The wierd thing about modern FNaF theorizing is that instead of proving why their theory is correct, people mostly seem to just state reasons why the other theories have so many problems, while most of the problems themselves only exist to explain their own theory. But thankfully I feel like this period of stagnation in the FNaF theorizing community is finally starting to end, as there are people (like you), who are not afraid to think or look at the pieces of evidence from different angles. Although I'm not sure yet if I believe your theory (not saying I believe MoltenMCI), I will have to say, that it is nice to have something different to think about every once and a while.

[@stiw91]

Yeah, it's like after a theory becomes well-liked or popular enough people start treating it like canon, disregarding any other interpretation, even though looking at things from every angle is what making theories is all about. MoltenMCI is a perfect example of this, despite being a good theory, people ignore any, and all of its problems because they like it. Some goes with MatPat being weirdly adamant about someone being a robot, almost all of his SB theories include robot people, ignoring any explanations without them.

[@ZirconiaGacha]

Yeah. It''s FNaF for crying out loud, there's red herrings and even plotholes in places! Sometimes buildups lead nowhere and all the clues for something go to complete waste as a different idea is made canon. The way FNaF is going, I can see where people who believe MikeVictim/MikeBot are coming from: don't just look at all the clues for the theories, also look at where exactly the plot seems to be going as a trend.

[@elliotnutella8044]

Added detail for RockstarMCI: the Rockstar animatronics all have 1 risk, while no other animatronic in Pizzeria Simulator has risk other than Ned-Bear and Lefty if you count him separately. This suggests there's something about them that is inherently dangerous.

I've been mulling this theory over and I came up with a possible modification: LEFTE MCI. What if Henry did rebuild the originals into the rockstars, but extracted all their remnant and put it into LEFTE. This solves a few issues for me. 1. It helps explain something that's always bugged me about the candy cadet stories: The person stitching 5 things into one thing is always the protagonist, not the killer. 2. It removes the 'you don't have to buy them' issue people have mentioned. 3. It works alongside the Molten DCI, meaning you have all 10 murdered kids in those two bodies. As for why he would do this, I think it would be to help lure the puppet out of hiding. After all, Charlie and the original MCI kids have a very clear affinity for one another. Anywhere they go, she will go as well, trying to put them to rest. So she would recognize their souls/remnant whatever as being in this new animatronic, let her guard down to approach it, and then it does the whole Encapsulate Fuse Transport and Extract part of it's name. Still not sure if Golden Freddy is involved in anyway, but I thought this might be a thing.

[@sleepylmguy9968]

That is actually a REALLY good theory I’m ngl to you. I can get behind that. I actually did put a comment in his last video that Left could have been made of Golden Freddy parts. And Your theory works with it!

Also, one of Rockstar Bonnie's voice lines from UCN is "So good to see you AGAIN, my truest friend, etc." so i suppose it could imply that he is in fact made from the OG Bonnie's parts....or maybe im just overthinking it and this line doesnt matter at all-

[@raxu8131]

If im going that deep into it i might as well mention Rockstar Chica's line: "That'll teach ya for tryna trick this OLD bird" which doesnt make much sense if you ask me, since she comes from the newest roster of animatronics up to UCN, that being the Rockstars of course, so i guess this too can be used to back up this theory??

2:37 I don’t think Possessed is the right word, but moreso the funtimes contain souls rather than said souls controlling the robots, I think there’s a differences. I feel William wouldn’t be stupid enough to make sure that the robots that he created to explicitly kill kids don’t have said kids controlling his robots, to kill him, I think this is confirmed with Baby explicitly being baby in all of her dialogue (You can argue that “I will make you proud Daddy” is Elizabeth, but even then most of the Dialogue shows that it’s baby talking not her.) But you do bring up a good point of Baby (Not Elizabeth, Baby herself) being a twisted mirror of Charlie, like that’s something I never would’ve thought about before you said it.

[@quesproductions7170]

But how would he make sure that the robots didn't get the souls? Stuffed, touched, alive, dead, if there is a human near an animatronic they WILL posses it when that last breath is taken. Balora and Funtime Foxy can't even kill yet they are also possessed...no one talks about that. Heck, GlamMike is off the basis that Freddy went down into the pit (we don't know how far down, but let's say it was where the voice line triggers) and POSSIBLY got possessed there. I dont think William Afton can control that, nor make sure it doesn't take place.

