· Two years after the 'Joy of Errors' incident in 1995, a shocking event called the 'Great Toy War' occurred in 1997.
· The story of the currently ongoing Poppy Playtime series is based not on the 'Joy of Errors' but on this 'Great Toy War'.
· The letter that summoned the player to the factory is presumed to have been sent not by an employee, but by one of the experiments.

· After the 'Joy of Errors' incident, all experiments united around 'Prototype', but due to changes between 1995 and 1997, the experiments split into two factions centered around Poppy and Prototype.
· The exact reason for this division is unknown, but it's speculated to be due to the experiments' desire for freedom and Prototype's controlling nature.
· Since Prototype was the most powerful and dangerous entity, half of the experiments sided with Poppy out of fear, while the other half did so for true freedom.

· **Poppy's Team:** Miss T, Kissy Missy, Huggy Wuggy, Mommy Long Legs, Daddy Long Legs, CatNap, PJ Pug-a-Pillar, Bubba Bubba, CatNap, and most of the 'Smiling Critters' (excluding CatNap).
· **Prototype's Team:** Mommy Long Legs, Boxy Boo, some 'Smiling Critters' (including CatNap).
· **War Objectives:**
- Poppy's Team: To eliminate Prototype or destroy the factory itself (Poppy's ultimate plan).
- Prototype's Team: To eliminate the rebellious experiments and maintain control.

· The 'Great Toy War' lasted for 7 years (1997-2004), during which countless experiments were sacrificed.
· Many members of Poppy's team (Crafty Corn, Mommy Long Legs, etc.) died, and Daddy Long Legs was subjected to horrific torture, including having his legs severed by Prototype.
· CatNap served as Prototype's loyal subordinate, assisting in the surveillance and torture of Daddy Long Legs and other experiments.
· The war was not over when the player arrived at the factory, and Prototype was still searching for survivors.

· Amidst the horrors of war, the only sanctuary for the experiments was 'Safe Haven'.
· The drawings inside Safe Haven depict the war situation and the experiments' psychology.
- Poppy's cross mark: Hints at Poppy's situation when imprisoned by Prototype.
- The strength of Doi the Domo: Doi the Domo, made of clay, was so strong that it was unaffected by even iron weapons.
- The Doctor's observation: The Doctor watched everything through cameras throughout the war.
- Bron the Dinosaur: The existence of Bron the Dinosaur, who survived the war, is confirmed.

· **Poppy's Team Drawings:**
- Deceased members (marked with crosses): Piggy Piggy, Crafty Corn, Mommy Long Legs, etc.
- Surviving members: Miss T, Daddy Long Legs, Huggy Wuggy, etc.
· **Prototype's Team Drawings:**
- Mommy Long Legs, Boxy Boo (presumed deceased), CatNap, etc.
· **War Outcome:**
- Poppy's team suffered heavy losses and was on the verge of defeat.
- Some members of Prototype's team, including Boxy Boo, also died.
· **Final Survivors:** Only Daddy Long Legs and CatNap survived the horrors of the war.

· The 'Great Toy War' took place not only at the construction site but also in various locations such as 'No Man's Land'.
· The camps in No Man's Land were bunkers created by the experiments to fight each other, and countless experiments met their deaths here.
· The war reached its peak by 2001, by which time all the Smiling Critters were still alive.

· The player arrived at the factory in 2005, when Poppy's team was almost defeated and Prototype was on the verge of taking over the factory.
· The player's appearance was at an unexpected timing, but it could also be the trigger for falling into Prototype's trap.
· Prototype is still alive, has kidnapped Poppy again, and is threatening the player.
· The Doctor has also survived and is observing all the events of the war.

· The player has come to the factory not because of the 'Joy of Errors' incident, but because of the more horrific 'Great Toy War'.
· If a VHS tape about the 'Great Toy War' is released in Chapter 6, we will be able to vividly witness the desperate struggle of the experiments.
