Hasbro toys (2005-present)

In 1985, General Mills spun off its Kenner and Parker toy divisions to form Kenner Parker Toys, Inc. Kenner Parker was acquired by Tonka in 1987. Under Tonka management, Kenner Products was reconstituted as a division. Tonka (including Kenner) was purchased by the toy company Hasbro in mid-1991. Hasbro closed the Cincinnati offices of Kenner in 2000, and Kenner's product lines were merged into Hasbro's.

Generation One

The Littlest Pet Shop toy line had molds that looked cartoon-like compared to the earlier incarnation of the franchise, had realistic colors and could be blended in. They had bobble-heads (except for the fish) and they came with a pink magnet. Some pets were fuzzy. Later ones had a blue magnet. The series of sets were released as Single Packages, Pet Pairs, Portable Pets, 20-packs, and with playsets. The Littlest Pet Shop "numbers" for the Generation 1 were #1-#456.

Generation Two

These pets have symbols in their eyes that meant something, such as a snowflake (chilliest), cookie with a bite (hungriest), raindrop (sportiest), flower (cuddliest), and a wind symbol on some Comic Con-exclusive pets.They also came in more brighter colors.

Generation Three

The most hated generation as most fans have described it as 'creepy looking' and 'demonic'. These pets did not last for a long time. Later, they added the Shimmer and Shine series, Sticker Eyes pet series, pets that came with Blythe, and the Fairies series. The numbers for Generation 3 is #974-2675. The pets now had a different mold and a new eye style. Hasbro reissued the Totally Talented set from G1, and Blythe was also given a makeover. The numbers for Generation 4 are #2684-#3107.

Generation 3.5 (Bobble in style)

Hasbro had lots of calls complaining about the Generation 3 pets. Hasbro made the Bobble-in-style, it included pets from the 2012 TV show and made it look like the pets from 2005-2012.

Generation Four

These pets have molds that more closely resemble the style of the TV show. The pets were now given names. Hasbro released Pets Pawsabilities during this time, and in 2016, the Pets in the City which more closely resembles the pets released in G2.

Generation Five

The LPS pets were released in revamped styles in 2017, The pets have new molds similar to the G2 pets and like The G2 pets, have rounded eyes. They are currently selling generation 5 in stores. Some of the toys released by Hasbro under this line include black and white pets and Rainbow pets, and they also brought back the Teensies LPS.

Many sellers across the globe sell fake versions of the toys. They are said to be made from cheap rubber and have hollow, squishy heads. The most noticeable feature is the painting on them.

Fake Littlest Pet Shop toys have made a big impact on the collectors and many have become very cautious about what they are buying.
