Mike Haggar - MvC

[Acey]

No secret, I'm working on Haggar. He is based originaly on the Hulk edit sprite sheet by Jellyfish. I have resized everything so that Haggar is the same size as Zangief rather than the Hulk. I also made about a billion more sprites, a bunch of palettes etc... There is still tons to do in cleaning the sprites, specials, hypers, air and crouch punches, etc... but this character is completely planned out and will match the Final Fight version pretty well. He'll have all three throws from FF, probably one where he can walk around carrying the opponent upside down too, a lead pipe bash, spinning Lariot, maybe a knife throw too (sorry, no spinning piledriver here).

[DizzyTheConquer]

Yes!! 

[~Hale "R@CE" Caesar~]

hmmm i wonder what will his specials and super moves will be?.......

[.Batzarro.]

Awesome. I'm using Hulk as a base for Rhino as well, so I know it can be a huge pain to resize them and have them looking right.

[Zerok_116]

YES MY FAVORITE FINAL FIGHT CHARACTER IN MUGEN 

THX ACEY   

[tunglashor]

Looks fantastic!  Great job AC.  Looking forward to seeing him go toe-to-toe with Zangief at long last 

It just ocurred to me seeing the strap over his shoulder, I wonder how hard it would be to have it stay on the correct side when he switches sides?  I know this kind of thing's been done in a few characters... but I guess it'd be a lot of extra spriting work for something so trivial 

[guy-zero32k4]

He looks great.  I'm glad you went with the FF 1 look.  It didn't feel right seeing how he looked in 3.

Are you gonna be using sounds from the original arcade game for his punch sounds and grunts? 

Do you have any pre fight animations planned?

[Tundra]

My dream come true. Finally the  hulk edit is back.

[MuηkyMØÜf]

Nice edit Acey but the chest looks kinda funky in the 1st screen. Is Haggar breathing for his stance or is that a spriting issue.

awesome! Good luck with him

[J.C.McMinis]

Looks great  . Hagar was my favourite FF character as well.

[TGM]

HAGGER WHOOO!!!!!    my favorite character of all time on Saturday slam masters.


good luck dude 

[malisiousjoe]

Acey you make char that everyone wants but nobody makes! Great job so far on Haggar! What moves will he be able to go into while he has his opponent suspended upside down (Suplex, Piledriver, ??, ??)

[O Ilusionista]

Amazin work man!

Will you include his super from Final Fight 3?

About the Spinning Pile Driver...If you want to stick with his bios, he need to have that move. Zangief had stolen his Spinning Lariat, so he had stolen Zang's Spinning Pile driver.

[Acey]

No, I don;t plan on usingthe same sounds from the FF game, but something similar sounding but yet undecided.

Pre fight intro... an idea or two.

I'm doing this with Sentry because letters make a real differance. I don't intend to with the strap though. I put it in the same category as Sagat's magical scar and eye patch.

[Jelux Da Casual]

nice, magical scar and patch, L-O-freaking-L.

Hey, how come no Spining Pile Driver, didn't Zangief learn that move from Haggar?

[Atomic]

Great choice for a character, man!  I will definitely be on the edge of my seat waiting for this one! 

[Alexziq]

Being the old man that I am, I blew many a quarter playing Final Fight back at the college campus as a teenager. Helped keep me from having money to blow on cigarettes! Anyway I'm glad to finally have a good haggar in Fighting Game mode.

BTW

Anyone remember what SF game had Haggar in somebodys ending? Seems like it was the turbo one that 1st had DJ, and Feilong in it.

[Shredder]

I remember Haggar is in the ending of Rolento in SFA2. And now that I mention Rolento I wonder what special intro Haggar will have with him.

Ah, good call!  Cool to hear about Sentry too.

[The Anvil]

looks great acey
i always thought he looked like one of the bosses from streets of rage.... i forget his name  now.

[Error Macro]

Haggar looks awesome, great spritework!

vvv

Zangief had stolen his Spinning Lariat, so he had stolen Zang's Spinning Pile driver.

[DizzyTheConquer]

I can't wait for this release since I got the never finished one.

I don't blame ya. Just takes up more time.

Zangief had stolen his Spinning Lariat, so he had stolen Zang's Spinning Pile driver.

I know Zangief and Haggar have a fued over who invented the Spinning Larriot but I can't find anything about the Spinning Piledriver other than Zangief developed it for the Street Fighter II tournament. Since in Final Fight Haggar only uses a regular pile driver (not a spinning one) that is what I intended on using in this character. Anyone have any other sources about the spinning piledriver they could direct me to?

Officially, Haggar stolen screw pile driver from Zang.
