fine lets say only possibly destroyed media the tapes of tilikum the killer whale killing a man were ordered to be destroyed but they could still exist
..Sorry, I still don't really follow what you mean. Are you asking us to add a category for media where no known copies still exist (i.e. truly lost)? This has been brought up before, but since implementing it for all the articles already here would be a massive undertaking, we haven't added it yet: forums.lostmediawiki.com/post/4217/thread Hopefully it will happen eventually.
can it be like any merchandise, like plushes, figurines, and keychains, etc. just asking
None of this is considered to be "media", in the sense that it can't be reproduced and distributed digitally.
For example: you found your car's keys, cool, and you take pictures of them and post them online. Would the action of sharing a picture make it so everybody who sees it has access to the keys and can use them? Obviously not. Same with figurines: the fact that you said "hey, I just found this lost figurine!!1" doesn't allow everybody else to play with it, they can at most see how it looks like and that's it.
When did the walking apes decide that nuclear war Was the only solution for them keeping the score? Just wake up Can’t you wake up?

What? You can make a model of the item, simulate it, etc.

That's a lot more work than people can/are willing to go though. Plus, if we already have the information about what the figurine is and does, couldn't we just recreate it and skip the finding part altogether?

No, that's even harder. Many items lost required mass-production to be made or a very skilled sewing worker.
