Ended Toy lines? + looking for newly released toy lines!

[Carrehz]

To be honest, I'm not sure what the idea behind this list actually is? Most toy lines fall into obscurity when they're no longer being made (of course there are exceptions), cause... well there's only so much you can say about a toy line that ended years ago, you know? Doesn't necessarily mean they've been *forgotten*. Like... I still love Pinkie Cooper and all, but I don't post about it because what more is there to say that wasn't said at the time, I guess.

Ah, my idea behind this list is to help for future identifying purposes, like ghost of the doll and just keep track of toylines so a toy history thing can be established.

I looked at the current list and I'm sorry but just because a line has ended does not mean it became "forgotten". Ever After High still has a fandom, Cupcake dolls are still going on in several countries... I just don't get some of the reasoning here.

Hmm, I can see your point, although do you know of a better fitting word? Unpopular? Distant?

Ended or gone.
In case of Cupcake dolls I wouldn't even consider them unpopular. They are just not a must-have or it-toy anymore because the gimmick is no longer new.
They are no longer talked about, I guess.

But EAH collectors are still active and trying to complete, making customs and so on.

Ah, I see your point. I'll take on your advice and change it accordingly!

Mimi and the Goo Goos (1994 - 1996)

I don't know if these have been mentioned yet, but TOMY Micropets! I used to have several of these when I was younger, but now I only have two kitties who no longer work, sadly ;u;

[BubbleTea]

Breyer Wind Dancers. They're not completely gone yet but the brushables have all been discontinued and the only Wind Dancers product left is the blind bags. It's going to be odd not seeing them in the collector's catalog anymore. They've been around since 2005  .

EDIT: Apparently according to Identify Your Breyer the blind bags have been retired since 2018 but they're still up for purchase on Breyer's website. I'm guessing those are going to disappear soon as well.

Was Bella Sara ever mentioned? So strange. It just disappeared.

Added Tomy Micropets, Sara Bella and Breyer Wind Dancers

[Ponyfan]

Bella Sara is a good one for the list. They had trading cards, puzzles model horses, a website game and then one day all the Bella Sara stuff disappeared.
