Chosen Character gets removed as soon as original player character loads back in

I have a character selection gui script that works great on normal R15 rigs but with this new skinned mesh model the chosen character gets removed as soon as the players original character is loaded back in. i tried placing a wait on the ondied function and that didnt work it just delayed the issue. I tried having the script move the chosen character into the StarterPlayer area and that worked but it messed up the camera and took much longer to run for whatever reason but this makes me believe the model is built correctly and SHOULD work. heres the script.

local Content = script.Parent.MainFrame.ScrollingFrame.Content
local Characters = game.ReplicatedStorage.Characters
local SetSubject = Characters.Parent.SetSubject


for index,item in pairs(Characters:GetChildren()) do
	if item:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		
		local ViewportFrame = Instance.new("ViewportFrame")
		ViewportFrame.Parent = Content
		ViewportFrame.BackgroundTransparency = 1	
		
		local Button = Instance.new("TextButton")
		Button.Parent = ViewportFrame
		Button.Position = UDim2.new(0,0,1,0)
		Button.Size = UDim2.new(1,0,0,15)
		Button.BorderSizePixel = 0
		Button.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,255,255)
		Button.Text = "Spawn"
		Button.TextScaled = true

		local Preview = item:Clone()
		Preview.Parent = ViewportFrame

		local Camera = Instance.new("Camera")
		Camera.Parent = ViewportFrame
		Camera.CFrame = Preview.Head.CFrame + Preview.Head.CFrame.LookVector * 10
		Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(Camera.CFrame.Position,Preview.Head.Position)

		ViewportFrame.CurrentCamera = Camera

		Button.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
			script.Parent.Enabled = true
			local ChosenCharacter = item:Clone()
			local CurrentCharacter = Player.Character
			local LocalScripts = {}

			for index2,item2 in pairs(game.StarterPlayer.StarterCharacterScripts:GetChildren()) do
				if item2:IsA('LocalScript') then
					table.insert(LocalScripts,item2:Clone())
				else
					item2:Clone().Parent = ChosenCharacter
				end
			end

			CurrentCharacter.Health:Clone().Parent = ChosenCharacter
			table.insert(LocalScripts,CurrentCharacter.Animate:Clone())     
			ChosenCharacter.Parent = workspace
			Player.Character = ChosenCharacter
			for index2,item2 in pairs(LocalScripts) do
				item2.Parent = ChosenCharacter
			end 
			SetSubject:FireClient(Player,ChosenCharacter.Humanoid)

			local Connection

			local function onDied()
				wait(game.Players.RespawnTime)
				Player:LoadCharacter()
				script.Parent.Enabled = true
				if Connection then
					Connection:Disconnect()
				end
			end

			Connection = ChosenCharacter.Humanoid.Died:Connect(onDied())

			end)
		end
	end
