Five Nights at Freddy's

The fandom didn't waste any time. Baby already has fan-art coming out for her. This is my favorite so far.

I guess depicting her like Harley Quinn caught on really fast.

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uw4-bZkxyKQ

I get it..."sister" location...all female animatronics...ha ha ha...*facepalm*

Aside from the color scheme, nothing really implies Funtime Freddy is female. I'm curious about Funtime Freddy's Bonnie hand puppet.

After seeing that post and seeing the first few moment of the trailer I thought for a moment I was about to see the original games with the animatronics gender flipped. Would've given "Springtrap" a whole new meaning.

Oh my gosh... It looks like you can move around the facility! It's an actual upgrade to FNAF!

The concept has my interest, and I was right that this is where we're going to learn about Mangle's origins. It's pretty weird though that they have more human-like animatronics, though. It's also weird that the exoskeleton on the animatronics jiggle and shake in place. Still, I look forward to this. I wonder what they've been through?

Did anyone see the dolls of Balloon Boy and another character, probably Bidybab or Ennard?

I'm guessing it's related to whatever the "unfortunate incident involving multiple, simultaneous springlock failures" was. Maybe it's why they're underground?

Anybody hear what the girl was saying? Turtle princess? Todo went against us? Don't turn it against us?

"Don't hold it against us."

...that seems like a good enough reason, along with the title "Sister Location" and the little girl's voice echoing throughout the trailer.

I really can't wait for the FNAF wiki and steam forums to light up over this issue. :p

Ominous.

Who?

oh hello there

Scott trademarked the names of all the sister location animatronics a few weeks back. Its how we first found out about Baby, Funtime Foxy and Funtime Freddy.

The others in the trademark were Ballora, Minireena, Ennard, and Bidybab.

I've just watched GT Live stream of FNAF World update 2. The (final?) ending is putting a lot of emphasis on Baby, showing even a sample of what could be her voice and having her apparently killing the author. That's one hell of a buildup.

I like the look of those animatronics, it reminds me of something you would find in a futuristic ride or something. There's no practical point to having their head split like that, but my first impression is good!

EDIT: I just noticed that Funtime Freddy seems to have a Bonnie puppet on his hand.

I also like how this trailer summarize the previous game in terms of feelings and emotion conveyed. FNAF 1 was fear, FNAF 2 was panic, FNAF 3 was dread and FNAF 4 was terror. Pretty accurate!

Well, we knew about Funtime Foxy from a Blink-and-You-Miss-It moment in the FNAF World trailer.

Assuming this was posted a long time ago, spoilers for Update 2 but... wow.

This game isn't cute anymore.

I don't think FNAF World was ever "really" cute. The Adventure Animatronics, sure, but the original overworld and BGM for exploring it was surprisingly gloomy, and the fact that the game had no "good" ending just made it worse.

Man, Jimmy Neutron Rainbow is a complete jerk. Still, those mini-games are pretty funny.

Okay so that trailer....

• Something just looks wrong about all of those animatronics to me, specifically the way they move or twitch. I know it's possible that some of them are springlock suits but....
• So we have a human ballerina animatronic. Interesting.....
• This location is possibly underground? Or at the very least that's the theme? Kind of odd but interesting...
• Funtime Freddy being a backup singer with a Bonnie Doll is kind of interesting.
• There is Balloon Boy looking animatronic doll in the office which makes me assume those 4 are not the only animatronics we have to deal
• We can move around vents, possible free-roam?
• Scott's animations have come along way. Compare the animatronic show here too the original and you can see just how smooth the movement is

• Apparently at one point you can see what looks like the Marionette in Funtime Foxy's/Mangle's reflection. It might just be Baby (her smile looks similar) but if it isn't then....
• The whispers throughout the trailer have been pieced together. Apparently what she is saying is Don't hold it against us, this along with You don't know what we been through sounds a lot like dead children shenanigans. Looks like we might get more information about the murders.
• People are saying that there is what sounds like a bomb siren near the end of the trailer. Considering how the sister location seems to be underground and how it seems like this was the sister location to Fredbears....
• There will be more voiced characters then Phone Guy. This suggests that the animatronics will talk to us. Considering how we have already heard Baby's voice that just makes it even more likely.
• In that little glimpse of the room with the Balloon Boy looking doll hanging off the top there is a similar sized doll with a magician theme and the room seems to be some sort of programming room for the animatronics. Interesting possible mechanic and characters being hinted at here

Just when I thought Balloon Boy and Marionette were the strangest of the bunch. Getting mauled to death/possibly crushed by a ballerina robot. I'd never be able to live that down.

I thought it looked like an elevator, maybe part of some kind of animatronic factory.

Ah-ha, knew it! More dead, ghost children then? Scott's avatar in FNAF World implied he'd created something horrible.

I think we've seen her before...◊

That has been pointed out before yes. Kinda creepy how much those two look alike.

Some new interesting tidbits

• Funtime Freddy and Funtime Foxy both have speakers on there chests. I think it's very much likely we will actually hear those two's voices now (and possibly Bonnie's as well if the hand puppet is intended to talk)
• The Ballerina's endo has really sharp looking teeth for some reason. Also, the fact she never opened her eyes during the entire trailer is kind of creepy.
• Speculation has it that Scott might be pulling our legs and this might be taking place in the future. After Fazbear's Fright specifically. The reason why this speculation is popping up because of just how ridiculously advanced these animatronics look (which is a bit odd now I think about it as they look even more up to date then the Toy Animatronics) and the possible reflection of Springtrap on Baby in the section teaser
• There is also speculation that the Funtime Foxy here isn't actually Mangle as we know her. Mangle never had the features seen here so it might just be a higher quality model of her for some reason
• Considering how these are advanced springlock suits/animatronics I very much imagine that how we die is going to be absolutely nightmarish. Springtrap levels of nightmarish....

The arms are ball-jointed at the elbows, so I doubt this is something that was intended to be worn. The fact that the plates on the face come apart doesn't mean they're not using spring lock mechanisms, though.

I also wonder why this being a different model of Mangle is a surprise, since it's obvious from the start. Plus Mangle's backstory was pretty well explained in the game that model was in, and used different models of known characters so that a different model is used in different location (meaning it couldn't have been the same model of Mangle to start with) isn't strange at all. You can't have the same robots at different locations, even if you're using the same models. So seeing the same model wouldn't make that the robot that becomes Mangle.

why are all the parts like bulging anyway what purpose does that serve mechanically

ps hi ace

I think it might be some sort of tech meant to imitate facial expressions.

I just had a thought. If these are indeed Spring Lock suits, what if one or more of them had as a kill/jumpscare animation opening up and pulling you in to get Springtrapped.

Honestly, the thing that's kinda weird is how they look both more and less advanced than previous bots.

More so because they have individual finger movements. Less because they have visible speakers and vents, and have that weird faceplate thing to simulate facial expressions (or possibly ventilation, since they seem to completely open and seemingly random).