0:04 I want to say something in favor of this theory regarding the purchase of the rockstars, while the rockstars arent necessary to be purchased to get the true ending there are drawings of the rockstars in the office which implies someone (I guess kids since its usually kid's drawings in FNAF's offices) have seen the rockstars. They're also kind of the face of the game in the menu And if anyone was to wonder why they dont attack like Lefty, Molten and the others, well maybe they're parts were took back from the FNAF 3 fire and didnt have much remnant left or theres need for an external force (The Puppet) to make them come to life, either way this could also refer to Henry wondering if the souls are aware This comment became longer then i originally planned lol, anyway good video 👍

Another bit of info showing that the rockstars are made by Henry is Matpat's recent theory on how we can tell if Henry or Afton made them. The rockstars have the seperate jaws.

Sister Location being Parallel is a perfect way to frame where that game fits in the story. I think the name choice was very intentional, on multiple levels; it's a "sister" or something along side other events, other places, other games. It does not have it's own unique spot in the timeline made for it; it's concurrent with other things happening. It's title isn't even a numbered entry of the series; I would argue that Sister Location and FNAF World not sharing naming conventions is suppose to be a huge tell in how they relate to all of the other games in the "mainline series". This continues to fit in with how a lot of the mysteries in FNAF seem to be written and presented; there are very intentional reasons behind whenever something breaks a convention; that's a clear "tell" that you should pick out that detail and consider it a direct indication of something important worth understanding.

[@sofiadragon6520]

I agree. Sister location was likely operating alongside the restaurants. This let them make more money hosting parties at people's homes instead of buying new premises in that market. A new location requires buildout, marketing, developing a local customer base... the rental service is a much better way to enter a new area and convert the guests of that party to brand loyal customers. I'd say the TV shows and other nationally available merchandise would come after they became even bigger. It is really hard to judge how long certain things were in use/popular. All the buildings look run down during gameplay, well after their hayday, but the stories of the kids' deaths are all during the bright, happy height of Fazbear popularity. Each time a rash of disappearances or deaths happened there was a dip, first for one location and later for the brand, and then it comes back in a revival of the brand.

[@YellowSkarmory]

Pizza Sim is also unnumbered, when it's pretty clearly set shortly after FNAF 3 and before UCN/VR/AR/SB, aka with a unique spot and not concurrent with any other games. The connections to the "sister" in the name are nice, but I'm not convinced those are intentional lore pieces, when the "sister" part of the name has other explanations (namely, Baby). Still easily could be true, but I wanted to point that out.

I thought that fnaf theorists were being dramatic when talking about how aggressive their comment section is. Then I made a small comment on twitter about how Mangle could be a disassembled version of Funtime Foxy (MISTAKE) Personally, you've convinced me with Rockstar MCI. I feel like the biggest issue I've had with every theory is the idea of soul-splitting, that's SO narratively unsatisfying. Gonna make a timeline video, and your takes on more popular theories are super helpful. I can't believe your channel doesn't have more subs, great videos dude, keep it up :)

[@minerturtle45]

i also think RockstarMCI helps explain why Lefty is styled after the Rockstars.

[@mareklisowski6869]

After the events of the FNAF3 minigames the saferooms are sealed and a tape is made about them being sealed. The restaurant has to be operational at that point, otherwise there would be no need to make the tape. But if the pizzeria is operational, then all the minigames have to happen in one night, otherwise someone would have discovered the dismantled animatronics. If all of them happen in one night, then there is no time for William to take the parts, melt them down and inject them into the funtimes. So molten MCI makes no sense. Molten DCI gives William a reason to go to the pizzeria: he needs more remnant. I like Rockstar MCI. It's more believable then molten MCI. Obviously it has its issues. Another one is the rusted Foxy torso in SB. Side note: a lot of theories say that Henry (or sometimes William) opens the FNAF2 location, but in FNAF2 we hear "Uh, we're gonna try to contact the original restaurant owner. Uh, I think the name of the place was... 'Fredbear's Family Diner' or something like that. It was closed for years, though, I doubt we'll be able to track anybody down.".

