WHY FNAF4 TAKES PLACE IN 1987
1. There's a girl who has the toy models of Freddy's gang. They weren't invented until 1987.
2. Mangle is in your house (I'm well aware there isn't only one Mangle, but we have one. And she wasn't Toy Foxy, she was already mangled. Purple Man was the employee who would take her home every night and fix her. Eventually he stopped trying.)
3. TV doesn't mean crap, we can see 87 in Foxy's eye, 87 everywhere in the old teaser's source code. It could be a rerun of the series.
THIS MEANS FREDBEAR'S CO-EXISTED WITH FREDDY FAZBEAR'S. EVEN THOUGH PHONE GUY MENTIONS THE PREVIOUS LOCATION, IT WAS SHUT DOWN JUST BEFORE THE OPENING OF FNAF2.

EDIT: "They used to be able to walk around during the day too, and then there was the bite of '87." (FNAF1, 1993)
"They can even walk around during the day!" (FNAF2, 1987) meaning the bite took place at the Five Nights 2 location.

1. It is possible the withered animatronics from the 2nd game are the same ones in the 4th game.

2. I can't explain that, but Mangle might just be an Easter egg.

3. Why would there be both a Fredbear's and a Freddy's existing at the same time? And knowing Scott, he might be trying to trick us with the teasers.

1. The TV show (Fredbear and Friends) might imply that the original cast (Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy) were only TV show characters, and they weren't made actual animatronics until after this game. Which further explains why they were called the "toy" animatronics. It's the toys that the kids have made full size.

2. Mangle's a guy. Other than that, this sounds about right to me.

3. See #1. Also, I don't see an 87 in Foxy's eye.

Pretty sure this is how it went down.

The thing is, he IS a guy. I don't see how people think he's a girl.

1: What?

2: The people who thought FNAF 2 was a sequel said that the "1987" on the paycheck was an easteregg. No, don't bring up that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ again. It is NOT an easteregg, in any way.

3: Knowing Scott, he might try to trick guillible people with planting a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 1983 on the TV. Think about this... If I walk into a restraunt, and I see "Since 1963" does that mean we're not living in 2015 but 1963 instead? No. No... it doesn't.

I assume the 1983 was actually a date for when it was founded. It was kind of a common thing for companies to put their year of creation on their logos.

The withered models in FNAF2 kind of make it possible that they did exist back in 1983 though. They're pretty old and beat up looking by the year 1987.

I just don't understand why the engineers at Freddy Fazbear's doesn't have a clue on what a male or a female is.

Think about this.

Instead of using in-context clues (clues in-game) why not use out-of-context clues?

Everyone wanted to know about the bite of 87.

Scott then makes a game about the bite of 87.

Why would he make a game NOT showing the bite of 87?

They do. They made the character, they claimed Mangle's male.

Scott himself said that the Toy animatronics have the same gender as the old characters, meaning unless Foxy has secretly been a girl all this time (0% chance) Mangle is a guy.

1.So you know how you see the main animatronics in the 4th game (NOT the toys)? Well, them, along with Fredbear and Springtrap, could have both existed at the same time.

2.When did I mention the paycheck? I didn't :/

3.I never mentioned the TV. The TV isn't reliable.

This man (or woman, I don't know) speaks the truth. What reason would they have to change Foxy's gender? None. Therefore, Mangle's packing.

B-but the lipstick! And the feminine- like charms!

I don't want to say chest or panties because those SFM/GMOD models are fanmade.

1 I... still don't get it.

2. I'm comparing the "it's just an easteregg" to the paycheck in FNAF 2, when everybody who thought it was a sequel It wasn't just said "oh 1987 on the paycheck is an easteregg"

3. Why would there be both a Burgerking and a McDonald's existing at the same time? Same thing here. They just do.
