*I don't own this fashion 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!

The same photo is used for the 1987 US Hasbro Toy Fair Catalogue, the 1987 France/UK Toy Fair Catalogue, the Second Year Jem Catalogue Poster and the Second Year package art The official photographs the gold and black ribbon appears to be black with metallic black threads. It's uncertain how the neck tie fastens in the back in the official photo. It doesn't look like it's tied to me.

It was featured on the cartoon. Cartoon version looks very much like what was produced. There were no earrings with the toy fashion, the cartoon version looks like fishnet rather than the finer mesh polkadot pattern in the produced fashion.
Shown left is a reworked version of the original model cel, which can be viewed on Felicity-Chan's cel gallery.
