The Perfect Way To Rainbow Brite-n Up Your House!
Remember growing up thinking....when I'm older I'm going to create the most amazing, bestist, most awesome house full of all my favourite things! Put up that wall paper your parents wouldn't let you have, hell even put a fireman's pole into the kitchen or have a slide for stairs! Why not right?
For most of us this will sadly remain a dream for the most part, but there are some unsung heroes amongst us who keep that dream alive...not only that, they take the jump and make it reality!
Yep one superfan has been busy creating her very own Rainbow Brite themed house that is every 80s kids dream!
Receiving her first Rainbow Brite doll for her fifth birthday, Katy Haile, from Apex in North Carolina, was hooked and has kept her passion alive in true style!
Katie has worked tirelessly and has transformed her home into The Rainbow Land Museum which boasts some amazing and oh-so colourful decoration as well as a whole host of amazing retro toys and memorabilia. Take a peep....

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 88
Wizbitsâ magic hat! Is it the Weekend!
So in a not too distant post apocalyptic Earth, let us be your marauding horde of flesh hungry zombies, clumsily ploughing through the debris of a broken and deserted city street. As we go moaningily looking with our good eye for retro movie mayhem, well hobble, limp and drag our half an eaten carcass for cinematic awesomeness before cornering and ripping apart the fresh plump flesh of celluloid wonder.
Gave a happy retro weekend!

Brighten Up Your Keyllection With Our New LEGO Keylights!
With so much buzz surrounding LEGO at the moment thanks to the release of The Lego Movie just last week, we've been LEGOing crazy for the little Minifigures that make up the best part of our favourite retro toy.
We can't even begin to count the hours we must have spent growing up playing with our ever expanding collection of Lego. Much like a grandad's watch or mothers clock, LEGO is always passed down through the generations for the next set of eager young hands to get to work and think up even bigger and more unique things to build and more often than not, destroy in a spectacular smash sending coloured bricks everywhere in preparation for someone to stand on in just their socks...OUCH!!!
To celebrate and show off our passion for this giant among toys even today we just had to get our hands on these amazing new Keyrings.
Banish the boring set of keys in style! Liven up your set with one of our amazing LEGO keylights that have been inspired by some of the most iconic Star Wars characters, Superheroes, and even a villain or two. Enjoy!
