The Prototype

The Prototype (commonly known as Experiment-1006 or as the Claw in his plaque form) is a mysterious entity mentioned within two VHS Tapes . No information is currently known about The Prototype's main appearance or motives, but he is presumed to be the main antagonist of Poppy Playtime .

While his main appearance remains mostly unknown, his arm has been seen. It is a robotic arm with red wires and a hand with long, sharp needle fingers, resembling a claw. He also seems to have a bone attached to his forearm for additional support.

Personality

The Prototype has been described as though he actually wants to commit violence for no reason. He has also been confirmed to "possess an unprecedented level of intelligence", being able to combine basic objects and wreaking havoc around the factory. A scientist explained, in one of the VHS Tapes , that The Prototype had managed to construct a laser pointer from a digital alarm clock in his cell and tried to escape by using said laser pointer on the camera in his chamber, then hiding in the camera's blind spot whilst the camera was being fixed.

It is theorized that The Prototype takes parts of other toys around the factory and makes them a part of him, most likely to strengthen himself and help him achieve his motives (or to keep them alive), though said motives are currently unknown.

In the Chapter 1 Trailer 's background, flashing messages state that The Prototype 'finds no necessity for sustenance (unlike the others)'. This, coupled with the Scientist 's description from Log 08502 , confirms that The Prototype is highly violent for no apparent reason, at least to the scientists.

As his claw appears immediately to take the torso of Mommy Long Legs after her death, and the door then opens for The Player with no other hostility, it is possible that The Prototype is "helping" The Player progress through the factory in order to use them to kill the other experiments for himself to assimilate. This suggests an uncanny knack for manipulation, planning, prediction, and deception.

Little is known about The Prototype other than he is the 1006th experminet made by Playtime Co. Guessing by his name and the flashing messages from the Chapter 1 Trailer , he is the prime example for "the type of vessel which (we) are trying to create". The Prototype likely had the optimal "vessel" of a living organic experiment, of which he was serviceable as a crucial example for "the others", presumably the other experiments.

The Prototype was kept in his chamber, monitored at all times. However, one day, he created a laser pointer from the digital alarm clock in his room, fired it at the camera and disabled it for 28.3 seconds. Upon which he hid in a blind spot, forcing a surveillance specialist to come in. He tried to escape through the door but was re-locked before he could. He apparently killed the specialist who was trapped inside, as 'one casualty occurred.'

Hearing from the Final Log Tape from Chapter 1, he managed to escape and go missing. On August 8th, 1995, he started a massive massacre/jailbreak, theorized to be called "The Hour of Joy", against the scientists, based on the sounds of screaming, pounding, something running around in the vents, and the cutting off/supposed death of the scientist recording the tape.

Chapter 2: Fly in a Web

After Mommy Long Legs was killed by the grinder and her severed torso fell to the ground, The Prototype's claw appeared from under the half-closed door to the left. He reached out and took Mommy 's torso away, dragging it away back under the door. After this, he isn’t seen again. Near the end of the chapter, before Poppy's monologue gets cut off, we hear the sound of an alarm clock going off, implying that the Prototype has captured Poppy.

Project: Playtime

While he doesn’t make a physical appearance, his hands are one of the GrabPack Skins in Project: Playtime . Although, it has been theorized that he is the one that instructs the monsters during their tutorial.

Abilities and Anatomy

With the initial release of Chapter 1, players theorized that The Prototype was Huggy Wuggy . That theory was eventually disproved in Chapter 2 , as Huggy Wuggy was referred to as "Experiment 1170" in one of the logs left by the Scientist .
It could likely have been taken from those he killed, as when Mommy Long Legs was being crushed to death in the grinder, she screamed that "He'll make her part of him ." This suggests that he's taking parts of toys and humans and making them part of his body.
Given how Mommy states it, it is implied that toys are fully aware of what is going on in the factory.
From Chapter 1, 'Exp. 1006. Isn't he wonderful?'.
From Chapter 2, 'The Prototype has saved us! Isn't he wonderful?'.
Another from Chapter 2, 'HE IS LOOSE. THIS IS AN EMERGENCY LOCKDOWN'.
This, along with his name, suggests that The Prototype may have been the second successful living organic experiment (the first being Poppy Playtime ).
In Project: Playtime , a mysterious voice instructs Huggy Wuggy on what he needs to do to stop the survivors. Judging by it's tone and mannerisms as well as the use of the arch words "Get Up", it is heavily implied that this voice belongs to The Prototype.
The appearance of this claw may be a reference to the hand of the Other Mother from the movie Coraline. [1]
This was backed up by one of the VHS tapes in Chapter 1 saying: "Coordination and cooperation is in his skillset."
It is also speculated that The Prototype is Elliot Ludwig , protecting those he had failed by fighting back against Harley Sawyer . [2]

The Prototype

Experiment-1006 , also known as The Prototype , is the main antagonist of the Poppy Playtime franchise.

