Whatever Happened to 2010's Best Selling Toy? (Shopkins)

[@M.-mp5nx]

Oh I miss shopkins I wondered why the disappeared 😕

[@Cinnamarollswiftes]

Thanks for the information about why they were discontinued, i used to love shopkins btw I still have them! This is very sad that they stopped making them

[@cartoonist_key]

Yeah, it's disappointing that they've disappeared. Hopefully they'll make a comeback some day soon though.

Shopkins got shoplifted

[@cartoonist_key]

They would sometimes, though the worst shoplifting happened after the pandemic, so technically it never affected them too much.

Fuuuck I was literally cleaning out my room and found TUBS of shopkins. That brought me back so many years, lol. I was even in one of the magazines with my collection 😭

[@cartoonist_key]

Oh, wow! Mighty impressive! You'd definitely want to hold onto a collection like that, some day the market for them will skyrocket once the nostalgia for them hits.

[@e_eMakesMANYOcs]

Moose made a horrific mistake trying to size up against those miniature product toys... They were already those, but with MORE personality and originality. They just threw that all away 😭😭

[@cartoonist_key]

I fully agree, they should have just stuck to being Shopkins and not copying what others were doing. Though, they may have been able to get away with it if it wasn't 2020...

[@Waterofintuition222]

For a first video on your channel, this isn't quite bad, ngl i thought you had more subs. Good luck with it! Always wondered what happened to shopkins

[@cartoonist_key]

Hey, thanks for the kinds words! I'm happy to hear that you've enjoyed it! 👍

[@AlguienMultifandom]

Finally someone who thinks the same of Shoppets like me! I really miss Shopkins but that's my only reason to have created my fanmade season 18

[@cartoonist_key]

lol, happy to hear that! Maybe one day we'll get an official Season 18... Though, I doubt it would be called 18, they'd probably just start back at one and work their way back up from there if there was a reboot. 👍

[@AlguienMultifandom]

@@cartoonist_key yeah probably but hey we can always hope! I might just continue My fan project on the meantime

[@cartoonist_key]

Yes, keep with it! I wouldn't mind seeing it myself, haha 😊

[@AlguienMultifandom]

@@cartoonist_key Well by now it's the Shopkins sub Reddit by any post with the title fanmade season 18!

[@cartoonist_key]

Awesome, thanks!

[@thyluvdeli]

I used to make my dad buy me 2 packs of Shopkins everyday after preschool..

[@cartoonist_key]

Love to hear that! Unfortunately, I had to buy them myself back in the day, lol

[@bibbleslayss]

these ones and the first three seasons were my favorites 4:56 😭

[@cartoonist_key]

Yeah, they were definitely the highlights of the Shopkins series.

[@jmaeof2000]

We more videos like these talking about Shopkins lore

[@cartoonist_key]

Thanks! Definitely more similar videos in the near future, might not be Shopkins in specific, but I definitely intend to do some of the spin-offs at some point.

[@justtkiwi]

I LOVED THEM IDC IF THEY WERE FOR GIRLS I STILL LOVED THEM.

[@cartoonist_key]

Love to hear that! They were definitely made to be an everyone toy, but the fact that they'd almost always be only found in the girls aisle didn't help that logic, lol Never stopped us though. 👍

[@justtkiwi]

yess i still have around 15 when i was around 10 my moms preschool was in need of toys so i gave her my big box with well over 1000+ shopkins including my buttercup one which is worth over 1000 bucks now 😭 some 6 year old probably has it and its just sitting in their room or something

[@cartoonist_key]

You actually had one?! Wowza, I've yet to actually run into any limited editions myself, maybe one day I'll have to buy myself one or something.

[@justtkiwi]

yeah i got it in a 12 pack on my 8th birthday it was shocking but i regret not selling it its worth so much now i would buy them again but im not going on ebay and buying some 5 pack for 20 bucks 😭

[@cartoonist_key]

I personally recommend thrift stores, I'll often pop into one every now and then, and wind up walking out with a bag of Shopkins, I find they're quite easy to find. Easier to find then Lego even, in most cases.
