And by bear – I do mean a totally furry & clawed version of the doll (this would be my pick of the bunch). The Buddi doll comes in different models: There’s the expected red-haired, freckled design, but also a Blonde, African-American, and (strangest of all) bear version of the ‘Buddi' doll.

This new technology-run-amok angle opens the series up to a bevy of interesting choices, many of which I learned about on set.

But this new Chucky isn’t a voodoo-imbued serial killer it’s high-tech AI gone bad (voiced now by Mark Hamill). The basics are still the same: A single mom ( Aubrey Plaza) buys her son Andy a ‘Buddi’ doll – which, of course, has a mind of its own. However the new Child’s Play reboot takes significant departure from this mythos – the first in the series to tell a new stand-alone story. From there it’s pretty simple: Chucky tracks Andy down (through the sequels & decades), killing everyone who gets in his way… which (turns out to be) quite a lot. Said doll is then bought by a single mom as a present for her six year old son, Andy – who the evil doll marks as the perfect human vessel. Most terrifyingly, they also use their sharp teeth to devour panicked victims.There’s been seven films in the Child’s Play franchise, all entwined in the same interlocking mythology: a mortally-wounded serial killer, Charles Lee ‘Chucky’ Ray, transfers his rotten soul into a child-sized ‘Good Guy’ doll. They tackle folks and use weapons just like Chucky to pounce on and batter their victims. These dolls look like psycho-Paddingtons, with hair all over their faces. And when Chucky commands his drones to attack all the shoppers, he ups the ante with this fuzzy, lethal Buddi Bear legion. These new Buddi Bears also have different hairstyles and clothes, basically acting as the cutest variants to the mainstream Chucky line.

They'll leave you going "Awww!" one moment and grimacing at their sheer aggression the next. That's when Chucky unleashes the violent Buddi Bears, who wear Chucky's clothes but coming off like flesh-eating monsters.