He is a mysterious but incredibly intelligent and dangerous mechanical entity created by Playtime Co. , and is greatly feared by its inhabitants. As the prototype for future experiments of the Bigger Bodies Initiative, hence the name, Experiment-1006 would go on to sabotage the project to prevent the creation of more toys from children and employees.

After using his influence and capabilities to gather enough toys to carry out his bidding, the Prototype orchestrated "the Hour of Joy", an event which lead to most of the toys going on a rampage, in which they massacred nearly all of the staff in Playtime CO., resulting in the company's dissolution and the facility being shut down and abandoned, leaving only the Prototype and the rest of the monstrous toys to reside and wander in the the now-abandoned factory. As of now, the Prototype assimilates and grafts dead toys onto himself for some unknown goal.

He is voiced by Michael Kovach in Project: Playtime , who also voiced the Scientist in the same game, N in Murder Drones , Rocky Rickaby in Lackadaisy , and Jax in The Amazing Digital Circus . In Chapter 3, as he mimics the voices of several characters, he is voiced by Elijah Delaney, Nola Klop, Eric True, Avalon Delaney, Baldwin Williams Jr., Micah Preciado, and Joaquin Augusto.

Quick Answers

Appearance [ ]

The true appearance of the Prototype is currently unknown, as he shrouds his body with darkness and in the shadows, though CatNap's altar reveals he has at least a roughly inhuman and amalgamated appearance with 4 spider-like legs and a skull for a head. One of his arms is long and mechanical, consisting of a large claw with a set of five long fingers with several pivots on each joint. The arm also has human bones and veins attached to it, implying that, aside from other toys, he had made the remains of the humans he had killed a part of him. The Prototype also has been hinted to be gigantic in size, as his arm alone was nearly the length of CatNap’s entire body. 1006 likely has human and toy remains (like Mommy Long Legs and CatNap) strung throughout his body, given the look of CatNap's altar.

Personality [ ]

Upon first inspection, the Prototype is a wild, ruthless, callous, bloodthirsty, tyrannical and misanthropic entity, driven solely by a desire to engage in senseless acts of aggression. Nevertheless, various VHS tapes have provided evidence that this entity possesses an exceptionally high level of intelligence and exhibits strategic thinking. One account narrated by an unidentified scientist who worked at the factory detailed a remarkable incident in which the Prototype demonstrated his resourcefulness. Confined within a cell, he managed to fashion a laser pointer out of a digital alarm clock and cunningly employed it to manipulate a surveillance camera, facilitating his escape, though it ultimately failed.

In the Chapter 1 trailer, there is a noticeable and attention-grabbing flashing message in the background. This message implies that 1006, unlike the other characters, does not require sustenance to survive. This suggests that the Prototype may engage in acts of killing simply out of a deep-seated enjoyment in causing pain and suffering, rather than any actual need for sustenance.

In Chapter 2, when the Prototype emerges for the first time in a physical form, something peculiar happens. Despite the fact that he has just taken the torn remnants of Mommy Long Legs , a toy known for its aggression towards the protagonist, the Prototype displays no signs of hostility towards the protagonist themselves. This unexpected behavior suggests that the Prototype has been silently observing the protagonist's every move leading up to this moment. It raises the possibility that the Prototype may have undisclosed intentions or hidden motives for encouraging the protagonist to eliminate the other toys.

