    My own theory is that the prototype is actually made using an adult. That's why it would be far more intelligent than the other toys that were brought to life. If the others were made with children, they would actually be less aggressive and more obedient and more willing to cooperate with the staff there.

      The prototype is actually pressumed to be made using Eliot Ludwig remains as he did die before the prototype was made making him the most suitable candidate as well as he is the person who basically started the whole project. And also you can explain his hostility by taking into the fact that Eliot either didn't want to be turned into a toy or disagreed with the method in where they used orphans as test subjects. Which also explains why huggy is hostile to us as huggy is obedient to his master which is Eliot Ludwig meaning that he still has control over him as the protype.

    You know I was rewatching the gameplay, and when our character dies, it tells us to “Get up”, it says “You can take it”, “Don’t die just yet”, and a lot of others things that signal to me that we are recounting what we’ve said to others, the children. It sounds like we’re talking to the children while torturing them, antagonizing them. This is just my small theory/thought while watching the gameplay.

    Has anyone pointed out the flower imagery of this game? I've never played, but Poppy flowers are a theme, and many of the enemies in the game relate to nature (the caterpillar-esque creature, Mommy Longlegs, etc) and also Makayla's last name is Hyssop, which is another type of flower. Kinda sounds like cultivation and kinder*garden*... cultivation.

    Us being head of production makes even more sense when you realize that we never make noise in the story (yet). Obviously this could be from a protag perspective of "wanting to keep the game immersive" or something. But when you think about it, as a main person in the company, you would know easier ways to deal with these monsters, I think our character knew they'd encounter monsters, so they try to stay quite as to not draw any attention to themselves.

    I theorized that too. That perhaps the real victims are the toys trying to kill us. Like the other games, they experiment on these orphan children, knowing they didn’t have families to go back to. Those who value other things than the lives of children like Laith Pierre relentless turning them into creatures they play with. They say that when something happens to a child, their soul becomes corrupted by rage and sadness and that’s what happened to these kids - turned monsters. Their furious, sad, but above all ..have absolute hatred for those who did this to them. That the character were playing as- was involved in such horrifying experiments. Maybe a peculiar child got turned into Huggy Wuggy, which is why he attacked us. It would be awesome if it was confirmed. Like Huggy wouldn’t attack anyone else but you because you were involved and their hatred is to see you dead.

    I’m surprised the talking cutouts weren’t mentioned. They seem to be partly sentient as well. They say ominous things to the player (except Kissy and Daisy I believe) when you keep pressing their buttons.
    Not only that but you can “feed” Candy Cat until they’re full but if you keep going you can basically hurt or kill or upset (I’m not sure tbh) Candy Cat since they ask you to stop. Boogie Bot’s cutout also says “The button hurts me.” And also says “Am I a real boy?”. Gives me suspicion that some of these cutouts might also be partly alive but also programmed to say lines.

      Scientifically, spiders are actually very affectionate mothers in nature. They are protective, love to cuddle their babies and sometimes will be reluctant at letting their children go similar to a human moms going through empty nest syndrome
      So I think Mommy Long Legs acting predatorial against the protagonist makes a lot of sense considering she probably really saw the children in the factory as her own children in a way, which is probably why she took it very personally when the children "left her" and so she's focusing all her sadness and anger against the protagonist due to knowing the protagonist most likely had something to do with it.
      Having the Beldam from the Coraline movie portrayed as a spider woman was definitely no coincidence since it shows how possessive mother spiders can be

    There's one problem with our character being the head of production:
    Huggy Wuggy was completely obedient to the staff and wouldn't harm someone as important as the head of production. Plus, our character seems to be confused about most of the stuff inside the factory. I think Mommy Long Legs suspects all employees are guilty, just because they worked there. She's blaming us when we're confused about most of it. We returned to try and save all the missing employees because we want to. I think we're playing as Marcus, the character jackscepticeye played. I think he wanted to find someone he cared about, but they became Kissy Missy, which is why she helps us.

  • @Nuclearoverride0412

    My take on this is: Poppy doesn’t seem to recognize us, she speaks as if we’re new. Lines like; “You freed me…” “you’re perfect, too perfect to lose.” Etc… As well as being delighted we know how to solve the electricity puzzle in the beginning of Chapter 2. If we were the head of production, we would’ve known about her. Maybe she was in a stasis? Opening her case is what springs her to life, or so it seems. Yet in the letter from the very beginning, it tells us to “FIND THE FLOWER” in bold and underlined. Yes, this may just be for the player. The notes too. Her acting like she isn’t familiar with us while the others are is strange… She hates the experiments, even saying that there were so many wrongs that needed to be righted. That alone makes me believe that we may not be the head of something, so… Why is she so unfamiliar? Why is Mommy the only one who knows that we worked here?
    My guess? We didn’t pull kids apart and make them into toys. Oh no. We adopted certain kids to send away via Stella’s orders. Mommy says we deserve “to die alone.” She knows us because we would “adopt” kids, she recognizes us because we gave the orphans a hope of having a family. We sent them to die and spend eternity in a toy.
    The prototype may be Jamie B Honey, continuing the experiments on themselves.
    Now, I’m no theroist, not by a long shot. But this makes more sense to me.
    Edit: I absolutely LOVE the questions and other theroies coming from you all! I try to respond and spark more ideas best I can, so by all means. Leave a reply on your thoughts! :)

    Theory: Stella Greybur is Kissy Missy.
    Stella seemed very child-like and friendly to all, both in the VHS tape from Chaper 1 and from the recordings in the game station. Kissy Missy is very friendly and has no desire to attack us, the player. Kissy Missy also seems very child-like and curious. If this theory is true, maybe the reason Kissy Missy/Stella DIDN'T attack us is because she recognized us as her old boss(and maybe as an old friend?)
    Edit: Stella would probably be the first to speak out when she found out how the kids were being treated, maybe the company manipulated her in some way, and when she found out too much they had to to get rid of her but didn't want any potential to go to waste so they turned her into a toy, and Stella/Kissy's kind nature carried over into her toy form?

