Oh. That's bad

Hiiii M2

Yeah so imma be real. I was just fucking wrong 🤷🏻‍♂️

Still got the characters, major story beats, and (some of) the costumes, so I'm happy. Still believe VIP canonises circleplex, so I got what I wanted from the books

no, because real! found out about them like a week or two ago, and i LOVE it

asriel hugs dess' arm and rests his head on her shoulder as she flips the bird looking super smug

and some dessriel

didnt wanna finish this either meow meow meow

Because Murray didn't create costumes in The Mimic, he was sent them by Fazbear Entertainment

There's no way MCM has been around for 7 years. Murray Co? Yeah. But MCM? nah

we're getting old school image brightening 🥹 my heart is full

So Edwin made the HUG vacuum, then developed Mimic1, before essentially merging the two later on to create that monstrosity? Murray's a weird dude, but i fw it

The marketing for SOTM paints Edwin as having gone a little bit crazy (namely the funhouse-esque look to the front of Murray's Costume Manor). Likely due to the amount of grief and trauma he'd gone through

As I was thinking, I remembered the part of The Storyteller that literally hinted at MCM existing. Compare this quote of what Edwin draws (again, while in front of the WHITE TIGER) to the MCM logo. Sure, it could be random scribbles, but the fact the MCM logo has the same thing is suspect to me-

I've started reading fanfic and imagining myself in one of the characters' place, incase this thread doesnt tell you what you need to know about me

They were likely the endoskeletons used in the other animatronics (as seen in these two steam page screenshots), however, either after, or shortly before, the model 2s were deactivated to stop Mimic/Mimic1 corrupting them too-

okay, i hate the model 2s, so imma just speed through this part:

Despite the model 2s being deactivated, Tales only eludes to the ORIGINAL causing issues (aka: the event i've yapped about for the first like ten posts), this implies the model 2s were active at the same time as the original-

alternatively, if you subscribe to the theory that FFP was SUPPOSED to open in 1979, but then was delayed, due to the events of SOTM, then Murray Co/ Murray's Costume Manor could've been creating animatronics for Freddy's-

it belonged to Edwin Murray, obviously, as he was an engineer for Fazbear's. i'm aware it says they built characters for FREDDY FAZBEAR'S PIZZERIAS, as opposed to Fredbear's or FallFest, but i'm chalking that up to Freddy's being better known in the eyes of the people reading the notebook (Lucia)-

We learn that they were built to fit into any mascot costume, and were taught their show routines off other animatronics, as opposed to being programmed (like a regular animatronic would). the notebook containing this info, belonged to an engineer on the FazEnt animatronic creation team. who?-

Going off my last point (i'm aware i'm jumping around a little, sorry, i've got so many thoughts and not much skill at articulating them), if you follow Tales, you'll realise there are a load of small inconsistencies that link up to hint at an event after The Mimic, but before the Pizzaplex arc-

I'm just making a thread about something I enjoy. I'm not claiming I'm "right". If TalesGames doesnt end up being true? Kinda sucks, but whatever, I ain't gonna throw a fit about it. This is all just for FUN

Agree to disagree, I think - from the right angle - it makes sense

Grief will do crazy things to ya

Also i'm not saying DIRECTLY after, there's a decent bit of time between the end of the story and SOTM. I think SOTM picks up in December, due to the snow in one shot

Ooh actually, there's an interesting detail I didnt mention. If you track the timeline of the first half of The Mimic, it goes from March to (at the latest) May. However, Ron mentions to both Team A and B that Edwin had disappeared "a few months ago". May to December is a little longer than that

Hey, quick question for research purposes. Do you believe Prototype Glamrock Freddy is the same one as the one from Security Breach?

It'll cover stuff like:

- what Edwin saw
- how Mimic got burnt
- how Mimic learnt hide and seek

I don't believe there ARE issues, but:

We get the start of the story with 'The Mimic' and the end of the story with 'The Storyteller' (and RUIN, but still). I believe SOTM will account for the middle chunk that's eluded towards, but purposefully omitted from the books

Please read the thread before commenting. You don't have to agree, I'm merely speculating how the "issues" are squared away

Speaking of "the full truth", let's now talk about the mimic line. These guys were mass produced mimics that had the ability to (just like RUIN and SOTM Mimic) expand and contract to fit into any suit. To start off, I feel it's heavily implied that Mimic's new head belonged to one of them-

he could've even used the Mimic1 code as a sort of bargaining chip, promising to let Fazbear Entertainment use it for whatever they wanted, if they'd give him a higher salary, and help fund the renovation. that would mean the line from the trailer WASN'T a lie, it just wasn't the full truth-

So, to recap:

After part 1 of 'The Mimic', Edwin fixed Mimic up, before taking the Mimic1 program, to develop further, in an effort to take control of his company (Murray Co) again (as FazEnt had bought it out). He then returns and, with a change in his contract, renovated the factory into MCM-
