Every Official FNAF Recolor EXPLAINED

The Five Nights at Freddy's series includes a LOT of animatronics/characters that are simply recolors of other pre-existing animatronics/characters. Let's quickly go over them!
CORRECTION: I somehow forgot most of the hard-mode 'Parts-And-Service' animatronics (Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy) and Beacon Bonnie from FNAF VR: Help Wanted in this list! They should be included, very sorry!
Thank you so much for watching!

Another thing regarding the Lemonade and Fruit Punch Clown animatronics is that there’s also a slight difference in their mini games. Lemonade Clown’s zone that you have to get the kids in is actually a few pixels larger than the Fruit Punch Clown’s zone

[@MARKY2428]

I love this video! Here's a few more fun notes mainly about their models: -Aside from recoloring Scott edited the Golden Freddy renders so that the eyes are more shadowy and surrounded by black -Withered Goden Freddy's biggest differences aside from color are the exposed wires on his right eye and missing ear like you said, but the arm wires are actually the same as Withered Freddy as they can be seen on both -JJ's colors differ from Fnaf 2 and UCN, for example the cheeks being blue in UCN while they were purple in Fnaf 2, this may be due to Scott not saving the original recolor textures and having to remake them for UCN (this happens quite a bit in UCN, like Bonnet) -Shadow Bonnie has more upper teeth unlike Toy Bonnie's 2 upper teeth, very specific but likely because it added to his appearence and visible teeth (i noticed that you pointed this out through text after making the comment) -Shadow Freddy has bigger eyeglows and his endoskeleton seems to be purple aswell if you look at the image closer -Phantom Freddy's textures are literally Withered Golden Freddy's aside from the snout and stomach etc (the brighter shades) being green and the burn marks being added, also Scott added exposed eye wires to his left eye aswell in UCN, likely to distinguish him more -The phantoms use the same burn textures, all of them -Phantom Mangle in Fnaf 3 has pink snout and pink surrounding her eyes like Fnaf 2, but in UCN it was changed to green, the Phantoms really received some tweaks in UCN like more shine and Phantom BB having bigger eye textures etc -Phantom Chica's textures in her jumpscares are slightly altered from her EXTRAS render -(this one might be a maybe) Jack-O-Bonnie actually uses the same textures as the Fnaf 1 Animatronics -Electrobab actually has no texture changes, it's just the eyes being yellow that change -Dark Springtrap is missing his pelvis suit part (although obviously the endoskeleton is still there) -In FNAF VR Phantom Foxy is missing his lower legs but has his feet (like Rayman lol) and Phantom BB is entirely missing his legs

[@patricknotstarf7678]

He's just a really weird character, he's incredibly similar to Golden Freddy with the whole appearing and pulling up your monitor spiel but the SL custom night DLC was his last appearance as far as I know. He was probably some sort of "Funtime Golden Freddy" endoskeleton but it makes you wonder if he even was canon in the first place, or if Scott just needed an extra character for the custom night as filler? And then I wonder if Yendo could of gotten into UCN? Bonnet and Lolbit got in and technically they weren't canon (at the time, lolbit is a bit more debatable on whether or not they were canon as they would appear in HW, and also appearing as an easter egg in the base game of SL) Imo, they should just classify Yendo as "not canon" because i think it would be insanely hard to try and explain him. Maybe he will get his own TFTP story, maybe they will explain how it's some inter-dimensional time traveler that is also a ticking time bomb. Who knows.

EHMM YOU FORGOT ABOUT SHADOW MANGLE FROM HARD MODE OF HELP WANTED'S MANGLE VENT REPAIR MINIGAME....................................

[@ender01o66]

2:32 Shadow Freddy doesn't crash your game, it was just an old rumour from 2014, I'm surprised this mistake is still being made to this day. 3:38 The Phantoms aren't hallucinations, they're made from Remnant like RWQFSFASXC, and they cause you to have hallucinations. These hallucinations are of multiple Springtraps appearing all over Fazbear Fright to confuse you. 3:51 Technically, Phantom Mangle's first in-game appearances are in FNaF World and UCN, you can see that they're not listed in the extras menu in FNaF 3. 4:13 Both of Phantom Freddy's lower legs are missing, this is due to them not being seen in-game, so resources weren't wasted on them. It's the same with Springtrap's legs also not being animated (they're still part of his model as we see his legs in other camera shots), the Mangle head that appears in the window, and JJ in FNaF 2 and UCN, and Spring Bonnie's upper jaw as well as Toy Chica's and Baby's endoskeleton in Help Wanted. RWQFSFASXC is also missing the tips of his ears in FNaF 2 if I recall correctly. None of these parts are actually missing, they're just never meant to be seen in-game. It's like how there's usually nothing behind the unopenable doors in Security Breach, in-universe there'd be rooms, but since it's a videogame and we never see that area, resources just aren't used on them. 4:53 This isn't a Phantom Shadow Freddy, it's just regular Shadow Freddy again without glowing eyes. 12:55 There's actually a shattered yellow recolour of Glamrock Chica that has been rusted away and is located in Rockstar Row, this being the remains of the Prototype Chica who was also crushed by the trash compactor previously. Prototype Freddy in RUIN is mostly also a recolour of Glamrock Freddy, being orange instead of yellow. There's also Gold Endo from FNaF World, as well as the Goldmines. The glitched FNaF World enemies are technically also recolours, and there's a few recolours of the Flan enemy and there's a metal man variant of a wooden axe enemy from the beginning of the game. And just like how the base AR models are recolours of Scott's models, it's the same with the Help Wanted models, showing that they're videogame characters. There's also the two sets of Help Wanted Blacklight characters as well as a burned Foxy. There's also Pizza Party Freddy.
