Radio station mascots in the Laotianlands

From the 1970's to 1990's, there was a trend in the Laotianlands where lots of radio stations would use mascots to promote themselves, mainly using sentient objects as mascots.

Lighty and Lightanna the Lightning Bolts
Hoxland-based Lightning Radio began the trend of radio station mascots in the Laotianlands by introducing Lighty - a sentient lightning bolt with red gloves. He was used on many adverts for the station from 1976 to 1989, he also had a girlfriend named Lightanna, who has a similar appearance to Lighty but with magenta gloves and a magenta bow, she only appeared on adverts for the station promoting holidays or special events. Lighty and Lightanna both had their own animated TV show named Lighty and Lightanna's Electric Adventures, which ran from 1985 to 1987 on LTNG-TV.

Brenda the Bow
Bow Radio in Welton introduced Brenda the Bow in 1982, Brenda was a sentient hairbow, being the inspiration for the design of Bow in the Inanimate Insanity franchise. Brenda was retired in 1989 as the station was about to split it's frequencies.

Quaver the Music Note
Quaver of Rocky 96 was inspired by WABC's music notes - he was a grey music note with yellow gloves and boots. He was used from 1980 to 1983.

Penelope the Pendulum Clock
Penelope was a sentient Pendulum Clock with yellow gloves and boots, used by Radio Pendulum from 1979 to 1986. Using a clock as their mascot meant that one of their competitors, Clock Radio, had to go with no promotional mascot.

Wild Country Bracelet
Bracelety FM used a mascot named the "Wild Country Bracelet" - a cyan-coloured silicone bracelet with shades and the text "WILD COUNTRY" on her. Used from 1991 to 1997.

The Love Hert
The Love Hert was used by Love AM and Love FM from 1991 to 1997, being a sentient heart with blue gloves.

Mrs. Flower
Mrs. Flower was a particularly forgotten radio mascot - a humanoid flower with magenta petals and a dress made from leaves, she was only used on one advert for Flower 104 in 1988.

Clever Clover
Clever Clover was another forgotten radio mascot, since she was used for the retail radio station Clover Radio for one month in 1988. Clever Clover was a green clover with a magenta hairbow and skirt.

International recognition
Pirate radio station Pillow Radio in Shardlow, England used a sentient pillow to promote themselves, one of the people involved in the station was a Laotianlandian radio enthusiast who saw stations like Lightning Radio and Bow Radio get promoted on print and on TV.
