The statue hasn't vanished. I've just had it temporarily relocated to my suite at the Embassy so that I could... polish it Posted by Abin Quank on :

Not a problem Cobie, I'll just use my new power ring to...
Oops... Dammm... Uhhh Cobie, that wasn't supposed to happen...
Honest...
I wouldn't do that to your statue on purpose...
Posted by Semi on :
Should have built the statue out of gold instead of malachite.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Hm, by accidently giving the statue a scar on it's face, could it be that you've made it even more handsome?
You know, I think you may have! Wow, that is a really good looking statue ...

Ya'Know Cobie... I think I can fix that scar...
I've been practicing with my new power ring...

Sharky, looks like it has its own fountain built in
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Hm, I sense that by displacing the handsome statue of Cobalt Kid (which still exists in another reality, The LMBP Spectre told me), you've accidently brought forth a statue of a bidet. Since a bidet is used to clean a part of the body that allows for more enjoyable salad-tossing, I can only assume that Abin Quanck and Poverty Lad are under the control of Salad-Tosser Lord.
Sigh, when the inhabitants of Legion World decided to honor the legendary Cobalt Kid with a statue, I had no idea so many LMBers would fall victim to the insidious attack of Salad-Tosser Lord.
But wow, that was a pretty handsome statue Posted by Abin Quank on :
Ummm... Cobie...
I'm gonna fix your statue... Just as soon as I get a little more practice...
And what does a guy who throws lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers have to do with a Bidet???????
Maybe some radishes and onions too..
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
You know what Abin, don't even worry. No need for you to fix the statue at all. Ever Again.EVER.
I'll just have the LMBP Spectre send it back when she ever shows back up (where has she been lately?).
This bidet statue isn't quite as nice on the eyes as the old one though, that's for sure...

All I can say, Cobie, is that when anyone is preparing for that "special date", he or she should visit your statue. After all, you can never be "too fresh."

All of you stay away from it. The statue of the Bidet is down the street now, it stands adjacent SHAKES and the Starfield lounge!

Well Pov, now this has really become my favorite thread. When we start are road trip for those other cheerleaders, lets visit this one too! The search for a real life Homecoming Queen is on!
I'd like to let you all know that I appreciate your sentiments and am glad you've enjoyed the statue of Cobalt Kid. I know you all look up to me, but you're all great posters in your own right.
BTW, every time a new page hits, the statue goes back to normal so there is no pee, boobies or pimples on it anymore! So no locking the thread, we have to see if it dies on it's own! But if it does die, then thank you all for doing as I asked and not posting !

Yo Cobie,
Look Buddy, the narsassistic statue is one thing, but a self-reparing narsassistic statue is just a bit over the top. So right here and now a little power ring magic will just remove that last function.
Well, whatdya know, it actually worked right for once...
Shirt off... Knockers Up... Pimple on nose... And good old Piddlin Pup doin' a number on Cobie's leg...

Hey, c'mon, guys. All CK did was ask one simple request not to post on this thread. Now you've gone and ruined the statue. I can't believe how inconsiderate some people are. You won't find me doing anything with such blatent disregard for other people's feelings.

Really Cobie, using your position as head of security for personal reasons? Paying employees of the security office to perform non official tasks? Outright Graft and Bribery? In Public??

Gasp! Princess, you're right! Seems to me that while the denizens of Legion World love me, other posters may not find this statue very tasteful! I better start getting ready to reapply for Chief Security Officer?

Not only will it feature the legendary statue in a tastefully-appointed, bird-free atrium, there will be a room devoted to each stage of his life, with plenty of extra rooms for the future (we're thinking of 5-year slices up to age 20, then yearly collections).
Of course, only as leader will I be able to ensure that these plans become reality.
And so is this candidate...
I'm torn between the two right now, but only because they care about the important issues (to me)!
Cramey and Vee, you're both looking like great leaders to me !

