Harley Sawyer #3

To promote the animals, a cartoon of the same name was shown on Saturdays on many local TV channels, including Playtime TV.
DogDay is an anthropomorphic dog with an orange coat that contrasts with his expressive black eyes, floppy ears, and smooth black nose.

Bron the Dinosaur, or simply Bron, is a large, bright red sauropod dinosaur toy from Playtime Co. He has a rounded head with a small snout, small black eyes with red eyelids, two thin black eyebrows, a long neck, and four short limbs with three blue toes on each. His cheeks, the front of his neck, and his belly are pale yellow, matching his bright body. He has seven scattered blue dots on his back. Bron is generally described as a hard worker, completely dedicated to achieving his goals. He strictly limited his food intake, eating no more than 4,000 calories a day. He is also supposed to be athletic and resilient, capable of enduring tremendous amounts of exercise every day. He also has a sense of humor, as he enjoys making jokes and puns about dinosaurs.
Boogie Bot is a toy from Playtime Co., a small battery-powered robot. Its primary color is lime green, with a secondary color of dark green. Boogie Bot is one of the cutest robots Playtime Co. has ever produced. Thanks to its playfulness and fragility, this charming robot adorned the walls of the Playtime Co. factory for many years after Boogie Bot's release.
Bunny Bunny is a toy produced by Playtime Co., an anthropomorphic yellow rabbit with black eyes, two large fangs, and long ears. He wears a green hat and matching overalls with suspenders and buttons of the same color. Bunny is usually holding two gold plates. His cheeks are orange, as are the insides of his ears; he has small tufts of fur on his chest and on the top of his head. Full of fun and energy, this yellow rabbit is just what a growing child needs! With his symbols, green overalls, little green party hat, and button eyes, he is always ready for a party. In November 1990, an enlarged version of him, number 1176, was created for "Musical Memory" as a way to test brain function and reaction time.

Underground Labs: Located under the Prison, this is the lowest level in the factory. This location has the most advanced security system in the entire Playtime Co. factory and is the main center where the company's scientists conducted experiments. The laboratories have various experimental rooms where surgical instruments and operating tables are stored. This place is decorated in a brutal style, but at the same time resembles the façade of an outdoor playground, there are also sun loungers. In the R&D department, the Playtime Co. logo hangs on the wall and signage leading to different doors, behind which are the various sections of the laboratories, as well as the switchboard room. In the center of the room there are four offices. There is also a Biodiversity Lab – this facility is part of the R&D sector, where experiments were carried out to modify and grow organic, plant or mixed biological materials such as poppy gel, amenity facilities – and is part of the R&D sector, where Playtime Co.'s main resources, such as high-voltage power lines, heating/ventilation, cooling and water treatment systems, were housed and maintained. Engineering - This room is a wing of the Research and Development sector where Playtime Co., equipment and systems, testing and training were designed, tested and maintained (This place is part of the Laboratories, where test subjects were subjected to psychological influence after being turned into experimental samples, brainwashed and told that they were always toys), resuscitation (part of the Laboratories, where the bodies of test subjects, used in combination with poppy gel were combined to create biological organisms modeled after toys produced by Playtime Co. as part of the Big Bodies Initiative)

