We aren't sure 15, he might have gotten killed, or maybe he was still inside the seamstress.

As of the new clip, I must say: 8's character has been butchered. Augh. He really is like the troll from 'Enchanted'. How disappointing.

^ Hmm... that's weird because after watching the new clip, I'm starting to like 8 more and more. Just the grunts and expressions on his face make me laugh and feel more for him. He's not as stupid as I thought he would be too (he DID listen to 9 and cut the cord when told to, brownie points for 8!) And I love 8 being 1's protector, such an awesome duo. Plus who didn't LOL when 8 was shaking 5 above the ground and cracked his knuckles when approaching 9? So intimidating!!

Well from our newest clip, 8 seemed to show the MOST expression, and that's whats making just love him even more. We also see him just be a jerk to poor 5, but this also goes back to 8 being 1's loyal bodyguard AND "bonucer" as quoted from the russian wiki.
But he really DOES care about the others, i mean look how he reacted when 1 went into the secret door to head outside, you see 8 and he looks towars 5 6 & 9 and makes this whimper kind of sound. So he DOES look after the others but 1 comes first (sorry about the pun).
I mean i guess 8 maybe sees 1 as a father-figure or grandfather-figure. This makes me think of this because i live with my oma, and i'd kill for her, i'd rather protect her than my friends. I mean I'd feel bad about helpping my friends, but she comes FIRST. And i guess thats how i connect to 8.

I loved the look on his face before he threw the scissorblade at the Winged Beast. If you ask me, thinking that quickly in a situation like that means he's not as dumb as most brutes are.

This reminds me of an old saying I used to say all the time... "I'm not saying I'm smarter than you! I'm just saying I'm less stupid!"

I don't think 8's going to be a complete idiot (the Wiki is trying to make him sound that way though I think). He thinks quickly on his feet when attacking the winged beast, he runs right into action to protect 1, and he can think for himself, did you see the emotions he portrayed when he turned to the other ragdolls as he left the cathedral with 1? Maybe he's considered the group 'numbskull' because he is blinded by his loyalty to 1 and risks his own life to save his leader. ... Oh yeah, and the fact he made that OOOOH face. XD WTF 8?!?! (Most likely that was when he was hypnotized by the seamstress.)
EDIT: ... Actually, after seeing the "OOO 8" clip again, the lighting in that shot is dark, so now I'm not so sure he does that when he's hypnotized by the seamstress. His face is not illumnated a bright blue like when 1 was hypnotized.

it just MIGHT be how the light is mixed with their material. I mean 8 looks more gray, while 1 looks more white/blue. 8 looks like his main colors are peach, and kinda dusty cream color, while 1's color seems to change from the light.
but over all i still think that that's the scene of 8 getting taken by the seamstress

I have this odd theory about 8, and it's a bit out there but I'll go for it anyway.
Each of the characters represent a certain aspect about the Scientist - 8 for some reason to me felt more like a filler character than an actual personification of anything. But then I thought, ok - if that were true then why, of all the dolls present when 8 first cameto be, does 8 attaches himself to 1? Why is 8 so seemingly immature despite his grown up voice and stature? For example, what kind of personality aspect gets a kick out of roughing up other dolls, and goes all googly eyes "Ooooh!" at a shiny light?
Then it hit me - what if 8 is supposed to be the personification of the Scientist as a youth? It would explain how 8 is both childish and thick-headed. Also, if the Scientist idolized his father, wouldn't that transcend into 8's personality, thus explaining his dedication to 1? I would love it if that were the case!!
