no, it was similar to she-ra I guess.  Maybe it was another fakie, but I don't remember.

She had gold armor on and a metal sheild with a large "ruby" in it.  Long golden blonde hair I think

Teddy Ruxpin is cool if you put a modified Primus tape in there (which syncs up with the music)..

Strawberry Shortcake.. the smell used to be a bit too strong for me.. but it's a girl's toy, so I don't think it's ok for me to judge it based strictly on smell..

I can't think of a toy that I felt was bad.. not off hand anyways.. and that's even after scanning www.inthe80s.com/toys/

Teddy Ruxpin was the worst. What's the deal with that Primus tape?