Note to Cobalt:
Quit sucking up to the candidates for the Second most important position in the Legion World Administration. I am the only candidate for the Most important position. And in the Immortal Words of El Kabong "and don' you fergit eet" Posted by Vee on :
Abin, buddy. There is no question that you hold the most important elected office on Legion World. Why, we would be in deep doodoo if not for you! And I would also point out that not one single person has chosen to challenge you for re-election because you are so supremely qualified....head and shoulders above everyone else actually. Posted by Vee on :
Oh! Did I fail to mention that in my administration the region surrounding the entrance to Legion world would become the Cobalt Kid Zone. We already have places called the Rimbor zone, and the Braal Zone so it seems like a huge oversight that there hasn't already been a Cobalt Kid Zone. I will right that wrong!
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
The Cobalt Kid Zone...hm, it just fits so well around here. Great thinking Vee, you're starting to look like the top candidate to me! !
Anyone else have any good ideas?

True enough I guess. Oh well, there is something else I can offer...don't forget that I have the power to SHRink and, more importantly, grOW anything to whatever size is desired. Just think about the possibilities!
Posted by Vee on :
Why...I could make the Cobalt Kid statue so massive that it could be seen as far away from LW as Rimbor!
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Well Vee, this idea is appealing to me...and the citizens of Legion World will be delighted, not to mention the poor citizens of Rimbor who will finally have a heroic figure to worship!

Unfortunately, I'm only here for the weekend, and I have plans for tonight and tomorrow.
Besides, I kind of get the feeling that you're exactly the kind of guy that I don't need to be involved with...
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
I completely understand, not a lot of people can handle the life I live .
I notice you are currently enrolled in Mayaville University, I occasionally give lectures there detailing the life of Princess Crujectra...
Posted by Tiffany Spiffany on :
Yes, I know. I'm staying with the Princess at the Embassy while I'm here. She's spoken very highly of you and your services to her.
I'm having a pretty nice time at Mayavale U. though. As you know, it's a nice, small private school. It's a great place for a bored young heiress to figure out exactly what she wants to do with her life.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Mayaville University is a beautiful school, just perfect for someone like you. There's never any rush to figure out what you want to do in life either, so make sure you enjoy life while you can Posted by Varalent on :

Well, Vee bumped it, it's too late to stop!
The crowd of Legion World denizens is already congregated to pay homage! Who can blame them, that is a pretty good looking statue
Arachne, Miner and Stu, what can I say? The citizens of Legion World demand to worship their idols, and I only aim to please Posted by Space Ranger on :
Sentients,
If you will all please move behind the safety barriers. Please! The demolition crew can't start setting the charges until you are all behind the safety barriers.
Truth and Justice shall Prevail! (Never saw a crowd move that fast before! Or roll out the Red Carpet for a Demo Crew.)
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Space Ranger, please, there are plans for a statue of you in the works right now as well, although the probability of a Space Ranger statue depends on the continued sucess of the Cobalt Kid statue, which has brought great revenue to the Legion World orphan's fund charity.
Besides, the denizens of Legion World love their heroes Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
I wonder if the rumors are true that the new section of Legion World currently being called ??????????? is going to be called the honorary forum of Cobalt Kid? I hope not, I think that might be too much...

There's a few cobwebs on the statue, and Abin Quank is down and out with the flu... guess we'll just have to pray for a strong wind to clean it up.
Oh my! Look! There's a little donations box at the base now to help defray the costs of maintaining the statue!

You know, I just realized, Cobie's likeness looks a lot like the Thinker with clothes painted on.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Wow, I forgot how beautiful this statue is! And to think, it stands prominently in town square, one of the first things you see!
You'll probably get your own statue soon enough Grey! The denizens of Legion World couldn't help but give me one first, I'm there favorite celebrity/super-hero. I've tried to be modest about it, but it is a bit flattering!
And to think, no matter what jealous Legion Worlders do to it, the LMBP Spectre said that everytime a new page is added to this thread, the statue goes back to normal! So now it's magically secure !
Aw, thanks guys! What a good looking statue!

Well, given that the biggest is around 10 micrometres in diameter, I'd say where it's from doesn't matter Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
You of course know that by the next page, the statue will be back?
Don't worry boys, I'm not too arrogant to create this statue myself. The denizens of Legion World demanded that their greatest hero be given some type of monument, and I could only go along with it.
Sadly, I now have so many females looking to date me (and males!) that I don't have as much time as I used to!
And...since I promised Gary long ago that I'd post more pics of myself for headlining this thread (which he did ), I must stick to my word and get to it!
So Cru, Gary and everyone, I dropped off my role of film earlier this week !

