LOS ANGELES (June 9, 2003) - With much anticipation, the newest girls from Jan McLean's collection of FUNKY LITTLE DIVAS will be arriving in Specialty & Mass Merchant stores this fall. LOLLIPOP GIRLS is just one of the hot properties from Unimax, a company focusing on quality execution, quality brands, and quality licenses for today's toy market. The girls made their retail debut at the American International Toy Fair in New York in 2002.

The LOLLIPOP GIRLS are fashion icons! Long legged, big eyed, sweet smiles, great hair and sassy clothes. They have a unique style combining youthful innocence with grown-up confidence and attitude. The Inaugural Edition Girls were introduced at New York Toy Fair in February 2002 and their popularity sailed off the charts. Unimax has not been able to keep the girls in stock. The newest members of this elite group include Nicole from Norway, Kimmi from Katmandu, Alani from Auckland, Neena from New York, Milli from Milan, and Suzi-K from Seattle.

The "CITY GIRLS OF THE WORLD" come from different countries and different cultures but have many things in common... they are virtuous and gorgeous, they have the ultimate fashion sense, and they have unabashed personalities, that all together makes them the most sought after fashion models in the world. They embody the sheer sense of beauty, brains, and bravado to which all young girls aspire.

LOLLIPOP GIRLS have proven all the rage in the specialty toy and collector doll shops across the US, Australia and New Zealand. The initial mass-market success has generated more interest and much greater market distribution. The two- category-two-product plan was created to provide greatest distribution potential while preserving the retail value and prestige in the toy market.
