The article does not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline. Prod'ed and deleted in 2008, the article was recreated by a now-indefinitely-blocked editor in 2009 and it has served as a magnet for this user's sockpuppetry efforts since then. It has been tagged as needing reliable sources on and off since 2009 and the only RSes that have emerged are first-party sources. Thibbs (talk) 11:28, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. A search brought up nothing usable. I found brief mentions here and there as a toy offered by Hasbro, but nothing that would be seen as in-depth. The majority of mentions were offhand, one sentence bits in Christmas lists, mostly of the "Hasbro has toys like this, this, and this for your tots" variety. I suppose that we could probably redirect it to List_of_Hasbro_toys#T, but I'd somewhat discourage that since Habro puts out a lot of toys and this list should be reserved for those toys that are notable enough to warrant an article on Wikipedia. That it has a history of sockpuppetry only puts a cherry on top of things. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 05:19, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
