Body Notes


The myriad of characters and forms in the game has caused many questions to arise as to the who and what everyone is.  In an attempt to clarify some of them, I’m making a page devoted to explaining the bodies that have been used so far and are used currently in the game.

(T) means that there is actually a corresponding Toy either exact or with diff colors/different ‘options’. (K) means that there is a kitbash somewhere.
