Shimmers
were produced by Kenner in 1986. Each set included a mother,
baby, comb and one accessory. They came in five species;
birds, butterflies, centaurs, deers and mermaids and had
shimmery bodies and brushable hair.
There were plans to release more Shimmers
and two playsets in 1987 but they were never produced.

| Unproduced Playsets |
There were two unproduced
playsets; Wonderfall Playset & Shimmers Family Set.
There were images of the new Shimmers Playsets in the 1987
Kenner Toy Catalogue, so were made as prototypes, but I
don't think they ever went as far as test marketing. |

"The WONDERFALL
Playset created the perfect play environment for
the SHIMMERS collection. This tropical paradise
is filled with fun features which will allow little
girls to expand and recreate the fantasy of SHIMMERS.

"They're here!
MIST and SWIFTBURST horse SHIMMERS with their baby,
FLICKER, who fits in her own cart! The SHIMMERS
Family Set includes all three dolls, a pearlized
comb as well as the harnessed cart, which attaches
to any adult SHIMMERS for pull along fun.
SWIFTBURST, the only
boy doll in the SHIMMERS line, has arms posed to
hold MIST's hands or waist. MIST comes complete
with long-rooted hair for comb-able fun and removable
fashion.
Both parent dolls stand about 41/2
inches tall, are articulated at the waist and their
heads can be turned.
Now SHIMMERS Family Set adds fanciful fun and romance
to the SHIMMERS fantasy world."
