Bonnie

**Bonnie** is an animatronic blue rabbit created as the guitarist of the stage band at **Freddy Fazbear's Pizza**. He is one of the four original mascots of **Freddy Fazbear's Pizza**.

Designed as a bipedal blue rabbit wearing a red bowtie and playing a red electric guitar, **Bonnie** is often shown to the most active and energetic of the cast.

## History

Similarly to **Freddy Fazbear**, Bonnie was seemingly derived from an early Springlock animatronic design from preceding establishment **Fredbear's Family Diner**. **Bonnie** was first seen at **Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria** in 1983 as a guitarist in the animatronic band, as well as **Freddy**'s "left hand rabbit". **Bonnie** would continue to be used in stage show performances up until the pizzeria's closure in 1985, where he would be left on site. Following an attempted retrofit in 1987, **Bonnie** would be fully restored in 1988 for use at **Freddy Fazbear's Pizza**. The **Bonnie** animatronic would remain fully serviced and used up until the pizzeria's closure in 1993. The animatronics' fate following the closure of **Freddy Fazbear's Pizza** is unknown.

## In Media

When Bonnie was first introduced in 1983, he was initially depicted as laid back and deadpan, usually playing his guitar more than speaking. When he did speak, he would do so with a mid pitch voice reminiscent of a stereotypical hippie. This personality and voice continued to be used after Bonnie's retrofit in 1988.

In 1990, Bonnie's personality underwent an overhaul, making him more moody and hyperactive. He would often spark feuds with the rest of the band due to thinking himself superior, and often challenged Freddy's leadership of the band. He also harbored a deep seeded rivalry with Foxy, whom he would argue with frequently whenever Foxy was active.

From 1990 onwards, Bonnie began hosting various Holiday events, such as Valentines and Easter, while also taking more laid back approaches to things like Shamrock Shakedown and Independence Day shows. Bonnie's highly sprung and emotional personality were greatly shown in the Valentines skits, where, despite hosting the event, he openly disposed the holiday for undisclosed reasons, leading the rest of the group to call him "Black Heart Bonnie". Bonnie's egotistical and prideful side were openly shown off in the Easter showtape, where Bonnie would insist upon being referred to as "The Easter Bonnie" (a play on Easter Bunny) and would attempt to take charge of the show much to the frustration of Chica and Freddy.

In 1993, production costs on the show stage were greatly reduced, leading Bonnie to assume less speaking roles akin to his older appearances, but he would continue using his more hyper voice and personality when he did speak, but greatly wound down.

## Designs

### Classic Bonnie

Bonnie is designed as a bipedal blue rabbit by default, with a wide body and cartoon proportions, including three toed feet and four fingered posable hands. His head is rounded and soft in shape, with extruded cheeks and a squarish snout adorned with a black button nose. He has segmented ears that stick up from the top of his head that rotate and swing in and out. His inner ears, snout, belly, the area around his neck and the padding on his hands are all a pale blue color, while the padding on his feet is black. He had reddish-pink eyes and a red bow tie, and carries a custom electric guitar with a black body and red pick guard.

### Blacklight Bonnie

The **Blacklight Bonnie** costume retains the same shape as **Classic Freddy**, but replaces many of the colors with blacklight themed glowing alternates. Bonnie's main blue color is made pink, while the white accent, including his inner ears and under his feet, are green. Bonnie's accessories are made purple.

### Elf Bonnie

For Christmas-time events, Bonnie was given additional cosmetics in the form of an Elf themed outfit. He wore a green hat, coat and pants, all lined with wool, and carried a guitar shaped like a Christmas tree.

## Trivia

* Bonnie is often mistaken to be purple rather than blue, even by staff and official designers. This may be due to a purple colored spotlight being positioned at him during show performances, but Bonnie has been confirmed to officially be blue in color.
