Childhood just called — and she’s screaming!!! The Bubblegum Club (aka the Bang on the Door universe of Groovy Chick, Hunny Bunny, Cool Dude and more) has officially teased a comeback and I am not okay… in the best possible way. ✨

I’ve already signed up for updates because if there’s even a whiff of new stationery, pyjamas, mugs, or those iconic chunky notebooks… it’s 2004 again and my inner Groovy Chick girlie is thriving. 💅💝

What’s happening?

  • Official teaser says: “We’re back!”
  • Name-drops include: Groovy Chick, Hunny Bunny, Cool Dude (and “loads of new friends!”).
  • Hot-pink visuals + classic curly typeface = the exact vibe our pencil cases deserve.

Memory Lane: Why this hits so hard

For so many of us, Bang on the Door wasn’t just a print — it was a whole personality era. Think: sleepover duvets, diary locks that never worked, glitter gel pens, and a school bag that announced who you were the second you walked into form room. It was bright, bold, and a little bit cheeky — basically the Y2K confidence boost we learned to carry into our 20s and 30s.

My Groovy Comeback Wishlist

  1. Hardback notebooks with thick, scribble-proof pages.
  2. Matching PJ sets (hot pink, obviously).
  3. Mugs + travel cups for Pepsi Max runs.
  4. Tote bags with the classic character panels.
  5. Wall prints/stickers for a cosy, colourful flat life.
