Blinkins :: Plush Babies

"Let their love light shine!"

Blinkins were produced by LJN Toys in 1985-87. They were fairy-glowbug creatures who lived in Blinkin Land who had small wings which lit up and glowed in rainbow colours when their bodies were squeezed. They each came with a pet or accessory and a butterfly comb.

Along with the small dolls Blinkins were large plush versions, playsets, accessories, books and videos.

Plush Babies

"Soft, cuddly and huggable! Baby Blinkins are adorable, big eyed baby dolls with light-up floral antennaes and light-up bottoms. They light up at your touch - remove your hands and the light is gone."

There were three Baby Blinkins produced and had a soft body and brushable hair. They also had a plastic face, bottom and antennas which all lit up when the dolls were touched (hugged?). They each came with a bib and soft bottle. Baby Beamer also came with a removable bonnet. They were about 12 inches high.

There was also a plush version of Blink, but which set she came from is yet unknown.

Flower Perfume

"The Blinkins dolls Flower Perfume collection arrive, each doll brings a different delicious perfume!"

There were five soft-bodied Flower Perfume dolls produced, the last line to be added in 1987 and with a very limited production run.

The boxes were originally designed as per the Baby line and was to included a flower-shaped comb, but due to poor sales the packaging was simplified and comb removed before they hit hit the shops.
