“Every great company needs a vision.
Ours just happens to meow, bark, and speak fluent tuba.”

(deeply concerned, mostly delighted)
Now come meet the chaos.

it's sax

#colorsandshapes
TOPSY
Topsy is an exploration machine that can’t contain the excitement.
See a new color? Hop — a jump.
Eyes sparkle like stars when shapes come up.
Every game is a little bit of curiosity, a little bit of a dance floor.
"While we were trying to adjust Topsy's excitement level, the animation software crashed. We gave up and just went with it."

#scienceexploder
FIZZBO
Fizzbo skips the instructions and pokes the beaker first.
Science feels like a playground — full of curious “what-ifs” and joyful “oops!”
Mixing, testing, shaking… and cleaning up foam (sometimes).
Voiced by: Bongo drums — because science is louder when you’re excited.
“We programmed a cause-and-effect engine. He caused. We dealt with the effects.”

#drawing
FANTINO
#drawyourdreams
Fantino doesn’t just draw
what’s seen —
draws what could be.
Clouds become castles,
lines turn
into laughter,
and colors
don’t stay
in the lines
(because
the lines
are barely noticed).
Not messy.
Just... interpretive.
"He once drew a sun with seven moons around it. We printed it. It sold out."
- existential crayonist
(Binki art team)
Voiced by: Trompet — bold, bright, and a little lost in a daydream.
Voiced by: Accordion — clever, flexible, and always two steps ahead.
QUIX
Quix sees the world as a series of patterns — and a chance to outsmart them.
Problems are puzzles, solutions are solos, and logic? Just another kind of rhythm.
Quick to think, quicker to twist things around until they click.
If you hear music and muttering, Quix is probably debugging something theatrically.
#codeandlogic
#patternbreaker
"We hired Quix for logic puzzles. We got a full operetta. It works. We’re just not sure how."
— CEO
(who gave up understanding after week two)
Voiced by: Koto — a string for every
feeling.
#sharingmaster
#mathematics
Numzy loves to add, loves to divide… but sharing pizza is the real favorite.
Very good with numbers — especially the tasty ones.
NUMZY
"We gave Numzy a pizza, he turned the division into a storyboard. We're still hungry."
- snack-based pedagogy

Voiced by: bass guitar — one note behind, but with heart.
#oopsIdiditthewordagain
#language
Bumbles tries their best to speak clearly... but words sometimes trip over those big paws.
Loves stories, rhymes, and asking “what does that mean?”
Deep down, a storyteller — even if the words tumble out a little funny.
BUMBLES
"He once spent an hour saying ‘thesaurus.’ We gave him a sticker and moved on.."
- typo wrangler
(Binki script team)
Voiced by: Cello — slow, deep, and extremely committed to rest.
#movement
#slowandstretched
KOOLO
Koolo moves at their own pace.
(Which is… not fast.)
But when movement happens, it’s graceful — like a slow dance with gravity.
Stretching is an art form, naps are preparation,
and balance? A state of mind (and limb).
"He called yawning a warm-up. We didn’t argue."
- reluctant animatorr
(Binki code team)
Jiffy opens every box with curiosity — and a quiet urge to reorganize everything inside.
A surprise expert, puzzle flipper, and drawer explorer.
Rules? Totally followed.
Just... reshaped into something a bit more exciting.

JIFFY
Voiced by: Baglama — fast fingers, faster ideas.
"He turned the sorting algorithm into a guessing game. It was kind of fun. And wrong."
— semi-approving developer
(Binki code team)
Voiced by: Tuba —
low, careful,
and occasionaly
heroic.
#quietcourage
#differentlanguage
PUDGY
Pudgy listens more than speaks.
New words are exciting — and a little scary.
But there’s quiet courage in every try.
Progress is slow… and surprisingly loud (thanks, tuba).
“Hello” is a big deal.
.
“Nothing teaches empathy like watching Pudgy try.”
— CPO
(with tears in their notebook)
Voiced by: Toucan — bright, loud, and always correct (just ask them).

#curiousowlclub
GLOBO
Globo doesn’t just ask “where” — Globo asks “why there, and how did it get that name?”
A proud passport stamp collector (with no actual passport),
always ready with a proverb, a flag fact, or a story that starts with “in some parts of the world...”
"We asked Globo for one cultural fact. Globo replied with 47. In alphabetical order."
— cultural content intern
(still scrolling))
Voiced by: fagot — because someone has to headline the recital.
#hooftapstar
#music
BRAVO
Bravo doesn't play music — Bravo performs.
Every note is a spotlight, every pause is a pose.
With hooves that tap like metronomes and a voice like velvet wood,
Bravo turns practice into applause.
Critics? fans.
Mistakes? Interpretations.
“Bravo tuned the room just by walking in. We’re still not sure if that’s allowed.”
— rehearsal director
(Binki music team)
Voiced by: a kid — because grown-ups don’t ask enough questions.
#socialemotional
#feelingsniffer
WAGGLES
Waggles wants to understand… everything.
“Why is that face like that?” “Are you sad?” “Did I do something wrong?”
Feelings are puzzles, and Waggles is here to sniff them out.
Sometimes it’s messy, sometimes it’s loud — but it’s always honest.
.
“Waggles once apologized to a chair. We applauded anyway.”
— real feedback analyst
(still recovering)
Voiced by: a kid pretending to be a cat — and very serious about it.

#purrfectionist
Tidyra doesn’t like mess.
Or crooked labels. Or crumbs. Or toothpaste caps left off.
Every sock has a soulmate. Every shelf has a mission.
When everything is in place, there’s a soft, satisfied purr.
When it’s not… the purr gets louder.
TIDYRA
“She alphabetized the recycling bins. Then corrected our color coding..”

Voiced by: 🤫 We can't tell yet. But it's gonna be weird. And wonderful.
#whoisnext
#newfriendloading
A new character is getting ready…
Somewhere in the world, a sock is being matched,
a bug is being squished, or a banana is being overanalyzed.
Whatever it is — they’re almost here. They’re on their way. Probably sideways.
“They haven’t arrived yet. But we’re already cleaning up after them.”
