Living Toys: Difference between revisions

** And then there's that infamous episode of Angel.

** Infamous? I'd much rather say famous. Because who doesn't love Smile Time?

* "[[The Twilight Zone|She's ''alive'', Daddy -- and her name is]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSy8Ko1vSKQ&feature=PlayList&p=BBB6F9B1E858DBE1&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=32 Talky Tina]!" (I know this is on the Evil side too, but Tina ''did'' protect the little girl from her abusive stepfather.)

** The twist ending of {{spoiler|"Five Characters in Search of an Exit"}} involves the characters finding out that they are toys.

* ''Fuzzy Heroes'' is a miniature wargame-style game about armies of toys fighting each other while the kids aren't around. It uses real stuffed animals and toys that the players have lying around as units.

* The page quote was parodied by ''[[GURPS]]'' when it offered a line of stuffed animal [[Eldritch Abomination|Cthulhu toys]]. The ad text read in part: "tonight's the night the teddy bears summon Cthulhu!"

* The Mannekins from ''[[Changeling: The Lost (Tabletop Game)|Changeling: The Lost]]'' are based around this, though it can be anything from a stuffed doll to a clockwork dancer and so on.

** Banette is a living toy out seeking for the owner who threw it away...

* ''[[Toy Soldiers (Video Game)|Toy Soldiers]]'', an Xbox Strategy game, focuses on two sides of a [[WW 1]] tin soldier toy set, Germans vs. the British/French, who carry out large, full scale battles inside a diorama which stands on a small table (just to give the audience an idea of the proportions). The player's main goal is to defend his "toy box" (literally) against the infantry, cavalry, tanks, and biplanes of the foe, using their own tanks, cannons, machine guns, AA-guns, howitzers, and aeroplanes, while (only in Multiplayer) trying to take over the foe's toy box by sending their own soldiers. Great idea and great theme. The player will surely enjoy the ''toffee apples'' flying around, while having a ''pozzy on japan'', with some nice ''gunfire''.

* The short-lived Sega series, ''Clockwork Night''.

* All of the characters in the first ''[[Super Smash Bros]]'' game are actually toys of video game characters a child is playing with in his room. In ''Melee'', they're figures in a collector's trophy case. In ''Brawl'', they're trophies in an [[Alternate Universe]] in which all Nintendo characters (plus [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] and [[Metal Gear|Solid Snake]]) live side by side.

* [[James Rolfe]] tangles with Mr. Bucket, a very persistent little guy with an appetite for [[Groin Attack|yer balls]], in an episode of his [[Board James]] series.

* The [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Tails Doll]] is an example of this. While not particularly evil in canon, [[The Internet]] had other ideas...
