** Zigzagged with the Pokémon Exeggcute. It consists of six sentient eggs, of which some have visible cracks. However, certain Pokédex entries specify them more as being seeds, while still referring to them as the egg Pokémon. Other entries call them eggs, leaving it up to ambiguous as to whether or not they actually are eggs.

* [[SnakePeople Sir Pentious's]] AdorableEvilMinions in ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' consist of anthropomorphic eggs known simply as the Egg Bois.

* The Silver Age ''ComicBook/WonderWoman'' villain Egg-Fu is a Red Chinese giant egg with a prehensile moustache.

** White Handsomey and his brother Dark Handsomey, both introduced in the first season's ''Great War in the Bizarre World'' StoryArc, are anthropomorphic eggs with arms and legs.

* Just as the NurseryRhyme, Humpty Dumpty from ''WesternAnimation/PussInBoots'' is a talking egg with clothes who has a life of his own. Different from the story, he's one of Puss's friends before meeting Franchise/{{Shrek}} and he's a ManipulativeBastard who uses Puss for his own ulterior motives. [[spoiler: When his shell is broken it turns out that he's a golden egg laid by the goose from another nursery rhyme; it MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext]].

* The Australian children's program, ''Series/PlaySchool'' features the character of Literature/HumptyDumpty imagined as an anthropomorphic egg. Humpty is a plush doll in-show, but the presenters speak for him in skits.

* ''Literature/TheBigOverEasy'' is about the investigation of the suspicious death of Humpty Dumpty [[note]]This is the same character from the ''Literature/ThursdayNext'' books, as they take place in a SharedUniverse[[/note]], who, like in the nursery rhyme, is a large (about 4.5 ft tall), anthropomorphic egg with a love of sitting on walls. The fact that Humpty is an egg factors into his characterization, as he has a crippling fear of mongooses and egg timers.

* The titular character from the NurseryRhyme "Humpty Dumpty" is an egg that fell from sitting on a wall and shattered to pieces. All the king's horses and men were unable to put him back together again.

* One [[NightmareFuel infamous]] Kinder Surprise [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qB1RU5posWQ commercial]] starred an UncannyValley version of Humpty Dumpty with a human-like face and skin, and speaking in some sort of strange gibberish.

* Gudetama, a Creator/{{Sanrio}} mascot, is unusual in that he's a broken egg. The character is a depressed, slumping egg yolk surrounded by his broken shell, who's been inexplicably successful as a mascot despite (or because of) the BlackComedy surrounding the character.

** [[spoiler:The Shimmers]] from ''WebAnimation/InanimateInsanity'' are this since they are extraterrestrial light beings that use EggshellClothing as their bodies.
* Any [=YouTube=] Kids "learning colors" video with the eggs with faces fits this trope.

* ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiPartnersInTime'': Sunnycide os essentially a giant, living, tentacled version of the Yoob eggs it guards, with a large crack across its middle forming its mouth.

* ''ComicStrip/USAcres'' as well the animated version in ''WesternAnimation/GarfieldAndFriends'' has [[MeaningfulName Sheldon]], a little chicken who hasn't completely hatched from his egg (but doesn't want to do it), being basically a talking egg with legs.

* Any YouTube Kids "learning colors" video with the eggs with faces fits this trope.

* There's a Taiwanese ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'' knockoff, titled "IQ Egg" (IQ蛋) where Doraemon was changed from a robot cat to a giant, human-sized sentient egg with pockets for retrieving gadgets. '''[[https://cdn.hk01.com/di/media/images/dw/20200922/385101495756001281.jpeg/TEAcwuM-DXfuIelhXXpCvrRC6rUerumCu7W0k7u1tJM?v=w1920r16_9 No, not making this up]]'''. Apparently the magazine's publishers ran into licensing issues for Doraemon, so they created a CaptainErsatz by literally ''drawing over'' used Doraemon artwork.

** NiceShowForWeenies has a dark, rock-shaped and conventional-looking egg named Eggyiey and Eggcardo respectively.

* There's always going to be a market for this in the [[ObjectShows object shows community]].

* ''WebVideo/TheAnnoyingOrange'': Much like all other food that appears in the series, eggs are sentient beings that talk with others. One of the more notable ones being Arnold [=SchwarzenEGGer=]. Upon interacting with Orange, he ends up hatching into a terminator egg. After getting struck, he hatches again into a [[KillerRabbit terminator chick]].

* ''WesternAnimation/HuevocartoonTV'': The chraracters are anthropomorphic eggs living in a civilized and humorous setting comprised of other anthropomorphic eggs.

* ''WesternAnimation/UnaPeliculaDeHuevos'' and its sequels, like ''WesternAnimation/HuevocartoonTV'' feature walking, talking eggs, but feature them in the human world with the AnimalTalk trope in play. Also, most unhatched eggs have some attributes which help identify their true animal species. Reptilian eggs, for example, are usually green in coloration, have slit pupils, sharp teeth, and, in Serp's case, fully developed tails signaling the impending emergence of the hatchling inside.

* ''VideoGame/{{Tamagotchi}}'': The Gotchi King is a Tamagotchi resembling a giant golden egg with limbs or facial features.

** ''Joys of Seasons'' introduces a race of limbless blue egg aliens that visit Earth several times.

* There is an obscure cartoon adaptation of ''Humpty Dumpty'' where Humpty is the only white egg in a kingdom populated by humans and other egg people. An evil snake (who is probably {{Satan}}) tricks Humpty into thinking that being the only white egg makes him better than everyone else in order to lure him into climbing the wall so he could eat him.
