Title: lookalikes
Post by: UnfluffyBunny on September 11, 2009, 12:31:56 AM
i've seen ALOT of lookalikes ingame, so I thought we might have a thread to muse on ones we've seen ingame, or post some we've made for ourselves.
here's a few really obvious ones (note these were just made in the designer for fun, not use in game)

Ha, glad you started this UB, I was thinking about doing it myself!  I've seen some great ones already, mostly Hulk and the like, but I've also seen a surprisingly number of Optimus Primes, believe it or not.  There were a few movie versions, but also one rather excellent G1 version.  I was actually impressed.  I don't really know WHY you'd want to play a superhero game as a 6 ft. Optimus that can't transform, but at least it isn't as goofy as the 50 Hulk's running around.  I'm going to have to get quicker with my screenshot finger so I can document some of these guys for posterity. 

By the way, that is an awesome Skeletor.  I almost don't mind people who do such obscure things like that.

Here's my Wolverine lookalike.  I saw a near perfect Flash, and a few great Phoenix/Jean Greys.
I actually wouldn't mind joining an X-men supergroup for poos and giggles.

I saw a dead-on Rogue (green and yellow cosutme with brown jacket) but couldn't get a screen capture.

I caught just a glimpse of a pretty good Superman yesterday, but he was up, up, and away before I could snap a picture.  Nice Wolverine, DM.  I'm surprised they don't have a better mask for him.

I finally managed to catch a few on "film":

Hellboy, looking a little short:

And your average Batman:

I've only been playing a few days, and I've only seen three look-alikes, but I didn't take pics: Two Hulks (one of which was too light a shade of green, a bit too skinny and packing guns!) and a Batman (colored blue and gray but with the no oval bat logo)

Saw someone who did a bad attempt at a Superman, but it was so badly done I don't consider it a look-alike. (Only realized what he was supposed to be due to the name and color scheme; didn't even have a cape)

Post by: UnkoMan on September 15, 2009, 06:49:33 AM
I've seen a ton of Batmen, a few Hulks and one Superman. Quite a few Dragon Ball characters.

I also saw one Tombstone, the same day I had made a Tombstone and was playing with Benton for a while. It had the colours of the promo art (grey/purple) and a skull and crossbones on the cape, but there it was.

Post by: Xenolith on September 15, 2009, 12:25:14 PM
I've seen the Hulk several times during close and open beta, and now since the game has launched.  All three times the toons name has been spelled Hullk.  I wonder if it's the same guy?

Saw a Spawn (actually named Spawn) yesterday, and I think I saw an Iron Man also (was definitely someone with red and gold armor, but they moved off before I could see their name or get a good look at them).

Since I made my last post in this thread, I've seen about three more Spawns (and I think the one C6 posted may be one of them), a definite Iron Man, two Green Lanterns (Hal Jordan version), a couple of Snake-Eyes, a Deadpool colored black instead of red (trust me; it was a wrong-colored Deadpool, not another Snake-Eyes), The Shadow, someone I *think* may have been a badly done Solid Snake, and a Nightcrawler.

Very surprised I haven't seen any more Hulks or any Dragonball Z characters at all.

I've seen that Magneto!
And, surprisingly, a different Dick Tracy. I also saw a Martian Manhunter that looked real odd with no straps.

I really like that Hulk.

I was in a PVP match with a Sub Zero, but instead of ice powers he was a gadgeteer for some reason.

PS: I also just ran into Dracula.

One guy i was playing with said he saw an Ace and Gary!
I saw that Dick Tracy last night too,  codename Richard Tracy.
A Thor, named Thor that looked a little odd. oh and Grey Hulk, which kinda sucked.

Man in that pick with the Dick Tracy look alike I see a couple of more look alikes. Like The Undertaker, Silent Snake,and that shorty from Star Wars

Yep, we noticed the Undertaker. :)

Is that the spawn from when we teamed a week ago?

It looks like there is a Storm lookalike in the hulk pic too.

There's a hero I know whose player is a wrestling fan and he has Bret Hart and Jim `The Anvil' Neidhart costumes as alternate outfits. He also has another costume that looks like Jesse Ventura with a traffic cone on his head, but I don't know if that's intentional or not. He's never outright said its supposed to be Jesse Ventura, but people have commented on it.

I made a hero named Thing That Should Not Be (wouldn't let me put `The' at the front of it), and his human disguise is Hulk Hogan.

I don't know if it would get generic'd, but I'm tempted to make a hero who is a cross between Papa Smurf and pro wrestler `Big Poppa Pump' Scott Steiner. Too bad you can't make a goatee with a different colored stripe down the middle of it.