He shows a strong but justified hatred towards Harley Sawyer and the rest of the company for their highly abusive, cruel, amoral and immoral practices by turning their orphan children into toys to be used for labor, with his hatred of the scientists and their treatment of the children acting as the crux for his motivation of stopping the experiments. However, this makes him a hypocrite, as the toys he amasses into himself are implied to be in extreme pain, making him no better that the scientists he hates (although, this is his way of keeping them safe even after they died, confirming his hypocrisy to be justified as he feels bad for the amassed toys and their states, which reminds him of his hatred to Harley). He also seems to express a certain degree of sympathy, remorse and care for the children, such as Theodore Grambell, whom he assisted when they tried to escape Playtime Co.. When Theodore severely electrocutes himself with the GrabPack, instead of continuing with making his perfect escape, the Prototype instead willingly gets him somewhere where others will notice him and save him before he was recaptured by the security. He also comforts and emphasizes CatNap in the official "Sleep Well" song, placing his hand on his shoulder when CatNap is reminded of his human life, which means that, despite killing him near the end of Chapter 3, the Prototype proves that he genuinely cares about the children (especially CatNap).

All in all, the Prototype is a vengefully rage-filled individual, though a sympathetic one who has a justifiable reason for his actions as being imprisoned and wanting saving the orphans from their experiments. Despite this, Poppy still despises him and wishes his death because he killed many people, including gulity and innocent in The Hour Of Joy, showing that he's still no better than Sawyer even if he was another one of his victims.

Powers and Abilities [ ]

Being the most intelligent and ruthless experiment in the Playtime CO factory, the Prototype is a very patient, collected, calm and cunning entity who always outsmarts any staff members that are against his plans to murder nearly all people in the Playtime CO. factory. He is also extremely intelligent, resourceful, and manipulative enough to sway the toys into aiding him in his goals.

Superhuman intelligence and coordination: The Prototype has been said to have created a laser pointer capable of disabling a camera for 28.3 seconds (exactly) out of just a digital alarm clock. He also hid in one of the camera's blind spots once it reactivated to try to escape. He is also intelligent (and sapient) enough to be able to bond with Theodore Grambell and try to save him when their escape attempt (which he probably thought about all by himself) went south. He is also intelligent enough to successfully organize a massive rebellion against Playtime Co. without much difficulty aside from avoiding anything dangerous to him at the time. He is also intelligent enough to be able to graft dead toys onto his body.
Laser pointer (possibly): The Prototype used this in Log Code: 08502 to disable the security camera in his cell for 28.3 seconds (exactly, in fact). There is a possibility that it can disable other security cameras for possibly the same amount of time. It is unknown, however, if it can harm living beings, but likely not.
Intimidation: The Prototype's grafting habits & extreme abilities make him feared by all the other toys. CatNap establishing his cult which was notorious for its brutality against "heretics" only made him more feared. The Prototype is seemingly aware of this and may have even used CatNap and his cult as his henchmen.
Superhuman dexterity: The Prototype was quick enough to be faster than a human inside when he tried to escape his cell, only being stopped by the re-locking mechanism. The specialist was still inside when the door closed, and the Scientist said that it was "a close call", likely implying that the door closed just as the Prototype was a few meters away from it. He is also flexible enough to fit inside a ventilation shaft from the ceiling hatch in the Safe Room: the same hatch that CatNap came from when the protagonist deals the final blow.
Superhuman strength: The Prototype is extremely strong and brutal man, as he is capable of killing toys or adults that go against his plans, even those known for their enhanced durability.
Sharp claws: The Prototype uses these to collect dead toys (in Mommy and CatNap's case) or to kill his targets (for CatNap (again), the specialist in his cell, & during the Hour of Joy). They might also behind some of the messages on the walls of Playtime's factory.
Enhanced Reach: One of the Prototype's arms (in this case, the arm he uses to kill & gather toy corpses) is capable of reaching Mommy's torso through a small gap. This arm is also capable of killing Catnap from a cramped area from the hatch above the Safe Room.
Stealth: The Prototype likely has the same hiding capabilities of CatNap, albeit better. The most notable example being him hiding in one of the blind spots of the camera in his cell. He is also able to take the body parts of toys in a way where the only visible part of him is the claw he uses to gather the dead toys.
Voice mimicking: As shown in a Chapter 3 tape, the Prototype can mimic the voices of those around him.

Biography [ ]

Origins [ ].

