The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask

Majora is considered the most controversial of a Zelda game. For various reasons, merchandise for this game were sold in limited quantities. Making it now one the most expensive zelda games to collect for as well. D:
 This list is comprised of everything "collectable" that is Majora's Mask to the best of my knowledge. Most things will be offical, however, because of Japanese Publishing Laws a few Doujin/UnOffical Japanese merchandise maybe listed. Also some Unoffical US releases will be aswell, but no Bootlegs, Fan-Made or Completely unoffical works will be listed here unless they were part of at least some official publication. (In other words, no Etsy, or handmade type things.)
Most Other language releases are not listed as well unless they are exclusive to that region. (In otherwords, I'm not going to list every language the game, strategy guides or the manga has been translated in unless their is something significant about it's release.)

Gengar (Pokemon)


GENGAR:
Like with smeargle, Pokemon toys are made based on the individual popularity of each pokemon. Gengar had the advantage of being part of Gen 1, so he made many toy appearances but also because of this, he made LOTS of unofficial and underground releases that to this day no-one is absolutely sure of the origins of alot of Gengar merchandise. He even made an appearance as a dog chew toy without any pokemon logos on him. During Pokemon's release year and pop culture boom, there was little to no control over what toy companies or any companies that were making pokemon merchandise- not only that, but even official companies were mass producing so much pokemon goods that they even loss track! So ALOT of merchandise of first gen pokemon can be nearly impossible to officialize.
Listed below are merchandise that has been more or less officialized by the official pokemon distribution companies.
The only exception is a company called Play by Play: Play by Play was a Canadian company that manufactured Gen 1 Pokemon plush. They were unsuccessful in stores (for unknown reason!), so they were shipped all over the world as arcade prizes instead. They are official, but not licensed by Nintendo.
Excluded from the list are: Some Keychains, Most Paper goods(stationary, stickers, ect:), Trading cards, Clothing, and Anything I couldn't offcialize.

Smeargle (Pokemon)

SMEARGLE:
With over 500 different types of pokemon, company's manufacture and distribute toys based on character popularity (Mostly it's popularity in Japan). Despite being in several movies and episodes, smeargle unfortunately is one of those pokemon that fall short. Also with pokemon having such a huge following, many many many fake items are made, and hard-core collectors will also commission for additional merchandise.
Listed below are official merchandise. Please note MOST items are from Japan only. {But you can find pokemon stuff easily from any country ;D }
Excluded from the list are: Keychains(except one), Paper goods(stationary, stickers, ect:), Trading cards, and Anything I couldn't offcialize.
