* The ''Manga/CrayonShinChan'' special, ''Figure Wars'' has Oban, a {{toku}} action figure being discarded by the Nohara's neighbour, the Hatogayas, only for [[LightningCanDoAnything a stray lightning bolt to hit the toy]] and giving it life. Gaining the powers to [[ToyTransmutation fire energy bolts capable of turning humans into action figures]], Oban goes on a rampage, first transmuting Micchi and Yoshirin Hatogaya in revenge and then doing the same to everyone in the neighborhood, from the Nohara's other neighbour Miss Kitamoto to Hiroshi and Misae Nohara, and then most of the cast save for Shin-Chan, Nene and Masao. Eventually Shin-Chan is the only survivor, but by [[MirrorsReflectEverything using a mirror to reflect Oban's bolt]] Shin-Chan defeats the vengeful toy, who then shatters to bits. And thanks to NoOntologicalInertia, the rest of the cast gets restored to human forms as well, and the audience learns the SpaceWhaleAesop that if you abandon your toys, you'll be ''transformed into one''.

** Staya was the Girl's favorite toy before she disappeared due to [[spoiler:dying of an unknown illness]]. She used to play a game with him where they attacked and beat up the other toys (likely because the Girl didn't know the other toys were alive.) He just wants her to come back so they can continue playing their game again, even if it is a sadistic one. He does fight Adeline, who he suspects is the Girl, in three boss fights, but it's implied that he's trying to capture her rather than kill her in the first two. In the third, he attacks because he's devastated that [[spoiler:Adeline is not the Girl, and the Girl is dead]].

Even the ones that are AxCrazy seem to have other reasons for it besides the Girl leaving them.

-->-- '''Pokédex entry of Banette''', ''[[VideoGame/PokemonUltraSunAndUltraMoon Pokémon Ultra Sun]]''
LivingToys are every child's best friend! They walk, they talk, they're fun to play with, they listen to your problems, and they'll love you unconditionally, forever and ever...
...until you lose them, replace them, forget about them, or simply outgrow them and leave them sitting on a shelf for years. Then their painted smiles turn into frowns, their once-cute features turning menacing and creepy. Emerging from trash cans, dusty shelves, and cardboard boxes, they prowl the night in search of the child who abandoned them, either to get their owner's love back, or to declare that IfICantHaveYou, no other toy can either. Needless to say, this kind of villain has a FreudianExcuse built into their backstory. They almost certainly have feelings of "EtTuBrute" towards the owner who abandoned them.
It may become a ClingyMacGuffin, repeatedly showing up in its owner's house despite attempts to destroy it or throw it in the trash. If it's an electronic toy, its owner may end up yelling, "ItWontTurnOff!!" If it's seeking revenge on its former owner, it is likely to be pitted against another toy owned by that child who loves them and wants to protect their owner from harm.
More modern examples include video game characters angry that their owner hasn't played with them in years; this particular version of the trope is popular in {{creepypasta}}.
Sub-trope of LivingToys. May overlap with CreepyDoll, KillerTeddyBear, PerversePuppet, and DemonicDummy. Related to GrowingUpSucks and ForgottenFriendNewFoe. Likely to be a WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds, a TragicVillain, or a {{Yandere}}.
Compare ApatheticPet. If it's a video game, it may cross over with TheMostDangerousVideoGame.
