Without going into authenticity of the whole thing which needs additional investigation as said, there is another thing - it would be Director's Cut rather than Toonstruck 2 even if it was all true. It would be Toonstruck made compatible for today's computers with included scenes that were originally cut.

Now, those scenes were indeed planned to be included with Toonstruck sequel but they were never compiled into an actual game as far as i know. So, it's not just like Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans which was 99% finished product but wasn't published - it's rather the material that never got into the game, and not the game itself.

To quote the quote of Mr. Arem from the petition text:

"I would like to re-release an updated version of Toonstruck to include the 2nd half of the game"

You can't just include the material - unless, there is an already finished product which needs to be integrated. But then, it would be more convenient to say "sequel", rather than "an updated version".

Another thing - Toonstruck ending was rushed, due to cut of the material in the time of the publishing. So, the cut material wasn't just the suffice material, it was actually something that shaped Toonstruck, so to include the material now would need an additional work.

Not that if would hurt and if it was only the release of the original game made to run on modern computers.
