While Tinker Bell always had a following, as one of the more popular Peter Pan characters; the Disney Fairies films were able to reintroduce a younger Tinker Bell to a new and younger audience along with bringing new storylines and adventures to have for the older audiences. Fans quickly fell in love with the new characters, especially Tinker Bell's best friends: Rosetta, Fawn, Silvermist, and Iridessa. Vidia, Tinker Bell's frenemy, was also well liked and became quite popular with the fans of the series.
Some fans have created We The Pixies, a work-in-progress rewrite of the Pixie Hollow online game that originally operated between 2008 and 2013.

- Is the fairy queen a war criminal? Surprisingly, kind of., Archived version by iusedtobeafangirl ("TL;DR; The fairy queen from the Tinker Bell franchise has been an intense source of debate for years, which is in part because she’s technically a war criminal. I promise this makes a little more sense in context, but I don't even know how to begin explaining it. I was going to start by summarizing the original Disney Fairies trilogy, but even that is kind of difficult because these books are just so goddamn weird, war crimes notwithstanding. I guess it’s best to just start at the beginning.") (2020)