The Prototype was created by Playtime CO. at an unknown point in time, before every other known Toy thus far. He was designed as an ideal vessel expected for the Bigger Bodies Initiative to move forward and bring Playtime CO.'s toys to life as workers for the factory. In addition, the Prototype was presumably the first sentient experiment to come into existence after Playtime CO.'s attempts to replicate the attempts of Elliot Ludwig, the founder of the company, at post-ported vessels to possess. The Prototype was also stated to be an outlier with their other experiments, as he was stated to not require food for survival, which employees, primarily Dr. Harley Sawyer, enjoyed perceiving. It was also stated that the Prototype shows a new trait of himself during every session, making him an interesting figure to examine.

Log 08502 [ ]

During a session, an unnamed scientist recounted an incident that involves the Prototype; while confined in his chamber and being monitored at all times, he crafted a laser pointer from his digital alarm clock and other components in his room before firing it at the security camera and disabling it for 28.3 seconds. He then hid in a blind spot away from surveillance, forcing a surveillance specialist to come into the Prototype's room to confirm his apparent "absence". However, upon entering the room, she realized that the Prototype is hiding. When the latter attempted to escape his confinement, the door was immediately re-locked by another surveillance specialist. Now trapped in the room, the previous specialist was then killed by the Prototype, as the Scientist claimed that "one casualty occurred."

Log 24459 [ ]

During a session with Harley Sawyer, the Prototype questioned him if he and any employees feel remorse for "sticking, beating, and tearing at the flesh" of the experiments. However, Dr. Sawyer managed to cleverly retort back by challenging the Prototype before pointing out on how he continues to uncover new aspects about him during each session. The Prototype thanks Sawyer before mocking him in the latter's own voice that he too learned something about the latter everyday. It is implied he killd Sawyer afterwards.

Meeting Theodore Grambell [ ]

The Prototype escaped confinement and hid inside Playcare, recruiting a troubled orphan named Theodore Grambell to his cause. He frequently encouraged the young boy to sabotage Playtime Co., but to no avail. Their friendship became notorious among the staff, who at first believed that the boy's "friend" was imaginary.

One day, the Prototype tried to make Theodore free him and the other toys using a GrabPack, but the unexperienced child accidentally electrocuted himself. Despite having the opportunity to continue his plans, the Prototype instead brought the wounded boy to Thomas Clarke's office, the latter spotting him, before he was recaptured by Security.

Two years later, 1006 reunited with Theodore Grambell, who had now become CatNap. During their time together, CatNap followed the Prototype around "like a lost puppy," as stated by Leith Pierre, with 1006 seemingly ignoring him.

Poppy Playtime [ ]

Chapter 1: a tight squeeze [ ].

Experiment-1006 is mentioned in the death screens, where the protagonist is asked how they think of him.

The Prototype is mentioned in a VHS tape in the factory. In it, the Scientist explains how the Prototype is missing and directly responsible for the occurring trouble happening in the factory, but explains that he will not harm the research. Screams and Huggy Wuggy 's roar are heard in the background and the tape ends abrupty, implying that Huggy Wuggy killed the scientist. As the tape plays, the Prototype's hand appears on the screen before the tape ends.

Chapter 2: Fly In A Web [ ]

At the end of the chapter, Mommy Long Legs begs the protagonist not to kill her, fearing she'll join "him". After she dies, a large and skinny metal needle hand belonging to Experiment 1006 grabs her remains and drags them into the darkness.

Experiment-1006 is then mentioned in a VHS once again. In it, he is described as being very intelligent, but also very destructive. He is even stated to have made a laser to disable the cameras and escape. This ended in the casualty of an employee. Experiment-1006 is mentioned once again in the death screens, where they said that he was loose which led to the emergency lockdown, as it was mentioned in what happened in the first Experiment-1006 tape.

Chapter 3: Deep Sleep [ ]

Experiment-1006 appears directly in a VHS showing one of his sessions with Harley Sawyer. According to the scientist, the Prototype had been silent in all previous sessions, but this time, he asked him whether he could feel all the pain he inflicted the toys with his experiments and later taunting him about how he learns new things about him with each session, just as Sawyer does with him. According to Ollie, following the Prototype's saving of CatNap /Theodore at that time, the latter started worshiping him as a god and savior to all the toys imprisoned in Playtime, forcing other toys to join his cult and even building a shrine to the Prototype in the caves surrounding Playcare, the underground orphanage built by Playtime CO.

