I DONT CARE IF SECRET OF THE MIMIC JUST CAME OUT IM MAKING FOUND FAMILY OF THE MCM BOTS AND MURRAY FAMILY!!!!!

+ Arnold

Okay so to start off NOBODY ACTUALLY SEES EACHOTHER AS FAMILY they just act like one

Edwin: made them all, considered the uncle, he is heavily anxious about his family

Fiona: wife of Edwin, lives in this au, aunty, loves puppets so much she made Foxy and the crew

David: cool ass cousin, also living, owns a tiny minigun with rubber bullets

Mimic: weird emo cousin that in fact will read you a bedtime story

Digityper: the anxious uncle, Jackie's brother due to them being made on the same day, will cry if given affection

Jackie: crazy wine aunt, Digi's sister as stated above, will hug.

Big Top: scary spider adopted grandpa to the youngins (he's only 10 years older then the rest of the bots)

Clean-O-Vac(s): 800 of these little cuties, only one girl out of them all, Big Top's children.

Sleepy/Storytime Moon: insane father figure who will 100% sing you a lullaby to help you sleep and bring you cookies to snack on.

Arnold: Abandoned Fazbear before everything went to hell, prevented the fall of MCM and stopped Fiona's death.

Mr. Helpful: not helpful at all father figure, stutters and hesitates a lot, screams like a girl

Mrs. Helpful: surprisingly helpful despite her idiotic husband, motherly, can breakdance, eats raw ginger on Tuesdays

Dollie: random lady who joined the family for saving one of them, nurses vibes, smells like hand sanitizer and oil, clean freak.

Mycelium Men: yes these idiots count too, they're the four fresh out of jail uncles, love music, would kill for some beef jerky.

SOTM Digi-Typer photos

Credit to: ☕️Mr. DaBois Official☕️ YT on sketchfab for porting these models! I decided to take pics of the rest of the characters (also apologies for doing these 1 character at a time, for some reason it’s not letting me put more than 10 pictures)

Finding out that cute Mailbot is actually the Digi-Typer has changed my opinion of him drastically. The Digi-Typer is meant to replace human workers altogether, and Edwin Murray was actively trying to sell them to businesses... kind of like how modern businesses are currently pushing generative AI.

... SO. Seeing what happens to the Digi-Typer in the game made me laugh hysterically. Get WRECKED!

FGC #670 Hi-Fi Rush

Do you ever get the feeling you’re playing a particular videogame ’cause you’re supposed to? Hi-Fi Rush will get a pass Hi-Fi Rush was released on January 25, 2023. It was a “stealth release”, which means that it had all the advertising and “hype” you would ever expect from a videogame launch, but had no previews or publicity before it was available. Neat! And that was probably a good idea for…

[grumbobulon]

Meet Vivi! (they/them) They're my robo-sona and their town's local sweetheart mailbot! I recently redid their model in a higher resolution and came out super happy with it! Here's some gifs of them :-)

[lovckett]

disclaimer mailbot orion idea originally belongs to anon ..... i feel like im crazy each time i mention them because anon could be ANYONE but like i feel bad if i dont mention it wasn't my idea

[babblable]

Dammit now I'm rotating their personality and shit, help-

Mail Carrier Optiratch Fankid Thoughts:

-Takes their job Very Seriously. Perhaps too seriously sometimes

-Very much so has Optimus' Sweetsparked Optics that could let them get away with murder

-Consequentially also has his devastating Disappointment Face

-Mostly well mannered, soft-spoken, anxious, sweet and patient, but *can* get irritable and when they are- that intake needs soap and everyone else needs coolant from overhearing the colorful language leaving their intake

-Tired(TM)

-Petty. Will intentionally become slow as frag and clumsy if upset with someone and smile while playing stupid as if it was all an accident.

-Delivers mail to ALL bots, regardless of faction or lack thereof. Yes, absolutely has delivered their Carriers angry hate letters to Megatron. Megatron tips them usually with an energon goodie.

-Will *NOT* consume anything given to them by anybot while working, regardless of faction or relationship.

-Scans every package/letter given to them regardless of faction. Has absolutely handed back letters or packages with bombs in them and slapped the bot with the punishment of refusing services for a decade. Yes, they have done this to their Sire, Ratchet. Yes, They Will Do It Again.

