Pink writing on box

Hello,
I've recently purchased a Barbie and the Rocker Barbie in the original box on email. When I got the doll, her outfit was different then the one I have packed away from my original. I noticed that there were two different boxes printed for her. One box has her with a green and black background the the name words Barbie and Rockers in rainbow print. The other has just pink print for the words and a yellow background behind her. I can't find anything online about this!

Different Rocker Barbie
by: Jax

I had the 1st version of this doll & a friend also in the UK had her. The mateial of the leggings & top on her doll were different. I know that over the years the UK has had the same doll in the stores produced by 2 countries, with collectors saying that the issue from say China would have better screening than the one from Indonesia. So that could account for slight differences in boxes.

I know that there were different versions of Barbies made for different countries. They differed a bit from the ones we got? That could maybe be why. Otherwise it might've been made a different year. I would suggest looking at the box date if its not opened, or her body markings if it is open. Then look her up online and compare the date? Also there were friends of Rocker Barbie made with different boxes. I hope this helps a little?

My guess would be that the Barbie you have pictured is the first issue #1140 and the other is a later issue.
