I was undressing Jackson and...

I first noticed his little yingyang tattoo, how cute! But then I noticed his copyright on his lower back. It says (c) 1999 Mattel. There is no way that these guys are that old...they wouldn't wait that long to make the dolls would they?

No, that is very strange. Hm, that is rather odd. I always check dates on my dollies and the oldest is 2008

The base of his neck

His hair is brittle though, and bits of it are EVERYWHERE~
He's going to the bath with me to fix the stiffness and wash away the bits (he'll just be turned the other way )

Ok you got me curious because I just got my Jackson yesterday and yes the bits of hair are annoying,love the tattoo though.  I looked on the lower part of his back and mine also says 1999 Mattel. That is odd. Do you think it could be a factory error or because where they come from? Mine says made in Indonesia, I don't know if that matters or not.

Are they somehow reusing parts from an older doll that came out in 1999?

Does Holt have the same tat?

Yes!

Oh man, thanks for making me want those two even more....

[Rainbowjuice]

My Jackson is winging his way home as we speak!
I'm undecided if I should wash out his hair or not.

Does anyone have before and after pics?

[rayedelsol]

Also, can someone post pics of both Jackson and Holt's tattoos? I want to see this

Well, as for Jacksons hair before, that can be found on google....
Here's an after washing pic of my guy, love it now, he has Robeeca's texture hair.

I have no idea what Robecca's hair is like but I will probably be more inclined to wash the gel out.
