Hello everyone! I was wondering if I could get some TC help for a fanpet I'm working on; Pardo is based on Manny Pardo, a character from a video game called Hotline Miami 2. During a subplot of the game, he serves on the Miami police force as a detective during a string of killings by someone called the Miami Mutilator. Long story short, Pardo is actually the killer, who murders for the notoriety he never got as a detective. By the end of the game he becomes increasingly unhinged and by the game's finale he's barricaded himself in his apartment and suffers a series of hallucinations.

Now that the pertinent backstory is out of the way, I wanted some advice on getting TC items for him, since he's the next fanpet I'm gonna work on. Essentially anything related to cops, detectives, murder, gore (sans Bloodred items), and shotguns (since that's his signature weapon during his gameplay segments during Hotline Miami 2). I'm also potentially looking for a minion that resembles a ventriloquist dummy or a marionette, because that's a prominent figure in his hallucinations.

I appreciate any help I can get! :D

first two rows have some costume trunk items, the box of evidence gives you the case file, i think? it's an old plot reward i post on the pls-bring-this-item-back thread every so often p: (police notebook is a more recent plot reward, as well); harvested body parts are from an event i missed out on? some kind of survival shenanigans, anyway there's a few other ones (intestine, brains, and i think eyeball?) and the uh, goriness varies. my ceasefire is detective-adjacent so his tc might give you a few more ideas as well.

the closest i got to a minion was ; i thought we had a marionette minion but i guess not? there are some marionette toys, but they might be a little too cheery for hotline miami, haha

You da real MVP

Those items are a fantastic start! I'll definitely check out Ceasefire for more And I feel like the minion definitely works because of how creepy it looks (sorry Masq, but it's true)

Will this do?

EDIT: No, it won't because it's not a minion. slaps forehead I'm going to bed.

This is kinda close to a marionette? I mean it's a creepy clown, that counts, right? D:

this is the closest I could find to a Marionette, if you're still open for suggestions!

Hey guys! Sorry for the late responses to everyone, my Internet was being unrelentingly laggy for about a week and a half :/

While it's not a minion, that is 100% going in Pardo's treasure chest o Its so creepy, and looks incredibly similar to the one in the game!

I like the plushie; as gory as the game is, this little guy is pretty perfect

Emily is weirdly eerie, I'll definitely be grabbing her as well ^^
