Pretty much. Probably not as dark. Something else I thought of though... I started thinking that instead of the heart, Sunriser may have a sun on her head instead. Starlite kept his star of course, but every other item is marked. Rainbow always has her Color Belt with the star, Twink with star on his pouch, and Rainbow's star wand. Tickled Pink now has a sun on her belt and a sun in her wand, with Twilight having a sun on her pouch. Same for Moonglo and Nite... I'm thinking Shimmer may carry the crescent moon as well.FanChan wrote:Chibi Rachy wrote:Yeah, we are.

Which means it'll look a lot like Skydancer -.-;;

On the other hand, it could be that he *IS* skydancer, but with a name change because he's no longer with stormy, which sucks of course. I know we all don't want them to leave out stormy.
Leaving out Stormy would be a HUGE slap in the face to long-time RB fans, who want a Stormy doll above all else. Surely, surely they wouldn't do that to us...FanChan wrote:If they leave out Stormy, I'm prepared to boycott @_@ Not that they'd notice. But it would be rather upsetting.

They didn't necessarily seek us out, but I did contact Playmates Toys as soon as I heard they had bought the toy license. I was able to share info with them regarding what is most popular with RB fans, what we'd like to see, etc and they seemed genuinely interested. So I don't think they're turning a deaf ear to us at allFanChan wrote:You know, I seriously have to wonder if they even consulted any Rainbow Brite fans in the making of this re-release.

This is just the first wave. I'm sure they have big plans for later releases...but what would be the fun if they spoiled it all for us now? 
As my mother-in-law would say...there are so few surprises in life once you grow up...enjoy the ones you can Let's hope they don't leave her out. I'm not sure how her redesign would look, but Stormy seems like a logical addition to the original trio... you've got your color, day, and night girls. Why not add a weather one too?Rainbow Brite wrote:Leaving out Stormy would be a HUGE slap in the face to long-time RB fans, who want a Stormy doll above all else.

I suppose it's something we'll never really know. There may have been other fans like Rainbow Brite who did contact them and let their opinions and voices be known though. I'm willing to bet that there might have been.FanChan wrote:You know, I seriously have to wonder if they even consulted any Rainbow Brite fans in the making of this re-release.
