Headscratchers / Cun-Cun & Santi


 * How are Panza and Morado alive in every level? The game story states that toys only can come to life when Cun-Cun and Santi are together and near the toys, so how is Panza and Morado able to put their boxes everywhere without Cun-Cun and Santi´s help?
 * Maybe they put them in those places and just go? Or they are there just beacuse it´s their supposed place to be? I don´t know...
 * It is implied that the entire game is just imaginary or partially imaginary, so Cun-Cun and Santi can just imagine them be there by themselves? Or they purposely put them in there and just go there.
 * The game is partialy imagination, so that would make sense.


 * Why can´t Cun-Cun roll by himself in the second game when he was perfectly capable of doing it in the first game? And also one of the few things he could do by himself at that...
 * Maybe to give Tigre and Santi more participation in the ground moves? He can still do it by himself when they split up.
 * So CunCun can have his own metod of attack when he´s solo.


 * Why Santi takes damage when Cun-Cun falls into thorn bushes when by himself? Isn´t he able to walk over them?
 * Beacuse they all share the Life Meter.
 * Santi has his own abilities when playing exclusively as him and not when controlled by the CP.
 * Fridge Brilliance: Santi doesn´t have a sliding animation like Cun-Cun and Tigre beacuse he can walk up steep slopes when playing as him with the Spiky Shoe Trot.
 * That still doens´t explain the original question.
 * How is Nico in ArcadeLand Swamp? How did he got there?
 * Maybe he lives there?
 * I wish i lived in an arcade.
 * Maybe he is a friend of Cun-Cun or Santi and is playing along the imaginary adventure with them.
 * Well, partialy imaginary adventure...It is implied is not entirely fictional.


 * Exactly when are the levels supposedly to be located? The entrances to the levels are in rooms or walls of the house but the levels themselves are even real? Are they portals to existing places or are just created by Menacor´s magic or Cun-Cun and Santi´s imagination? How are Panza and Morado in every of them?
 * The same place the paintings in Super Mario 64 lead, I would assume. Or at least a similar dimension or place.
 * Morado isn´t actually in every of the levels, just the first few.
 * Menacor could have created some of them for practical or specific purposes, like Bathroom Waltz beign the...well...never mind.


 * How big is the house anyway? The place is a relatively normal plain-square looking house in the exterior, but when you enter it is considerably bigger with many rooms larger than what we can assume from seeing from the outside, and it has two floors...all of this with portals or shortcuts to spacious levels, wich some of them are clearly outdoors...
 * Bigger On The Inside.
 * Remember, the house was enchanted by Menacor, he could have enlarged it to house all of the rooms and portals we see.
 * Or it is just game logic, EarthBound and Zelda A Link To The Past did the same thing.
 * Why is Cun-Cun´s hair blue in the second game?
 * Maybe is just a in-game render or lightning effect, he still has black hair in the box art of the game and in the guide´s artworks.
 * How are Cun-Cun and Santi in Freezy Snowy Hill not...you know...freezing to death? I understand Tigre and Lotto since theyre toys so okay i guess they dont "feel" temperatures, but Cun-Cun and Santi are actual humans wearing little clothing to the freezy enviorment of the level, especially Cun-Cun.
 * Exposed To The Elements in action here...
 * Maybe the level is not actually cold and its just for the scenery of the level, remember the game levels are not actually real in those regards.
 * Thats a good explanation really.


 * So what's the deal with BolsaFlex Industries Inc, anyway? The place is an enormous industrial factory that spews waste out of every corner. The air is polluted, the water is polluted, the ground is polluted, and the factory pumps out barrel after barrel of toxic waste. But the question still remains: what exactly does the factory produce? The stuff Panza and Krulux sell? What does Menacor has to do with them? And, if the factory does produce stuff for Panza and The Comedor Center, why does 90% of it have nothing to do with them? As far as I can see the factory just  manufactures  toxic waste...
 * Maybe they produce bags, the name of the factory is named after a bag factory in Argentina.
 * That doesn´t really solve anything, there are no bags visible in the level either...
 * Looks to me like it's a combination of Toxic Waste Plant (Everywhere), Freight Station (Train station on floor 1), Storage Facility (Floors 3 and 5), Mook Factory, and Sewer/Sewage plant (The fourth floor).


 * Why can´t Cun-Cun use his pogo stick anywhere? Why does he need that specific Pogo Pad to use it?
 * Maybe beacuse he can´t take it with him to everywhere he goes, so he leaves it in the pad to use it there when necessary.
 * Morado takes care of his pogo stick until he needs it. Cun-Cun can´t just go everywhere with it, it´s too heavy.
 * That raises further questions about the original question on this page...


 * How old is Cun-Cun anyway? He´s described as a "Guy" as opposed to Santi who´s described as a "Child". Is he a kid? A teenager? An adult?
 * Most likely an adult, as he´s old enough to drink coffee and buy alcohol and G-Rated Drugs in the second game.
 * Artistic Age, really.
 * He has some The Slacker traits, it´s possible he is a late teenager or a young adult.
 * And while we´re at it...how old are Tigre and Lotto? And the other Living Toys?
 * The same age as either Cun-Cun or Santi, some toys belong to Cun-Cun and some belong to Santi, so it is possible they are the same age as their owners, or a bit younger.


 * There is another house next to Cun-Cun and Santi´s that conforms part of Caracol Mountain, however, you can never actually enter that house...why? What could be there?
 * I remeber seeing in suplementary materials for the first game that it was Cun-Cun and Santi´s grandmother´s house. Why you can´t enter still dont know.
 * Maybe is locked up beacuse their grandma isn´t there.
 * That seems reasonable.


 * What is in the Forbidden Meadow? And why is a giant dinosaur-tree in there?
 * Is just an abandoned place or private property, and the dinosaur is just a tree that looks like a T-rex from CunCun and Santi´s balcony.
 * The Forbidden Meadow is just a urban legend Cun-Cun invented to scare Santi and the toys.