The upper levels include the main entrance to the factory, which houses a gift shop (where visitors can purchase products on their way out, or on their way in!) and a security room. There's also a lobby where Huggy Waggie stands, and from there, you can access other parts of the factory—the Innovation Department, the Theater, the Cafeteria, the Office System, Testing, the Energy Room, and the Make-A-Friend (where the centerpiece, the Make-A-Friend machine, is located). This machine, invented by Elliot Ludwig, is the pride of Playtime Co. Every visitor can experience the magic of this process: pull three levers and watch their new best friend roll off the conveyor belt. Also on the upper levels are conveyor networks, warehouses, and the Poppy Zone (the interior of the Poppy Zone resembles a nursery; here, Poppy Playtime sits in a glass case).
Middle Levels: Beyond Poppy's area is a passageway leading to Elliot Ludwig's office (an antique wooden room with a decoratively patterned carpet. A wooden executive desk sits in the center of the room, and children's drawings hang on the walls). Further on is the senior staff lounge. A small section of the Play Station corridor reveals the tunnels through which management moved around the plant (in order: Eddie M.N. Ritterman, Leith Pierre, Elliot Ludwig, Stella Graber, Harley Sawyer). Also located there is the Play Station—this is where the orphans from Playtime Co. played minigames that tested their abilities in preparation for becoming toys. The Play Station is underground and lacks natural light, so it has artificial windows with artificial lighting. The Play Station features several play areas where children can play while waiting for the next minigame to begin. In the far center of the area, beneath the Game Station logo, you can see a huge train leading to Playcare. Mummy Longlegs is a guide who makes sure the children are safe and have a great time at the station.

In 1990, a young orphan named Theodore Grambell was chosen as Experiment 1188, the name of the Big Bodies experiment for CatNap.
CatNap resembles a feline creature covered in purple fur. He has black pupils surrounded by white irises and a cat-like nose. His mouth is always open, toothless, and resembles a bottomless void. His paws have four toes, each armed with sharp black claws, and his limbs are very long and stitched together at the joints. A black lightning bolt runs across his chest, with a golden crescent-shaped pendant.
CatNap is prone to antisocial behavior and refuses to make friends, which is why he struggled to fit in with the preschool staff and get along with the other kids. He deeply despises Playtime Co.
CatNap shares some traits with real cats, such as territoriality. Like other "Big Bodies," CatNap was created with a specific purpose: to watch over children at the Kindergarten and lull them to sleep with "red smoke" at the end of the day. At some point, various miniature versions of CatNap were created.
At first, he didn't get along well with the orphans—some of them even screamed in terror upon seeing the giant purple cat for the first time. However, after a month, most of the children accepted CatNap's presence calmly, and some even befriended him.
CatNap can exhale a sleeping gas called "Red Smoke" at will, thanks to a Red Smoke-filled gas delivery device attached to the back of his esophagus. When inhaled, the gas causes anyone nearby to fall asleep. Thanks to his feline anatomy, CatNap walks on all fours and can reach incredible speeds. His feline physiology makes him even more agile, and his elongated limbs give him a significant height advantage.

Poppy Playtime is a small porcelain doll with white skin, curly red hair braided into pigtails with blue bows, large blue eyes, a small nose, freckles, red cheeks, red lips, a string down the back, a blue dress with white frills, a long skirt and sleeves, long white stockings, and black shoes. Poppy is one of Playtime.Co.'s earliest and most popular toys. It was Poppy that made Playtime Co. a leader in toy innovation. Created by Elliot Ludwig in the likeness of his own daughter, Poppy Ludwig, she could speak mechanically and communicate. Elliot Ludwig eventually created an experimental version of Poppy (Experiment 1007) as part of one of the many experiments that preceded the Big Bodies Initiative. This version of Poppy is created from body parts of Elliot Ludwig's deceased daughter, Poppy, and resides in a shrine dedicated to her, with a side door leading to Elliot Ludwig's office. Due to her small stature, she can easily navigate vents and operate machinery.
Prototype is cunning, intelligent, and cruel. He is known as Experiment 1006, or simply "Prototype." Dr. Harley Sawyer believes Prototype holds a priceless secret and is determined to uncover it. The child who became Prototype was Oliver, better known as "Ollie." Elliot Ludwig adopted him and offered to take Ollie to a "better place," which led to his transformation. Prototype was constructed from both organic and mechanical parts. Ollie quickly realized that he was not resurrected out of pure altruism, but to pave the way for Poppy Ludwig's resurrection. Ollie was furious, but Elliot calmed him, saying that he and Poppy would get along and that Ollie would be part of their family. Ollie later began calling himself "Prototype." He is angry that Elliot Ludwig favored Poppy over him. He is currently being held in the labs. The prototype is the smartest experiment known to date.

