'''Wild West Town''' was a Wild-West-themed area of the pocket dimension inside [[Madame Tarsa's Toybox]]. | '''Wild West Town''' was a Wild-West-themed area of the pocket dimension inside [[Madame Tarsa's Toybox]]. | ||
Inhabited by some of Tarsa's living toys, the buildings, resembling “saloons and the like”, were actually plastic dollhouses. Likewise, the sand-covered ground was actually a huge, themed play mat. The town had a [[Frog Mayor|small toy frog]] as a Mayor. | == Nature == | ||
Wild West Town could be access through a door at the end of a long corridor within [[the Toymaker's Labyrinth]]. The doorway was located some way into the air, with one falling down in the middle of the Town when tumbling through the door; this made it difficult, though not impossible, for inhabitants of the Town to leave and explore other parts of the Toybox.

Inhabited by some of [[Madame Tarsa]]'s living toys, the buildings, resembling “saloons and the like”, were actually plastic dollhouses. Likewise, the sand-covered ground was actually a huge, themed play mat. The town had a [[Frog Mayor|small toy frog]] as a Mayor, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Time of the Toymaker (novel)|The Time of the Toymaker]]'') a [[Sheriff of Wild West Town|marionette sheriff]], and the [[Plush Posse]] for trouble-making outlaws. All horses in the Town were living rocking-horses, which left long trails instead of hoof marks, although they somehow emitted hoof-clattering sounds when they “galloped”. | |||
The Posse believed that a train going out of town would take them to “the big city”, though whether this city actually existed was something [[Larrikin-1029]] and [[Pessimist-242]] did not care to follow them to find out.

[[Larrikin-1029]] and [[Pessimist-242]] ended up in Wild West Town when first making their way through [[the Toymaker's Labyrinth]]. They were briefly mistaken for new members of the [[Plush Posse]] by the [[Sheriff of Wild West Town|Sheriff]]. After the real outlaws made their escape, pursued by the Sheriff, the two Cupids spoke with the [[Frog Mayer]] about the possibility of staying in town indefinitely, since the door was too high for them to go through again. However, after a few minutes' conversation with them, the Mayor came to believe that they were too annoying to keep around, as they might drive the population of the Town into the desert just to avoid them. As a result, the Mayor went back on his prior claim that he knew nothing of the world beyond the desert and fetched them a ladder so they could go back through the door.

[[Juliet-178]], [[Arganthone-056]] and [[Jenny Everywhere#Adventures with the Cupids|Jenny Everywhere]] visited Wild West Town in December 2020 when looking for a way to unfreeze [[Madame Tarsa]] in time for Christmas. They found the Town decorated with blinking Christmas lights and a huge papercraft of a Christmas tree tied to the Town Hall. The Frog Mayor did not know a solution himself, but gave them directions to [[Christmas Toyland]] where he thought they might find [[Millicent (The Time of the Toymaker)|the oldest toy in the Toybox]], in whom Tarsa may have confided helpful secrets.
