ToySite

ToySite was a subsidiary of the larger company Bensussen Deutsch and Associates, Inc. (Let's call them BDA for short) From 1997 until 2003. In a way, it was a spin off. BDA was granted the license to make Nintendo related action figures and toys in 1997. They got their start making bean bag plushes, and by 1998 would produce their first line of action figures of Legend of Zelda’s soon-to-be megahit Ocarina of Time.

In retrospect these figures seem to be more promotional, than collectible, and weren’t produced in high numbers. The toys made included individual figures of Link and Ganondorf, a bendable keychain of Link, and a 3 Pack of Princess Zelda, Link, and Ganondorf. This would be the only action figure series released under the BDA name before switching to ToySite.
