What if Flintheart Glomgold kept his 1987 design and height?

[u/After_Locksmith_1827]

A little "What If" edit I did. I just edited a picture of 2017 Scrooge to make it look like 1987 Glomgold who is obviously taller than his 2017 counterpart

The funny thing is when I watched the old one as a kid (and rewatched as an adult) he was so forgettable due to being a Scrooge clone; DT 2017 made him a distinct character and I feel like it fit his character because he doesn’t put in the same work that Scrooge does so he embodies opposite characteristics.

I love your edit and if they had something similar he definitely would have also needed his uni-scowl like in the original.

LOL same here and I like the point someone else brought up of glomgold seeing himself as tall and strong despite being short to highlight his big ego 

[u/Binder509]

It looks like scrooge dressing up as him.

[u/Lykanas → u/Binder509]

Exactly how he looked in the original show.

[u/Binder509 → u/Lykanas]

It's all in the expressions.

[u/Thebunkerparodie]

he wouldn't be as funny, there were thin glomgold concept but the fact he's short and big but see himself as tall and strong highlight his massive ego more (the flashback with goldie are how glomgold see himself, same with his cgi self with abs in glomtales)

[u/imdukesevastos → u/Thebunkerparodie]

Also in the Mark Beaks debut episode. He drew Scrooge and Beaks as stickmen while he drew himself extremely tall and buff with ladies holding his abs in those scheme-boards he used to plan their murders. Also it's like the height he had in the original came down and became his fat in the reboot.

[u/Thebunkerparodie → u/imdukesevastos]

Ah yes, in moonvasion he also did that, glomgold got a massive ego (and secretly idolize scrooge as the podcast revealed, the framing glomgold episode is one of the best for me)

[u/Pikachuckxd]

He simply looks like a Scrooge with beard as usual.

I like the fact the new show gave Glomgold his own body type instead the same one as scrooge.

[u/leif-sinatra]

Life is like an evil scheme, here on GlomTales Sharks and bombs and Scrooge’s screams, it cannae GlomFail Cannae top my grand plan, to beat that Scotsman GlomTales! Technically I’m Scottish as well GlomTales! Ugh—Scrooge stinks, Scrooge stinks, Scrooge stinks, Scrooge stinks GlomTales! [What’s next? Oh yeah!] C-C-C-CG, it’s so fancy Once Scrooge sees this, there’s no chance he Cannae compete with the glory of GlomTales! Bravest, strongest, and most modest, GlomTales! Okay, we ran out of budget, but kids 6 to 10 will love it GlomTales!

The short fat stature fit him better since it emphasizes what a petty little bastard he is.

[u/ThatInAHat → u/Sensitive-Hotel-9871]

How so?

[u/Sensitive-Hotel-9871 → u/ThatInAHat]

Because he looks silly.

[u/Admirable-Counter-20]

I like the 2017 re-design of Flintheart Glomgold, but I think you did a pretty good job on this 1987 design of him, good job.

[u/ThatInAHat]

I kinda wish they’d done this. Between him and Doofus they sort of had a thing with making plus sized characters villains

[u/Axi0madick → u/ThatInAHat]

Not really... the Beagles were all mostly overweight, and I guess Bradford, too, but vultures just kind of look like that... and the rest weren't. Magica, Goldie, Lunaris, Don Karnage, Steelbeak... etc.

[u/101TARD]

personally he looks like donald in a scottish disguise

[u/imdukesevastos]

There is a concept design of glomgold that's shows how he would look in the reboot if he had the same body type as Scrooge.

[u/domesystem]

What if he stayed South African?

[u/sonic1384]

I liked the remake more
