What Was Moondreamers About?
Moondreamers were a group of sparkly-dressed characters in charge of everything sky and dream related. For example, they had a Dream Machine that produced dreams for sleepers, and were also in charge of creating and maintaining stars, punching comets, and other celestial activities. One thing that set these dolls apart was their outfits. The trims of them glowed in the dark, and so did their hair and combs. Each Moondreamer also came with a necklace for little kids to wear. These are more difficult to find nowadys, but we have added them to the list below just in case you get lucky!
More Moondreamer Vintage Toys
Bitsy and Roary, and Blinky and Ursa
There are two more Moondreamer characters we haven’t mentioned yet – but these are amongst the most collectible vintage toys out there. They are: Bitsy and her companion Roary, and Blinky and her friend Ursa. Both these cute animals and their Moondreamer dolls had glow-in-the-dark hair and equally shinning clothes with trimmings. They also came with shoes and combs, and the animals had glowing features as well. For example, Ursa the bear had a removable saddle. One thing to mention about these figures is that they were very well designed; the characters can easily sit on the animals without falling off. Just like the the five main Moondreamers, Bitsy and Blinky also came with dream crystal necklaces and a stand.
- Blinky and Ursa: A shy and hardworking character that rides a white bear called Ursa.
- Bitsy and Roary: A Moondreamer that owns a courageous and outgoing lion (and, according to Hasbro, a bit of a snob. I kid you not).

There were some other characters within the Moondreamers toy line. These were:
- The Snoozers: These were the Moondreamers’ helpers, a group of friends that soothe little people to sleep. They also sprinkle sleepy stardust into children’s eyes and bump the night with earmuffs. These dolls had glow-in-the-dark eye decorations, fuzzy pajamas, removable earmuffs, hats, sunglasses, and buckets of stardust.
- The Sleep Creeps: The Moondreamers Sleep Creeps were the helpers of Evil Scowlene. These creatures woke children up with their flashlights and filled the night with loud creaky noises. These mischievous sleep creeps had fuzzy bodies, bright decorations, removable shoes, megaphones, and flashlights.
- Evil Scowlene: This mean dream queen has never slept! She is constantly trying to steal the materials that make good dreams and make people cranky. She also wakes people up at night with her bad dream crystals and loud noises. The figure came with a Yawny for her hair, a stand, and a necklace with a bad dream crystal.

Moondreamers FAQ
Are There Any Moondreamers Movies or TV Series?
Unfortunately, no. Moondreamers was only a toy line. We could have seen a show, as I’m sure there was one in the making, but the dolls didn’t do as well as Hasbro expected so they were short-lived.
