Just a few days ago, I came across a kind of California Raisins figure that I had never seen before. I came here to the checklist, and the figures I found aren't listed anywhere on the site. The figures are 5 or 6 inches tall and kind of flat. Their arms and legs are bendable. On the bottom of the feet, it says Calrab 1987 Applause.
Looking the figures up, I can find people selling them (I've bought a set) but can't find where they come from and where they were sold. As I said, they're not listed on the California Raisins checklist. one figure is the singing raisin holding a microphone. the second figure is the standard figure with orange sunglasses. and the third figure is a happy looking raisin wearing blue tennis shoes. I think there are only 3 figures to the set as that's all I can find.
The closest figures I could find on the checklist are the plush figures that have bendable arms and legs.
This is awesome. I just found a bunch of California Raisins figures that aren't listed here on the checklist. It's a set of four figures with graduation caps. Now, I know that on the checklist, there are graduation figures, but those figures have big yellow bases with sayings on them. Also, the set of figures I found have the tassels on the caps are on the opposite side of the graduation cap.
I bought them but haven't got them yet. At first, I thought that maybe they were from the line of keychains, but there doesn't seem to be any spots for the little hook to screw into the figure.
"Calrab 1987 Applause" refers to vintage merchandise, such as action figures, from the 1980s California Raisins franchise, made by the company Applause under the Calrab line and dated 1987. These items include various sizes of bendy PVC figures, button pins, and other collectibles, often featuring the characters from the popular advertising campaign.
Key Aspects: California Raisins: The popular claymation characters that became a cultural phenomenon in the late 1980s. Applause: The toy company that produced many California Raisins collectibles. Calrab: A brand or production line, often associated with the California Raisins, under which Applause produced these items. 1987: The year the specific products were manufactured, marking them as vintage collectibles from the era of the Raisins' popularity. I hope this helps?
