I think they came in, then out, then in as I say. Blue ones probably did first come out in 1989 but then they returned about five years ago as I remember the "Blue Is Back" campaign.
Curiously I didn't know anything about that campaign.
But I do remember clearly walking around Tesco in Worcester when I must have been 9 or 10 or so - picking up a tube and really looking forwards to trying them :)
There was a definite campaign up here, as I remember being completely underwhelmed by it. Sadly though, this was contrary to when they first came out, when, like you, I was very excited about it.
