Was there a Glamrock Foxy? (Replaced & Rebranded)

Foxy didn’t get replaced or destroyed. He simply retired from Fazbear Entertainment to pursue his lifelong passion, his calling to life… Stonemasonry.

I still like my theory that Roxy replaced Foxy and knows that she replaced a popular character. So that contributes to her characterization as an insecure wreck. Just a head canon but it gives me something to think about while at work

1:11 back in my day we used to believe foxy was the most intelligent/aware of the group. golden Freddy was just a weird one with teleportation

i think its funny how the foxy craze went down so far despite him genuinely being the most unique in FNaF 1, best design and usually has the best/coolest mechanic

I really like RyeToast’s theory that while Foxy was never at the Pizzaplex there were plans to bring Foxy in, but those plans ended up not happening because they were unable to finish the log ride.

Could just be the nostalgia talking, but I didn’t like how after SL, random things that were important to the OG four animatronics were either changed or removed, whether that be some of them not getting dialogue in UCN or Foxy and Bonnie having hardly much of a presence in SB.

I always imagined that foxy still had a significant part in the Fazbear brand as of security breach but just wasn’t an animatronic in the Pizza plex, like how Chica was missing in sister location or how the puppet went unused in most known locations but still was referenced by Fazbear entertainment

According to the Ruin collectables, the Log Ride attraction never got finished building. The only reason i think Cassie rode the log ride was cause her dad was a technician, so itd make sense fazbear would use employees kids as test subjects for rides that are still in beta. Im guessing that the cowboy branding didnt go over well from test groups and they dropped it before they got it off the ground and replaced it with the cooler Roxy.

I always thought it was something similar to what happened with the pirates of the Caribbean ride in Disney world, where before it's modern incarnation as the pirate ride we all know and love, it was cowboy themed, cause Disney thought pirates wouldn't sell well in Florida's already pirate saturated market. needless to say they were wrong and tons of people were upset at the lack of pirates in Disney world.

Because of the lack of Foxy and rather obvious replacement-but-not-quite in Roxy, I've had this headcannon for a while that Roxy's insecurities come not just from Fazbear's neglicence with AI, but also from the idea that she might know she's supposed to be a replacement. Maybe she's not entirely sure who she's replaced because of the lack of advertisement, but it gives her some more depth. I can imagine her being nice in front of the crowd, trying to put on the best show and hyping herself up to the detriment of others until she's forced into Safe Mode because there's a tiny voice in the back of her mind whispering that if she doesn't - that if the public doesn't like her enough - she might end up as a small side attraction in the daycare or have her raceway completely torn apart. Maybe that's also why she's so protective of it haha. There's not really a lot of evidence towards this (well, maybe Bonnie being replaced so easily could tip her off, but that could easily not be relevant either), but if it was Bonnie, Freddy, Chica, and Roxy as the main 4 when the Pizzaplex was opened, she could have potentially figured it out. There is a mini museum exhibit about the franchise right in front of the band's greenrooms, so she would have access to the knowledge that the original were Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy. So definitely not impossible, but it's all just speculation. It also puts Monty and Roxy in a unique position: they're the only ones aware that they're replacements. Monty is obvious, as he literally replaced Bonnie, but Roxy is also a replacement of Foxy even if there's no Glamrock version of him. Maybe she's even seen the broken logride. We know Chica goes down into the trash, Roxy might have wandered there or fallen in or something. This replacement idea could also explain why Freddy isn't really liked. Chica seems concerned in the intro and DJMM seems to be on good terms with him, but the other animatronics seem indifferent or outright hostile. Monty's hostilities are obvious, but Roxy is more indifferent, with the only notable interaction between them being when he enters her room after repairs. But think of it this way: Freddy has been in every game possible, sometimes with multiple incarnations within the same game, and Chica has theoretically been through every animatronic generation except Springlock (Funtime Chicha exists, just not in SL), so they don't have to think of how they could easily be replaced for another character (even though they should if Mr. Glamrock Hippo is anything to go by), but Monty quite literally all but erased Glamrock Bonnie from existance and Roxy is a pretty obvious Foxy stand-in. It plays nicely with her attitude of having to be the best too, since she's well aware that if she isn't, she might be thrown to the side and burried. I don't know, I just thought it gave some nice character to Monty and Roxy, and maybe offering some insight on why they (mostly Monty) hate Freddy, since, as the mascot, he's unlikely to ever be replaced by a new character (except when he quite literally is, but we'll ignore that). Again, more of a headcannon than anything else, there's very little hard evidence for this, but it doesn't detract anything from the characters imo.

