The Raccoons Turn 32! Stay Tuned For A New Look Return...

Two huge bits of new here for you peeps, firstly the absolute legendary retro 80s cartoon The Raccoons turns 32 years old today (yes... this makes us feel old too), and secondly, it's back!!

Yep, during our recent interview with The Raccoons creator Kevin Gillis, we discovered that he is busy working away on a Raccoons comeback and they are creating all new episodes for us to binge on the floor in front of the TV in our PJs with a bowl of cereal.... just like old times. Exciting!

With a slightly new and more modern look using the latest animation technology, The Raccoons are set to hit our screens once more with a crisp, bold new look which aims to still capture the magic of the classic show we all know and love.

What's more, Kevin kindly send us some snaps of the initial designs for this return and we couldn't resist sharing them with you guys. Let's take a look!

Just from this logo of the mighty Evergreen Forest, we can see that things are looking bolder, brighter, and more crisp. Moving with the times, modern animation allows shows to be made much quicker and with much more dynamic movements.

Luckily, we have a good friend to help us out in the form of The Raccoons creator Kevin Gillis!

Like busy little Raccoons ourselves, we've been hard at work with Kevin to create some all new and exclusive Raccoons T-Shirts which are now on the site! We have one new design which has been lovingly screen printed onto four styles and colours including grey & white tees, blue vest and a grey baseball raglan TShirt!

Time To Cel-ebrate! New and EXCLUSIVE Cartoon Tees Now In...

Growing up through the 80s and 90s, we had hands down THE best selection of cartoons to pick from (not being biased!). Waking up of a morning and checking to see if our mum was busy making packed lunches, we knew that if the lunchboxes weren't out, it was Saturday and we were free!

Grabbing a bowl of whichever cereal had the best toy that week, we set up base camp in front of the telly so we were ready to catch some of most iconic cartoons ever. It was bliss!

As one of the biggest retro ambassadors in the land, it's our duty to bring you guys more and more nostalgia feels through our exclusive designs which is what we've just gone and done with our fab new range of Cartoon T-Shirts featuring some of the classic shows we grew up with.

Take a peep at our latest range...
