Packaging Variants: A listing of the packaging that Winning Is Everything can be found in, that I know of, so far!
*I don't own all of these fashions NRFB so I can't say which, if any posters and inserts originally came with it. Bold listings are those I have used to create this ID page. Anything in Italics I haven't actually seen but have good reason to believe exists. If you have any photos or information/corrections to share, I'd love to hear about it!

Other images of Winning Is Everything (generally unproduced/prototypes/promotional figures)	Differences from produced fashion (if any)
The photo used in both the first year Jem catalogue poster and the 1986 Hasbro Toy Fair Catalogue	-has a mylar diamond on the stomach, and it's missing the leg scarf. Otherwise looks pretty much like the produced one.
1986 German Leaflet, and a 1986 Topolino (same photo)	also has a mylar diamond on the stomach, and it's missing the leg scarf. Otherwise looks pretty much like the produced one.

It was featured on the cartoon.	It's significantly darker blue than the produced fashion. The hat is also shown to be shiny, there are lots of bracelets, a different design on the stomach, and the shoes are navy, not pink! I like Pizzazz's "Jemstar" earrings too!
