 * Delete Fails Verifiability. Article is largely unsourced claims. From the 2 sources provided in the article, I can only establish that 1) some mall kiosks sold "bungee balls" in high volume and 2) a particular brand called "Yo-yo water balls" were (strangely) flammable. I did a few quick Google searches for bungee balls and bungee ball toys, yielding only results for dog toys or tarpaulin tie downs. Dfadden (talk) 22:04, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails GNG, simply no sources. Fad toys need really clear and reliable sources to prove they are an encyclopedic topic adn this one fails completely.  // Timothy :: talk  21:39, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge with Bouncy ball as the bungee ball product is probably not notable enough for an article, but there's already a collection of similar products building up under "Bouncy ball", and maybe the safety concerns make it an interesting historical relic. It's not accurate to say there are no sources for it when there's a newspaper article about the product cited in the article. An additional citation about a bungee ball product was deleted by the editor above me and has been restored. --Iritscen (talk) 16:18, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:GNG and WP:SYNTH - not all fads are notable, if they are local and within a certain following. If they are really notable, they can have an article like Pet rock. Not against a redirect. Bearian (talk) 15:08, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