Yarnaby is a children's toy manufactured by Playtime Co. In the 1970s, Playtime Co. participated in a wildlife conservation campaign. To raise awareness and support for the campaign, Playtime created and released the Yarnaby toy. Experiment 1166, created in 1990, dubbed its "Big Bodies" experiment, is home to Quinn Navidson, a young orphan manipulated by Dr. Harley Sawyer. Yarnaby is a lion-like creature with a mane and much of its pelt composed entirely of multicolored yarn, and no tail. Its muzzle and limbs are amber, with a black stripe/seam running vertically down its muzzle. On his head are two large, cartoonish white eyes with black, widened irises, a wide smile, and three triangular fangs protrude asymmetrically from his lower lip, giving him a goofy appearance. His face is split in half, revealing a large, open mouth. He is Harley Sawyer's personal bodyguard and answers only to him. He is strong and fast. He is playful, kind, has a heart of gold, and is obedient and agile.
Boxy Boo is a bright, colorful tumbler toy. The main body is a light blue square box with golden figurines on the sides: a star in front, a heart in the back, and two side lids with a circle on each. Above the right lid is a winding mechanism. The arms extend from the side lids, the legs from the bottom of the box, and the head from the top, which closes with a red lid with a yellow lining. Even though he's hidden in a box, his love knows no bounds. With his springy paws, small marble eyes, and cubic head that opens like a ring box, Boxy Boo is simply adorable and impossible not to fall in love with. Codenamed 1160, Boxy Boo was the first successful monster created by the Big Bodies Project and the first experiment in which the size of the test subject was not taken into account. He is a hunter, possessing speed and agility.

Huggy Waggie is a toy created and released by Playtime Co. in 1984. Like many other Playtime Co. characters, he was the prototype for a giant organism as part of the Bigger Bodies Initiative. This organism was created in 1990 under the designation Experiment 1170. The experiment served as a security guard at Playtime Co. and was often seen standing motionless in the factory lobby, raising his right arm in a gesture the company called the "Welcome Wave." Huggy Waggie was designed to hug children in need of affection and was depicted in warm colors.
Mommy Long Legs - In January 1991, an orphan named Marie Payne was selected as Experiment 1222, "Mommy Long Legs," to participate in the "Big Bodies" experiment. Despite her aggressive behavior toward faculty and staff, she showed maternal care for the other experiments, earning her the title of play station host. There, she became incredibly popular among the orphans, so much so that Playtime Co. created a toy like her and released it. She bends, stretches, and bends just the way you want! This little toy is so fun, you'll want to keep her close at all times.
Kissy Missy - known as Experiment 1172. Kissy Missy has exactly the same characteristics as Huggy Waggy, but she has pink fur, eyelashes, and a blue bow around her neck. Otherwise, Huggy and Kissy are identical and interchangeable during production. Kissy Missy is supposed to kiss children, so it's safe to assume her toy form represents love and kindness. In November 1990, a larger-than-life version of Kissy Missy, designated Experiment 1172, was created to calm Huggy Waggy, who often became aggressive in stressful situations.

