Mar 11 2009Go-Go Gadget Ugly: Dr. Claw's Real Face
This is a picture of Dr. Claw's face from Inspector Gadget. For those of you who wanted to keep it a mystery, I'm sorry, but I was too lazy to edit a picture with a censor bar. Oh, and the Easter Bunny isn't real either -- it's just some sex offender in a rabbit costume. Geekologie: shooting straight from the hip since April, 2006.

The Face of Dr. Claw... Revealed! [progressiveboink]
Thanks to Matt, who you shouldn't mess with unless you want your face go-go-gadgety punched.

Why? And where would such a thing come from? He really just looks deranged. As a child I pictured him much more manacle, and partially decomposed

this thing looks like my head - master...

I don't get it...
4. paineel - March 11, 2009 10:02 AM
you know why his face is like that??
I'll give you a hint that hamster with the electro jacket is up his Anus.
The cat is happy because he will get a warm meal.
eat that gummi bear

I saw his face at the end of the super nintendo game, I think.
6. naas - March 11, 2009 10:10 AM
@1 ditto. All those years of imagining him so gruesome and evil, and then someone does this. While this is only 1/6 as bad as the gay he-man drawings, it looks more like the Christopher Lloyd blue-balls action figure.

Yeah! And the reason your parents got divorced...yep, it was you.

duh duh duh duh duh Inspector Gadget
duh duh duh duh duh wooo hooo
9. Truk - March 11, 2009 10:41 AM
considering this appears to be a new toy, does it really count? because that is obviously a deceptive head probably modeled by dr claw himself to draw attention away from the real him... the scratchy-voiced guy from the last alien movie.

I kind of thought he'd be more terminator-ish. Instead he kind of looks retarded.
11. BOOSH! - March 11, 2009 10:43 AM
Well there goes my erection...
12. Liquidkarma - March 11, 2009 10:44 AM
Ok...so he looks like an older man with a lazy eye. I was picturing more of a vader/voorhees kind of thing...

1992 CALLED THEY WANT THE ACTION FIGURE REPORT BACK
14. dubba - March 11, 2009 10:47 AM
this toy was made in the 90s and it does match the video game... kinda... you are about 16 years late on this one GW
15. Daisy - March 11, 2009 11:06 AM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake becuse the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never BAck DOwn where Max moves to a new school and makes friends with a kid who drives a cool green mustang fastback.
16. Angel Mass - March 11, 2009 11:06 AM
Actually looks better than I imagine
17. hmmmm - March 11, 2009 11:18 AM
his mouth.. wtf
18. Elwood Moose - March 11, 2009 11:23 AM
I can believe you guys fell for the oldest trick in the book.
They WANT you to think he looks like that. And you knuckleheads FELL for it.
Well good luck. I'm going out to randomly stab people with a knife to discover teh REAL Dr. Claw.

I hate the "FAKE!!! This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake becuse the shadow's are all wrong." post! I have seen this on every god damn page!
GET A JOB
20. Freddy K - March 11, 2009 12:09 PM
Heh... Daisy strikes again.
21. Ocelot - March 11, 2009 12:34 PM
I can't believe this! His silhouette made him look like Ganondorf in the Dark World from the end of the SNES Zelda. You know, the Moblin version? This is crap! Claw just looks like a creepy bag man that wanders around the parking lot at Safeway asking for change for the bus. Fail. Just..... Fail.
22. Watch - March 11, 2009 12:53 PM
I alwaysd pictured Claw looking like this, a bitter meglomaniacal old man with spiked hair. Why didnt they show his face at the end of the series?
23. EMSINEL - March 11, 2009 1:22 PM
Ha this looks like Andy Sandburg's face when he..... jizzed in his pants :P
24. Anna - March 11, 2009 1:25 PM
Wow, a lot less terrifying that I imagined. What a let down.
25. TetterkeT - March 11, 2009 2:05 PM
Dr. Claw appears to be the victim of a stroke.
26. Mole - March 11, 2009 2:06 PM
@ Daisy
Totally correct. The cartoons showed him with a bit of a belly from his side profile. This action figure is a fake.
27. I hate fakers (support believing) - March 11, 2009 2:46 PM
@Mole:
Daisy posts that on every single chart that has the option to write it on....
28. Maize5 - March 11, 2009 3:38 PM
This is sad... This figure is several years old. Where have you been, GW? Geekologie, giving you yesterday's news... eventually?
29. Erin - March 11, 2009 4:24 PM
Wasn't Dr. Claw fat? I remember him being a heavy man
30. Tom - March 11, 2009 5:33 PM
No. Stop that. You should not be showing this. This picture has ruined my childhood and I have ever since been trying to forget. I do not care that this is the same face in the Inspector Gaget game as well, this is NOT Canon! Dr. Claw has no face and if he does have one I will not accept this! GET IT AWAY!!!
31. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - March 11, 2009 5:43 PM
Wow, what decade is this? Random-much?
32. MasterBates - March 11, 2009 5:53 PM
This is actually a real FAKE, Dr. Claw's face was revealed once and he looked exactly like Inspector Gadget.
33. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - March 11, 2009 7:07 PM
I always envisioned him in some sort of mask or shroud anyway, I guess the stroke affected his vocal cords too.
34. Nava - March 11, 2009 8:17 PM
I had this theory as a child that the Claw and Shredder were actually the same person...but Shredder was Asian...
35. Kurt - March 11, 2009 8:17 PM
Now did the writers/creators of the cartoon decide/agree on this, or did the action figure designers do this on their own? Would they need permission? Who deciding this makes it real? I need to go meditate on this.
36. Pinkie - March 11, 2009 8:39 PM
I seem to remember about 12 or so years ago, seeing a Dr. Claw action figure in the toy aisle... it had his face covered up so you wouldn't see it until you opened the package. It was all "See Dr. Claw's REAL FACE! Whoo hoo!" on the box.
Is this a picture of that old action figure?

To Daisy and all lames who think it's fake or photoshop edit, you are all wrong, it is all true.
You may guess how I know it, hehe I have that figure action too xD bought it when I was a kid because I wanted to knew Dr. Claw's f^^^^ real face haha so I can guarantee you all people that figure it is not fake or photoshop edit as long as I owe one too haha sadly I couldnt find any of Gadget himself :/ they were out of stock :(
39. Jimboner - March 12, 2009 7:40 AM
WOW. I had this toy like 15 years ago. Possibly the oldest repost EVER... how embarrassing.
