— Freddy Fazbear, Gumdrop Angel
|
Freddy Fazbear is an animatronic bear and a minor character in the Fazbear Frights book series and the sole antagonist of Pizza Kit, the third story in Fazbear Frights: The Puppet Carver. He is an alternate counterpart of Freddy Fazbear from Five Nights at Freddy's and the mascot of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
Appearance[]
Freddy is a brown animatronic bear with a light shade of brown on both his stomach and puffy muzzle. On stage, he wears a black top hat, black bow tie with a neck strap, and wields a microphone with his right hand. He has thick black eyebrows, three-toed feet, and three blackish freckles on both sides of his muzzle. From his palms and underneath his fingers he has what appears to be paw-like prints. His round ears are articulated and are thus able to move backwards and forward (Similar to the ears of several other animatronics). Freddy sports squarish, human-like teeth from his lower jaw, and, like most of the animatronics at the pizzeria (except for Foxy), has no visible teeth on his upper jaw.

Trivia[]
- Fredbear appears very similar to Freddy. Some had believed he was a golden version of Freddy, thus his name. However, he and Freddy are two different characters, as shown in Five Nights at Freddy's 4.
- Unlike most other Freddy variants in other media, such as the games and the original novels, Freddy hasn't had a relevant role in the plot of the Fazbear Frights series in any way, nor is seen as a direct antagonist in any of the stories so far. This also applies with Bonnie.
