I thought that the curly, greenhaired men with whiskers were the ugliest on the island - up until now. I got this child with a face that is definitely not 100 % human. He has an elongated face, his skull looks flattened when seen in profile and his eyebrows are not separated. His ears look like they are set too high and he only got a little patch of hair on top of his head that look more like a cap or something. He scared me so much that I cooked a stew....I am not ashamed to admit that LOL

And now I got twins (boys) with the same look AAAAAAWWWWHHHHH!!!

Sorry I can't post a picture of him - my computer refuses to obey the print-screen button.

hah! I call him the ugly potatohead man. My first one was a runner. *sigh* cant make a sacrificial stew for a runner.

You cracked me up by the way! Actually made me laugh out loud. :-)

I was just wondering if two of my village women had had a close encounter of the 6th grade with an alien or two \:D

I have decided to keep the twins for now. I renamed them Beavis and Butthead.

I don't think they are ugly, just beatifically challenged! \:\) And sometimes when you mate the ugly dude with a pretty girl you have a lovely child.

Well, Anaksuel, I admit that when it comes to the guys with whiskers, but these "ugly potatoheads" (to quote Jasmine123) are just too much. They bare no resemblance to their beautiful mother, I can tell you that. Neither do they resemble their official father. So I think my theory of aliens may have some truth in it \:D

I'm sitting here laughing at almost every post, then re-reading them and laughing again! I agree, those kids (and the adult males) are pretty creepy looking. I really, really wish the game designers would put more effort into the looks of the characters for the next game, but at least it gives me a good laugh reading the complaints.

I'm glad I could be of service - a good laugh is always nice. However, I'm not sure I'm complaining. Just amazed that the designers could even think somebody like that into existence. Have they seen a similar being in real life and if so, could they please share that with all of us? \:\)

Melian1965, just read your response to my earlier post and laughed again! I guess "complaints" was not the correct word. Probably should have said "observations." I actually think it could be frightening running into someone who looks like that...alone in a parking garage at night, the being from another planet approaches...

Might be pretty scary!

Uh...Hmmm....I'm not sure I would really WANT to have that shared with us in real life. Just a little too scary huh. \:\)

The big headed babies creep me out too! You know the one I mean - looks like he got a big "bowl" haircut and his head is HUGE compared to the other kids. Unfortunately, the girls REALLY like him even tho' his "heart light" is not turned on. He smooched one girl after she ran across the village and threw herself on him. I snatched her up but - bang! too late. A baby popped into her arms. They didn't even make it CLOSE to the hut, much less inside. I told my dog the villager must have thought ... "hmmm, if his HEAD is THAT big ... I wonder." Really, it is the only explanation. The baby was pretty and they had several more despite my best attempts to monitor them. Some evil programmers out there! LOL!

I named my potato head guy Frank E. Stein and fortunately for him, he appeared too early in the game for stew! Looks just like Beavis/Butthead to me too.

Now I come to think about something - the writing on the wall! It says something about the gong; that it had been given to the people (who were there before my tribe) by others. What these others were are not specified - they are just called "they". Hmmm, maybe my alien theory will be justified in VV3... That would surely explain these spooky kids/men. They are a hint, of course!! \:D

I was nearly sick when I first encountered Mr Potatohead. It's a major reason for selective breeding - though of course rogue genes always pop up.

YESSS!!! That's the guy! And you're right - he is even uglier as a toddler. It's a comfort to know my twins will look less ugly when they grow up. \:D Thanks for the picture, Istara!

I probably shouldn't even confess this on this thread, but that "ugg lee" guy looks adorable to me. He looks like a really Nordic guy wearing a hat. Guess beauty really IS in the eye of the beholder!

Of course you have the right to express your opinion \:\) Good for him that he has at least one fan out there... But I don't agree that he looks like a Nordic person. Please be aware that I am a Nordic person myself, born and living in that region, so I should know. ;\) And his propotions are wrong - that is even more obvious when he's a little child.

Wow! You mean I am the product of a "rogue gene"? And all this time, I thought I was just another human being.

My boyfriend has gone through and changed all the guys hairstyles and the females. The "elderly" heads are not done yet but it will be in the next week.

However, he has finished all the dresses. I'll try and post the Mods as soon as I figure out how too.
If anyone knows how I can post the Mods, let me know.

Oh wow, head and body mods would ROCK!

As for Mr Potatohead - I've never encountered him and never want to!

Besides the hair, has anyone else noticed the weird face colors, in particular the fact that some of them are white (different color from rest of head) and look like clowns? I can understand tribal facepaint or whatever, but I don't understand the clown look. \:D

Yes, the men with grey-green curly hair look like they have whiskers \:\) And I agree with you that the clowns look weird, but at least they have human features. Hope you will never encounter Mr Potatohead! I have 3 of them in my tribe \:\/ To their advantage I must say that they do look a bit better (that is, less spooky) as grown-ups than as kids. The young ones are really scary, though.

My first triplets were coconut heads - my daughter named them Gorilla 1, 2, & 3. My second set of triplets were the female versions of the coconut heads and we named them Thing 1, 2, & 3. I was scared to breed them because I didn't know what I would get. But,I did, and they made some very cute kids together.

I know. Sometimes the ugly persons produce beautiful children and beautiful persons will have ugly children. The grey-haired guy is such a person - he often gets cut kids by mating with beautiful women. I even mated Mr Potatohead with a woman with long burgundy hair and got a girl with red hair in a ponytail. Not bad for him, I thought... \:D

Another strange looking one is the goth kid. He has long black hair that covers up one side of his face. I keep expecting him to swing his head back to get the hair out of his face!! Maybe they are trying to teach us a life lesson "You can't judge a book by it's cover" But, if I get a scary villager that won't work he is out of there!

Hmm, i had this Boyfriend that sort of looked like Potato Head... so I called those ones G.Is. They were really jealous of the Marines.

That said, I have had the male heads changed now so don't get him any more.

I've also changed the female heads and dresses so if anyone wants the file, PM me.
