By 'needs' I mean sleeping/eating/drinking.
Now, I believe that drinking and eating is a given, they don't need to.
But, sleep, I'm not so sure about. Everything needs a power source. And that power source needs to gain the power in some way, correct? Even living things need it, and gain it through sleep/eating. Mechanical objects can gain it through a number of things: batteries, charging, a generator, power plant, etc. So, how do our favorite little ragdolls gain their power? They certainly don't run on batteries, or hook themselves up to a generator/power plant every few hours.
So, I guess what I'm saying is that they have more of a "shutdown" mode to let their bodies recharge and rest. Not really sleep per se. Another reason I believe that they have some sort of unconcious time is this picture:
(Ignore the writing XD)
It's quite obvious we're seeing from a character's point of view.
And when you add this picture:
You can piece a small bit of a scene together. Judging from the perspective of the first one, I'd guess we're seeing things at that moment from 9's POV. Probably waking up to 5 coming at him with scissors. One of the few reasons a movie ever jumps into one character's POV is when they're waking from a sleep or unconciousness. Which, I'm guessing, 9 most likely was. Giving us even even more reasons to believe that they do have some sort of ability to be unconcious.
The later picture (where he looks happy) must be after things're resolved, 9 is done freaking out, and 5 is now hanging the pair of scissors up.
I took the possible spoilers down until the forum goes back to black, I'll put then back then.
All this evidence can really only mean one thing, the ragdolls have some sort of shutdown or sleep mode.
So... opinions? It's something that's really been badgering me lately, and I wanted your guys' thoughts on it. (Also, I looked to see if there was a thread like this, and didn't find one. If I somehow missed it, I'm sorry for the repeat.) I also hope I did the spoilers right, it is my first time dealing with them... if a mod wishes to delete feel free, or just ask, and I'll delete it happily.
Don't worry you're good. And you did just fine with the spoilers. Better than some of our older members in fact. (Me for example XD)
