KANSAS CITY, Mo. (PRWEB) September 01, 2015

Fans of Rainbow Brite™, the 1980s character created by Hallmark, are in for a colorful treat.

The first of Hallmark's new products reviving the classic Rainbow Brite characters are now available for sale in Hallmark Gold Crown® stores and on Hallmark.com. A new RainbowBrite.com website also launched recently, celebrating all the colorful fun of the classic and current characters.

"We're thrilled to bring Rainbow Brite fans the classic characters they love so they can share these colorful characters with a new generation," says Hilary Butler, product manager for Hallmark. "We've stayed true to the spirit of the original Rainbow Land characters and look forward to continuing Rainbow Brite's legacy."

Classic Rainbow Brite products now available in Hallmark Gold Crown stores and on Hallmark.com include:

   •  Hallmark itty bittys®, the popular line of four-inch-tall plush characters, introduces four individual Rainbow Brite classic characters – Rainbow Brite, Twink, I.Q. Sprite and O.J. Sprite ($6.95 each) – and a four-character collector set featuring characters Indigo, Red Butler, Hammy Sprite and Romeo Sprite ($29.95 for set).

Proven Fan Favorites
In June, Hallmark offered a Limited Edition run of an exclusive batch of Rainbow Brite itty bittys®. Only 500 of each of the six Rainbow Brite Limited Edition itty bittys characters were produced, and they sold out on Hallmark.com in five days.

RainbowBrite.com
The RainbowBrite.com website was imagined and developed by Feeln, the creators of the new Rainbow Brite animated series that debuted in 2014. The website brings the characters from Feeln's Rainbow Brite series to life with colorful activities, videos and rainbow fun for fans.
