Talking Typography
Letters, numbers and other typographical symbols that talk.
Examples of Talking Typography include:
Fan Works

Live-Action TV
- Sesame Street loved these as well.[context?]
Toys
- Part of the wave of 1980s Transformers knockoffs were a line of letters and numbers that turn into robots. There may not have been a back-story.[context?]
Video Games
- Most of the characters in Three in Three, starting with the protagonist, Ms. 3.
- The Unown from Pokémon resemble the 26 letters of the Latin alphabet as well as a question mark and an exclamation point, but the only thing they can actually say are their own names.
Web Animation
- Charlie the Unicorn: Brought to you by the incredible singing Letter Y.
- Pixar Logo Gone Horribly Wrong![context?]

- Adventures in ASCII.
- The Perry Bible Fellowship has a typically acerbic twist on this idea.
