I noticed that too. She came out in the original release of Gen 1 and should have been seen in 1984 along with Red, Yellow and Green.

Here are some scans from the 1984 Montgomery Wards Christmas catalog. I'll try and find the 1985 catalog tomorrow --- I remember the number of items per catalog significantly decreasing as time went by, though.

ALSO:
An eBay seller has a toy catalog which contains a page of Rainbow Brite furniture. It looks like a neat catalog, but the seller wants $95 for the complete catalog. :blink: Most catalogs from the 80s sell for about $20-35. http://www.anttoys.com/ebay/e155a.jpg

Thanks Aquarius. I did see those, but I thought I'd post some higher resolution scans for anyone who wanted them. :)

Ok, awesome!

A lot of my scans are here: http://wiki.rainbowbrite.co.uk/index.ph ... rite_Dolls

Some are rather thick, so it's hard to scan them without taking the whole book apart.

Awesome! Thanks so much for sharing !

And I do appreciate the high-res scans- makes it so much easier to see them.
