I first became aware of this figure early on in my collecting days (roughly 10 years ago). She was raved about on my favorite online toy resource at the time, Action Girl's Guide to Female Figures. At the time, however, I was very picky and would only buy non-cartoony 80's figure like GIJoe, He-Man, and ThunderCats. So it wasn't until very recently that I picked up this figure in a lot on eBay. I must say I'm very impressed with this little lady. She's fun, well-sculpted, and a great likeness of both her cartoon and videogame counterparts. I'm not too knowledgeable on the Earthworm Jim franchise, but from what I can gather it was a pretty unique development. Playmates developed the characters for an original videogame with the intent of creating merchandising potential. The original Sega/Genesis game was released in 1994, the same year as the first action figures. The cartoon series didn't debut until a full year later in 1995. However, the action figures seem to incorporate the details of the cartoon moreso than the videogame.