[@monerb7185]

Honestly I like this theory it’s a nice and clean explanation (something that is always welcome in fnaf theory’s) it also fixes one big issue I have with molten mci which is why even do the rental service if the funtimes already have the mci spirits in them and about what happened to golden Freddy I feel Henry just made lefty with golden Freddy’s parts and having 3 powerful spirits just made it go berserk and that’s why It’s dangerous it also makes the whole Afton family be there to be burned William ballora as a representation of mrs Afton Elizabeth crying child and mike Also legally it makes sense that henry made the rockstars cuz he owns their copyright

[@amel888]

Your other video was already good but hearing you expand upon it in this one is amazing. I can't properly explain just how happy I am to see people actually creating their own theories and looking at stuff differently because there's so much people take as canon when we really don't have all that much info and things could really be taken differently. It felt like fnaf was in such a stagnant place where there was just one theory for so long and that was it so I'm so glad to see new theories not just for the current games but for old stuff too because I really love the older games and enjoy seeing new theories about them

[@porcelainchips6061]

DCI is something. Why have two sets of murdered children in a story, unless you need two sets? I write, a lot, and one of the many aspects of fiction most writers will tell you is that any plot point that can be used to solve/cause multiple aspects of a story is always important to use, instead of creating multiple new but highly similar events. In the real world, there are redundant events that occur all the time, but in writing it's highly suggested to be avoided, because everything being too coincidental is seen as less annoying to readers then making them keep track of multiple, similar but not the same events. MCI is first, DCI is second. I think one way to solve them is to ask what MCI does not cover, thus legitimizing the need for DCI to have happened. I am not arguing Scott is a writing genius; these techniques/choices in writing are things you quickly discover while telling a third party your story. So how can we divide up the events in the game to show it would be useful for two events in which several children are yeeted at the same time? One hint I think is important to consider is the implied visual that DCI is an open crime scene. The killer in DCI does not care about keeping a secret anymore, where as MCI may imply the killer in that situation wants to conceal it. The acronyms kinda cover this; MCI is about "missing" children never found, DCI is about kids that clearly had never been missing. Perhaps one way to figure it out is to identify when William might have "run out" of "material" and would be in need of collecting more? Is there a point in the timeline where we can't say there is "unused" remnant vs. when it's all accounted for?

[@gray1013]

What does MCI and DCI stand for? I’m a little lost 😅

[@piratebones9641]

If we were to put Sister Location before the 2 game (maybe by literal days) then DCI would be because William has no more Remnant as it was injected into Michael when he got Scooped, then he (Michael as Fritz) arrives just when the dayshift position (possibly William with an alias) get available just late of finding his father

This incident is shown in FNAF 2's SAVE THEM minigame where we see at least 5 dead kids scattered around the FNAF 2's location also killed Afton.

One mini theory from awhile back that I'm not going to get into detail with right now (maybe at some point in the future) is that Funtime Foxy has a decent chance of being the voice of ‘Circus Baby’ in night 4 of FNaF SL. It has some interesting implications to it.

[@saeklin]

1. Rockstar Lefty is possessed by Puppet/Charlie, that's obvious. 2. Rockstars Freddy, Chica, Bonnie, Foxy are repaired Classics and contain the respective MCI souls. Cupcake (Susie's dog) was remade into Me Bird. The MCI souls were still with their respective shells in FNAF3 and Henry presumably recovered everything. 3. Molten Freddy = Golden Freddy and countless anonymous souls. It's reasonable to assume that Baby or Ennard grabbed that Plush Fredbear practically bursting with soul energy.

[@damian1png363]

the thing about henry keeping the rockstars off screen makes more sense if instead of that he kept the parts of the fnaf 1 animatronics somewhere to reuse them to build the rockstars, something like how the withereds are kept in the fnaf 2 location

[@Yowax]

I believe in MoltenMCI and "RockstarDCI". For me at least, I think it makes sense that the MCI kids possess the endoskeletons because they were inside the suits, while the DCI kids possess the suits, because their bodies were outside the animatronics. Then after FNAF 1 William takes the endoskeletons from the originals and puts the remnant into the funtimes, I guess Henry would come back to seal the safe room and take the suits and then with those parts and whatever is left from the FNAF 3 fire he makes the Rockstars. It has its flaws, but I think it's at least an interesting concept.