      True but maybe the children are used for the smaller toys the ones they sell to the masses(as blood is seen leaking out and splatterd al around and in them), as those are small but fairly large as far as toys go, so it's possible that some adult specimens we're acquired for the larger 'Toys' such as mommy long legs.

      I wonder perhaps if it’s not the larger toys that are made of orphans but perhaps the smaller sold toys (or maybe some kind of medium size ones?) that have kids in them? Perhaps the larger toys like huggy are still made from adults of some kind (employees or otherwise) and those larger toys also are there to control the ones that are smaller/made of children? Basically you use the “expendable” orphans on getting the basics of toy-consciousness combination correct and then you use adults to make a final version that is better suited to be in charge of a larger body and control the other toy creations that have younger undeveloped minds in them.

Since they play a huge part in the living toys creation along with all the other side characters uses such as the scientists. As poppy flowers can symbol sleep, peace and also death. Which fit the games themes perfectly. Though, I will warn, poppy flowers can mean much other things depending on which culture we’re talking about.

    Theory: It's possible the messages after death are memories of different higher-ups talking to us, the player. Considering the theory that we are the head of production, the white messages all sound encouraging, but if spoken correctly, they could come from Elliot Ludwig, the leader of the factory. His bossy tone and backstory seemingly line up with all previous messages that end in a fade to white. Following that line of thought, the messages fading to red could be Eddie or the Head of Research. All messages that end in red line up with the research side of things so it would make sense.

    Is it possible that Stella could’ve turned into Kissy Missy, the one that helped us during chapter 2? It makes sense to me because if Kissy Missy was angry about being turned into a toy, she probably would’ve acted hostile toward the protagonist. And since Stella said that she’d be happy to bring joy to kids and everything, it would make sense that she would be happy being stuck inside of a toy. So the fact that Kissy Missy wasn’t hostile toward the protagonist and that Stella inferred that she wouldn’t mind being turned into a toy, the theory that Stella’s soul is in Kissy Missy makes sense. Also, when we hear Stella’s voice in the play room, there’s a cutout of Kissy Missy, but that might be something random.

    a random thought, "Jamie B Honey" sounds more like a name for a toy thats supposed to pass as human than an actual human name. what if we were the latest in the many experiments before the factory shut down? What if the factory decided to start making living "toy" workers to run the factory? It would definitely make sense. actual workers would start objecting eventually, maybe even tell the press whats going on. these created workers would be much more obedient and complacent. and WE were the apex of this branch of experimentation and were given a position above the others as a reward. this would also explain the death screens and respawn mechanics, were literally the same as the toys and therefore we are connected to them. and the reason characters like mommy longlegs dont recognise us as being one of them is that we LOOK human. none of the toys do, so they just assume we arent a toy.

    I have a theory that maybe “Jamie B Honey” is the prototype. What if the former worker tried to reveal the factories dark secret to the world, thus betraying the factory. The factories team found out and turned him into a toy. This can explain why the prototype is so intelligent and is rebuilding himself. He knows the build of the toys and knows how to build and tweak things. This can also explain why he’s so aggressive towards the workers because they made him like this and hates what they have done to the children/other workers. But since he’s been made into a toy he still cant control he’s aggression. This can also explain why his name is scrambled on the ground as they got rid of him.
    P.S I know the prototype was made before the other toys. What if they hired someone else to replace him and that might have been us the player. Or they didn’t want to hire someone else in case they tried to reveal the dark secret.

    If the player is actually in charge of production and "conditioning" it could possibly explain why kissy missy helps the player without attacking? Maybe her conditioning was successful, maybe she's just more docile than the other experiments, but either way once she sees the player she stops to consider the situation for a moment before flipping the lever in the minecart area.
    Or, she could be helping as a result of either the influence of poppy, which seems unlikely given that poppy was held hostage by MLL, or under the influence of another experiment.... possibly 1006? They seem to be intelligent enough to plan a way to lure the player further into the factory by using the other experiments... for whatever reasons they may have to do so. Idk.

      It's also entirely possible that both were success stories - but what Huggy was told to do was violently guard the factory and Kissy is likely following the orders of someone who's *still there*. In chapter one the voice recording mentions that the player should leave before their "unconventional" security system kicks in.
      Of course, it's possible they both follow the orders of someone still in the building, but I heard this idea somewhere and it fascinated me because it's not their nature; it's their orders.

Maybe Poppy calls you perfect because you are a human experiment that can overcome death and pass as a human.

For example, the note that we get in the mail to go to Playtime Co, has spelling mistakes, and the thing is, I feel like it'd obviously had to have been a child who wrote it to us. I'm guessing Kissy Missy mailed it to us, and she tried to give us a second chance to redeem ourselves. Maybe since she's probably a child, she wants to help us, like she did in Chapter 2. The other toys won't give us a chance, because they don't forgive us, and want to kill us, since we ruined their lives and made them turn into toys.
