Rainbows Toys Christmas Catalogue 1992

 Before The Entertainer in Keynsham, the space was occupied by Rainbows Toys. Even the loading bay out back still bares a Rainbows Toys logo. Rainbows was popular, but its still good to have a local highstreet toyshop all the same.

Recently found is this product catalog for the Christmas 92 season. The Totally Toys logo also appears twice on the bottom so you don't forget it easily. Totally Toys are a separate highstreet retailer or possibly a sister business. They still have stores around the map, most notably a Bristol store I've been visiting long before Toys R Us started up business on British shores. More on them another time...

Never worked with Spongebob anything before. As far as toylines for the show are concerned, the Fisher-Price Imaginext toys (mainly found exclusively on Amazon and in Toys R US) are far more impressive than the main commercial line.

I wanted to throw together another piece that embodied friendship more than conflict. Spongebob & Patrick have been one of TV lands best friendships over the last decade and a half. A lot of Nickelodeon shows have been about two pals, but these sea-dwellers have outrun them all.

Oh, that reminds me. Happy 15th Anniversary Spongebob!
