Toggle is a playable character in LittleBigPlanet 3. She is one of the legendary heros of Bunkum.
History
Long ago, three gluttonous gargoyles, the feared Titans, threatened to attack Bunkum and fed on the planet's inspiration, right from the Creative Heart. The inspiration dried up. The atmosphere was terrific, of pure chaos. But to the inhabitants content, three brave heroes showed up and with their mythical abilities were able to defeat the Titans, all by themselves. Within this group of heroes lied Toggle. However, when the world of Bunkum returned to its natural environment, of harmless fun and good imagination, the three heroes lost their motivation and, unchallenged, returned to their sanctuaries where they had once lived, and lost their Marbles through the lands of Bunkum. They had never been seen ever since. Toggle spent its days in the caves beneath the Ziggurat, wallowing in its underwater lakes, contemplating a life of pure relaxation, in a temple of old ballet shows, appreciating the art of dancing and grace.
Story
LittleBigPlanet 3
Prologue
Toggle is mentioned by Newton and Nana Pud.
Manglewood
Toggle is mentioned by Marlon Random.
The Ziggurat
Sackboy is sent by Marlon to retrieve Toggle next, in The Ziggurat. In the temples of the Ziggurat she meets the noble chief Papal Mache informs Sackboy about the location of Toggle's Marbles.
She sends her in search for the Marbles in a runaway post service steam powered dragon train, where the marble replaces the eye of the beast, in the kingdom's furnance room,inside a shelter, where they're aided by a Yeti, and finally in a mysterious labyrinth in the kindom's library. Once all the Marble are retrieved, Papal will insert them in Toggle's Statue, opening the door to his Santuary.
Papal and Sackboy set in search for Toggle, deep in the temple, and eventually find her, and she has no choice but to respond to the gang's call of duty. The three prepare to leave the sanctuary but, while passing through an old gate, they're separated by it, and, while Sackboy has to settle on her own, Papal and Toggle find they're way off the wrecking ballet stages that fill Toggle's Sanctuary. The two are able to escape, while Papal reminds Toggle how to use her abilities to escape. The two are finally able to get out the sanctuary and back into the temples, where Papal Mache directs Toggle, Oddsock and Sackboy on search for the last hero, Swoop, in Bunkum Lagoon.
As the three heroes make their way out of the Ziggurat Main Hall, they come across a scheeming Newton, and unleashes one of the Titans, the Yellow Titan. The Titan starts to collect a series of chains and locks, interconnected to create a gigantic chain monster that attacks the gang as Newton escapes for the Creative Heart. Toggle, running through the libraries, destracts the chain monster until a large wall falls on it, destroying it. The three heroes set back into their way to Bunkum Lagoon, through one of Ziggurat's elevators.
Bunkum Lagoon
Toggle is later seen inside of one of Pinky Buflooms bird skyrails, where she threatens them she'll push them off. However, they're attacked by Newton who throws a bomb at them, throwing Sackboy out of the skyrail, only to be saved by Swoop, who awakens from her sanctuary, the sky. Pinky orders Toggle, along with Sackboy, to direct themselves to Newton's spider-hat robot lair.
She is then seen inside the robot, where she needs to pull a switch in order to free Sackboy from her prison and later witnesses Newton's last encounter, where she unleashes the final Titan on them, freeing her from their control. Toggle fights the Titan monster, who has taken possesion of a robot, by throwing bomb inside his mouth. After the Titan is destroyed, she and the other heroes and Newton sky fall into Bunkum Lagoon, however they're saved by Newton's father, Captain Pud, who was just roaming about with his air force.
Finally, she is last seen when Newton fixes the warp back to Craftworld again and he jumps right in, as Newton, Nana Pud and Captain Pud wave goodbye.
LittleBigPlanet 3: The Journey Home
Back in Craftworld, Larry Da Vinci and Victoria Von Bathysphere are preparing a party in their honour, waiting for their return. However, the heros warp in sooner then expected, zapping through the yet to prepare party, accidently taking Larry with them. They all land in The Wedding, where they divide into groups, Toggle's task being to find Frida, to bring her to the party.
