    In the game itself, it is VERY strongly implied that the other toys were created from the orphan children. If you read the test sheets, you’ll see that each orphan child participating in the game station has been assigned a toy. It’s likely that after they completed the tests to the company’s satisfaction, they were fused with their assigned toy.

    The prototype is giving me a death row inmate vibe. He's smart and resourceful, knows how to escape, and is extremely willing to kill. Is it possible that Elliot used someone who was already meant to die before moving on to testing "less intelligent", more obedient orphans? That would explain why the prototype has an abnormal design. He was never assigned a toy because he isn't a kid.

  • @jaygamer7738

    The death messages “The prototype saved us” and “ isn’t he wonderful?”, gives me the assumption that The prototype perhaps saved the other possessed toys by murdering the humans experiment on them. I believe the toys were at first grateful to the prototype until the prototype started killing the them. I also think the orphanage the company advertised was really to have more test subjects

    I’ve been watching other theorists, and some of them believe that Stella still got her wish to become a toy. Not as Poppy, but as Kissy Missy. Think about it, even though we only saw her once, she didn’t attack us and instead helped us. Plus, with the way she looked back at the Player, she might’ve recognized them as a former employee or at least isn’t feral and still retained some of Stella’s kindness.

      The screams are muffled though, as if in another room. More than likely, Ludwig locked himself in a safe room of sorts and Experiment 1006 was killing everyone else outside and the other employees were trying to get him to open the door to let them in. Only for Experiment 1006 to kill them and break through it himself at the end.

    quick question: the tragic death of Ludwig's family member is from the 1960s, but Poppy was created circa 1950, doesn't this mean that the doll cannot be the family member? Maybe the one who died is the one who created Poppy, and after they died, Elliot started the experiments to figure out how to repeat their success (maybe to bring them back), and thus expanded Playtime co with the results of those experiments. The second toy, Bron, is from 1961, which cuts it close but would match the timeline better.

I believe the Protptype or maybe Huggy crashed the train and attacked Poppy. We don’t know what her plan exactly is, but I don’t think it’s malicious. She wants to put a stop to the evil her existence has lead to the creation of.

    Mommy Long Legs recognized the player character as a staff member and said you deserved to die for your role.
    In chapter 1, we're told the factory has unconventional security measures, but we never actually see any actual security. Huggy Wuggy doesn't initially attack you, and in fact gives you the key to get inside, which means Huggy Wuggy probably recognized you as staff immediately. The only reasons that seem reasonable for why he attacked you later was either 1. Someone sent him after you (maximum obedience), or 2. You entered a part of the factory that you didn't have security clearance for and psycho Huggy Wuggy was the unconventional security measures.
    It seems strange that you would be recognized so quickly and easily when they presumably haven't seen you in over a decade, and that mommy long legs says for your role you deserve to die unless the player character was either a head researcher of some kind or someone high up in the company who kept the experiments going.

      There was a theory that Huggy was starving since he was made to have a digestive system and need to eat, and the toy we made just before he chases us made him go nuts because he wanted to eat it, killing us in his desperation to get it. He is obedient, so he was trained to not attack staff, but was desperate and blindsighted by his hunger.

The poppy flower is deep red, so I imagine the gel was also red, which gives @Killer_snas theory of Huggy Wuggy's blood actually being poppy gel plausible credibility.

      I suspect Poppy has motives and goals of her own, and she plans on using the player to accomplish those goals, whether we want to or not. One way this could end up is with the player having to make a choice toward the end whether or not to save Poppy or allow her to die, and it will mostly hinge on whether or not you agree with what she was trying to do. Now, I don't think that's super likely, but it does feel like the plot might be setting itself up for where such a situation would be plausible at least.
      In desperate circumstances the lines between villains and victims can blur. Everyone has a goal, even if it's just to survive, and they'll do almost anything to achieve it.

    My theory is: When it was announced that Huggy Wuggy was obedient, they were referring to the "security measure" put in place from the beginning of the game in Chapter 1. In first tape the guy said something about tame security measures, but Huggy Wuggy isn't one of the tame measures. That is what they mean when they say he is obedient because he is basically a security measure for trespassers.

Didn’t mommy long legs get dragged under a door? And why didn't mommy put poppy back in her case if she wasn't on her side? Or is the main character the only employee who got the tape and letter? Could they have been the children who scored high in the tests who has grown up, escaped, called back because the prosses has been completed for living toys and poppy never truly was locked in the case but set up as a decoy for those who gets past the Guard wuggy (or G-wuggy for fun) at the entrance and ignores the warnings finds poppy then see is they can get past mommy.

      that would also explain why poppy is hostile to us, the player, if she were, in fact, an orphan that was abducted and experimented on by the employees, which we might be a part of. this therefore means that there was some other starting point, a different inciting incident. maybe the father started doing these experiments after he couldn't save his precious child because he didn't want another accident to occur to other children, but that wouldn't explain why the company wanting more obedient toys like huggy wuggy. at this point I'd say that we don't have enough info yet, but mat can still try his best.

I was worried about her when Mommy snagged her at the beginning of the chapter, and relieved upon freeing her. After seeing the Prototype drag Mommy's remains off, I had a sense of needing to stop it.
    That _is_ why the player is there in the first place, right? Righting the wrongs of what happened in the factory. If Poppy kept the honesty and sweetness from the beginning of the chapter, I think more players would like her. What's more, I think more players would feel greater tension from her monologue getting cut off by the Prototype.

      To be honest, fnaf has a large amount of lore and covered pretty much over *mostly* everything involved in the horror aspects. You know; serial killer, dead kids, familial plot twists, their spirits possessing otherwise inanimate objects, mind-swapping, and said serial killer is also immortal. Kinda covers everything from the supernatural aspects of horror to the gruesome concepts that mentions in both the books and the games. But I don’t think fnaf really did scientific experiments as far as I can remember other than the fazgoo mentioned that supposedly inexperienced teenagers decided to play with as if it was slime (my lighthearted interpretation of that story), so that’s the most original thing they have compared to fnaf. Which coming up with something original, is kinda hard when someone else has done it all first. It probably took a lot for the creator of Poppy Playtime to come up with something original and change a lot of their ideas simply because other creators decided to do it first, which influences their consumers to compare and contrast their brands.

    The two unique things about Poppy is her size and her ability to be replicated. She is the smallest but yet also one of the smartest toys we met on the series so far. Which means Poppy couldn't have possible been made out of employees like the other toys she was made out of something different. Poppy was made from orphans.
    They're small to fit the toys size, they had close relationship with agency implying a long history with them. Plus they can keep the brain intact which would allow for the perfect self talking kids toys decades a head of coding.
    Plus their size could be way shorter and just as smart as a the other giant talking toys.
