What If The Smiling Critters Was An Actual Toy Line In The Early 1980s? - [Poppy Playtime Concepts] 

I love the Picky Piggy design, since the bib design makes it look like a picnic blanket, which fits the theme as well.

If the Smiling Critters was an actual toy line in the 1980s then surely people will think that the CatNap Smoke was a legend.

On the topic of the Care Bears, another thing worth mentioning about them are the Care Bear Cousins. Basically, they are...well, cousins of the Care Bears. And they are all different animals that aren't bears. And I can't help but feel that some of the Smiling Critters are heavily inspired by them. For example, Hoppy Hopscotch. She is remarkably similar to a Care Bear Cousin named Swift Heart Rabbit. With them both being rabbits, of course, but also from them both having fairly energetic personalities. Another Critter likely being influenced by a Care Bear Cousin is Picky Piggy. She could likely be based off of Treat Heart Pig, as they are both Pigs who have a little knack for food. One more Critter I feel is inspired by the Care Bear Cousins is Bubba Bubbaphant. He Basically seems to be a combination of Lotsa Heart Elephant and Bright Heart Raccoon. With him having the species of Lotsa Heart, and the smart personality of Bright Heart. And we can't forget the actual bear of the group herself, Bobby Bearhug. The Care Bears she resembles the most to are Tenderheart Bear and Love-a-Lot Bear, two of the original ten Care Bears. They both have hearts for belly symbols, and they are both especially caring and compassionate, much like Bobby! So, yeah! Sorry if I went on for a while, I absolutely love the Care Bears and Care Bear Cousins with all my heart. And me being a Care Cears fan is the big reason on why I love the Smiling Critters.

If Mob Entrainment chose to make them realistic like those from the video, that would be an good potential to make the monster even scarier.

2:27 five nights at smiling critters REAL!

I’ve made my own SC au! It’s basically if the Smiling Critters and the Huggy Wuggy toy line swapped. All the Mini Huggies + Huggy + Kissy would swap roles with the Smiling Critters :)

Honestly The Smiling Critters did always give me the vibe of the Care Bear cousin which was a sister line to the original Care Bears featuring a variety of animals. They even have some species/gimmick overlap such as Swift Heart being a blue rabbit that runs fast and Treat Heart being a yellow pig associated with food. So yeah its cool an artist tried to make that a reality with these designs (even fixing the eyes because its sorta weird for a 80s toyline to have black eyes like that? It just wasn't really the aesthetic back then lol). My personal fav of the bunch is probably Dogday for no real specific reason its just very cute!

I love all the designs for Smiling Critters in this if they were an actual toy line. But when really thinking on the Smiling Critters inspiration for their creation in Poppy Playtime it wasn't just the Care Bears but rather the Care Bear Cousins since the Care Bear Cousins have different animals in the group that weren't just bears. As Hoppy Hopscotch has a striking resemblance to a Care Bear Cousin known as Swift Heart who is also a rabbit and an athletic type.

Tbh if they came out in real life a long time ago I think it be rare now!

These are probably my favorite redesigns. They actually look toy-like while keeping that creepy aura.

I gave my best friend in elementary school the nickname "carebear" (real name Caroline) because she was always friendly and sweet. I loved the care bears lol

As a Care bear and Smiling Critters enthusiast, these designs for the Smiling Critters crew looks so cool :0 They are so eerie looking but cute at the same time. I love them❤👍

The catnap hallucinations would be an urban legend

I’d love to have these in the actual game, it would be way more creepy with the monster forms and stuff.

this would actually make ALOT of sense because the SC remind me alot of the care bear's caring cousins which they could be the extended 2nd or 3rd cousins in a way. I really do love the art I hope mob entertainment works with the artist to release the versions that he drew as a special limited edition or halloween horror type of plushies that we could buy because that would be so cool

I love seeing him get the recognition that he deserves! Nicely made video. He's also on insta!

If this was a real show and had real toys I'd love the original design in the game. (I would watch every episode if this was a show)

Even though the critters canoncially came out in the 90s according to the official wiki for Poppy Playtime, these 80s inspired designs look fucking awesome. My favorite just might be Catnap or Bobby. I wish they kept the black eyes though.

Kids: I want Smiling Critters! Mom: We have Smiling Critters at Home *Pans to Care Bears* XD That image of 80s DogDay makes me want him more!! So um, Care Bear belly badges were kinda like My Little Pony Cutie Marks in that they could represent what that Bear or Cousin(you know the other animals who weren't bears) was special at but more often than not they were part of their names. The pale orange one with the two flowers was Friend Bear, the one you showed with the two hearts I believe was Love A Lot Bear and the one with the cupcake with the candle was Birthday Bear. Birthday Bear loved birthdays, Friendship Bear loved spreading friendship, you get the picture. Famous one is Grumpy Bear who had the raincloud because he was just grumpy. He didn't spread grumpiness, instead he knew what it was like to have a rain cloud over your head a lot and could relate to people and help them through it. Just a little Care Bear knowledge for your day that you probably didn't care to know XD

5:35 this is over the halfway mark

Lightning, when all Smiling Crits plushies come out, which do you think will end up being your favorite taking a wild guess?

Loved the video you were really cooking whith this one ❤

so... my favorite dog day :) of course and I can't wait to get my official plush!

2:41 her name is Helen Henny She’s my favorite along with Jasper T Jowls Because i love dogs

Your right the old chuck E cheese give scary vibes, especially when you see them without there suits on.

Ideas like this are crazy

:) nice video! ❤❤

Wow thesw designs are amazing this video idea was a good one

The 1980s designs are so much cuter.❤

2:26 five nights at the critters

0:51 the smiling critters actually look really good like that

Seeing them crawling around would be soooo cool. would love see huggy wuggy and mommy long legs!!!

Does Lightning gotta make so many theories on the smiling critters? I feel like he has like so many questions on making these theory vids and he probably has theory time. I think he has a bunch of questions of these critters. Tbh these look like these would be real plushies and the pictures of 1980s plushies look like a sketch for it. It would be cool if these could be real, I mean it looks really good and the thing that it looks vintage as if it was a real plushie.

I like the original, smiling, critter designs🐘🦄🐻🐤🐷🐰🐶🐱

Dogday is my favourite out of the bunch

They look realistic

Hi, my dogday has been shipped Yipee Yipee Yipee!!!!! :DDDDDD

I'll be totally honest here, these designs make me feel viscerally uncomfortable. Don't get me wrong, they're designed really well, but if they suddenly popped up on TV back in 2008 or something I bet I would've started crying out of fear on the spot. They're actually horrifying lol.

Hi it’s lightning! I loved this video! I just finished 6th grade today!

I love these designs!

Any new news on your official bobby bearhug and bubba bubbaphant plushies?

There was a monster catnap with care bears design

The 1980s designs if the toy line was actually created looks similar to battingtons designs

0:14 actually it is just for the wiki, Crossovia (Not Hating)

The amount of ships there’s gonna be with these designs💀💀💀

It was awesome

If you don’t know, what’s my favorite it’s and it’s still catnap

Would you ever think the smiling critters were being in the 2030 What would they look like? This is actually four hours before my time is up to question

They look like five nights at Freddy's 1980s animatronics

I actually thought The Smiling Critters came out in the 1990s! Whatever.....

When do you think craftycorn will Come out

Kickinchicken looks like guy fierri

Do what if indigo park was in the early 1980

Nah, basing a 9 and a half minute long video on a random piece of fan art is crazy 💀💀💀💀 It’s Lightning is really milking the Smiling Critters trend dry… Even the subscriber and view counts of his channel show people are sick of this

...what do the monsters look like...? 😨