Smiling Critters is a line of plush animals from Playtime Co., each with an enlarged mouth and a toothless smile. At some point, the Smiling Creatures became the main mascots of Playcare. In the 1990s, these characters were used as part of the Big Bodies Initiative. Elliot Ludwig was never satisfied with success alone – he always strived for more and better. Therefore, even when Huggy Wuggy became the favorite toy of the whole country, he was already planning the next novelty - "Smiling Animals". In addition, each smiling creature is capable of emitting its own unique scent through the hole in its mouth when pulled by its tail. All of these scents are traditionally used to enhance sleep or relaxation and are based on the scents of certain Miss Delight fruits, herbs or flowers
– in the 1990s, the innovation department created Miss Delight along with seven other identical dolls. They were sent to school to give the orphans living there a decent education. Each teacher taught a different subject from the Playtime curriculum; Miss Delight conducts anatomy. During their work, the teachers became close friends and considered themselves sisters. Miss Delight has golden hair, a crimson bow tie on top of her head, and a blush on her cheeks, a crimson skirt with playful polka dots, and a light blue jumpsuit with an apple symbol. The jumpsuit covers a yellow office shirt with short sleeves, a white collar and yellow sleeves with white cuffs, a radiant smile on her face, her shoes are covered in scarlet material and decorated with intricate blue embroidery. Her body consists of several segments connected to each other by hinges, like an articulated doll. Miss Delight is a very kind and gentle teacher who always speaks in a gentle voice. In an effort to share knowledge with kindergarten children, Ms. Delight encourages students to ask her and her sisters questions about topics
that interest them. Playcare also has a variety of human workers – educators, counselors, cooks, cleaners and engineers

Playcare is an underground space in Playtime Co. Upon entering, there is a staircase leading downwards, lined with a red carpet, small trees with red, yellow, and blue flowers, and red and yellow streetlights. Several cardboard cutouts of Bron and Banzo Bunny are on the stairs. A large, low column stands in the center of the play area. The bottom of the column is white, while the top is covered with foliage. A white fence with flower pots surrounds it. At the top of the column are statues of smiling animals holding hands. At the base of the column are podiums with descriptions of each smiling animal. At the front is a map of Playcare locations. At the top of the dome is a giant artificial skylight. The interior of the enormous dome is painted blue with clouds and trees, and when the lights go out, painted stars can be seen on the inside of the dome. Artificial clouds hang from the ceiling, and the grass is decorated with rocks, flowers, yellow tables, blue chairs, and tall trees. Playcare has five main locations throughout the neighborhood: the Psychologist's Office, the Toy Store, Home Sweet Home, the School, the Playhouse, and the Duck Pond. There's also a playground next to the school building.
Classified information: When the "Big Bodies" initiative was introduced, orphans began to be used as test subjects for experiments. The kindergarten has been in operation for many years, and during this time, some children have been adopted, while others have been selected to participate in the "Big Bodies" initiative.
The Psychologist's Office is a place in the kindergarten where children can seek advice if needed. It is intended for counselors working with adults and children.
The Toy Shop is one of the rooms in the kindergarten where children can buy toys. Lily Lovebraids lives there.
Home Sweet Home is where orphans sleep, and also CatNap's residence, where he uses red smoke to make the orphans sleep peacefully.
A school is a building that serves as an educational institution for orphans.

Leith Pierre, an amoral and arrogant businessman, was the head of innovation at Playtime Co. and the late Elliott Ludwig's successor as the company's chairman. In the public eye, Leith Pierre is portrayed as an inventive and proud man, dedicated to his craft and striving to bring joy to children around the world, just like his predecessor and clear idol, Elliott Ludwig. However, this is only a facade: in reality, Leith is a cruel and ruthless leader who doesn't hesitate to verbally abuse his employees, fire them if they become a burden, and runs the company with an iron fist.
Stella Graber - Hired by Playtime at an unknown time, Stella rose to senior positions at the Play Station and became the head of the daycare center. In these positions, she learned about the child experiments at the factory. Stella comes across as a very friendly and cheerful person, though not without her eccentricities. She would like to recapture the innocence of her childhood and contribute to the happy childhoods of other children. Despite her friendly and kind nature, it is worth noting that she was actively involved in the Large Bodies Initiative and was aware of its goals. However, unlike the other leaders, she regrets her participation in the experiments and does not display the same enthusiasm and pride as Harley and Leith. She justifies this by saying that, in her opinion, the scientific breakthroughs within the Initiative will save far more lives than those sacrificed.
Edward "Eddie" M.N. Ritterman is the enigmatic and reclusive head of Playtime Co.'s research department. He is known for his reclusiveness and is responsible for ensuring the shady dealings of Playtime Co. and management remain secret. Despite his professionalism and composure, Ritterman can be icy and ruthless. Surprisingly, despite his cold and ruthless sadism, Eddie is capable of caring. He genuinely cares for the scientists and the company's safety.

