OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE
Integrity Toys, Inc. in collaboration with Hasbro, Inc. Announce JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS Collectible Fashion Dolls
First of the High-End Collectible Fashion Doll Line Based on the 1980s Animated Series Available at the 2012 Comic-Con International in San Diego
Integrity
Toys, Inc., under license from Hasbro, Inc., today announced a
brand-new series of high-end collectible fashion dolls based on the
1980's ground breaking animated series JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS, launching
at 2012 Comic-Con International in San Diego.
Inspired
by the "truly outrageous" characters created by Hasbro over two decades
ago and cherished by fans and collectors alike ever since, this
nostalgic retro doll line is designed to pay homage to both the animated
series and its original companion doll line, originally marketed from
1985 to 1987. Created for fans by fans of the rock 'n shock pink haired
pop-culture icon and her outrageous world, this classic commemorative
line will feature the high-end details, quality accessories and
ultra-limited edition sizes that fans of Integrity Toys have come to
appreciate through the years.
This
first doll in this exciting commemorative collection will be JEM AND
THE HOLOGRAMS Special Edition Doll: HOLLYWOOD JEM, one of the most
requested animated-based looks. This doll will be available for
purchase at the HasbroToyShop booth #3329 during Comic-Con International
in San Diego at an approximate retail price of $125 and following the
convention, at www.HasbroToyShop.com.
The
dolls, created by noted collectible manufacturer Integrity Toys, will
mark the debut of a newly sculpted fully articulated body and likeness
of the rock star wearing a high-end costume, delivered in collector
grade packaging. Future additions to the line will be announced in the
months following Comic-Con International in San Diego via a dedicated
web page located at http://www.integritytoys.com/jemandtheholograms,
which has been created to bring fans all the latest information about
the Classic JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS collectible line moving forward.
"As
children of the 80's ourselves, working on this project with the Hasbro
team was a dream come true for our entire team. JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS
has been a major influence for us," says Alain Tremblay, marketing
director of Integrity Toys, Inc.
"We
wanted to remain true to the spirit of the original doll line, while
paying homage to the animated series, which is something that we as JEM
AND THE HOLOGRAMS fans always wanted through the years," says Vaughn
Sawyers, Integrity's head designer.
JEM
AND THE HOLOGRAMS made a noted return on television in 2011 airing on
The HUB TV Network in the U.S., followed by the much anticipated release
of a sleek DVD box set last fall that features all 65 episodes of the
original animated series. "We wanted to pay homage to the characters and
offer collectible dolls to fans that would showcase the essence of
their favorite characters. We admire the high quality dolls produced by
Integrity Toys, so this relationship made perfect sense," says Bryony
Bouyer, Senior Vice President, Global Franchise Development for Hasbro.
Get ready for some serious glamour fashion and fame; it's show time Synergy!
