Here, they along with Oswald were eventually forgotten and wound up in Wasteland. After Oswald was defeated by the Shadow Blot in the Blot Wars , they roamed throughout the land having nowhere else to go. The two managed to trap the Blot in the Thinner Jug , but at the cost of the bunny children's mother Ortensia , who sacrificed herself protecting Oswald from the Blot and was turned into an inert statue.
Meanwhile, their father Oswald devoted himself to guard the Jug, making sure the Blot never escaped, leaving the Bunny Children alone to roam around.
They have a massive appetite for Blotlings. To their father's distaste, they are quite fond of Mickey Mouse sometimes a little too fond. They mourn the loss of their mother, as some are found in Ortensia's house missing her.
When asked, Spector replied, "Of course! You don't think we'd create characters that cute and appealing and monstrous and not bring them back, do you? They are first mentioned by Ortensia in the museum while the projectors aren't working.
Ortensia will eventually travel to Ostown and find the Bunny Children missing as the quakes have scattered them all over Wasteland. Talking with her gives Oswald and Mickey a quest to return the Bunny Children to her.
One of the kids also makes a cameo in a cutscene with the Mad Doctor. Bunny Children also make an appearance in Epic Mickey: Path Painter , where they slow Mickey down when he passes through them. They appear in several levels, often spread out. They are a minor nuisance, but just like in the other games, they do not actually harm Mickey in any way unless, of course, they have eaten a Spatter.
These comics are a prequel to Epic Mickey and take place before the Thinner Disaster. Scary Night" and "There's a Hole in the Sky". They play a larger role in the comics than in Epic Mickey. They are quite the troublemakers, but most will gladly help Oswald and Ortensia when asked. They are all called "Oswald Junior" plus their number for example, "Oswald Junior the 42nd" and there are Bunny Children in total.
The Bunny Children can also talk in the comics, unlike in Epic Mickey where Mickey can't talk to them at all and can only communicate through cute squeaks. Unlike most other characters in the "Tales of Wasteland" comics, they don't have their own character profile. However, they are mentioned in Oswald and Ortensia's character profile. What happened next perhaps goes against the received wisdom that there is little room for sentimentality at multinational corporations.
The Walt Disney Corporation bided its time for 78 years. Then it got Oswald back. As Walt's first character, Oswald still had special significance for one of the world's most powerful brands.
Now the character features in the Epic Mickey series of video games, the latest instalment of which - Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two - has just been released. The plot of the games revolves around a world inhabited by 80 years of "forgotten" Disney characters. Oswald already features in Disney merchandise and can be spotted by the eagle-eyed at the theme parks. Oswald is so old, he's new again," says Jerry Beck, animation historian, author and blogger at Cartoon Brew.
We have no expectations for Oswald, so the studio can use him in new ways. Not everyone is a Disney fan, but it's hard not to marvel at the sheer enormity of the proliferation of Mickey Mouse, backed by a marketing juggernaut. It is strange to think that the same machine could have been applied to an entirely different character. His durability is important in a transient world where books, TV shows, and films last a few years and then are cast out into the dustbin of history.