-"Please don't shoot me, I'm *just* the mailbot..."

-"..... Yeah, you called the wrong bot. My job is to deliver *boxes*, not sparklings. No, I do not find this funny.. Let me call my Sire, *Please.*.."

-Is most at peace organizing letters and stamping paperwork. Fucking loves it, honestly. Love's their job!

-Will drive through a hailstorm, hurricane, tsunami, wormhole, etc to get their job done

[universe-prime]

Are you in need of transport A.S.A.P?

Looking to deliver some goods across Cybertron faster than a turbo-fox chasing its own tail?

Tired of having to keep track of overbearing passports just for a single ride to the nearest colony??

Well look no further than Cybertron's finest—

The mighty Click-Clack and Co.~!!

I've been thrown back into my transformers love HARD and decided to revamp/create a bunch of ocs to cope with it lmao. Anyway, meet Click-Clack and(a small part) of his dandy crew~! Click-Clack(or just Clacker for short) specializes in delivering all manner of goods and services across the vast expanse of Cybertron in just a few days time. Whether it be weapons, medical supplies, building materials, or simply an independent company needing help traveling from point A to B, he doesn't really discriminate and just LOVES doing his duty as a gigantic mailman train

To really put Clacker into perspective, I put him beside a few iconic bots from tfa...👀💦

And as an added fun bonus, I even made a map of his internal layout when he's in train mode(which is pretty much his default tbh)

But what's a train without his helpful crew, ey? This is only a small part of it, my pal @simplych4i has ocs that cover a good majority, but I can at least give a quick overview on my own fellas!!

Needlepoint

The one and only medic! If there's an incident or injury, she'll take care of you with a patient servo and a caring spark

She was assigned to Clacker due to a recent scandal that ruined her career. Her patients mysteriously wound up dead or missing memories while under her care, and enough of these reports piled up to the point where her license was revoked and no respectful hospital would ever hire her again

Overall she's a doting maternal figure to the crew and, although a bit quiet and reserved, she's always happy to lend a shoulder to cry on or a listening audial fin

Rocket

Self proclaimed demolitions expert and part-time mechanic! Should the train ever be attacked by Decepticon's raiding it for it's cargo, or any other outside threat, she's there on the front lines ready to blast them back to the hole they crawled out of

Former Elite Guard, Rocket was quickly demoted and shunned from her station due to her "sudden" fatuation with explosives and anything that could cause them. After a near-death experience that nearly extinguished her spark, she went off on a personal mission to recreate the enlightening blast that started it all in the hopes of "seeing home" once again....whatever that means

Nowadays, Rocket is just as explosive as her passion. Loud-mouthed and unafraid to speak her mind, she's always ready to slam a fist into anyone who crosses her path while also gleefully spreading a few headaches across her fellow crewmates

Tag

And lastly, our head of navigation! Despite their age, Tag has a natural gift for plotting out routes, understanding complicated maps, and making sure that there's always a backup route should the current one ever be interrupted

(Former)delivery mailbot by day, graffiti street artist by night, Tag often explored the seediest parts of Cybertron along their route and saw injustice firsthand. Using their artistic talent and the access they had to private letters, they'd anonymously paint rebellious ideology and personal defamation against elites as a way of speaking out. Tag's artistic trail was eventually traced back to them, and they were swiftly demoted to a spot on the Click-Clack

Tag is overall what you might expect from a young bot who was practically raised in the underbelly of Cybertron. Cute and sweet one minute, then cutthroat and petty the next, Tag is just a bundle of energy constantly looking to prove themself alongside the much older "adult" bots of the crew they're with. They can't quite grasp why everyone insists on protecting them so much(they're a fully grown bot for crying out loud!), but slowly Tag has learned to accept this ragtag group of weirdos and ex-convicts as their true family

[the-ooftroop]

since your twitter account seems to not exist can we get a repost of the mailbot drawing from SOTM pretty please

oh yeah!! sure!

as soon as that godawful block removal and forced ai agreement was announced I dropped twitter as soon as I got comfortable on bluesky... if there's anything else I posted there that i havent reposted elsewhere feel free to ask!

anyway, for context, I drew this immediately after my third look at the Secret of the Mimic demo cus I really liked the Mailbot from it. This was a rough sketch I did from memory so it's definitely not fully accurate, but for now I think this is the best we've got!

