Random 'Girl Power' cartoon; 80's/90's?


I always remember a cartoon that came out after the whole Jem scene, either at the end of the 80's or the early 90's. I have no idea of the title, but all my mind comes up with is Strawberry Shortcake. I know it definitely wasn't the same style of the cute little muffin hatted characters, so I don't know why I keep coming back to that title. Anyway.

The main character had blonde hair and a valley girl type attitude. She (I assume) was some sort of chosen one and was taken to another world to probably do something heroic. The one thing I remember is she was given a suit of armor, and in one scene had to cross a raging body of water (river?) standing on a wooden raft or something similar. The only line I can recall was something along the lines of "Get me out of the metal jump suit!" and I think she changed back into her normal clothes.

I know that was pretty vague, but I'm sure someone had to have seen it besides me. I have a feeling it was either a TV movie, or a pilot for a series. I don't think it got picked up.

it sort of sounds like you're talk about Sailor Moon... but she didn't have a suit of armor, and she lasted for 4 seasons in the US. If you can remember what it looked like, type sailor moon into the IMDb search engine, and click on the tv series, maybe that could be it.

Sailor Moon also had 3 movies that came to the US, but none of them had anything like that, witha river and suit of armor. Hope this helps.

If not, and you have a yahoo email account, there's a thing called yahoo answers, and you can type your question there, someone might be able to help you. good luck on your search and let me know if you found anything ;) good luck

She-Ra? Maybe try the website retroland. They have every animated show from the 50s onward.

Sounds to me almost like Princess Gwenevere and The Jewel Riders. The main character is a blonde and her and her other friends wear armor.
