First one from Forca Fera. The Brazilian sub set of mostly repaints packed with cheapy animal companions. Tigor was the only one who had some parts swaps, and being more original, wasn't just a US figure with slightly different paint.

Tigor

Guerrillas in the Jungle Expert

Tigor and known as "Tiger-Man" for-perfection with which the bed mimics the roar of this animal. Even say that he "talks" to his loyal friend Bangla - a fierce Bengal tiger, who obeys his commands. In the middle of the jungle, camouflaged tiger and with the help of Bangla, Tigor and even invincible. Especially when you make your rifle roared, scaring all the Cobras.

A young zoologist decided to fight the fur hunters in Africa and India. Thus emerged Tigor. In India he faced the nasty Cobra Urzor and released Bangla - the tiger. He won the mortal enemy and a loyal friend of adventures.





So he's known as Tigor, and nicknamed the Tiger Man. Not sure how wearing bright orange head to toe with some green bits helps you blend in while in the jungle, but I guess he's just that good. Kind of a Batman by way of Joan Embry thing going on with his backstory. So basically the Secret Six reimagining of Catman I guess.

Might as well throw in Urzor since he's mentioned in the filecard. I do like that they set up some rivalries beyond just good team vs. bad team. I can't recall much (or any) of that with US filecards.

Urzor not the case with anyone. So the company bears Ursus, his bear. Yet because it helps in hunting and ambushes, with stops devastating annihilate everything with a single blow. Armed only with a rifle, Urzor makes misery. Hunting animals in extinction to sell their skins and use the bayonet in infallible and deadly traps, which guarantee its survival as much as the defeat of their enemies!

Animals Urzor never sniff because he knows the tricks to impersonate one. Sleeps hugged the bear and also, keep warm, stay with your smell. So eat what they catch in their traps. Bath, then, no way. So if it rains. And soap, ever!






Urzor, aka mustache Repeater, is your basic poacher archetype with some Dreadnok bits thrown in. He never showers, smells like an animal, lives in the woods. But hey, pet bear! He didn't spend much time coming up with a name for it though. "Hey, this is my dog, Canine!" Still, when you have a pet bear and smell like ass I doubt anyone will be giving you crap over your bear's stupid name.

This is awesome stuff as I am totally fascinated by the International Figures. I have a wish list of the figures I want to someday get, but at the prices they command its unlikely I ever will.
I recently started making customs of International figures, so far I have Letal, and Biomassa finished, with Urzor on the way!

Thanks for the translation on these!

I'm enjoying these and I find them useful. Translated filecards really help lend character and direction to international customs. You inspired me to re-do my Pantano custom after telling me about his filecard. Thanks for the effort!

Thx for sharing this gems. I would like to have the 4 of them.

It's not Tiger-man. It is like Superman, he is not Steel-man but the 'Man of steel'.

I see tiger man and think Puma-Man, go ahead youtube it!

I love these guys too, I wasn't aware of the rivalry between the two (New Story arch!) I actually use the GI Joe trooper with a desert footloose vest and a schleicht bear as a modern Urzor and Ursus, they protect Cobra Bases akin to croc master.

For you MST3k Fans - Puma Man ( when I was 14 this WAS my sense of humor)

These foreign filecards have all been great, but these two are easily the best so far. I love the Tigor figure, but I had never seen his filecard. Awesome. And Urzor...I never knew he was a villain. Had I read that filecard, I wouldn't have had that problem: you don't hear too many heroes get a description like "Urzor makes misery." His poor hygiene seems to be the most important aspect of his life.

Keep 'em coming!

Crap; now I really want to track down a Tigor.
