Delete No evidence of notability. The article was proposed for deletion, but the PROD was contested by the author of the article. The PROD reason was "Non-notable toy, No 3rd party coverage", and a PROD2 also said "Only sources provided are K'nex pages and an e-store carrying the product." That, I think, sums the situation up. The only sources cited are the manufacturer's site and a site selling it, and my web searches have produced more of the same, but no independent coverage.

DELETE: Discovered during NPP. Original Prodder. I'd compare this to Rubic's Cube or something similar when trying to get a feel for Notability requirements. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hasteur (talk • contribs) 11:34, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as author of prod-2. Article still doesn't have good independent reliable sources to verify the claims made in the article or demonstrate notability. RJaguar3 | u | t 13:45, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for now - there is no evidence this is a notable toy. If it sells big this holiday season, or gets wide publicity, then it can be re-created after December 25, 2010. Bearian (talk) 16:38, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. It is certainly possible for an individual toy to have notability that makes it appropriate to have a separate article. However, I was not able to find independent sources writing about this particular toy; it may someday come to meet Wikipedia's notability criteria, but it doesn't meet them now. -00:12, 30 September 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by FisherQueen (talk • contribs)
Delete Not notable itself. I know K'nex itself is a notable product but the design itself doesn't have any reliable sources. Minima c (talk) 13:21, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