Seeking to make children happy, Elliott founded the American toy company Playtime Co. in 1930. He devoted every free minute to designing and creating toys, often working overtime. Despite his personal life suffering greatly, Elliott continued to realize his vision for the company. For 20 years, Playtime struggled to find its feet until Poppy Playtime was released in 1950. This new toy was modeled after his own daughter, Poppy. Apparently, Mr. Ludwig adopted her shortly after birth, and she was only one year old at the time of the toy's release. In the 1960s, Ludwig created the Young Geniuses program, which recruited talented children to help advance science into the future and find answers to unanswered questions. In 1976, he announced the opening of Playcare (Playtime Co.'s own orphanage on the factory grounds) and expressed the hope that it would enrich all who came there, as life without smiles and joy was meaningless. He himself adopted one of the orphans, a boy named Oliver. Oliver was to be used in an experiment to create a "Prototype," a test specimen for the next experiment—a living doll named Poppy Playtime, created from the body parts of Elliot's daughter, who had already died. After the Poppy experiment was created, Elliot placed the doll in a room just a few steps from his office at the factory. Elliot Ludwig died in 1989.
Elliot apparently had a deep affection for love, happiness, joy, and smiles, especially when it came to children. Elliot himself said, "There is nothing sweeter to my soul than to see a child smile." There is reason to believe he secretly harbored evil intentions and was the one who turned his adopted son, Oliver, into the Prototype. He did so out of pure grief, wanting to find a way to breathe life into an inanimate object so he could bring his daughter to life as a doll.

Playtime Co. is an American toy manufacturing company founded in 1930 by Elliott Ludwig.
The company was founded in 1930 with the goal of entertaining children around the world and became the most famous toy company of its time. The company's factory was built somewhere in Michigan. By the 1960s, the company and its toys had gained worldwide fame. Over the years, the company produced hundreds of toys, some of which became very popular. Of all the toys ever created by Playtime Co., the most popular and memorable was Huggy Waggie, released in 1984. After implementing the "Big Bodies" initiative, Playtime Co. began to use toys to their advantage, making them perform various tasks. For example, Huggy Waggie worked as a security guard at the factory, and Mommy Long Legs helped manage the play station. This helped Playtime Co. increase efficiency by not relying on people who needed to be paid, given breaks, and who might complain. However, people still made up the majority of the company's employees. Although at first glance, Playtime Co. While Playtime Co. was a highly successful corporation that created toys and brought joy to children around the world, each chapter and augmented reality reveals that the reality of Playtime Co. was anything but. The company, mired in internal problems, treated its employees horribly and disdainfully, even engaging in absurd and outright illegal behavior, and even engaged in illegal experiments creating living toys using orphans.
Although Playtime Co. claims to take safety very seriously, this is, to put it mildly, untrue. Furthermore, Playtime Co. has not hesitated to kill its employees to conceal secrets or get rid of undesirables, and has often concealed its ugly history from its employees.

