Ad for the Rayman 3 PC Demo Discs [FOUND]
In May 24, 2009, a video titled: "Rayman Tribute 3: Stand Up (For the Champions)" was uploaded to YouTube by user Sabertooth1000000000, which contained a very short clip around 1:05 of Rayman coming out of a Menew banner, it was mentioned in the comments that it was from an advert for the Rayman 3 PC Demo Discs and that another video of the ad used to be on YouTube, but that it disappeared at some point. In April 26, 2021, user ratchazeinferno13 made a post in the Lost Media Wiki forums about the ad, stating that: "It was at least 5 seconds long and it featured Rayman jumping of a blue banner and then he spins around and transforms into the Demo Discs"; according to this user the first upload of the video was between 2006-2007.[1] In November 11, 2022, YouTube user Miss-Cerasus uploaded an extended version of the clip (only by a few seconds) with no audio, which showed the part where Rayman transforms into a disc; according to the description of the video, the clip was from RaymanZone.[2] Both the 14 seconds version of the ad with sound and the 3 seconds version with no sound, can also be found in the Internet Archive (uploaded by Foulowe59 on April 8, 2021).
Rabbids Go Home Mini Series Initial Episode 4 and others [FOUND]
In 2009, a mini series to promote Rabbids Go Home was released on the official Ubisoft and Rabbids YouTube channels. According to the Rabbids channel, the original episode 4 was cancelled, so the episode that was originally uploaded as #5 was later labeled as #4 [3]. In July 2018, the YouTube channel InflationVideoTV2019 uploaded a video featuring the Verminette which seems to be the missing episode.[4] However there is also a video from the rabbidslocos YouTube channel that was labeled as episode 4 of the mini series (which features a human and a rabbid),[5], as well as a video which user IndianaViola describes as following:
I can vividly remember parts of the #4 video in question, but it was played after completing a mini-game on the official Rabbids go Home website in 2009. However, the episodes focuses barely on the supposed 'character'. The character in particular being the sanibot, or whatever the cleaning bots are called. In the episode, a Rabbid urinates in the starroom. Prompting the cleaning bot to barge into the room and mops the room's floor. The Rabbid does so again, and the cleaning bot re-enters the room. And, if I recall this part; the Rabbid then rides the cleaning bot like a mechanical bull. I don't remember how the ending went though. It's probably for the best why it's not posted outside of the official Rabbids Go Home. And would be considered lost media.—Youtube comment, Rabbids Go Home - Mini Series episode 4 - Meet The Dog [INT]
On January 24th, 2025, the Vimeo account AKAMA released the full videos of episodes 2 to 7, including the one featuring the Verminette, which is labeled as "Episode 6" within the video, but was published in the platform as "Episode 7".[6]

Lost merchandise
RRR Cheese Heads ruler [FOUND]
In December 2012, RPC user HappyHaunter mentioned that someone from Montreal was selling a Rayman Raving Rabbids ruler from a Cheese Heads promotion at eBay (possibly between 2009 and 2010).[8] The ruler had a moving picture of Rayman shooting a plunger at a Rabbid. In November 2021, the Cheese Heads ruler was added to the article of Rayman merchandising by Davidsosa, however no image of the ruler was available until YouTube user FrameRater uploaded a video in December 2022 about Rayman 4's Prototype, in which he included footage of the ruler at the end of the video.[9]
