It’s about that time of the year where we here at Forever Fun start to put on our thinking caps and really delve into ideas for 2013.  We always keep in mind your feedback and requests, this time we would like to ask a direct question… How are you using our Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer^® Ultimate Holiday Figurine Collection?  Are you putting them in villages, setting them up on your mantel, or putting them on your tree? Terri and I have had many a conversation regarding this and we really want your feedback.

Just like Santa’s elves, here at Forever Fun we’re preparing for the Christmas season. As many of you know this is the time of year that we begin our sales meetings for our 2012 product.  This means Terri and I are busy getting together mock-ups for our sales team. In midst of the spray mount, spray paint, cutting and gluing we have managed to neglect our blogging duties. We have been reading all of your comments and questions and discussing many of them as soon as they are posted. We have not forgotten about our loyal fans, we have simply been loading up the sleigh and hoping for a great 2012 season.

As you can see we are presenting quiet a bit of product. Everything pictured is in that ever-uncertain land of possibility. We are hopeful for the newer items to become a production reality, yet we all know that is dependent upon buyers and consumer trends.

With that said, the 2011 product is still on our minds. We are working on the web site. Be on the look out for updates. Please continue to let us know what your thoughts and feelings are about the product that you are seeing out on the shelves. You feed back is greatly appreciated and always taken into consideration.

And the study… and the living room…

Forever Fun is proud to show off our new Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer figures for 2011. To kick off our figures, we are excited to introduce NEW Young Buck Rudolph. He’s ready to guide Santa through the winter storm with his red nose and green harness. He comes on his own attached snow base, which makes him perfect for display and play.  With Rudolph up front, Santa is on his way.

Clean your dashboards and desks; Forever Fun‘s Peanuts Bobble Heads are well on their way. These guys are going to be the perfect stocking stuffer for 2011. This trio comes ready to deck the halls.

Every one who loves the holiday classic show, Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer®, knows the multitude of characters that make up the world of Rudolph®. Over the years, Playing Mantis, Inc. and next Round 2 LLC, have produced a complete line of standard poseable figures, playsets, ultimate figures and pvc figurines based on the classic show. In the previous posts, we have been introducing the new size of poseables being produced by Round 2 for 2011 and we couldn’t be more excited. BUT, actually there’s a reason to up the ante on excitement, particularly if you are a long time collector of our Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer product. This new size brings our poseable figures in perfect scale with a couple of our favorite character replicas. Pictured above is a photo of our Ultimate Humble Bumble figure last produced in 2004, Deluxe Yukon Cornelius from 2010 and our new mid-scale 2011 Hermey and Rudolph holiday poseable figures.