Now that Cobie is an amoeba (or ameoba ), his statue has been changed to reflect this. That is to say, the statue is now the size of an amoeba -- invisible to the naked eye!
All the better to allow the good people of Legion World an unobstructed view of the towering, larger-than-life statue of their beloved Leader for Life (me)!
Posted by Fat Cramer on :
Fortunately, I just happen to have my Freedom Lover's Portable Electron Microscope and Viewing Screen in my pocket, so I'll set it up here to magnify Cobie's statue for all to admire.
Posted by Cobalt Amoeba on :
Thanks FC!
My statue still stands as a Beacon of Hope for Legion World. Cobalt Kid will always be the favorite hero of Legion world, no matter what you're propaganda says!
Besides, this statue has the magic of the LMBP Spectre behind it! It'll still revert back to normal on the next page, no matter what I look like ! Ha! I may be an amoeba now, but the statue lives on!
Posted by Varalent on :
No need to wait, Cobie. You forget that I wield not only the Staff of Justice but also have mastery over size changes. Just a little concentration and.....

Okay since Vee restored the statue to normal, I guess the first thing I need to do is change it into a giant ameobae.
<Flash of green energy>
Well, that worked fine. Now I need to change it back.

Hmmm... Well, thats almost right, if Cobie really was a kangaroo to start with, but it's not what I wanted...

You misunderstood him Abin, he really got 333 Pieces of pure gold for it!

Cobie, That was 3.33 Pieces of Cold Nickle. I guess Amoeba's don't hear very well...

Are you sure it wasn't the codpiece?
Posted by Arachne on :
Nah, Cobie put that away for safe keeping.
Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
He did, but I stole it again. It wasn't easy, though, I had to look really hard with my magnifying glass to find it.

Posted by Faraway Lad on :
At least without any arms we don’t have to see the statue constantly, “ahem”, readjusting his accoutrements
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
But Far, when it did that, the masses of Legion World would swoon, and security officers would have to make sure that the sexual energy wouldn't result in a Legion World wide orgy!
Posted by Arachne on :
I didn't see any swooning masses. Did the rest of you see any swooning masses?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
They had to be taken to the medical center. When the statue lost it's arms for this page, a rumor about the missing face sent the girls into a frenzy! Next thing you know, a full scale riot broke out! All that because a good looking statue...
You know how it is Arachne! These citizens love their security officers and heroes! Posted by Sanity or Madness? on :
*sticks a Dr Doom mask to the statue with Inertion-based glue. The head of the statue will seperate from it's body before that comes off *
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
How did I know that something like that was coming ? And how did I know it was coming from either SoM or Abin ?
Posted by Abin Quank on :
And just to make Cobie happy, a green energy beam dissolves the rest of the statue, leaving the head, with mask firmly in place sitting upside down on the pedestal.
PS The pedestal is now a formless mass of mystery metal. (Mostly tin with some lead and U-235 mixed in.)

The statue is placed slightly behind the lovely one of me and encased in INERTRON (tm), then painted yellow, and covered in protection spells by the magi of the Sorcerers' World. Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Now that is a fine statue.
I also liked the two of us posing for it and the fun that ensued... Posted by Sanity or Madness? on :

A single bright Green Energy Flash opens a huge pit under the statue and it swiftly falls to the volcanic center of Legion World. Superheated magma surrounds it and quickly cools.
The statue, intact, is available for viewing... all anyone needs to do is swim through the magma surrounding the core of legion world, break through the super-dense material surrounding the statue, defeat the activated protective spells and gaze in wonder as they try to figure out why they went to all that trouble to see that hideous monstrosity.
P.S. did I mention that the combined effect of the defensive spells being activated and the super-heating and cooling of the magma from the core of Legion World have altered the statue subtly? It now looks like a statue of the Royal Inquisitor.
P.P.S. SoM, it might be helpful if a few random Mad-Bombs found their way (Encased in green energy of course, to prevent premature detonation) into the magma pool. That way anyone crazy enough to try visiting/viewing the statue will something to play with on their way to it. Posted by Miss Terious on :

Now it seems that they're going to build yet another statue! Even more, the denizens of Legion World are getting the money from SoM's government budget! How'd they get access to that?
Posted by Sanity or Madness? on :
Abin, Madness bombs are ready if you want to lower them in One thing though - if they manage to break the protection spells to view it, won't it be destroyed?

