[[ | A '''Baby Globox''' is one of [[Globox]] and [[Uglette|Uglette's]] 650 children. Along with their parents, baby Globoxes first appear in ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and its remakes, where it appears that a large number of them are prisoners held on [[the Buccaneer]]. Those who had not been captured appear either individually or in groups, and are usually seen cheering [[Rayman]] on or crying for [[Globox|their missing father]]. Baby Globoxes reappeared in ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' with a significant change in their appearance. | ||

In ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'', [[Rayman]] is having a picnic with several babies when the [[Rabbid]]s attack and capture them. The babies are used by the [[Rabbid]]s in several mini-games. When [[Rayman]] finally escapes, he has a revelation that he was being forced to show the [[Rabbid]]s how to do things, which they would ultimately try to use on the baby Globoxes. [[Rayman]] desperately tries to go back for the babies but becomes stuck in a hole. The fate of the babies is unknown. | |||

Most of the baby Globoxes are the same color as their father [[Globox]], an indication that a large number of them are male, though there are a few of them that are found in colors other than blue-green. These particular Globoxes can be found in the [[Globox Village]] and [[Globox's House]], and are playable characters in the bonus mini-games involving baby Globoxes. Female Globoxes are generally as a rule some shade of red, usually pink. | |||

[[ | === Names from [[Baby Football]] === | ||
[[ | In the [[Baby Football]] multiplayer minigame (which is exclusive to ''[[Rayman Revolution]]''), if the player inputs a code (tapping L2, R2, L2, R2, L2, R2, all while holding L1 and R1), names appear over the heads of each of the baby Globoxes. The names which appear over the male blue babies are Reno, Arno, Poc and Druid; and the names which appear over the heads of the pink female babies are Coach, Iki, Lolo and Mike. [[Hardrox]], who is the referee of the baby Globoxes' football match, has the name "Steve" appear over his head. All of these names are either first names or nicknames of developers who worked on the game, and all can be seen during the game's credits. | ||

At the time ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' had been released, the baby Globoxes had been redesigned, and appear in a number of French adverts for Unicef in which a [[Rabbid]] would treat one unfairly, for example, it would eat a lot of food but not give the baby Globox any, until Rayman would come along and pull down a blind which had messages in French saying "I have the right to eat!". | [[Image:RayUnicef.jpg|thumb|right|320px|A baby Globox feeling unfairly treated in one of the Unicef commercials.]] | ||

Three of these adverts were made and they were to raise awareness of the rights of children in a humorous manner, particularly those in third world countries. The messages were: | |||
