Alright, Rainbow Brite fans, saddle up, because Stormy is on her way!

One of the most interesting (and powerful) Color Kids, Stormy has been a fan favorite ever since the 1985 film “Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer” introduced her to the world. A prototype was created and photographed for the 1986 release, but the line was discontinued before the doll could be mass-produced. However, an official doll was finally released by Hallmark in 2015, as part of the 30th anniversary celebration.

RAINBOW BRITE’S CLOUDY COMPANION

For those who may not know, Stormy is a young girl who resides in the clouds above Rainbow Land. She’s Rainbow Brite’s friend in charge of clouds, thunder, rain, and snow. Stormy rides a beautiful, deep-purple horse called Skydancer, who stamps his hooves and creates lightning bolts and booming thunder! She’s a delightful little chatterbox with a glint of lightning in her eyes. Stormy is important to the world of color because, without the clouds and moisture in the air, grass and flowers wouldn’t grow, and streams and rivers wouldn’t flow! There’s a friendly rivalry between Stormy and Rainbow Brite, as well as between their horses, Starlite and Sky Dancer, leading to many exciting adventures in Rainbow Land.

COLLECT THEM ALL!

As part of the 40th anniversary celebration, The Loyal Subjects (TLS) will be allowing Stormy to shine in ways she never has before. Stormy will be released in three new formats: a 12″ doll, an 8″ plush, and a 5.5″ fashion doll.

The new 12″, 5.5″ and 8″ dolls

While the 12″ and 5.5″ dolls will be released in September, the 8″ plush is already available for purchase on Amazon. It’s incredibly soft, with bright colors, and I love how adorable her face is. These products join the already-released Cheebee figure, exclusive to 5 Below, and the Micro-Cheebees, currently on back-order from Amazon.

THE RAINBOW REVITALIZATION CONTINUES!

I love that this line of dolls began with some of the most collectible characters from the original line. Stormy joins Rainbow Brite and Moonglow, along with Tickled Pink, who will also be released in September. The world of Rainbow Land is building and getting more colorful by the day. I’m excited to see who’s next!

More Rainbow Brite soon so…
