This company does not appear to meet WP:ORGCRIT as it was not ' the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject.' The company seems to have lasted a few years and attracted attention mostly on collector and fan sites. The NYT reference in the article is the most solid sourcing; most of the other coverage does not look satisfactory in order to meet our notability criteria. Mccapra (talk) 11:39, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: When commenting be pithy. Be concise. Cite policies or guidelines if possible. Confine your comments to what is germane to the discussion and be brief. Above all, be brief!

 * Delete - There are a few mentions of the company in reliable sources, such as the NYT article currently used in the article, but they are all very brief. None of them are the substantial coverage needed to demonstrate notability.  And, as the company seems to be now defunct, it seems unlikely that there will be any further in-depth coverage of it at this point.  Rorshacma (talk) 01:01, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
