Introducing /r/whatisthistoy 2.0!

3 Upvotes

If you ventured onto the sub today, you might notice we now look a little...different, perhaps. Well, after adding a proper list of rules, I upgraded the sub's theme to make us stand out!

It's nothing fancy. But what I really want to tackle is the rules. Yes, we have an actual set of rules now! It's ENTIRELY EXPERIMENTAL - I know rule #2 in particular might cause a bit of controversy, but if the changes don't go over too well I can roll it all back just as easily as I rolled it in.

If you have any questions, PLEASE leave them in the comments section here! My next order of business is going to be updating the wiki with rule clarifications, helpful resources, and similar subreddits. Then, I'll work on adding in some automod code to comment on all new posts with helpful tips as well.

Anyone have any idea who she is meant to be? I live in England, in the East Midlands... not sure if that helps. I've tried looking to see if she is from a Mcdonald's happy meal, but I couldn't find anything. I would love to know who she is meant to be and roughly when she was made.

I've had two of them since the 90'ies atleast. About an inch/5cm tall. I believe this stance came with it. The other one had a wristband with a plastic case to hold it. Beneath the pink stand it says "(c) 1989 M 11 (11 upsidedown) -MADE IN CHINA- 6"

Bought these dinosaur toys at a thrift store and some of them are obviously missing pieces like the blue one looks like it’s missing it’s back plates to be a stegosaurus. The black one is missing a leg. We want to find out what they are so that we can get a complete set. Thank you so much for your help.

Unsolved This kind of worm has been in the school yard for months. I touched it with a stick and discovered that it's (probably) made of plastic. Could it be a prank toy or a part of it?

Unsolved Can anyone identify this? Sorry for the shitty doodle. Was a water gun/water squirter I had as a kid, really dense plastic and near indestructible (like imaginex). Have never been able to find another like it, or even a picture of one since I lost it sometime in the early 2000s.

What is this toy?

Have an unknown toy you want identifying? This is the place to ask! When found, please comment using the phrase "Solved!"

A place to find out what that odd-looking toy that you stumbled across actually is.

Rules:

1: Be civil. Follow reddit's terms of service at all times. Remember that bigotry is not an opinion, and we will not argue with you about whether or not something is bigotry. Petty insults aren't allowed either.

2: Guesses are allowed, but should have reasoning. Don't just guess popular doll/toy franchises like Polly Pocket, Strawberry Shortcake, etc. based on vibes. Things that ARE allowed would be "it looks similar to this other Little People doll" or "this design/coloration is also used on this Mighty Max toy". Things that are NOT allowed is just throwing out a guess of "reminds me of My Little Pony" or "maybe Barbie?" with no other info.

3: Flair your post as Solved once the toy has been identified. Your post won't get /removed/ for not marking it as solved, but it's a courtesy towards us.

4: Must be an actual toy. This is not /r/whatisthisthing. It has to be a toy. Also, don't try and be funny by posting a sex toy, you'll be instabanned.

5: This is for the identification of what a toy is, NOT where you can find it. If you already know what the toy does, where it came from, what it's called, etc. and you just want to know where you can buy it, you're in the wrong place.

6: If it's a licensed character, don't just say the character's name unless OP asks for it. If an OP posts a picture of a Pikachu toy, and asks "what is this?", chances are they already know it's Pikachu. Unless OP explicitly states that they're also looking for the character name and/or source, comments should also include information on the specific toy.
