Lite-Brite

Lite-Brite is a toy, created by Hasbro in 1967 that allows the user to create glowing designs. It is a light box with small colored plastic pegs that fit into a matrix of holes and illuminate to create a lit picture. Using the colored pegs the user can create designs from imagination or by following templates. There are eight peg colors: green, blue, red, yellow, orange, pink, purple and colorless clear.

Hasbro offered refills of the pegs for more color options or in case some were lost. Color-by-letter templates were sold with the set so that children could create characters including Mickey Mouse, Scooby-Doo, My Little Pony, and more.