[@nadie887]

1. The problem is, if Henry had the rockstars in the pizzeria we wouldn't have to buy them. 2. No one said the funtimes were made to get remnant JUST FOR THEM. They can also gather it for William. Why would they have that design in the first place if it would only serve to be used 1 time? Because it is not just for them. But either way, what other explanation is there to explain the fact that the souls are literally being used? 3. Well, no. Henry didn't specify if they were still trapped in the prisons of his making. He said "souls trapped" and that can be used to say "souls that were trapped" not necessarily "are". And again, he later says they are NOW being set to new purpose and used in ways he can't imagine. How could they still be in HIS machines if they are being used? 4. Just remember: "being USED in ways he never thought imaginable" 5. I disagree that the funtimes having random kids' souls is a better narrative than them having the MCI souls. Them having the MCI (+CC) souls literally makes all of the important characters of the lore being in 1 place in fnaf 6. All of them. 6. The phrase "how many times they burn us" in my opinion doesn't necessarily imply Cassidy has been burned multiple times, but sure, if we count, it would be: their souls in Mike in fnaf 3's fire, then fnaf 6, and also when their soul was melted down with the others to inject them into the funtimes. That's enough times. 7. Yes, it IS weird phrasing but still, "developed from" can STILL be talking about the design, it's true they could have straight up said "inspired from the design" but that same way they could have said "made out of". 8. MoltenDCI is a better way to explain it, but I believe it's just the same as MoltenMCI. It really only changes the exact way the souls were melted, but still, all of the evidence works the same way. 9. But I do believe that RockstarMCI makes less sense than MoltenMCI.

[@edenengland1883]

ah yes because it would be totally unrealistic for someone to utilize a rare advanced resource to collect more of said resource, doing something like actually effectively utilizing what you have to obtain more of it instead of burning through what little you have is an entirely unprecedented concept Funtime MCI is almost certainly untrue for other reasons, but you desperately need to work on your debunking capabilities also, depending on where in the story SL takes place, it would be theoretically possible for William to collect the scrap parts from Fazbear's Frights given he was already trying to collect the FNAF1 parts for something, its *very unlikely* that SL takes place *that* late but it is theoretically possible

[@siresquawks]

That area was actually subject to editing hell. I cut it down because the follow up lines had bad tales and were just very slow and clunky. The other reason this interpretation can’t happen, is because William’s alive when Baby’s Pizzaworld opens, but theoretically already got the remnant from the classics, when he dies shortly after doing so, unless night 5’s minigame is several months or something later.

[@monkeyplayz1835]

I agree with you on the first point, that yes William harvests the remnant manually first and then uses it to power the funtimes to help him collect remnant more efficiently. The second point is how could William collect the remnant while he is inside springtrap ?

i have also theorised that the toy animatronics were also possesed and were the ones melted down to become the funtimes/molten freddy which solves 3 major plot holes 1. what happened to the toys after fnaf 2 (other then having their heads removed for fnaf 3) 2. what happened to the extra bodies (in the fnaf 2 mini game save them we play as Freddy but if you look around you can just see 5 dead kids which are NOT the classic (withered) animatronics due to the fact that the missing kids kids would already be in the animatronics due to William stuffing them in the suits and the toys being on stage) 3. why the toy animatronics go berzerk after night 3 but before night 4 as thats when william killed the DKI (the dead kids incident because the bodies are just out in the open so they aren't "missing") which this is also likely the case due to the fact that the original MCI kids moved on after fnaf 3 (except golden freddy) due to the events of the secret minigames and fnaf world clock ending (which is just the fnaf 3 mini games just done in the MCI/DKI/puppet/gold/bite victim perspective) but if the DKI was melted down into molten freddy then what explains the rockstar animatronics (mainly the bonnie evidence you pointed out), simple the toy animatronics were made using possessed parts of the classic animatonics which parts of the toys were used in the refurbished (fnaf 1) animatronics (explaining their more erratic behavours with foxy running at a bajillion miles and hour and bonnie seemingly just teleporting) and the other parts melted down in secret to create the funtimes which splits the reminant between fnaf 1s refurbished animatronics (where the MCI and DKI are combined) the fun times (with the melted down parts) and the remaining parts (if there is any) seemingly scrapped or put into the rockstars years later (they use fnaf 1 endos so that wont surprise me)