[superbbirdofparadise]

Earlier, I watched the first hour of the first video of Ranboo's Secret of the Mimic playthrough (at least I'm assuming there will be more videos; I'm pretty sure the game takes more than 4 hours to beat). Without spoilers, the game is very good so far. I want to watch more of it, but my sister (who's watching it with me) has other plans for tonight, and even if we finished that video, I have no idea how long it'll be until Ranboo uploads the rest of the playthrough, so now I'm desperately trying not to get too spoiled for the rest of the game. I've already seen a few small spoilers, but fortunately I haven't seen any major plot points.

Spoiler-ridden thoughts below the cut.

Arnold is great, we love him. Poor guy should've passed out from exhaustion by now, but he just keeps trucking. I hope he survives the game and finds a different job.

The dispatcher guy is a horrible person, but a fun character.

Murray's Costume Manor is BEAUTIFUL!!! I'm not sure why there's a playground outside, though.

The welcome show! Oh, I love it! It was so fun and colorful, and that octopus reminded me of the one from Journey of the Little Mermaid. Mr. and Mrs. Helpful are now my favorite canon FNAF ship.

The safe rooms(?) are fun. I like everything that happens in there. I wonder how complex those upgrade minigames are going to get?

The Mimic's introduction was great! The way they had suspicious suits flanking the walkway, but then a completely different one burst out of that box? Fantastic.

The inventory system is fun, and I like how the amount of collectables you have determines your progress in Moon.exe.

Speaking of, what is going on with that game? A kid escaping through his bedroom window reminds me of Michael Afton, but I could also see it being Gregory according to Candy Cadet's story in Ruin, Bonnie Bro because of the purple mask, or David Murray because of where we are. Also, why Moon built like that?

What is parachute.exe? Going off of the name, probably some kind of failsafe, but what does it do?

The mice :)

JACKIE IS HUUUUUGE!!! Hooo my goodness, why did they make that?

The chase scene was awesome! The way she rips herself apart in desperation to reach you in the beginning? Insane. Rip Mailbot or whatever his name is (I'm not looking it up right now because I'm afraid of spoilers). Jackie's playful tone, as if this is a game, mixed with her tearing down walkways is a wonderfully fear-inducing dissonance. And that one part in that hallway where she reaches past you to pull herself forward? I don't know if that was her missing her target, or if she thinks that grabbing you when you're that far away would be "cheating," but either way it worked for me.

We stopped watching pretty soon after he watched the welcome show a second time, and I don't remember much of what happened in the next room, but I'm excited to continue watching tomorrow!

Theory time: Some people have said that Jackie is the Mimic, but I don't think that's the case, mainly because 1. She was stuck in her box when we found her (why would Mimic trap itself in there?) 2. She damaged herself right before the chase scene (why would Mimic be attached to the box, and unable to attach itself easily?) and 3. She's extremely chatty, while none of the Mimic costumes have had voicelines.

Instead, I think that Jackie is a security bot, because she shares characteristics with the Puppet, who we know was made for security purposes (has a box, long limbs, and the Puppet's song even plays at the end of her chase scene if I remember correctly), and with Moon, who has been theorized/headcanoned to be a security bot by multiple people (segmented fingers in Moon's colors, similar-looking voicebox, playful even while "hunting," clown aesthetic closely related to jester aesthetic).

I can't wait to see how wrong I am lol.

[askthechronoverse]

lucyyyyyyy hows the postcard investigation going

Not great. I talked to Batman and Gandalf. They got postcards as well. The Octan mailbots keep intercepting letters to that Orion kid, too. Doom keeps acting innocent about the whole thing.

[blood-and-pizza]

I'm not the only one who thinks this mail robot from the Secret of the Mimic trailer is kinda cute in a dorky way, am I?

I like his smile. I like his eyebrows. I like his little mailbox flag thing! I love how old-fashioned he looks... he's adorable! <3

EDIT: According to a recreation someone made of the Secret of the Mimic demo, this guy is named Mailbot. Yeah, makes sense. He's so cute!

[springtrappd]

being forcibly subject to sotm marketing against my will (via my bsky feed) (shakes fist), so: what do we wanna bet that the mailbot guy is going to be a subset of the mimic in some way & that was why glitchtrap was able to infect the staffbots

[kazel-04]

Being a small mailbot doesn't mean not having big crushes
