I recently came across a Starlite PVC at a toy convention. I was just curious about it. It was made in W. Germany- so these were only released in Germany? Are they rare? I have never seen any of the Rainbow Brite PVCs in person let alone a German one. Of course I had to buy it

Sounds like you found one of the Minikins. Is this it?

They are cool!

Yes, that's him! So they weren't released in the US? He was cute and I couldn't pass him up

Correct. They were not sold in the US. Good find

Wow that's an excellent find! I'm so glad you found it!

Me, too! I'm just surprised that it wasn't released in US and I found it at a toy convention. I may have to get some others someday. The Puppy Brite PVC looks really cute. Too bad they didn't make a Kitty Brite one.

Great find! I love that Starlite, he is so solid!

Here are my minis to share- The Minikins included Rainbow Brite, Red Butler, Twink, Starlite, Canary and Buddy Blue. The packaging is really cute, I've never found a MIP Starlite :D

The one to the left of the Minikins are from the UK. I think they are erasers. I've only got the one Buddy Blue still in his package. (There was Rainbow, Canary, Red, Buddy Blue, Twink and Romeo- and I THINK Lurky is an eraser guy too, although I've only ever seen him once.

The US figures are out front. (The ones off to the left are customs- I wanted a Kitty Brite too)

The poseables and stampers also managed to squeeze into the pic...

Cute! Did you make the Kitty Brite? How was it done- is it an existing PVC or is it made of clay? I'd like to see a close up pic if possible

Yes I made the Kitty Brite - just painted her with some acrylics. I think she was a Strawberry Shortcake Custard in her previous life :D

Sorry I don't have a close-up of her...