[@shrekthe1ste792]

Narratively puzzling or not, it's still what's told to us. It's explicitly stated the mci kids were put into the funtimes and set to a purpose of killing kids. That's so incredibly on the nose. Why? To get even more remnant. He didn't just want remnant for the funtimes, and the truth is we don't know the full reason he even wants it, or if he just takes satisfaction in pain. It's just told to us explicitly. Henry says "trapped in prisons of my making, NOW set to new purpose." They were trapped in prisons of his making, but then they were given a new purpose. That's so obvious and I'm just so confused by your weird logic when it comes to wording. I don't mean any of this as an insult it just feels so, weird? Henry is talking about the spirits themselves when he says "and used in ways I never thought imaginable" NOT the animatronics. The souls weren't used by anyone if that line is referring to the classic animatronics hunting people down, it does make sense when you consider the souls were USED to power the funtimes. And no, for the last time, the endo parts weren't stolen to literally make the funtime parts. He took the remnant from their suits in the fnaf 3 minigames and injected it into the funtimes. He didn't literally make the funtime endoskeletons out of the fnaf 1 endoskeletons. He just took the remnant from them and injected it into the already existing funtimes. Molten freddy is also MOLTEN because he was burnt at some point. Which ties in with the "no matter how many times they burned us" The gravestone ending was just meant to hide golden freddy's name. Pretty obvious from the logbook. When did Scott say unreleased info was canon? I do agree with some of your non molten mci points though. Like the funtime springlock suit being used by William is interesting, baby being the reverse Charlie is something I wish more people brought up, and glitchtrap manipulating history to rewrite Henry's role completely out is a good idea. One thing that could work is that we know William didn't use all the remnant of the ogs in the funtimes. In the fourth closet, the mci kids are sentient inside the amalgamation of og animatronics AND the funtimes both simultaneously. They just switched conciousnessess between those two areas and the spirit realm. Since William didn't fully bring over their souls, Henry could have brought whatever was left of the suits INTO the rockstars. That way part of their souls are both in the rockstars and the funtimes. But because Henry probably couldn't find golden freddys original suit with the remnant that isn't in molten freddy/ Yendo inside, golden freddy's spirit stayed behind. That's why ucn happens, etc. Bonnie is used for rockstar bonnie, which implies the originals were used for their rockstar counterparts. Which is why there's no rockstar golden Freddy, because Henry couldn't find the original fredbear suit. That way the mci kids aren't just put to the side awkwardly in fnaf 6 and are also included in the main cast. Respect for actually responding to some points though. I hope you see this comment.

[@smt64productions40]

The only instance I think “MoltenMCI”would work if it isn’t the MCI but the DCI but I think it is easier to say “new dead kids are in the Funtimes”

[@sofiadragon6520]

We never really know how many kids died. Sure, we know five spirits hung around and possessed the OG restaurant, but not every dead kid has to become a ghost! The fun times are designed to kill kids on the daily, and then get scooped out and experimented with. So much of this story is just someone's interpretation of some symbolism.

MoltenMCI and RockstarMCI could both coexist. Ppl forget there was a 2nd MCI in 1987 and we never saw the toy animatronics again past 1987 (only their outer shells in FNAF3 without their endoskeletons)

[@DavidN-fy1gi]

That’s called the DCI (dead children’s incident)

[@LucasTF]

The Save Them children possesed the Toy animatronics, and their souls never appeared again, aside from ARGUABLY FNaF 3 and ARGUABLY Custom Night.