Toggle follows Frida within the realms of her tombs, riding on her new railing system and, at the same time, helping Larry by finding some stamps that got warped across Craftworld with them. She proceeds to glue the stamps to The Collector's invitation.
They all meet again at the party, where they have fun with the guests and take a lot of fun photos with the inhabitants of Craftworld.
Character
Toggling
Toggle is a mythical hero with the exceptional ability of changing, or toggling, between two forms: Little Toggle and Big Toggle. However, her toggling abilities seem to go way farther them simple shapeshifting abilities. Big Toggle and Small Toggle are rather two beings in the same body, but can't coexist at the same time, seeing how they have different personalities and styles. When one form toggles to another, its like one identity dissapeared to let the other one exist. It is unknown if they share memories, but it is rather likely that they do.
Toggle can be switched between her Big and Small counterparts for easy testing purposes, such as enabling mechanisms of sorts.
Big Toggle
Big Toggle is often seen as the 'default' form of Toggle.
Personality
Big Toggle might look intimidating, however, she is all bark no bite. She is a caring soul, of rather silly reactions, and is, ironically, less mature than Little Toggle. Very clumsy and easily distracted, she seems to take interest in ballet. Despite her mostly harmless behaviour, seeing how she is more passifist than her counterpart, she can still get annoyed if someone crosses the line, however due to her good nature, its usually uneffective.
Appearance
Big Toggle is bigger and wider than the other heros. Her overall shape resembles a pear and her skin is light beige, in a canvas like material. Her eyes are black flat beads and she has a wide mouth that is almost always smiling. Her legs are short but her arms are long with little fingers,
Abilities
In Big Toggle form, she is physically stronger than Sackboy but at the cost of her weight. In this form Toggle is apparently too heavy for Swoop to carry.
Small Toggle
Personality
In contrast to Big Toggle's outgoing personality, Little Toggle is rather feisty and grumpy. She tends to get more physical and is the one out of the two that is more easily flustered.
Appearance
Little Toggle's overall shape is a rectangle, with a rather flat head. Her face is mostly on the upper most part of her body, with two black flat bead eyes and a wide mouth. Her texture is canvas-like and a soft beige, and her arms are as long as her body is, with tiny legs. She is very small when in comparison to most other characters.
Abilities
In Little Toggle form she can walk faster, walk on water, jump higher and crawl through very small spaces.
Relationships
Sackboy
Sackboy and her are now close friends and "colegues" in their job of protecting the Imagisphere. The two are good team workers, but very little is known about their opinions on each other.
Swoop
Toggle and Swoop used to be partners as the legendary heroes of Bunkum before their years of quarenteen, and they're still very tight.
Oddsock
Toggle and Oddsock also used to be partners during the Titan era, before they got apart. Now that they're reunited they're glad they're back together and look at each other like a team they are.
Papal Mache
Papal Mache seems to be, of all the Creator Curator and overall inhabitants of the Imagisphere, the one that's closest to Toggle. The two knew each other previous to the events of the closure of the heroes and it seems that Papal lent his temples, and his undergrounds ballet studios, for the benefit of Toggle, as her santuary resting site. Additionally, there is a big statue of Toggle in The Zigguratt Grand Hall, proving their previous relationship, and the fact that Papal knew where her Marbles were proves they had history together.
Papal is happy and excited when Toggle gets freed, and he also recognizes Little Toggle's temper.

Trivia
- Toggle is said to dislike the term "One Size fits all.", yet the Week One T-Shirt for LittleBigPlanet 3 said One Size fits all, and yet again Big Toggle's is small on it, and Little Toggle's is too big.
- Toggle can sometimes lock into Big Toggle or Small Toggle. The only way to fix it is to kill yourself.
- In the manual, it has been said she hates to argue with herself and likes getting twice as many birthday presents.
- Like the other 2 new characters, Toggle can be customized in almost exactly the same way as Sackboy, bearing custom skins and clothing that can be saved as outfits for later use. In the latest update, they do mix, but they are not both saved.
