Ok, so I was thinking of Concept Unification and each of the characters in it. I was thinking about researching about The history of The Wink, but then I realized something. Munch Jr is the only one of the retrofitted prop characters who seems out of place, and then it hit me. Maybe Munch Jr is just the Choo Choo Munch Retrofit (CU Prototype) with a Hat added. This makes sense Since They look like the Munch Choo Choo retrofit concept art. The only issue is the single tooth and not 3, but this could have been done later.
This is just a theory, not like some big data drop and discovery so don’t take this as proof, just an observation/theory.

I never thought of that, that could definitely be a likely thing. Maybe the prototype one did have 3 teeth and they modified it for the mass produced one.

Yeah, I think it’s likely. Especially since, To my knowledge at least, we’ve never seen Montford’s stage’s Munch Jr during the CU prototype or early Cu stages, with the earliest Munch Jr stuff we have being from the Installation Tape which can’t be Montford since it was already retrofitted into the Cu prototype stage (unless the Installation tape’s rock a fire segments were recorded before CU prototype and then CEC segments after then I doubt it).
OK Small update. The Footage in the CU Premiere Tape (The 1990 Animatronic One not the Actual Showtape) shows Montford’s Munch Jr, who has not Hat. So yeah, Munch Jr was most likely the prototype Munch Choo Choo.
