Poppy Playtime Fan's Huggy Wuggy Sculpture Is Too Cute To Be Scary
A fan has made an adorable diorama statue of Poppy Playtime antagonist Huggy Wuggy, offering up a much cuter version of the scary in-game character. Huggy Wuggy has been a fan-favorite villain since the game released, and his appearance as a fuzzy blue toy is only one of the many examples of Poppy Playtime's juxtaposition of child-friendly imagery with nightmare fuel, which initially sparked some controversy as Poppy Playtime grew in popularity.
The story of Poppy Playtime centers around a conspiracy involving the fictional toy company Playtime Co. Over the course of the story, which now includes both Chapter 1 and 2, the player discovers that Playtime Co. has been experimenting with transferring human consciousness into their toys, which resulted in the creation of horrific, vengeful creatures. Huggy Wuggy (a.k.a Experiment-1006) is one of such creatures, and he spends the first game hunting down the player as they explore the abandoned toy factory. He at first appears to be a cute, large, plush-like friend before bearing an array of razor-sharp, shark-like teeth as he strikes his prey. The character has become synonymous with indie horror gaming, spawning not only official Poppy Playtime Huggy Wuggy merchandise, but also lots of fan-made items from creative players.
