My friend sucked me into dandys world and i cant escapeksodoroermele

Here's a project I've been working on for a little over a month. A little Dandy's World AU I've decided to call "Everybody's Friends!"

All the designs I have right now are (sorta) concept sketches, and I wanna save all the character profiles and the big AU infodump for when I have more "HD" drawings of the characters. However, for a summary:

The AU is basically "what if Dandy's World were one of those franchises that was made to print out a bunch of toys and merch? Specifically from the 2009-2013 era?" Like it of course had the show, but they also had figurines, plushies, console games, flash games, blind bags, backpacks, a website, lunch boxes, a direct to DVD movie, all that jazz. And the main toys for the characters would be like 6-7 inch figurines that all have their own gimmicks (scented, posable parts, flocking, etc).

The show more or less is like the canon show. Teaching kids life lessons and friendship, but also shows the characters going on cartoonish adventures, some slice of life where the characters have to solve their own issues, and an overarching villain (who I haven't designed yet but I'm thinking about their design) who wants to spoil their fun. The friendship part is the biggest part of the show. Every character has a designated "Best friend" that's plastered all over their merch and character bios. Hence the tagline: "Everybody's Friends!"

These are all the commons. I did go the alien route with Cosmo since I thought that would be cute! Also in this AU, I decided that since there's an actual villain, Shrimpo's role would be slightly changed. He's not really a bully anymore, since I want him to fit in with the "everyone's friends" thing. So instead, I wanted to make him the "tough guy" who can just be very blunt about how he feels lol.

Here are all the uncommons! My favorite batch of characters overall! I like all the characters here, but it also has my favs Finn and RnD lol. They all were also just a lot of fun to draw.

I even included little Barnaby! I was wondering how Finn's gimmick would work out, since water toys do get grody after a while. But I know that whatever gimmick I give him, it has to involve Barnaby. I like to think that Barnaby is a character in of himself, probably being like that sidekick that doesn't talk but they make exaggerated expressions to show how they feel.

Another idea I had is that Toodles' gimmick would be that she works like an actual magic 8-Ball, except instead of the typical magic 8-Ball answers, all the answers are more in character to what Toodles would say. I think the function would probably be on the back of her head. Some of the answers would probably be little catchphrases she has in the show!

The rares! When I designed these guys, they were a little tricky to nail down. But I ultimately came up with some designs in the long run.

I remembered seeing Goob's concept design for the game where he had roller skates, and I thought that was a neat idea, so I incorporated them into this design here! The vision of Goob just skating around with his arms dragging behind was just very cute to me. Speaking of Goob, he actually went through a last minute tweak before this post. I shared these designs with some friends, and they critiqued that the button eyes I initially gave him were too creepy. Even though I thought the button eyes were cute, and I wanted Goob to look more like a plushie, I could see where they were coming from. However, I also really liked the button eyes, and I wanted him to have special eyes like his sister. So I eventually found a compromise with this design.

On the topic of the craft siblings, while I was drawing the rares, I came up with the perfect gimmick for them as toys:

Goob and Scraps are special from the others, because they'd be what I like to call "deco toys". The toys where the main gimmick is that you can draw on them and decorate them with stickers. For example, like these toys: 1 2 3. I thought that would be a fun idea, considering both of them are arts and crafts!

The mains and lethals! The big ones.

Right out of the gate I knew the thing I wanted to do with the main characters was deliberately try to color code them, since I know that's what a lot of kid shows did and still kinda do today with their main charcaters:

Dandy=Yellow, Astro=Blue, Sprout=Red, Shelly=Orange, Vee=Green, Pebble=Purple.

One for each of Dandy's petals!

I easily had the most fun drawing Astro. It's so much fun to make him look all magical and stuff. And giving him the moon nose, that's also lots of fun.

I decided to flip the direction of Shelly's head to make it a little bit more clear on what she is, which ironically is being covered up by her hat here lol. So to improvise, I gave her hair buns that are kinda shaped like the fossil she's meant to be.

I included Dyle here too, no real reason to put him by himself lol. I kinda changed up his role in this AU too.

Breif summary: While he never showed up in the show itself, he did make a one time appearance in a direct to DVD movie for the show that released towards the end of the franchise's lifespan. He was a central character who went on an adventure with Dandy and the mains. He was a train conductor who controlled a magical train, which was the main transportation in the movie. At the end of the movie he gives the whole "we'll see eachother again" talk to Dandy and co. He gives Dandy a train whistle for him to remember Dyle by, and then Dyle leaves. He proceeds to never be seen again in any media for the franchise. No toys, no merch, no show or game appearances, the best he gets are brief appearances in a storybook that came out to coincide with the movie. Like if he were featured on a wiki, the best quality image of him would be a cut out picture from some random promo material or the movie itself.
