Weird FNAF Toys (TFNAF2)

So... I know these can't be the real thing, but I've been stumbling upon what I think are fake FNAF toys... Okay, I have a good suspicion they're knock-offs, but I don't want somebody on Ebay going out for blood. I would like to note that I don't own any of these toys and don't know about their quality. I'll start with the big lot of toys.

This is the big lot that I found. The toys seem to be styled off of FNAF World's design primarily, except for a few minor exceptions that you may notice.

These first four are obviously Bonnie, Springtrap, Nightmare, and one of the enemies from FNAF World that I can't recall the name of. Other than the odd eyes, the coloring is mostly fine on Bonnie and Springtrap. Nightmare's blue claws are a little strange, but he looks close enough to the real thing. I'm not sure if this color of enemy is in the game, but it doesn't really matter as much. As you see, Bonnie has a guitar that can be removed from his hand.

Now we get to the weirder ones. Mangle's coloring is a bit off and the face is sort of strange, especially with the smiling second head. The body matches the shape well enough though. Foxy also has weird coloring on him, with missing eyes and a blue muzzle and toes. Not sure what's going on with the blue. Then we have the night guard and the purple man. I can't tell what it says on the security guard's hat, but the blue eyes match Mike's. The purple guy doesn't look like the purple guy in the games, but more like the adaptation taken by fanworks. They are rather similar looking and may be the same model with different coloring. What's weird is that neither of these characters are in FNAF World, so these are (somewhat) original designs. The hammer also is removable.


This is definitely the weirdest group here. We have Nightmare Balloon Boy, whose completely mis-colored and, if I remember right, not in FNAF World. His grey teeth are also pretty unnerving. Then we have Toy-Chica, who has some odd eyes and is missing the words on her bib. The rest of her coloring is fine. There's a stoned looking Freddy who looks close enough, except the eyes. Finally we have Marionette, who looks pretty close except has a pinkish face, misses the tear marks, has incomplete face paint, and his feet are shaped wrong. Sadly enough, I still like him best. (I'm shamefully biased.)


If I found a lot like this at a flea market I would snatch it in a heartbeat. It's so weird looking, but they do look close enough to FNAF stuff to have a little fun with. While the versions of characters differ, with some being from various games, there is one version of every main character and no doubles. That's something worth mentioning... The only problem is the price, which is over twenty dollars, the fact that coloring may be different on the final product (when the coloring is already somewhat off it disturbs me), and the actual quality of the final items. So it's really a mixed bag, and you can be taking a risk here.

But that's not all. In fact, we have another familiar face here; another Marionette.


This one is an 11" high Marionette doll. As a collector of action figures, I can assure you that this is rather tall. In fact, this is closer to the average fashion doll than the average action figure. His proportions are a bit off; the arms look fine, but the legs are too short. The painting job is... Questionable. Through the other pictures, you can see chips in the black part of the mouth. There's some strange lumps around the torso, but I don't know if they're intentional.

The plus is definitely the arms' articulation. It's a shame the head and legs don't have as much. From what I see there's eight joints, nine if the middle moves. He also comes with this odd Freddy doll, which sort of looks like the little Freddies from Nightmare Freddy. He also comes with a base... And get this...

He glows. He actually glows different colors.

I don't even know what to think of this. He looks kind of cool, but the paint job is a little questionable, and I worry about toys that having glowing mechanics. I also don't know if that base would really do a good job of holding him; I think he'll be a little too top heavy. The Freddy that comes with him is also a little curious. He goes at over twenty dollars too, if you count the shipping that is about as much as he is.

Between this and the lot, while I love the Puppet and all, I'd say the lot is a better deal. Even with the odd colors and risk of blue popping around. Mainly because it comes with a lot more and seems like it could get more out of it. If the Marionette was about, oh, maybe ten bucks or less I would say that he would be worth checking out cautiously.

I have one more thing that I just found and it's... Really strange.



This is a lot that looks similar to the one above, except more detailed. This set goes for a whopping $125 with $32 shipping. The lot comes with Marionette, Chica, Mangle, Toy Bonnie, Foxy, Golden Freddy, Purple Guy, damaged Freddy, Spingtrap, Jeremy, and Balloon Boy. I see why these are so expensive; they look hand made in a way and, while sometimes wonky, do have a lot of detail. They even come with a Freddy, a Bonnie, and a silver Puppet mask. I would not spend this much on these, but they do look kind of cool. Their faces even come off! Even Sprintrap's! I'd say Balloon Boy looks closest to the game, but I like Purple Guy and angry Marionette.

Except... Do you notice something? I didn't notice it at first, but something is amiss.

It's the box.

What in the hell is this? This is Foxy with a soldier hat, Bonnie wearing a white hat, Marionette in a fedora, and a close in of Fredbear's face. This baffled me at first; I didn't know what I was looking at. It wasn't until the next picture that I realized what I was looking at... And it's just so wrong.

Just in case you don't know what you're looking at, that's Bonnie holding a medigun, Foxy in a soldier suit, and Marionette dressed as a spy. It's the FNAF characters dressed like Team Fortress 2 characters. What on Earth- I don't know if I'm surprised or if this is hilarious. Puppet's a Spy, Bonnie's a medic, and Foxy is a soldier; someone went out of their way to put them in TF2 gear even though they could've sold them as they were. XD What in the world?! This made the whole thing worth finding. Team FNAF 2.

So that was what I found while looking for FNAF toys on Ebay. I ran into a strange assortment of characters, such as pink-faced Puppet, Rainbow Marionette, and Marionspy. If I find more of these toys I will be sure to post a second story regarding them. For now, I hope you enjoyed this journey into weird territory!

(You mean the happy child?)
