Munch Page Updated on Oddworld.com

I don't know how long this has been updated, as I don't go to the Official Universe section all the time... but I was wandering around there tonight and found that the Munch page under Native Characters has been updated with some cool new info, images and production art!!!

Check it out... looks like it has been update before the rest of the updates we have been waiting for!!!

Has anyone heard of a Gabbiwog??? It's listed under a production art of what looks to be Gabbit Tadpoles! Maybe that is what Gabbit Tadpoles are really called.

Only one section has changed... you have to go to Oddworld Universe -> Native -> Characters -> Gabbits -> Munch.

Here is a new image just because I felt like posting it! And it's such a cute image!!! This one is in MO, but it's not very clear (in the background).



Ok... here's the direct link then!

Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*I believe that the term "Gabbiwogs" refers to Gabbit tadpoles because baby frogs, or tadpoles, are commonly referred to as Poliwogs.

*sorry for the really big signature-it was much longer than i expected it to be, but i changed it now.*

I'm not sure about this, but in a part of the Gabbit updates, they have pictures from the good and bad endings of MO...I know we all know what's generally going to happen in these endings, but does anyone see them as kind of putting a dampener on beating the game, or is it just a "spoiler that isn't really revealing much?"

Am I the only one who finds the term 'gabbiwog' frighteningly close to the word 'gollywog', an offensive but innocent name for African Americans 50+ years ago? Although, having said that, those lil' tads look ever-so adorable.

I don't know if this is new but under big bro sligs they said they were soldier class. that would explain the fact that they are so large and bones match instead of them being on steroids which would just make it so that they have big muscles(I think, I'm not exactly an expert on steroids).

I vaguely, vaguely remember someone saying something like that aaaaaages ago (I think around the time I joined the old EZboard forums)... I'm not sure what exactly was said, though, so...

I think it works better than the whole simply-steroids thing (my pharmaceutically minded brain didn't like that much).

Edit: I've never heard of tadpoles called poliwogs either... When I was little they were either called "tadpoles" or "ew-get-it-out-of-my-boot!"s

those Gabbiwags are so cute, I like the eyes on them, they look so harmless and frogish too. I always thought that Munch or um Gabbits were mixed with a frog and a lizard. I have that picture of the Gabbiwag changing into a Gabbit. undefined