[@j-botpokeuser533]

This video inspired me to consider RyeToast's Molten DCI theory (kzbin.info/www/bejne/injMg36ri62jY6c) in combination with FuhNaff's new Mike Villain theory (kzbin.info/www/bejne/baeQfoqVnJJlf9k). With these interpretations combined, we find William and Michael both regretting their poor choices that led to the deaths of family members (Elizabeth for William, Crying Child for Michael). Instead of growing apart, they bond over the promise to put their family back together. As in RyeToast's theory, Michael comes in at the end of FNAF 2 to claim the DCI endoskeletons for remnant. He and William use this remnant with the Funtimes to experiment, learning enough about the substance to feel confident in an attempt to bring their family back. However, while they have Elizabeth's remnant they still need to get the Crying Child back. So, Michael goes to the FNAF 1 locations and tampers with the animatronics, programming them to do the "Follow Me" minigame so that William can disassemble them. Unfortunately this frees the spirits, and he gets springtrapped. As in your video it's actually Henry who takes the endoskeletons, which he studies in order to understand remnant for the FNAF 6 Insanity ending. You could say he takes them for Rockstar MCI, but despite the weird Faz Fact I'm not totally on board with that theory. Regardless, Michael is now at a loss without his father or his brother's remnant, so he does the only thing he can think of and goes into Circus Baby's rentals to try to bring back his sister, cutting his losses and taking as much family as he can get. Not fully understanding William's plan and desperate to believe in Elizabeth, he gets scooped. Again borrowing from FuhNaff, Henry gets a job at Fazbear Frights and learns that William has escaped. He burns the place down. I say that at this point he's brought the MCI remnant with him, which is how they reconnect with the puppet and have Happiest Day. It's because of this that Henry mistakenly believes that fire destroys remnant, which sets up his plan for Pizzeria Simulator. This could be cut out and replaced with Rockstar MCI without affecting the rest of the theory, however. From this point it follows FuhNaff's theory. Michael learns his father is still alive in some form, and goes to Pizzeria Simulator to find him. Everyone gets together, Henry burns the place down, the en- I mean Security Breach. Two interesting recontextualizations of lines that come from this theory is that "Although there was a way out planned for you I feel that's not what you want." could be Henry saying he sealed off the exit because Michael is equally a villain as William and wants the same thing, rather than Michael choosing to stay because his story is done. Additionally, Molten Freddy's line "One big happy family" under this theory would be referring to how Michael and William tortured the DCI spirits in pursuit of bringing their family back together, and the spirits are taunting them for getting what they wanted but not in the way they planned. I'm sure there are some issues (that stupid Bonnie Faz Fact), but I really wanted to get this theory out there. I'm really excited about how the FNAF theory community is re-evaluating old assumptions, and hope that this contributes to that renaissance.

[@KGeorg2004]

Molten MCI never made sense to me. In the night 5 fnaf 3 minigame where William afton dies all of the animatronic parts of the original 4 still lie on the ground straight up debunking it or am i meant to believe that William afton brought them to his bunker and build robots out of them while bleeding to death and his bones being shattered from rusted metal after the whole springlock incident and then walking back to the Freddy's to die in the save room for no reason? I guess the toys still work with molten MCI but that's a whole nother can of worms that i really don't want to open.

[@ItsDesca]

I agree so hard with this. Molten MCI forces William to build an entire underground bunker complete with killer robots in like a day, and then he randomly goes back to the pizzeria and gets killed with the animatronics he supposedly melted down literally right outside.

[@frogballoon]

MoltenMCI might have some problems, but making the assumption that Henry just went out and found the Rockstars to burn them with him is absurd. FFPS's true ending only happens when you collect every salvage (as you know) and it cannot be achieved without molten freddy (while it can be achieved without the rockstars). That is such a glaring issue that I just can't ignore it for that one line about Rockstar Bonnie in one email. And no, you can't defend your random assumptions with MoltenMCIs random assumptions. I feel like there's a really obvious, more sensical solution sitting right under our noses, but I don't know what it is. All that I know is that this is a step in the wrong direction (in my opinion). While you did provide SOME compelling evidence, there is just as much (if not more) really good evidence for MoltenMCI.s

[@Teoriak]

because a child's soul only produces a remnant once if the animatronics gain some consciousness and are powered by the 5 children they kill, they can then murder thousands more

[@deangeloenriquez1603]

4:55 I feel this is not golden Freddy saying they have been burned multiple times but rather now that their soul is tied to Afton no matter how many times Afton burns Cassidy won’t let him pass on

[@SlyJordie]

Stormister made a really good video that explains how Golden Freddy was burned in the the FNaF6 ending. Afton wanted to rip parts off of himself in the Spring Bonnie suit because of how susceptible it was to following children wherever heard like in FNaF3. The theory is that Afton found the Golden Freddy suit & ripped parts off of it to make a new suit, hence why his head looks so disproportionate & he actually has suited feet. That is how Cassidy is able to tie their soul to William, they are part of the same suit & therefore they were both burned leading quite nicely into UCN.