When CatNap is set ablaze and has his fur burnt off by the protagonist, the Prototype's hand appears through a vent above his dying follower before stabbing his claw through CatNap's mouth, killing him. He then takes the cat's now-lifeless body away for his failure to take out the protagonist. Soon after that, it is also revealed by another VHS tape and by Poppy Playtime on how Experiment-1006 orchestrated the toys' breakout and ordered the massacre of the entire Playtime CO. staff including innocent visitors in what came to be known as the "Hour of Joy". As the protagonist and Poppy were descending down to the Prototype's lair via a lift, Kissy Missy was suddenly attacked by an unknown entity (presumably the Prototype).

Other Media [ ]

Project: playtime [ ].

In the canon spin-off game Project: Playtime , the Prototype doesn't make any physical appearances, but his claws are also one of the collectable GrabPack skins found in the game.

It is also heavily implied that the one that instructs the monstrous toys during the tutorial is the Prototype, seeking to stop Playtime CO. from continuing the Bigger Bodies Initiative, which would lead to more orphans suffering.

Gallery [ ]

Others theorized that 1006 was actually the protagonist, and some suggested that it was Mommy Long Legs. Although all of them were disproved in Chapter 2 via the VHS tapes for Huggy, a clipboard in Statues for Mommy, Mommy saying that we worked for Playtime Co. for the protagonist, and 1006 showing up to collect Mommy's remains for all of them.
It is theorized that the Prototype is possessed by Elliot Ludwig, the founder and CEO of Playtime CO., who is angry and vengeful out of a newfound desire to assimilate with dead toys, representing Ludwig's unwillingness to move on from his loved one's (theorized to be his daughter's) death.
Due to the numbering of the experiments in Playtime CO., fans have theorized that the Prototype was created before Huggy Wuggy (Experiment-1170) and Mommy Long Legs (Experiment-1222), but after a failed experimentation with a rat (Experiment-814). This same line of reasoning had also led fans to conclude that the Prototype was actually created some time after Poppy was, being the second successful attempt at creating a sentient toy.
Mommy Long Legs strongly implies that the toys the Prototype assimilates are still conscious even after being assimilated. If this is true, that would make the Prototype responsible for countless toys' suffering.
Unlike other toys trophies, his trophy name is "Claw".
Some believe that instead of Catnap sacrificing himself to 1006, Catnap thought that the Prototype would save him like he did long ago, only for 1006 to kill him so he can amass more parts.
However, the VHS Tape where Miss Delight pleads with CatNap to let her see the children only to be denied possibly due to her murderous nature suggests that they are at least alive & were likely released.
Another problem is that it is unknown how the Prototype gains the voices he mimics, as either he is a full-blown amalgamation of souls sharing one body (possibly explaining the changing voices during his talk with Harley Sawyer before the end) or just requires enough concentration to mimic a target's voice (possibly explaining how he perfectly mimicked Harley Sawyer's voice without all the other voices interrupting in the end of the log).
Poppy also seems to know about Ollie to the point where she encourages the protagonist to trust his advice. Given her intellect, it would seem difficult for anyone posing as Ollie (in this case, the Prototype) to keep up the facade for very long.
By this explanation, Ollie might have been just a small child adopted during the Hour of Joy & is therefore most likely 10-11 years old.
Several fans, including The Game Theorists , theorized that Ollie was a child who was popular among the toys, but has disappeared. The Prototype then used whatever memory he had of Ollie's voice to manipulate Poppy and mislead the protagonist.
Ironically, it is theorized that both of them are the same person.
Both of them also seek to sabotage each other's goals.
Once again, it is theorized that 1006 and Rich are the same.
Kissy Missy also assists the protagonist, rather than trying to kill them like CatNap.
Kissy Missy's toy may have succeeded due to the tradition that is making a gender swapped version of a toy company's most successful mascot, while CatNap's toy was discontinued due to the Red Smoke inside it.
It's unknown whether or not the Prototype will appear in the upcoming live action adaptation created by Legendary Entertainment. But there is possibility that he may will be the main antagonist of the film or at least, an overarching antagonist if this happened.

Forget ff7 rebirth, there’s a new best way to play ff7, animal crossing fan gets incredibly rare achievement after 4 years and 1500 hours.

As the world of Poppy Playtime develops, some fans are theorizing that the mysterious Experiment 1006 may actually be a heroic figure. Known as the Prototype for Playtime Co.’s range of monstrous living toys, 1006 recently appeared in the new Project: Playtime spin-off. The behavior displayed there has led to fresh questions concerning his true goals and motivations.

