#vintage blues clues

[pictureday2005]

📬we just got a letter🎶

or...well. a package. something ive had my eyes on for a while! its been sitting in my cart on ebay for about a month. eventually i caved and send the seller an offer, they accepted, and UGH IM SO HAPPY. look how cute!!

im not sure of the year. they all have the viacom copyright dated 2000, but copyright dates arent always accurate for this sorta stuff. im guessing its closer to 2003? could be joe era. cant find much info online.

i got it MOSTLY for the light switch cover. look how cute!!! its since been put up in my room and i love it so so much. theres really not a lot if merch involving periwinkle too, but hes my favorite, so that was half the motivation here tbh.

these hooks are great. i have them up by my window seat holding up a couple leis i got at a work party, but they also hold my ipad up sometimes LMAO. ive seen this exact render before on other merch, including the bedtime cloth book that the queue kicked through recently. theyre absolutely adorable.

lastly, the picture frame!! of course featuring peri again. i only just noticed that it says baby blues clues? which seems to have been just for merchandise and books targeted towards, well, babies. rather than big kids, that is. they all kinda have this very specific "soft" art style to them that i enjoy quite a bit.

but yeah the stars/moons/clouds fit my rooms vibe super well and i love them. im so glad i actually bought them, having more vintage blues clues in my collection is always exciting 💙🐾

so, there were a lot of weird gimmicks with plushes in the 90s, especially things aimed at very young kids. of course blues clues is no exception.

one of my FAVORITES are the bath time plushes. there were quite a few franchises that had bath plushes as well. as for these, im not sure on the exact time frame these were made, but they were definitely a thing within the first year of the show. so, '99.

theyre about 10 inches tall and made out of a nylon-esque fabric rather than a plush one. likely to make it lighter so the water would drain out quicker. as cute as they are, they probably got NASTY. maybe not as bad as your typical rubber bath toys but like....

anyway. was looking around for some other plushes to add to my ever-growing blues clues collection, and LOOK WHAT I FOUND

they brought them bad for modern blues clues!!! hell, i found out theyre STILL making these for other shows too. i even found a bluey one (same hat) and a bunch of other current kids shows.

i honestly thought these would be sucked into the 90s void forever, but im pleasantly surprised.
