattern to the animation. The other cool thing about this Presentation Illustration is the “M” letter attached to the belt. I was told this is a Judith Nelson illustration, but I’m not 100% sure it was one of her illustrations.

Unproduced 1988 Fashions
 

On Stage Fashions was another assortment Hasbro had planned to rerelease in 1988.  Several prototypes showed up on eBay. I wonder if the assortment would keep that On Stage Fashions name or been folded into the Hollywood Jem theme, if the line had continued. With the exception of the Stingers, all of the instrument playing dolls were being eliminated from the 1988 assortments. Only Kimber was to be re-issued, but as a non-assortment Wedding Kimber dolls and may have included a non-assortment groom doll.

"Jem Onstage Fashion Asst. / Pink & Chartreuse pants-dress" 609137-02M, and other On Stage Fashion prototypes, can be seen in the Video Costume/Mardi Gras Fashion Polaroid with some of the 1987 On Stage Fashions. Those images can be seen on the Mardi Gras Fashion page.
