Hasbro 1988 Pre-Toy Fair Catalog - page 19

The doll boxes changed for 1988. Rockin' Romance Jem would have been about the same size as Rock'n Curl Jem's box, but the Jem logo was moved to the top, and the name of the doll was moved to the bottom. The box is almost an inch deeper then Rock'n Curl Jem's box.

Rockin' Romance Jem doll box size in the French 1988 Hasbro Catalog has the box size as 125mm x 365mm x 75mm (4.9" x 14.4" x 2.9").

I would assume American Beauty Jem would have had a very similar box -- more then likely the exact same size.

This new Hologram box seems thinner and about an inch wider then the Rockin' Romance Jem box. Once again the logo is moved to the top, and the name is much larger across the bottom, in comparison to the first two year Hologram boxes. While it's not as wide as the 1987 or 1986 boxes, it seems to be the same depth.

The dimensions of the French Hollywood Jem box also seems to be the same as this Holograms box -- 372mm x 150mm x 50mm (14.6" x 5.9" x 2.0"). The height and width seems to be switched.

So who is Hollywood Jem? Up until 2006 the Jem community thought it was the Jem with yellow jacket, red pants, and light blue bustier. This was the fashion Jem worn through out most of the Hollywood Jem episodes, it also was worn in several other episodes. There was an article with a sketch of this fashion, calling it the Hollywood Jem fashion.

By Nov of 2006 a Hasbro prototype of the silver "bridesmaid" dress showed up on ebay as the lead fashion for Hollywood Jem, the tights were also labeled as "Special Promo." When I originally talk to the seller about this fashion in April 2006, he did not know what it was, only saw a picture from the show and knew he had that fashion. Much closer to the auction he seemed to know/remember more. The Seller was sure Hasbro dropped the idea and brought it back, this silver fashion lost the hat due to cost. So the Hasbro designer thinks this dress was going to be the lead fashion still, at that point, and that no other fashions were made for the assortment by the time Jem was canceled. I have only been able to conferm that this dress was a Girls' Soft design, so only a fashion. Girls' Hard would have designed the doll fashions, and only one designer designed the Jem herself -- with the exception of the Rock 'n Curl dress.

But come to find out, Hasbro sent the picture of the pink dress to Sunbow and it was labeled Hollywood Jem. So there is still some confusion, but the picture(s) sent to Sunbow seems to be the final word, saying that Hasbro was going to release Hollywood Jem in the pink dress. There is also other information from Hasbro that seems to support the pink dress a doll release. And this has been backed up by Hasbro sources.

If you heard rumors of a second Hollywood Jem introduction to the show with the sliver dress as the lead, that rumor is untrue. The reason Hollywood Jem, the Stingers, Astral and Regine were introduced in January of 1988 (as the end of the 1987/1988 season) is because the Jem cartoon would have been canceled -- with or without the 1988 doll line being canceled. Hasbro was ending all the Sunbow shows, and Jem was the last one to be discontinued.

The French 1988 Hasbro catalog has American Beauty Jem (pictured) listed as Hollywood Jem. I would assume they put the wrong picture in that catalog. But the description says something about a cologne. So the doll would have been a scented doll. It also states that the doll would have had a ravishing dress, fine jewelry, and blonde hair. Seems that Hasbro was eliminating the pink hair for this doll, or for Jem all together. The only other thing we know is the box size is slightly different. It would seem the description is talking about another doll and not a renamed American Beauty Jem.

Graphix

Who is Graphix?

She would have been a friend of the Misfits, and also the Stingers. Graphix would have been the designer for the new album covers, logos and other stuff like that. 

How do we know Graphix?

There was a prototype for the doll, and there was a character description made for the Jem Bible. Not too much is know since the character did not get introduced on the show before the show was canceled. Other then Hasbro pulled her from the 1988 line because they felt they had enough new dolls at that time.

What is Graphix’s instrument?

Graphix instrument is a video distorter. So Clash would use Distortion Modular wreck Jem concert (or prevent Jerrica from transforming into Jem), Graphix would wreck Jem's video shots and/or Jem's movies sets by using her video distorter like a magic wand.

Red Dress Pizzazz

Why a Red Dress?

Pizzazz was getting a fresh new look and longer hair style. Prototype w/new head mold can be seen on the Prototypes from ebay - New Dolls page

Why only Pizzazz?

The bands (Holograms/Misfits) were being discontinued. Only Pizzazz, Graphix and maybe Clash would have been released in 1988. But these 1988 Misfits seem to have been dropped long before the line was canceled.

Update: The designer of "Red Dress" Pizzazz and Graphix thinks a refresh Roxy, Stormer and maybe even Jetta may have been assigned to differnt designers -- so they may have been in the works, but might have been dropped later when Hasbro decided to remove the band elment from the Holograms and Misfits.
