Title: [ID: Pop Style / Pop Star] Mysterious head
Post by: nhtpirate1980 on Monday 26 April 2010, 08:21 pm

I am searching all information about this toy :

It is written " b-t IM 1987 " at the back of the head.

I've seen this toy here:
http://www.angelfire.com/la/Holograms/similardolls.html

The owner of that site doesn't seem to know much about it either, unfortunately, but apparently it's either a knockoff of or somehow related to Jem.

Although this toy has been sort of ID-ed as Popstar I'll leave the topic in the unidentifed board for a bit just incase anyone else can add anything. :)

I noticed that the two heads below have "Popstar - Princess" and "Popstar - Rockstar" written on them where as nhtpirate1980's one above has "Pop Style - Riviera". Different sets perhaps?
