P3D Discontinued Talking V-M

Fisher-Price has adandoned the talking viewer developed by TYCO.  All
"talking" products have been discontinued. 

The first one which appeared was "Lost World" in 1997 and it was a
departure from the "standard" reel format.  An interchangeable cartridge
was used. Other sets followed: "Winnie the Pooh,"  "Wubbulous World of Dr.
Seus"  "Batman" and many others.  Cartridges were also sold individually.
All are now discontinued.

Today, the entire talking line is history. So, if you're a collector and
want to get some before they are all gone, act quickly. We will have a
close-out sale available shortly. And they'll probably be available through
the regular close-out channels.

Last year at Toy Fair '98 a new Barbie Talking Viewer was unveiled, but
never saw production.  A Talking CAT viewers and Hot Wheels were also
planned, but again never produced. 

If you're curious to see what V-M had in mind back in '98 for these
viewers- visit
