This is the latest in a series (of indefinite length and regularity) of blog posts memorializing cancelled toys. Our subject today is Just Play's third series of Madballs<\/i> blind bags<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The official Madballs website<\/a> has, for more than a year, promised a third series of the blindbagged mini-Madballs \"coming in 2018.\"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It seems pretty clear by now that that's not going to be happening, so let's take a look at what we're not getting.<\/p>\n

While the series has not been officially cancelled, and Just Play keeps<\/a> teasing<\/a> their existence, the odds they will eventually be released appear to be very slim. Though we'd love to be proved wrong.<\/p>\n

There's just something about this property that makes it impossible for anyone<\/a> to break the \"two series\" mark.<\/p>\n