Simple, they hacked through an "unattended" security office computer.
Fortunately, the only part of the budget they can draw upon through there is the Security office's own allocation

I order my statue to be encased in INERTRON (TM), painted yellow, and charmed by protection spells - only to be sunk deep into the magma stream beside the statue of Cobalt Kid. Oh and I've had the my statue mechanized as well. Now it can do this: and this:

Posted by Fat Cramer on :
Shouldn't that title read "Living Legendary Poster"?
Don't underestimate the importance of statuary! Perhaps this thread should be permanently headlined. Dr. Brian Osbourne of Queens University (obviously a big brain) explains that statues are important as statements of our culture. They serve the didactic purpose of presenting, in simplified form, who we are as a nation.
However, "who we are" can change over time. Space is slow and time is fast, explains Osbourne (what a great line! - FC) - so perhaps stuatues should be first built out of "ice cream and candy floss" - then, if they stand the test of time, cast them in bronze.
This may be why Cobie's statue keeps getting destroyed and rebuilt - it is reflecting the evolving consciousness of Legion World.
(I'm rushing right over to my statue now to rebuild it out of ice cream - rather like that idea...)

The Statue of Cobalt Kid, a.k.a. Cobiemandias
I met a poster from another board Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the MMB. Near them in the thread, Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose pout And puckered lip and sneer of cold command Tell that its poster well those passions read Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things, The hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Cobalt Kid, king of posters, Double Trapper: Look on my post count, ye n00bs, and despair!"

The tourists aren't stopping by Cobie's statue as often as they used to. Legion World NEEDS tourist dollars!
Maybe putting Orlando Bloom's head on the statue would get some of the tourists back.

It wouldn't be the first time the lovely and talented Mr. Bloom graced a statue. Posted by Ram Boy on :
I just thought I should clarify something; I didn't mean Orlando Bloom's ACTUAL head.
Posted by Ram Boy on :
Rocky, is the ice sculpture of Orlando Bloom still around, or has it turned into an Orlando Bloom slushee?
Because if it's still around, we can use THAT to draw in the tourists, and then put Jake Gyllenhaal's head on Cobie's statue.
It's a win-win!
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Good question. It was on Earth-4, which the Evil Emperor Pyngwyn has since turned into an ice world, but that was much later. Of course, I can always make another ice sculpture. Perhaps of Mssrs. Bloom, Gyllenhaal and Cobalt together?
Posted by Ram Boy on :
Rocky, you're truly inspired! So, essentially a statue of Cobie, Jake and Orlando would be like this -
- but a little bit different. The tourists would be throwing money at us hand over fist!
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Yes. That's about the right pose. I don't think they should be wearing their hair up, though. Not too long, either, or it may cover things that oughtn't to be covered. Now who gets to be the one in the middle?

Rereading this thread was fun!
Random Statue of Cobalt Kid fact: in early 2004 to play a joke on me, moderator Stu moved the thread to the Science Police Forum; Gary moved it back. But when he did so, he created a duplicate copy of the statue thread by accident. So of the original thread "The Statue of the Legendary Poster known as Cobalt Kid" actually has become two threads! And then both kind of went on their own with their own set of posts over the last 7 years, though this one has remained the main thread. So Stu's joke created another Statue of Cobalt Kid!
Of course, longtime Legion Worlders remember that in addition to this thread there was the Second Great Statute of the Legendary Poster known as Cobalt Kid created by Pagan Lass during one of the most fun eras of LMB in-character shenanigans ever, as well as Third Great Statue of Cobalt Kid which was hilariously locked by Lash during the 'win a chance to have a thread headlined week' in Fall 2004.
During this period of immense statue building (before the controversy), Founder's Park was created which contains a 4th Cobalt Kid Statue (you can note the slight outrage at this in the opening posts).
There is an additional statue hidden from public view at the Psyonian Embassy for Cobalt Kid's role in the helping Psyonia in the Ggrrgg/Psyonia War, but you'll have to ask Crujeckie about that. This would be the fifth or sixth depending on where you place the duplicate statue created by the thread convergence mentioned earlier.
Yes, Legion World sure does love its greatest and most legendary hero! This doesn't even go into the statues of bidets and Michael Jackson Pov put up all over Legion World to distract the masses. Posted by Cobalt Kid on :