[@Razzberry_dollz]

Tbh what about lefty MCI ? Lefty being made with the parts from the orginal 4 with the puppet inside could work

Yeah I really don’t like the molten MCI theory it doesn’t make sense why the Funtimes have pieces of the original’s in them but none of have there personalities or any traits that connects them together and makes you go huh that’s very similar to this other character and it’s also dumb if baby has technically 3 people inside of her circus baby Elizabeth and one of the original animatronics that’s just dumb I think you’re rockstar theory makes a little more sense

You know what? I NEVER believed Molten MCI, I think it just has to many issues. Especially because I have ALWAYS believed William gets springlocked in 1987. This means that the FNaF 1 animatronics were possessed AFTER William died. I could be totally wrong, but that's my two cents

[@LightningLeaf]

"No matter how many times they burn us" I believe that this is Cassidy just-- Speaking for the other spriits while they aren't there to speak for themselves.

[@siresquawks]

Then that still implies that some group of spirits have been burned multiple times. Which never happens in Molten MCI.

[@quinnmaillot3882]

Just had a thought revisiting this video for research. I don't know how Henry would be privy to this information, but under Roctstar MCI, the may not need to be present in the FNAF 6 fire because happiest day is what frees them, not William's death. It may even be possible that happiest day occured after fnaf 3, in which case Cassidy may have pulled an Andrew and attached to William until Fnaf 6. To continue the line of thought, Henry may even have been aware that they were freed, and decided to not to make them mandatory for the true ending. There's some useful pieces here, I'm just not sure how they fit together yet.

(this is dumb and not something I actually believe) Lefty is actually more then just the puppet and (this one is believable in my mind, at least more than a random extra spring-lock suit Afton pulled out of his ass) Afton used pieces of Golden Freddy to fix Spring Bonnie and that's what scraptrap is.

[@MEMEYeeto]

Hey i wanted to mention something that i find odd. Nightmare Bonnie and Rockstar Bonnie are VERY similar build wise. possibly theory base for fnaf 4 having mike in his room behind haunted by the souls of fnaf 1 but freddy wouldnt match.

[@madeline1714]

0:00 the only reason one is reasonable and one isn’t is because it makes zero sense why Henry would keep the animatronics “alive” until the fire. Why not just burn them immediately. The only reason why the salvage animatronics need to be burnt at the same time is to not arouse suspicion. But that doesn’t apply to the rockstars because Henry owns them. However it does make sense that William would use haunted tech to build his animatronics. If we have to make justification for both why choose the less logical one? And another thing is if the rockstars are haunted, who is haunting molten Freddy?

[@Yipper64]

12:40 ok not to get political but this is sort of a mentality people seem to have as a society. I have my beliefs, let me find any way to make those beliefs fit new information. Rather than saying "ok so maybe my beliefs are wrong because this doesnt fit the information I have" its just hard headed and stupid, maybe in this less important place of a silly videogame lore we can start to learn to be more open minded and take information together as a whole rather than trying to defend a belief just because you want it to be true.

[@skeletaltrees]

my only issue with this theory is that the rockstars aren’t required for the game, including that final ending

[@monstrdog7031]

Molten mci also doesnt make sense with the follow me minigame unless ol willy is taking abart one animatronic a night for some reason. I dont think hes going anywhere (for 30 years) after getting springlocked and wouldnt have a chance to take parts or remnant back to the funtimes :V

[@Xainos28]

Looking into the link you provide to the reddit post, the original link that stated Scott confirmed these were canon is gone, in fact the twitter page of the said person's account who had the info no longer exists. There also doesn't seem to be any other evidence of this confirmation in google, like, no matter how many times I try typing it, no image of him confirming the unused files and such in AR are canon. So it's now at the point of He said/she said moment as it seems no other fredditor mods who would have this info posted confirming Scott said this is canon. It's also very suspicious that something very important to the lore never reached the fnaf media, Dawko, Jonnyblox, even Kane Karter never post about this cause this would be game breaking for the lore. This is also pondering of the time frame of this reddit post to the release of the ultimate guide would be released 4 months away and doesn't contain any info of the unused AR content, sure it could not have been added cause it was too close to release, but even then, something would have been mention. So sadly until actual evidence of Scott confirming it arises, the unused content is back in that grey area of being canon or not.

