How tall?
 
Hi I'm just taking notes for my fan fic
as you know thats in the works... and I was wondering if any one could be so kind to give me some info please.

How tall would Abe be compared to me? I'm 5'5ft so I could be fairly short "blushes" least I'm not as short as Munch (I don't think he'd like that lol)
I know for sure Stranger would tower over me...

Dipstikk 02-13-2005 12:56 PM

Since there are no humans to compare him to, I'm not sure. I'd say around 6 feet, though, based soley on the "Get Freaky" video.

Oddish 02-13-2005 01:16 PM

Abe is 6'0 ft tall.

odd chick 02-13-2005 02:26 PM

Do you all remember that picture in the last newspaper in MO where all of the muds and Munch are lined up as if to get a mug shot? Well, by looking at that, it looks like Abe is around 6 feet like you all said and Munch would be around 4 1/2-5 feet.

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-13-2005 02:26 PM

Okay Abe would most likely tower me lol

odd chick 02-13-2005 02:28 PM

Me too, Angel fox. I'm 5'6. :D

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-13-2005 03:00 PM

Lol
Okay how tall do you think Stranger would be in ft?

odd chick 02-13-2005 03:02 PM

I have no idea, but he looks huge! I'm just guessing when I say this, but probably Shaq-sized; at least 6 1/2 feet or over. Or maybe even close to 7 feet.

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-13-2005 03:54 PM

Yep I'd say that he could be 7 that would mean my head be just below his chest.Looks up "okay he's quite tall....epp..."
Oh by the way where can I find this newspaper in MO you were talking about?

Dipstikk 02-13-2005 04:45 PM

Well, compared to Casteraider, he's quite small. And didn't they say that Stranger's very small for a Steef? I'm guessing he'd be about Abe's size, if not a tad shorter.

Voodoo Hand 02-13-2005 05:28 PM

Well if Stranger is 6' 6" then most of the bosses must be like 9 feet tall, because they
tower over him.

Dipstikk 02-13-2005 05:38 PM

Yeahm so he might be under 5.5 feet tall.

Leto 02-13-2005 08:30 PM

I wouldn't think he'd be that short... Otherwise, the clakkerz would be complete midgets. Like, 3 feet.

Well, I don't have a pic of the paper, but here's the pic that I was talking about that was in the paper. ;) The problem is, though that Abe is standing sideways in the pic and his back is not against the wall so that we can see his actual height. But by looking at the two muds that are standing with their backs against the wall and assuming that most muds are similar in height, then Abe is probably pretty close to 6 feet if not just a tad bit under. And Munch isn't completely against the wall, either. But you can still assume his height just by looking at him compared to the muds.

Stranger is taller than the Doc, and Vykkers are taller than Mudokons… I say Stranger is fairly large. I mean tall. *cheeky grin*

Abes Fellow Friend 02-14-2005 12:28 PM

People If were talking about the size of OW characters here,I would put it like this,Abe would yes be around six feet tall,same with all Mudokons,also I would say Mudokons would have huge hands I mean.Their slaps are deadly,I bet if a Mudokon slapped one of us humans,we would be almost killed.Now I would like to talk about Munch's size,I'd say about four feet or anything around in there,but he would have a head size about the size of your computer monitor,lol.And Sligs would be short,but big bro sligs,they would be HUGE and buff,like 9 feet tall.Then Glukkon's would be also really tall,and their heads would also be pretty fat,but glukkons I really like also.Yeah Vykkers are taller then Mudokons,I got chased by one in Munch's Oddysee.So that's all I know?

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-14-2005 12:35 PM

Vykkers are creepy "shivers" are they about 7 foot something?

Abes Fellow Friend 02-14-2005 12:39 PM

Angel-Fox-crescent,I would say so about...the Glukkons Might..be the same hight as Big Bro Sligs.

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-14-2005 12:54 PM

How tall is that then?

smerles 02-14-2005 12:59 PM

Blue's clues...

How about asking ALF?

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-14-2005 01:31 PM

Well I reckon Alf would be the same height as Abe, in fact... at least I think I do any way,
all muds seem to be 6ft.
Okay now for the wildlife I think a scarb is at least 7 or even 8 ft tall while a paramite would be hmmm... 3'ft 7?

Oddish 02-14-2005 01:48 PM

About...

Big Bros: 8'7ft
Sligs: 4'6ft
Vykkers: 9'0ft
Glukkons: 9'9ft
Interns:9'0ft

On some pictures bigBros should of been much tall, or mabey it depening how much steriods they take, or have.

Where did you find that info, Oddish? If Vykkers are about 9 feet (and I assume that they are all close in height) and Stranger is taller than the Doc, then that would mean that Stranger is around 9 1/2-10 feet?? That sounds pretty off to me. He's probably pretty tall, but I wouldn't think he'd be THAT tall.

Oddish 02-14-2005 02:01 PM

Why the colourful Munch's Oddysee manual booklet of course. Page 7
And also In the Art book on page 224 has hights.

odd chick 02-14-2005 02:02 PM

Oh, yeah. It's sort of like that pic that I posted up for Angel Fox, right?

Oddish 02-14-2005 02:04 PM

Yeah, it is.

odd chick 02-14-2005 02:07 PM

I knew I saw that pic somewhere with the industrials and I have been trying to find it! But I couldn't find it. :( But at least I remember where I saw it now! Thanks, Oddish! :)

Oddish 02-14-2005 02:16 PM

No problem

*notices he's posting very short posts*

Thanks oddish ^-^

Oddish 02-14-2005 02:38 PM

Your right, they are very tall, even compared to Abe. I don't why it sounds wrong to me. :fuzconf:

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-14-2005 03:05 PM

Why is the height wrong?

typhonblue 02-14-2005 03:06 PM



Judging from this picture... if the average mud is 6', then the average Vykker is ~8'. That would make Stranger over 8'.

odd chick 02-14-2005 03:13 PM

Inconsistancy....Just kidding! :p but really, how are we supposed to know how tall they really are because in that last pic the Big Bro Slig is much taller than all of the other characters when that pic from the manual shows that Big Bros are shorter than the Glukkons, Interns and Vykkers.

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-14-2005 03:19 PM

Oh dear will I ever get this right?

Abes Fellow Friend 02-14-2005 08:00 PM

Well,it all matters one what game size you put it on,like if you play Munch's Oddysee,you can tell the Glukkons are taller than the Big Bro Sligs,well in my opinion I think that.

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-15-2005 03:06 AM

It's important that I get the heights just about right for my odd fic... coz the last thing I would want is people saying "no that's wrong"

Phat_man 02-15-2005 03:50 PM

The way the cameras are in the game make it hard to tell heights it makes everyone look like they would be so tiny.

but we never do see how tall stranger is after cough some thing happens because after that he loses some height.

Angel-FoX-crescent 02-16-2005 01:54 AM

Oh help! (does slig's voice)

Angel-FoX-crescent 03-02-2005 12:18 PM

Okay PLEASE help me get the heights right! *please*