Project: Playtime has provided fans with plenty of new information and lore to consider in regard to the many mysteries of Playtime Co. An intriguing Poppy Playtime ARG revealing secrets in the lead-up to Project: Playtime was a key part of this, but the early access game has now provided fresh insight into the personality of Experiment 1006 itself. In a tutorial section, a voice believed to be that of 1006 commands Huggy Wuggy to attack the human employees of Playtime Co., urging the toy to prevent the creation of more living toys.

Project: Playtime Suggests Experiment 1006 Wants To Stop Playtime Co.

It is strongly implied that the enormous living toys created by Playtime Co. are made with living humans, most notably children. The fact that Experiment 1006 appears to oppose this has hence cast him in a new light for many fans. For example, following a dark theory about Poppy Playtime ’s gas mask in the upcoming Chapter 3. MatPat of The Game Theorists on YouTube has recently released a new theory about 1006. This new video expounds the idea that 1006, previously believed to be the main villain of Poppy Playtime , will actually be revealed to be the hero of the story.

Poppy Playtime's Experiment 1006 Could Still Have A Secret Agenda

However, while 1006 appears to have a noble goal in Project: Playtime , it is also worth considering that his other actions still leave unanswered questions about his motivations. For example, if 1006 is truly benevolent, then why does Mommy Long Legs treat him with such fear in the ending of Chapter 2? Former Playtime Co. employee Marie Payne, the Poppy Playtime villain’s final lines imply that 1006 aims to incorporate other toys into himself. This could potentially lead to him acquiring their own unique abilities, thereby empowering himself, but this does not match the protectiveness shown in Project: Playtime ; the unseen toy may well have another goal in mind.

Experiment 1006 is noted to be both highly intelligent and adept in cooperation. As such, it is possible that he is actually seeking to gain the loyalty of the toys in Project: Playtime for his own ends. Perhaps, rather than simply seeking an end to Playtime Co., he is actually interested in building an army for some unknown purpose. On the other hand, another of MatPat’s newest assertions is that the true identity of Poppy Playtime ’s mysterious Prototype is Elliot Ludwig, Playtime Co.’s founder. If true, then this would further complicate 1006’s motivations, being a man potentially betrayed by his company going down a dark path.

With so little information about Experiment 1006 available, it is impossible to fully discern his motives at this time. The Prototype may be a manipulative killer, or simply a tormented man trying to correct his company’s crimes. 1006’s obscurity has previously led to other theories being produced by fans, many of which have since been disproved. Any new theories about 1006 are just as likely to be affected by future reveals. Examples of this include one theory that Poppy Playtime ’s player is Experiment 1006 themselves. To find the truth, Poppy Playtime fans can only wait for Chapter 3 and the new revelations it will undoubtedly bring.

What is the Prototype in Poppy Playtime?

The Prototype is a dark and mysterious entity whose identity has yet to be revealed in Poppy Playtime . Here’s everything you need to know about the main antagonist in the Poppy Playtime episodic adventure.

Poppy Playtime : What is Experiment 1006?

The Playcare in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 3

Experiment 1006 (aka the Prototype ) was the original Playtime Co. creation in Poppy Playtime . Crafted to spread joy to the children who resided inside the Playcare Orphanage, 1006, alongside the future experiments, were tortured to uncover their “valuable secrets.” The Prototype could no longer take the torture of its fellow experiments like Huggy Wuggy and CatNap, so the experiments rebelled against the scientists in a massacre that destroyed the Playcare. This was the Hour of Joy .

The Prototype watches you throughout each chapter. It observes but brings no harm toward you. The only time the Prototype appears is to take parts of damaged monsters like Huggy Wuggy, Mommy Long Legs, and, most recently, CatNap . The Prototype cares about the well-being of its fellow experiments. It has previously saved CatNap’s life after an “accident” to which CatNap goes on to worship the Prototype as a god and complete its bidding.

Mommy Long Legs getting caught in Poppy Playtime Chapter 2

The Prototype takes what remains of defeated monsters in each chapter and is likely adding them to its appearance. In the final Poppy Playtime chapter, the Prototype will likely be an amalgamation of monsters you defeated. Even Mommy Long Legs feared her fate at the end of Chapter 2 with “ WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! HE’LL MAKE ME PART OF HIM! YOU… CAN’T… DO THIS TO ME !”

