Herbie, Popeye, bat, and where can I find...

[daglob]

These may already exist, and if so, I would love to know where they are.

Herbie, prefferably with bopping lollipop (love alternate with plunger on head)

Popeye (Fleischer, Paramount, any)

bat (vampire, flying fox, any old bat)

... and I'd like to find two meshes that I know exist (or existed): Texas Jack's Plastic Man and Draven's Phantom. I have Plastic Man Buff, and someone (Figure Fan, I believe-I can't find the post I read) posted a link to the keyframes (Many thanks, whoever you are), but I'd like to get the original. I have The Laughing Mask (which uses the Phantom mesh), and, while I can see the holsters on Nifscope, I don't know enough about the program to "unhide" them, or give him access to his guns.

Many thanks in advance

Are you looking for a to-scale bat mesh/nif, or a giant one?  And are you thinking of using it for a hero file?  I recall someone editing the skin/nif for the pigeons in the game to resemble bats, but I don't remember who it was.  I want to say either Cmdrkoenig or CherokeeBlackjack, but I'm not certain.  That's the only one I'me familiar with.

Not sure what "Herbie" you're looking for, so an image might help.  The only one that comes to mind is the VW bug.  :D

I was wanting the bat for a vampire-like character. It occurred to me that with the Shapeshift attribute I could let her change into a bat and a tiger (she isn't a real vampire-she's an alien). I could also make use of Atomic Robot's Bela Lugosi skin.

The Herbie I was referring to is a comic book character from the 1960s. He was published by American Comics Group, the same people that brought us Nemesis, Magicman, and Magic Agent. If you don't know who they are, you aren't the only one. You probably don't know who Spyman, The Golden Gladiator, or Miracles Inc. are either (and you're probably better off).

Herbie was short, fat, and had an odd way of talking. He could walk on air, travel through time and space, and was the physical match for any muscleman so long as he could bop 'em with his lollypop. Like Droopy in the MGM cartoons, he was the most powerful character there was. All the stories were whimsical, some were satirical. When the superhero craze hit, he put on some long johns with a sign on the front that said "Fat Fury", tied a cape around his neck, and put on a ski-mask kind of thing, and began to satirize the capes and tights crowd. For some reason he also wore a plunger on top of his head. Nowadays, he would probably not be considered politically correct.

Male Rotund and Male Stocky don't quite fit the bill, although I've seen a Bouncing Boy mesh that is close.

How DO you put a picture in the post, anyway?

I'll check out CMNDRKoenig for a bat. Thanks.

...I swear I've seen a Spyman skin out there before.
As for Herbie... I requested this once, a loooong time ago. It requires a brand new mesh, from scratch, though. I don't know if anybody has enough love for the fella to do him right. Me, if I could mesh, I'd be all over that.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbie_Popnecker There's a link.

As for Plastic Man, send me a PM with an email address I can send it to, and it'll be on its way.

I made bat FX a while back(by hexing and reskinning the butterflies FX from FF1)...I never released it (I really should at some point) and I don't know if it can be used as a character (I kind of doubt it)...Pics below...
