Cast

Reception

Feeln's miniseries was not well received by critics and as well as many in the Rainbow Brite fandom, as it was critictized for its unfaithfulness to the 1980s version, poor flash animation, eye-hurting graphics and effects, and poor writing which it only lasted for one season. Also it did not produce any merchandise. As such, it has not been given a generation number but is sometimes called Gen 4A because it arrived before the Gen 4 dolls and horses arrived in the shops near the end of the following month and is sometimes called Gen 4B.[citation needed] Although a Starlite Pillow Pal was produced by Pillow Pets during this time, it was actually not part of the Playmates line of toys.[citation needed]