With only a giant metal claw to work off, the Prototype’s full body has never been revealed . But the Prototype is seen as the antagonist of the series by characters like Poppy and Ollie. But more on these characters below.

Poppy Playtime : Who is the Prototype?

The Prototype has a main theory around its identity in Poppy Playtime . As it acts as the primary antagonist in this series, many assume the Prototype is actually Elliot Ludwig , the founder of Playtime Co. Both characters are fond of children .

While Ludwig could be extending his life by placing his consciousness inside the Prototype , it is far more likely that the Prototype behaves more like a mimic (similar to the Mimic in Five Nights at Freddy’s ). The Prototype was likely tortured by Ludwig, considering the experiments originated from him. Mimicking his nature (to care for children) and possibly torturous behavior (nefarious acts on the experiments), the Prototype adopted Ludwig’s attitude. Its intelligence grew the more it learned.

Kissy Missy in The Hour of Joy tape for Poppy Playtime Chapter 3

There are inconsistencies with the Ludwig-Prototype theory however. Chapter 3’s nightmare section may be pointing the finger at the unnamed protagonist being Elliot Ludwig instead. We know that the protagonist is a former Playtime Co. employee and that the monsters recognise them. The protagonist also has a link directly to Prototype because of the death screen messages, telling you to “get up” and keep playing. This either points to the protagonist being an experiment like Huggy Wuggy and Mommy Long Legs or that we are playing as Elliot Ludwig.

If the Prototype isn’t Ludwig but is mimicking him, there comes a question of its true identity. As the Prototype is copying and learning, capable of altering its voice, the Prototype is likely Ollie . Ollie is the protagonist’s key ally in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 3 . The name Ollie is also part of the name Elliot (Ludwig). There is no confirmation on this theory , and I imagine more will be discovered with the release of Poppy Playtime: Chapter 4 . So we’ll just have to wait and see who exactly the Prototype is and its true intentions.

Experiments

Not what you're looking for? See Bigger Bodies Initiative/Experiments .

Experiments [ ]

Experiments are toys created that procedures done on organisms to see if poppies (or poppy based materials) could revive, or transform, organisms. Some experiments failed, with the organisms remaining unresponsive, but some succeeded, such as the ones that were converted into toys.

Experiment 814 [ ]

Experiment 1006 [ ].

Poppy Playtime Experiment 1006, The Prototype, Who is It

Home » Guides » Poppy Playtime Experiment 1006, The Prototype, Who is It

Fans want to know who is Experiment 1006, The Prototype, in Poppy Playtime . Understandable, considering that it is one of the most intriguing mysteries in the game. Well, based on the information we have so far, we think we can hazard an educated guess. Before we begin, know that there will be SPOILERS from here on out. That’s all the warning you’re getting. Let’s begin.

Who is Experiment 1006 in Poppy Playtime

So, who is Experiment 1006 in Poppy Playtime, also known as The Prototype? Let’s go over the evidence, scarce though it is. First off, in Log 08502, we learn that the creature with the giant, metallic claw arm is extremely intelligent, very violent, and has a predilection towards engineering. We also find out that Huggy Wuggy used to be the very model of obedience. Then, we have the Experiment 1006 VHS Tape, in which we learn that 1006 is very good at coordinating and cooperating, and the “him” that was used to create The Prototype was significant in some way.

Which character in the Poppy Playtime universe checks all these boxes? None other than Elliot Ludwig, the founder of the company. He would be the only person that could order Huggy Wuggy to go on a rampage, he’s clearly a brilliant engineer, and has created a company that puts souls into toys. When it comes to who is The Prototype Experiment 1006 in Poppy Playtime, he is really the only answer so far. He might have wanted to preserve himself, since he was getting up there. I guess we’ll have to wait for Poppy Playtime Chapter 3 to come out and see for sure.

Of course, this is just conjecture on our part. It could be somebody else, someone we haven’t even learned about yet. However, Elliot Ludwing being the source of corruption in the factory would also make dramatic sense. Besides (SPOILERS for FNAF ahead), it would perfectly mirror the story of William Afton, and we all know that Poppy Playtime definitely takes a lot of inspiration from that series.
