One week later a similar item by Hasbro appeared in the stores. They were small babies in small houses, an attempt to do "Littlest Pet Shop" as babies. Although they were quite different from Tiny Tots they filled the same marketing position, and thus Mattel sent them back again.

Tiny Tots were optioned by several companies in the years that followed. Galoob was one, Fisher Price was another. In fact, it was these tiny figures that led Peter Pook of Fisher Price to request a line of dolls based on their styling. Those dolls called "Best Friends" directly led to "Mop Tops" then "Color Me Cuties", and "Friendz n’ Family", and ultimately the "Play Along Club".
