Shouldn't this be a trivia trope, since it's related to The Merch?

So, I'm of two minds. Either you consider the work to be "the cartoon and the toyline collectively" in which case this isn't trivia since it's about two facets of a single work, or you consider the toyline and the cartoon to be separate works in which case both this and Toyless Toyline Character should be trivia since they're both things that can only be determined in relation to an outside work.

Given we would almost never have a separate page for a work and its toyline and would put tropes exclusive to the toyline in the work's page, I'm leaning towards the former.

Way late to this, but since I might make a TRS on this trope about this very problem...

^^ Just because that isn't trivia doesn't mean it couldn't be either.

^ Seeing the work as "the cartoon and the toyline collectively" isn't really a thing on this site because The Merch is trivia, as are most Merch-related trivia that were once tropes. And I think toyline tropes would go under Franchise/?
