This:

...a new innovative program launch is underway featuring Rainbow
and her best friends Tickled Pink and Moonglow.



is a pretty good sign that those three are the only three that we'll be seeing for this relaunch. So much for the rest of the characters T-T



Even so, I'm excited to see what everything will look like.
"I hope you know what you're doing, Rainbow."
"You still doubt me, after all this time?"
"I don't doubt," Krys said as he paused at the door. "I worry."

um, I thought we already knew that the new rb dolls were coming out in fall 2009. Am I missing something or is this nothing new?

You're missing something :P The holiday release will be in Toys 'R Us stores only. Other stores will follow after the holiday season. It helps us narrow down where to look come the holiday flood of toy releases

What I found funny is the only thing different between this press release and the previous one, is they added the Toys R Us "headline" to it. All the body text is exactly the same. I was expecting some pictures or something.

Rainbowbrite84 kindly sent me a sheet of the stickers after neither of my local Wal-Marts had them and they are even more beautiful in person than on screen. I can't wait to see the new merchandise!

They are quite nice :) Watercolor sent me 2 sheets and I'm really thinking of using one to decorate the backside of my laptop. I need something to replace the old daycare pictures anyway.

On the contrary, StarVoyager. The press releases are different.

The October 2008 Press release is here, if you wish to compare.

The new information in this new press release is as follows:

1: Toys R Us is getting the toys exclusively this holiday season.

2: Other dolls will follow at select retailers in 2010.

3:
Empowering a new generation of girls to spread hope and happiness, a new innovative program launch is underway featuring Rainbow and her best friends Tickled Pink and Moonglow.
When I read "a new innovative program launch"....I read "new animated show". Toys R Us is known for carrying not old dolls, but DVD released animated programs (Strawberry Shortcake, Holly Hobbie, Polly World *Polly Pocket*, My Little Pony, and more!) I wouldn't be surprised if one is being made for this as well. :)

4: And another new piece of information would be the launch of the new https://www.rainbowbrite.com in November 2009.

As for you're hunger for new pictures of products, we are working on trying to get some, but until then be patient. Be happy Rainbow Brite is being reborn. "Cheer up, Glum face!"
