    Other than my little pony, I don’t think I recognise any of these characters. Hopefully you’re about to make me feel young and not old!

        This is a singular year in the 1980s. If someone has a run of US published Marvel comics this was an ad that ran promoting the fall cartoon line up.

        Rainbow Brite was 1984-86

        Gummi Bears was 1984-1991

        Jem was 1985-88

        This was the fall line up in 1985 or 1986. Im inclined towards 1985 as there was a Strawberry Shortcake animated release that year.

          According to my quick search, Popples first aired in 1986 in the USA, so that probably rules out 1985.

            But 1985 is the last Strawberry Shortcake until 1992. Maybe Im misremembering the context of the image or it was reused for other purposes overseas?

      Thos is a print ad that ran in Marvel comics for the lineup on a US network.

      The back: She-Ra of She-Ra Princess of Power (He-Man spinoff) and Jemm of Jemm and the Holograms (show about a band)

      The fromt: A Carebear I dont recall which one,I dont recall the blue thing, A Gummi Bear (this was the start of Disney doing high quality shows on major networks on Saturdays this was a good cartoon for the time), Rainbow Brite, My Little Pony, and StrawberryShortcake.
