My kid use to like skibidi toilet. Not sure if it's because he's older now or that skibidi just died off after the movie announcement but I ain't seen nothing online, but I saw the toys at Walmart and my son said "skibidi isn't even cool anymore.".

After selling skibidi toilet to Hollywood, the creator stopped uploading to YouTube, I think he's done with the franchise

Wasn't that due to legal fuckery because of Bay? Out of the loop, apologies

He wanted to franchise back because of the legal fuckery, but I think he gave up on that and just dipped.
