It's the article equivalent of a pity fuck.
You know you got it hard when the real target audience (kids aged 3-8) want nothing to do with these, they're already bored to tears with all of those INFLUENCERS talking about the same thing, overreacting to the point they manage to break the nigh-indestructible suspension of disbelief children tend to have, plus the plushies tend to be non-cute and are a physical token of what was designed to be a bad memory.
I'm not even sure who the creators intend to troll with these, clueless parents or clueless retail store owners who'll stock on the latest fad without evaluating it out of FOMO, like people who still have a surplus of fidget spinners in 2022.

Another reason why characters like her are popular: Rubber/elastic powers.
Get like a hundred different kinks, put them all into one.

Quite a common occurrence actually, a lot of characters you envision with a sexy body really comes from the fact that your brain has long since phased-out their canon noodleyness . PB and Marceline, Wendy Corduroy, Frankie Foster, Vicky, literally every Sonic character except Rouge….

And don't forget this spreading to other things like every FNAF character and MLP character. One could also note the horny may be too strong for some people that you'll need the bat to make them stop.

Like many characters with the noodle appendage body-type, the appeal comes from when the r34 artists ignore that and instead make them really thicc. Observe:

Not at all. The noodliness is precisely what I like about her.

I refuse to even let my wood harden even a fragment because the game she's from is a FOTM zoomer horror game whose creators sell lore as NFTs because they really wanna be the next FNAF but in a few years they'll be forgotten like other born to die kiddy horror games like Hello Neighbor.
I hath spoken.

They did publicly apologize and donate all their profits from the NFTs to the Clean Air Task Force.

Uh huh. Sure. They "apologized" instead of realizing they got caught with their pants down. Right.

Nothin' wrong with that, though, to defend people like me who still do, there's nothing wrong with harvesting waifus and blorbos from trash-heaps and garbage-piles.

Personally it's just the croppish top and skintight spats that do it for me, if anyone knows any similar character I'm all ears

I'm reminded of the "Hunt Down The Freeman vs Sonic Omens" comparisons.
I'm not going to say Poppy Playtime or Sonic Omens are GOOD games, but at least they function and have understanding of level design, whereas HDtF and Hello Neighbor can barely get past the main menu screen before things start glitching to hell.
The ironic thing is that might make Poppy and Omens less memorable

I gotta say the fake commercial is actually impressive. Most fake-retro shit lacks verisimilitude, but they went the extra mile.
