Apologies in advance if this has been discussed. I searched and didn't find any threads or posts about it.
On the home page, it states in an update on September 29, 2016 that teddyruxpinonline.com was going offline Winter 2016 and it seems like a farewell. What is going on? Is the site and forum going away? Here I was thinking things were about to start picking up around here, with the new Teddy coming next year, and the nice new layout and all.
I hope that isn't the case!

I noticed this too..
I wonder if that is still happening..
Josh Isaacson said he will be creating another Teddy related website, and there is even a new group on FaceBook for forum members.
If the website does get taken down, the forum will probably remain. It is hosted on Proboards, it will not disappear with the main website.

I hope you are right. The last line in the news update is what really got my attention.
"Stay 'tuned for a list of other places where you can share your memories of the Classic Teddy Ruxpin toy and storyline."

Thank you for your concern. I am glad you enjoy TRO and don't want it to go away. Unfortunately there are things happening out of my control. Rather than fight, and have what has always been a joy tarnished with a negative memory, I am going to create something new - in fact we envision an entire new kind of fan community. What it will be called, and exactly what it will entail, is still up in the air. Rest assured the forums are going nowhere and there will be some sort of website that will still lead people to them  |

Thanks for letting us know, Josh. Sorry to hear the site you built and have maintained all these years will have to shut down. I am glad the forum will remain and look forward to the new site you have planned, though.
