Crazy Clyde (or sometimes Crazy Carl) is a character and mascot that was used to promote the classic Gogo's Crazy Bones during 1996 all the way up until 2005. He was use mainly in Canada, the United States and most of Europe. He appeared in commercials, on the cover of books and guides, on the front of packages and even became a central character in the
Lost in Crazy Town video game and the HotShots Australian Crazy Bones comic.
Clyde is usually seen with a large grin and a crazy expression and in the commercial it is revealed he has an even crazier voice. He is usually seen wearing a green t-shirt and a red hat that is shaped like a large sock, but in some alternative art the color of his clothes change. He is supposed to represent the collector who is buying Crazy Bones. He is often seen in the artwork with a bag that is filled with his own collection or engaging in Crazy Bones games with a group of his friends. One of his friends is a girl named Roxy.

The
Mad Scientist is a character from the
Crazy Bones Bone Hunt flash game on the classic Crazy Bones website from the late 1990's and early 2000's. He is a creepy old man that works at the Crazy Bones Shipping Plant in Crazy Cove at long hours of the night. He appears to be a janitor that works there and he had accidentally opened one of the boxes of Crazy Bones and a few of them had escaped and he then proceeds to ask the player to go and find them for him. It is possible that he is actually the man who created the Crazy Bones as the official description calls him a 'mad scientist'.

Vladir is an evil wizard from the Brazilian
Buddies,
Mutants and
Ghosts series. According to the sticker album, in a distant land lived a master painter named Litgowl. He was skilled in drawing with such realism that his name was well known across the entire country. However, on a stormy night, Litgowl was visited by the evil sorcerer Vladir the Grey, who demanded the painter to make a portrait of him. Being pure of heart, Litgowl found himself unable to paint such vile being, which infuriated the sorcerer. By casting a curse on Litgowl, Vladir split the painter in many pieces representing his personality traits, which became the Ghost Gogo's. Each one of the little creatures retained a fragment of Litgowl's memories, but otherwise completely forgot their origin as a human. By investigating Litgowl's house, they eventually came across a blue chest containing the Gogotoys, who used to be Litgowl's childhood dolls. Since the story was never concluded, it's unknown if the Gogo's ever learned about their origins and confronted Vladir.
On a interesting note, the story explains that the term "Gogo" comes from Litgowl's childhood nickname.