I like how Foxy and Roxy exist as two seperate characters in universe. Its cool to have variant characters that stand out on there own from there inspiration. Though i think its funny that both were designed with specific themes in mind, retro 80s and old time pirate

Headcanon: Foxy sailed off into the the distance/rode off into the sunset after hearing about the whole Bonnie incident and took as much evidence of him being there as he could with him.

While the whole thing with rebranding Foxy as a cowboy that confused audiences and never cameback after that makes sence, I always had a theory that Glamrock Foxy was more like an actor, obviously because of the roles of a captain pirate and a cowboy, but also, since SB had a theater place, which it had a poster of Foxy next to it, it might have make sence on that

I like to imagine foxy is like the old retired Grandpa telling stories in the kids Cove about his glory days and then meanwhile his great-granddaughter Roxanne took his place on the stage to entertain a new generation

I don't think Foxy was ever gonna be a Glam BUT I do think a Captain Foxy was being at least made since he had his own section in the Pizzaplex

Sheriff Foxy was just Foxy having a midlife crisis, huh?

Imagine if we had both him and Bonnie in the whole glamrock band. Imagine if him and Bonnie where also allies to Gregory working with Freddy to stop vanny.

I agree that Roxy isn't Foxy, however, I feel that part of her inferiority complex is actually rooted in the fact that she knows she's replacing Foxy and she has to live up to that imposing legacy. Part of what seems to go along with this is after Gregory wrecks the kart into her and takes her eyes, she starts chasing him through what appears to be some sort of furnace room. Said room has a ton of Foxy merch ready to be burned up. Also another reason they likely would have made Roxy is that otherwise Chica was hard-carrying all the aspiring little girls. As it stands, Chica is supposed to be the cook/waitress character, but she's also the exercise gal. That is already too many things pushed onto one gal, so having another female cast member helps lighten the load in that aspect, and on that not, Roxy has clearly achieved that goal since gals and guys alike really like her. I mean ,the number of people who fell for her when they heard her talking to herself in the mirror is notable.

From what I can tell with there having been no mention of a Glamrock Foxy it shows how Fazbear Entertainment must've tried to experiment with seeing how popular his log ride would've been with an older audience to get a modern look like the other Glamrocks. Since the log ride failed they could've just decided to scrap the concept as a whole with Foxy getting a glamrock design and then realized they needed make a new character like Roxanne to fit with an older audience for the theme that Pizzaplex was going for with Go-Karts being a more popular choice in a party place than a slow log ride. Awesome job on this video NotRealName!

For the ending stuff about the books. Chica being yellow is because that was early in the pizzaplex. She is shown to have a cupcake too. In fact, she is likely the Chica who was in the sewer in the other story. Abe explicitly calls her 'a' Glamrock Chica, implying she's not the original. And he finds her alongside a bunch of other animatronics that got dumped here, its not Gregory's doing. "Whereas the storage level was kept clean and was brightly lit, this floor was little more than an indoor landfill. And it was infested with wandering, wasted animatronics. Abe sucked in his breath when his flashlight’s beam landed on one such animatronic. The pitiful remains of a Glamrock Chica resting against the sewer’s outer wall blinked at Abe and raised a handless arm. The lower part of Chica’s face was a gaping maw." It makes it clear these are all old animatronics who were left to rot here, and calling her 'a' Glamrock Chica makes it clear its not the one currently being used. The 'Moondrop' is just a hallucination of Moon, not the actual animatronic IIRC. Also, the Mimic does not dress in a tiger costume. Tiger Rock existed as a robot head in the storyteller, and also as a form it takes in the virtual world. It wears a bunch of different costumes, including a lion one, it never wears a tiger costume.
