Nov 2009 Rainbow Brite United Media Press Release

Post by Rainbow Brite UK »

It isn't much more then what we have heard before, but I thought you would want to know about it.
Here is a small quote from the artical.
On Rainbow Brite’s new look, Diana Stuart, creative vice-president for Hallmark Properties, says “Rainbow Brite is returning to Rainbow Land as a 10-year-old girl after spending some years back home on Earth with her family. We wanted to bring her back older, stronger, and wiser with abilities that will speak to a new generation of kids both in the physical and virtual world. Like the original, she still appeals to children four to eight.”

Stuart continues, “When we talk to fans or go to the fan blogs, they pause for a minute with the new look, and then they say, ‘We always drew her a little bit older when we drew her ourselves,’ and a lot of the new elements feel very right to them. The intent certainly is to keep her values very much the same as they were and very wholesome.”

At least we know what to expect in merch. 3 horses, 3 dolls, and a larger 15 inch doll in the original style as well.

So what is the usual release date for spring toys in general?

I could probably find out at work tomorrow. I'm sure someone in toy dpt. must know. If not, I'm sure someone on these boards must know.

I'm curious. Who are these supposed fans they showed the designs to and go their approval for?

The new rainbow brite sounds and looks a lot older than 10. Is the new rainbow brite going to be released in episodes on TV or in movies?

All I have to say is dude...this is the crazy woman who keeps taking things and telling us they are facts. I now really do not believe the Moonglo spelling and Rainbow's background. Anything she says is just questionable.

Where has she read this about fans opinions? The majority of opinions are negative from response of fans. I have not really heard or seen much positive response for all of this. It is like they are trying to make it seem that fans are fine with all of this. Just like changing things to fit with what they re coming out with.

Cool boots? pffft please only Rainbow's boots were ever like that. How about we dive into the budget and give everyone different foot wear?

I got a chuckle from your post, C9, I really did. :)

But yeah I really want to know what fans they are talking about in that press release. What blogs did they all visit now? :/

I'd like to know what fans they're talking about as well. It's true that most fan artists draw RB and friends as older, but I've never seen anyone say what they quoted. Very strange.

I can't wait to see the 15" doll! And can't wait to find out when "spring" is. I'm impatient! lol

At least many of us are confused about that. Methinks I sense some exaggeration to make themselves look good... One quick look around and one can find that no one is echoing what they say.

Definitely will be interested in seeing how they change the doll for this release as well.
