Product Information

Rabbids, also known as Raving Rabbids and in France as Lapins crétins ("moronic rabbits"), is a video game franchise published by Ubisoft. It originated as a spin-off video game from the Rayman series, 2006's Rayman Raving Rabbids, and is centered on a fictional species of mischievous rabbit-like creatures known as Rabbids, who speak gibberish and scream wildly whenever they experience an adrenaline rush. The series consists mainly of party video games, though other genres have been explored as well. Trikeboy Your points here are fair. Yes, it would be better to skip the "slavish imitation" or "borrowing" stage directly. For me, this issue is a little more nuanced, though. a b Alex Navarro (2006-11-19).

It might have Rayman in the title, but the real stars of the show are the adorably bizarre raving rabbids. Spawny appears with Bowser Jr. at the beginning of Donkey Kong Adventure, where he fires a beam at the Time Washing Machine after Rabbid Kong enters it, causing it to close. Beep-0 informs Mario that the SupaMerge had been corrupted upon entering the Mushroom Kingdom, and he agrees to find Spawny. However, just as Mario and co. are about to catch Spawny on a tower overlooking Ancient Gardens, Bowser Jr. appears and befriends Spawny. Mario and co. traverse the three other worlds and eventually defeat Bowser Jr. in his mech, Mecha Jr., retrieving Spawny in the process as well as reuniting with Yoshi. However, the portal over the Mushroom Kingdom releases a dragon named the Megabug, which captures Spawny and harnesses his power to unleash more beings. Mario and co. end up defeating the Megabug and freeing Spawny and Bowser (who had also been corrupted by the Megabug). Spawny is then seen in the pre-credits scene, where he admires the statue erected in honor of Rabbid Peach.

A live-action/animated movie based on the franchise was in the works by Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
