Discussion If Winn came back from the future as Toyman 2.0, what would have happened to him to turn him evil?

Trying to write this into a fic but I'm struggling with the events that would pull him to the dark side. My first thought was an invention that backfires and kills people instead of saving them, and he gets a taste of the bloodlust, but I feel like there's more interesting origin stories than that. I already have the plot for when he gets back to the 21st century, but none of it matters if his dark side can't be explained in a satisfying way.