[@Jedi-ge6lr]

Something I think could be used by both sides (those that believe in RockstMCI, and those who don't) is that yeah, the Rockstars aren't required for getting the true ending, but we don't know what animatronics Michael bought. We know some of the things he bought thanks to SB, but we don't know all the animatronics he bought.

[@freegracetruth77]

I believe that canonically, michael did buy the rockstars, or its possible the rockstars were already at the location from the start, since we literally see children's drawings of the rockstar animatronics in the fnaf 6 office.

[@Blessy.EXEreal]

10:40 I am a MoltenMCI2 believer, and I also am a RockstarMCI believer. Perhaps due to gaslighting from William, and people believing Michael was crazy about the “rumours,” perhaps the DCI was to motivate him into trying to find out what was going on under the alias of Fritz Smith, and him tampering with the animatronics due to William’s gaslighting and his curiosity based on what he heard, they come to life at night, “rumours.” This makes the DCI actually relevant, and have a FORM of MoltenMCI; er- MoltenMCI2 AND RockstarMCI both work, and both make somewhat sense!

Great video. I think I’m sold. If we leave the toys out of it (I also thought of moltenToyMCI) then it makes perfect sense. If MoltenToyMCI is true, then sister location would be after fnaf 2, which kinda makes it silly for the funtimes being made to capture children if they’re already made from souls…Like what’s the point. Also Elizabeth would have to had died after fnaf or during fnaf 2. Which seems way to late. My guess is it’s just the kids the fun times captured. OR. Baby was made much earlier, but then who else would be with her at circus baby’s pizza world then, ya know?

[@pirusaogostoso741]

I think all of the Funtimes are in some way possessed by Elizabeth, baby seems to have two personalities, one from Elizabeth, and the other from the robot itself, why would Elizabeth talk about the way baby felt when killed Elizabeth from Baby's perspective if at the time she wasn't even possessing baby, and I don't know if the way we hear Elizabeth's voice on sister location secret ending is her spirit itself, or just the voice mimic device inside the animatronics, each robot seem to have their own personality, and any of those feel childish or like a murderer victim, it feels just like what they are, machines build to kill, feral, on a riot to escape the prision where they're locked and electrocuted every single day, but it also seems that the animatronics gained their "Awareness" only after baby kill Elizabeth, maybe this isn't possession, maybe they are their own selfs but sustaining from a dead spirit to keep themselves "alive" maybe the same aplies for burntrap and glamrock freddy. Actually this may apply to all animatronics and would explain why we have more than one animatronic for each dead kid in fnaf 2, maybe the spirits aren't using the animatronics as their bodies, maybe they are just present unawarelly manipulating unanimated objects with their feelings, the only ones who would be aware of this abilities and learn to dominante it would be Charly, Golden freddy, William and Michael, this might explain a lot of stuff actually, the "hallucinations" like the posters, the cardboard animatronics, the number of active animatronics in fnaf 2, the way they roam aimlessly till finding someone (Instead doing like the puppet and going straight for you once it is freed from the music box).

[@pirusaogostoso741]

William may think that the spirits are physically bond to the metal, but instead they are emotionally bond with the animatronics, since it was what used to bring them joy when they were alive.

I really like the Rockstar MCI theory. Even if they are only partial souls, and the other part of the souls was in the Toys who became/were injected into the Funtimes, it still explains what happened to the haunted parts we saw in the first game's animatronics and how they end up on site in Pizzeria Simulator. Great video!

[@hokton8555]

and the rockstars kinda look like the toys too

[@SikerGaming]

The rockstars being somewhere else in the building makes sense if you remember that the entire pizzeria simulator is specifically built for this purpose. You're buying the animatronics _from Henry._ Additionally we know there are rooms in the building we cant see because Henry said "I am nearby." This also explains why You're able to get these machines on such short notice (seriously, IRL it would take weeks at least to get just one batch of animatronics).
