• There was a clay-animated ad for Cadbury's Crunchie bars where a bar turned into the word "Crunchie". The letters didn't talk, though—they just ate each other. Nightmare Fuel?

• Sesame Street loved these as well.

• 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.

• Most of the characters in 3 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.

• Charlie The Unicorn: Brought to you by the incredible singing Letter Y.
• Pixar Logo Gone Horribly Wrong!

• Adventures in ASCII.
• The Perry Bible Fellowship has a typically acerbic twist◊ on this idea.
• Penny Arcade has a talking period, correcting trolls and addressing fan outrage. And this.
