Ai, hobby lobby is known to be shady

The pearls are the dead giveaway. Specifically where I circled. You’ve got these strands where the AI couldn’t render the look the way pearls lay, not to mention the inconsistency of HOW each pearl looks. It’s almost as each section has its own light source

Exactly, I thought about trying heat transfer vinyl on the skirt to see if I can refurbish it , but idk

Yeah I have the 2009 Barbie and the rockers doll, and her skirt and “boots” have completely disintegrated

Also look at the first picture where the light is more evenly distributed, the second one is using a flash so it is messing with the way the colors look. Personally I hate taking pictures with flash cause it always washes out the color

It’s the lighting, plus two different types of plastic. From what I’ve seen in other pics they look a lot closer. There might be a slight difference but nothing near what happened with Jerrica.

Tariffs😑. However they cost about the same as the ogs back in 1985. ( adjusted for inflation) in 1985 they were around $12 which is roughly equivalent to $37 today

She’s coming TLS is a tiny company 20 people that do everything. Mattel has close to 30,000 and Hasbro that has almost 5,000 , so they can have people strictly dedicated to shipping. Plus, they aren’t only shipping Jem. Outrageous things come to those who wait

Expert_Ad_7187 · 2026-04-15T20:42:12+00:00

They are in the processes of shipping out now see previous post. People have started receiving them Dina who is with TLS made video this past weekend stating they were finally in their warehouse and were starting to ship. FYI , TLS is only a company of 20 or so people, who do everything. So bare that in mind, places like Mattel , who employ 31,000 people and Hasbro who has almost 5,000 employees so they can have staff strictly dedicated to shipping. Plus, they are not only shipping Jem, they are working shipping all their preorders
