Mob Entertainment and their Minecraft animations may have played a role when coming up with the concept of Boxy's design. Boxy Boo was originally created in 1966, five years after Bron was created. While he was somewhat successful, he wasn't as popular as the other toys, not appearing in the company's main line-up of mascot toys in the 90's. However, Playtime Co. found a new purpose for Boxy Boo. Boxy Boo's box could be seen in the tape introducing the Bigger Bodies Initiative: the factory's infamous experiments with the goal of creating giant workforce to avoid lawsuits and have more efficient work done. The Boxy Boo in Project: Playtime is the first successful Bigger Bodies Initiative monster to have been created. His purpose was to dispose any lower-ended employees aware about the Initiative. He carries two large symbols which, during the Musical Memory minigame, he smashes together while slowly lowering down from the ceiling. If you take too long in the minigame or make too many mistakes, he lowers even faster, flashing his sharp teeth and crashing his symbols more aggressively, until he reaches you and it’s game over. If you succeed, however, it seems that Mommy Long Legs brings an untimely demise to this poor party rabbit. Soft and cuddly texture: Boxy Boo‘s plush fur is soft and huggable, making him the perfect companion for snuggling up with on a cold night or for taking on adventures. The Prototype– also known as Experiment 1006, The Prototype is a mysterious entity mentioned in two VHS Tapes. We don’t know much about him just yet, though we do get a glimpse of his terrifying robotic arm and long, needle-like fingers when he slips his hand under a door to retrieve Mommy Long Legs’ mangled body towards the end of Chapter 2. Through Mommy Long Legs’ cry of ‘he’ll make me a part of him’, the community has come to theorise that The Prototype claims the parts of other experiments to make himself stronger, and that he’s likely the main antagonist of the Poppy Playtime series as a whole. We have some thoughts about this specimen in our Poppy Playtime Chapter 3 theories article

Owen the Oven– a toy oven with a face, rejected due to multiple children receiving third-degree burns while playing with him Boxy has several ways to surprise his prey. He can go into box form and hide amongst the scenery. His spring-arm allows him to grab survivors and pull them close before clawing them to death. On top of it all, his music will become louder and faster the closer he gets to his prey. However, deeper looks indicate that he is highly intelligent and deceptive and likes to use a box disguise to fool people.

Surprise Hare– a teal, egg-shaped object with big ears and a cute face, scrapped likely because it wasn’t all that appealing and didn’t live up to its name. We guess there was no surprise inside? Well, with the type of surprises you find in this factory, that might be for the better Barrel o’ Huggys– a barrel of stretchy, flat versions of Huggy Wuggy that can hook together, similar to the real-life Barrel of Monkeys game. Rejected as it was deemed a choking hazard after children tried to eat from the barrel thinking it was candy

This Monster is a streamlined hunter with both speed and agility on his side. His springy limbs allow him to jump high and far to reach wherever he desires. In the game, Boxy managed to escape confinement and began targeting a group of workers who were wandering the factory, attempting to assemble a toy before loading it on the train they had arrived in and then leaving. Daddy Long Legs– the male counterpart to Mommy Long Legs, and the father of the Long Legs family set. Playtime Co. likely created him around 1992 in response to the success of Mommy Long LegsHuggy Wuggy is a tall and slender creature, with long floppy limbs and bright blue fur. As a toy and mascot, he’s a quiet yet warm and welcoming creature who loves to give out hugs. However, his monstrous counterpart has large, dilated pupils and sharp teeth, along with an unhealthy dose of murderous intent. He still loves hugs, but rather than a fuzzy wuzzy embrace, they’re the let-me-suffocate-you-and-bite-your-face variety. Mommy Long Legs is the main antagonist of Chapter 2, dragging you through a series of deadly games in exchange for the code you need to start the train and get out of the factory. Throughout, she frequently flips between a soft, maternal yet menacing voice, to downright furious screams, and she clearly finds great joy in toying with her prey.