The Big Bodies Initiative involved illegal and unethical human experimentation, primarily on orphans from a kindergarten. After Play Station scientists selected an orphan for the Big Bodies project, they would be euthanized at Home Sweet Home using Red Smoke and then transported to the lab along with a toy body, which would become their new body after surgery. Although the Initiative's true goal was to save Playtime from bankruptcy and lawsuits, many scientists believed that their research, if perfected, would help eradicate death and achieve immortality. This was their motivation.
Before the project's inception, Elliot Ludwig secretly experimented on animals, attempting to bring them back to life. However, over time, it became clear that animal experiments were ineffective, and the idea of ​​using humans emerged. Oliver, Elliot's adopted son, was the first successful human experiment, created by Elliot as a prototype for another experiment—1007, also known as "Poppy Playtime"—which, upon its creation, seemed perfect. After Elliot's death in 1989 and the discovery of the Prototype and Poppy in 1990, Leith Pierre hired Harley Sawyer, a neurosurgeon board-certified by the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, to assist him in the experiments.
After the "Big Bodies" initiative was approved, Playtime Co. hired Warrenbach Construction to build a play station to test their orphans, as their minds could easily be manipulated and turned into obedient workers. If the children performed well, they were sent back to the daycare, where they remained until they transformed into their assigned toy. At night, red smoke was released to put the children to sleep, allowing the scientists to carry out their duties and retrieve the children for experiments.

As a young man, Harley Sawyer joined the Young Genius program at Playtime Co. Despite his troubled family background, his personality and intelligence quickly caught the attention of Elliot Ludwig, who recognized the potential of greatness in the boy but was disappointed by his lack of humility. This led to Ludwig regretfully dismissing Sawyer from the program, which caused Sawyer to resent Ludwig. As an adult, Sawyer pursued neuroscience and earned a board certification from the American Board of Neurological Surgery, which allowed him to join Playtime Co.'s Special Projects department on January 15, 1990, working under Leith Pierre, where he quickly earned the nickname "Doctor." A couple of months earlier, Leith had learned of Poppy Playtime and Prototype's experiment, and after meeting them, Sawyer became obsessed with replicating Ludwig's discoveries. By then, the company was in dire financial straits and facing serious internal problems. Seeing this, Sawyer proposed the Big Bodies Initiative, an experimental program aimed at replacing employees with giant living toys to cut costs. The proposal was approved by higher-ups, and Harley Sawyer was promoted to Head of Special Projects. Soon after, the Initiative succeeded in creating a living being that continued to function for a period of time: Experiment 1160, Boxey Boo. Sawyer, flush with success, decided to tweak the experiment's subjects' appetites for human flesh to address potential leaks, as orphans from a kindergarten were used as test subjects. From that moment on, Sawyer immersed himself in experiments, focusing on the Prototype. Convinced that the experiment held some secret, Sawyer resorted to drastic measures to uncover it, even torturing the Prototype in hopes of uncovering new discoveries for his research.

Harley Sawyer was a cruel, merciless, narcissistic, indifferent, and amoral scientist with little regard for anyone or anything other than himself and his goals. As part of his "Large Bodies" initiative, Dr. Sawyer disfigured and mutilated countless orphans, turning them into living toys. Sawyer was apparently a troubled child even as a child, focused solely on himself and caring little for others. Although his "normal" demeanor was reserved and stoic, coupled with a soft voice and general politeness, this was only a weak façade. In reality, Sawyer was an angry, aggressive, and irritable individual who had difficulty tolerating anyone, even his colleagues, and often yelled at people when angered. This attitude made Sawyer widely disliked. His colleagues as a neurosurgeon considered him a weirdo because he constantly worried that something terrible was about to happen and was a perfectionist. At Playtime Co., none of the executives (Leith Pierre, Edward "Eddie" M.N. Ritterman, and Stella Graber) could tolerate his behavior for long. Furthermore, Sawyer was known for being picky—Sawyer detests pickles and insists that if they fulfill his order, they must not accept any pickles or they will be severely punished. Another side of Harley's personality emerged during his participation in the Young Genius program. He confided in Elliot Ludwig and explained that this was the only thing he ever wanted. Elliot noted that Harley didn't care about his peers and didn't seek to make friends. Because of his exclusion from the program, Harley had a nervous breakdown - he wrote that no one cared about him and no one understood him, although he himself had never been needed by anyone and had never tried to understand anyone - this is what turned Sawyer into a monster - although he always showed disturbing character traits, it was the exclusion that drove him over the edge, because in the past he had faced neglect and loneliness
