For me personlly I LOVED this doll range. I was big into Madonna as a kid and so when a popstar doll came out I was hooked.

 

I remember the day I saw Jem. It was October 1986 and I was in our local Toy N Hobby (which was massive, it's now Iceland) I had checked the usual isles biding my time to get to the doll isle to check out Barbie & Sindy. I saw a whole shelf of Jem and my jaw dropped!

 

I spent ages trying to pick one with my Grandma as there where 10 girls to choose from. I narrowed it down to the lead Singer Jem or Pizzazz of the Misfits (Jems rival band) My Grandma liked Pizzazz best and she had a casette of music with her too.

 

The week after, I was desperate to get to town and my sister came too, Pam got Jem the movie on video and I got Jem we where hooked.

 

Pam still loved her Sindy's but everytime I could I would get a Jem doll until I had them all...

Whoops so easily done! I have done that many a time. Try to be much more disciplined these days... mostly!
I wanted a Darci, but I was not able to find one at the time, only Maxie was in the stores.
That is the best Jem collection I have ever seen in my entire life!
