What happened to Chucky's burnt body, arms, and legs?


If Play Pals wanted to rebuild Chucky then why only use the head? What about the burnt body, arm and leg that were shot off? How do they convince the public that the doll is not malfuntioning with just a piece of it used with all new parts? The technicians who rebuilt Chucky are idiots.

I just assumed because the head was shown as being some sort of metal (which also seemed odd for a kids toy to have such a large metal piece but i digress), and the other body parts, especially arms and legs were soft rubber and couldnt just be buffed and repainted.

thats what i never understood. what is to examine if the doll is just a molten piece of nothing, just burnt up crispy carts, what is there to look for? i get they were looking for maybe something in the programming, maybe a practical joke, or if nothing at all and simply a boy's imagination.
when you replace just about every piece.. you wont really get the same result.

logically a company would get the remains and dispose of it quickly. nobody is going to revel in their failures. what kind of PR nightmare did they have? one child says their doll tried to kill them..and the world suddenly throws away the most popular doll in sales??? just doesnt really fit.

especially in this case where what would have happened is youd have the manufacturers finding a human heart thats been blown apart. he was turning human , so how much left was there to reconstruct?
theres many goofs in that reconstruction. even when you see on screen as they reassemble Chucky. they just pop that head on. its got a ball socket and they just pop it in the body. its an articulated head that has batteries in the body, you need some kind of wire to transfer that. cant just have a rubber socket.
its implausibility upon implausibility here.

it irks me that even when they rebuilt the doll , the CEO doesnt even care. a technician dies and the guy doesnt care at all. youd think theyd hold a press conference and show off that the doll is normal and has no defects.instead the CEO just tells his assistant to take it and do away with it.

how great would it have been to see a press conference or meeting where they try to prove the doll is normal. in that you could have Chucky do something eerie. would have been really effective to see that maybe the doll is a bit strange and show the company try to play it off as nothing.
i mean thats what the intent was, to have them be like 'hey here is the doll and look! its not trying to kill me!'.

I always assumed we only saw the head being repaired but the actual internal mechanics of the doll's body were rebuilt off camera. The limbs and clothes were new but the actual voice box was in the area where he took batteries so they likely tried repairing that.

I was actually hoping somebody posted something like this... and i actually said the same thing on a CP1 post... but why are people trying to find logic in a movie about a psycho murderer that transfered his soul into a doll using voodoo magic..

to me CP and all other movies of Chucky are just funny.. its something different from other movies, but the Chucky movies are always kinda the same. Though to me they are never boring.. you see some slight differences yes.. the quality gets a bit better and stuff.. but you know thats just the fun of this movie.. seeing a psycho doll killing everybody and failing at the end of it..

there is not much realism in CP or later sequels except for the part that people don't believe it when u tell them a doll killed everybody.. that also brings me to a little off topic subject which is: Why is this movie rated a 5,4... (and to be honest why is CP1 only a 6,4) people watch movies with too much expectations i guess.. always looking for flaws and *beep* to me though your just ruining your own movie experience.. yes its true that when u watch CP1 u see little Andy falling in a way that makes u think.. "wtf was that" or when Chucky swings a baseball bat to Andy's head, the bat and Andy's head are almost 1 meter away from each other.. yeah sure.. but why should things like that ruin a movie.. especially since the movie is that old.. please note that this part of me writing is not necessarily an attack on you (donl1282) i am just clearing my thoughts xD
