Foetus in Jar...?
Hm. I dunno how to post the relevant picture, but on Syd's site, you know those little what-look-like-foetuses in the jars?
We-ell... the one next to "Fan Corner" - baby slig? :D And what the frack are all the rest?? Ngh, I'm getting eye-strain trying to see properly... |
Here's the pic: http://www.oddworldian.net/side.jpg
The one she says is a baby slig is the bottom right one. |
There definately looks to be a couple of Gabbits in there... they are likely being preserved for various reasons. The most intriging creature in my opinion is the one in the center top.
Abe Babe... |
the top right one looks like a scrab, and the center bottom one looks something like a paramite. the center top one? haven't a clue, it reminds me of something but its not coming to me at the moment...
|
i am shure that the center bottem is a gabbit
|
they all look like mutated gabbits, they might be trying to enhance a gabbit because of the lack of gabbiar, lungs. etc.
|
I agree with Oddbodd, they look like failed genetic experiments as they seem to have elements from quite a few creatures in them. Some of them even look like Shrykull. I have a clearer version of the pic, it's one of my favorites:

I always thought that most of them were genetically altered gabbits. I was looking for the scrab like you said...if you look at it one way, it looks like a scrab, if you look at it another way it looks like a gabbit.
|
i love that picture it used to be my personal photo. some of the specimens do look like gabbits mabye they are underwater relatives of the gabbits.
|
gabbits ARE underwater gabbits.

Foetus????I assume you mean fetus....or am I just ignorant and there is a oddworld creature called foetus???
I don't know what they are...I don't see a gabbit at all...they kinda look like vykkers to me.Or there just some ccreature we haven't heard of... |
"Foetus" is the English way of spelling fetus. And I'm a Brit. *blows raspberry* so nyehh. (j/k, *runs away*)
|
BLOWS RASBERRY?my god you can be annoying...
|
*Smacks Melvin with a red hot poker* "Behave yerself."
Haven't you guys ever seen films where they show the inside of some sadistic laboratory? This image is just like it's been taken out of one of those movies. There are jars and big capsules preserving deformed hybrids of various animals. The Island of Dr. Moreau springs to mind, as does the latest Aliens movie with Sigourney Weaver. |
Why'd you smack me?I'm behaving myself...smack teal...she blew me a rasberry...she spit at me...I never did anything to her...every one seems to be on everyone elses side...OOHHHHHH YOU ALL HATE ME!!!!
|
Remain calm Melvin, everything's gonna be fine. I only said something to you because you seemed genuinely annoyed with Teal in your response, whereas it was clear Teal was just being playful.
All is calm. All is well. Repeat. |
I wasn't really annoyed...I was just kidding...AAAAAAAAAA!!!!!WHY???OH WHY DO YOU HATE ME SO????IT BURNS!
*falls to the floor writhing and twitching* |
Aw... *pets twitching paramite* Crossed wires all round, methinks... :P :D
I'm still trying to figure out what the upside down preying mantis with a bird's head is... (Middle, left, second row down, and there's another one right down the bottom) [ May 04, 2001: Message edited by: Teal ] |

|
DONT WORY MELVIN, TO MAKE IT BETTER ILL TELL YOU THE TRUTH
WE ALL HATE YOU ;) do you feel better now? :) Maybe when they wrote foetus it meant babies of foes? |
