Are there any items gone forever?

There's a few building from previous black friday events that still haven't return yet.

I can't really speak of "forever" but there are a handful of characters and some event-specific buildings that have never come back in the 6-7 years I've been playing. Some of them I'm pretty disappointed about .

I think the only things that might be "gone forever" are episode tie-ins. Things that are relevant to a moment in actual time.

Everything else is just things that haven't been rereleased yet. Play at least 10 more years and you might see everything again.

I've always used the "Select" and then "Sell" features to determine the name of an item in my Springfield. I hope that is what you meant by "reveals the name".

So far the only Black Friday items that have returned in Mystery Boxes are The Lard Lad Donut Factory and the Costmo.
The items that still need to make a return are Monstromart, Shopping Cart Pile Up, VHS Village, Babies B This, Homerland bundle, The Boob Tubery, Circuit Circus, Catfish Lake, Big & Tall Men's Shop, Ian's Car with Ian, Steamed Hams and Jackpot Realty.

With the two buildings that generate donuts rereleased the other 12 items can't be far behind for people who missed out on them.
They can't just have these once and never use them again.

Actually. I was referring to all the other things I don't have, things I see on other people's towns that I've never seen. Many of them have a sign or something saying what it is, but many don't. For example...


What is this? Or perhaps


This looks kinda like a slum tenant building but I have no clue. And I want it! ?

The red building was a secondary building from the Monsarno event. The slum tenant bldg was the primary stage for the first SuperHero event. These things may never return unless the event is somehow reprised, or a sequel.

@ShammysDad - the second one is Orphan Alley from Superheroes 2, 2016
Thought I'd got that from somewhere in my 2 year old second town but I might be mistaken 'cause I tried to find it and failed - oh well . . .

Aww crap. That's a shame. So when they're from an event, they don't eventually get put in the yearbook?

@ShammysDad - the Yearbook came out about 3 years or more ago and hasn't changed in all that time. Some stuff turns up as returning items in store or in Mystery boxes during events and there's usually a whole heap of older stuff for Black Friday so you might find you get them one day . . .