I think Cobie's ego hasn't been massaged nearly enough lately, so we need to erect yet another statue in his honor. Since it's wintertime, I'll be glad to make another ice sculpture. Would twenty meters tall be big enough?
Posted by He Who LSHes on :
quote:Originally posted by Rockhopper Lad: Would twenty meters tall be big enough?
For which part of him?
I was thinking of his enormous biceps. Get your mind out of the gutter! Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Gosh, if I make his biceps alone twenty meters tall (that's their height, not circumference), then the whole statue would be somewhere around 150--that's about 500 feet. We would probably need to install a beacon at the top.
Posted by He Who LSHes on :
A shining beacon of heat and light. That's our Cobie (or is it me?).
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
You're both pretty hot!
It would have to be a cool light, though. Putting a hot beacon on top of an ice sculpture would be a bit unwise, I should think.

I salute your good sense, Rocky!
Smart posters know that massaging my ego usually equals a quick erection of my statue!
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
Well, thank you, Cobie. I think I'll go with my original plan of a twenty-meter sculpture. We don't want it to be a danger to the migration of space-geese.
<Rocky concentrates and gesticulates a moment and a 20-meter ice sculpture of Cobie appears>
Now, I think, in fairness to all the other contributions made by the other LMBers, it would be swell if you'd let me make another sculpture of another LMBer nearby (but not so close as to detract from yours). I think a Lash sculpture would be the best choice. Suggestions?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
I suggest a sculpture of Lash and myself waving to the masses, and several gushing fans going into hysterics! Why, it would be as realistic as possible!

A brilliant suggestion. I'll leave this sculpture right here and--walk with me, please. Thank you. All right. Here we go!
<Again Rocky concentrates and does a little more gesticulation. Soon there is an ice sculpture of Cobie and Lash waving to a crowd of their hysterical fans.> I think that will work nicely. Now, if nobody minds, I think I need to take a little lie-down.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Certainly! That's quite a bit of work you've put in--and all for the good of Legion World!
In addition to lying down, may I suggest the consumption of alcoholic beverages while in the presence of belly-dancers? It's typically how I relax.

I don't like this, Lash. I know I hurt Lardy when I left him, but I had no choice. There's something different about him. Not evil in the way we became evil. This is different. And scary!
Posted by MLLASH on :
You know, Rocks... Lardy's been evil before. Not cute evil like we were, but UGLY evil... real, real evil!!!
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
When Lardy and I were together, I would see glimpses of what he could be. Just little things he'd say or do. Not often, but every now and then. I always told myself I'd never allow that to happen to him. Then, well, when we weren't together any more, I figured it was nothing to worry about because he had no powers, but now! I just don't know.
Posted by MLLASH on :
I hear he's mass-producing Lard Lad robots. Why? And why not mass-produce Lash Lad and Cobalt Kid robots instead? That makes a lot more sense!!
Posted by Rockhopper Lad on :
They'd certainly be more decorative! Wait a minute! Lard Lad robots? Oh, Dywh, not again! It's taken Time-Teller Lad so long to get over that Clive business. Oh, Lard Lad robots spell "trouble"!

Silent voice of the black diamond: ARE YOU PREPARED, MY SERVANT?
Exnihilo: Indeed. This shall be my masterwork of EEEEVIL! The destruction of this symbol of the LMB's heroism shall stand as a harbinger of their impending doom!
Silent voice of the black diamond: FINALLY! AFTER YOUR MISERABLE ATTEMPTS AT EVIL AT CAFE CRAMER AND SHAKES BAR, I HAD FEARED THAT I HAD CHOSEN POORLY... THAT YOU DID NOT POSSESS THE CAPACITY TO WREAK TRUE EVIL UPON THIS WORLD.
Exnihilo: Fear not... with each passing moment, the EEEEVIL grows inside me.
Silent voice of the black diamond: YES! SO HOW SHALL YOU ACCOMPLISH THIS FEAT? A MAGNIFICENT BOMB PLANTED INSIDE? A HEAT RAY TO MELT IT? AN ENORMOUS BEAST SUMMONED FROM THE PITS TO TEAR THE STATUE ASUNDER?
Exnihilo: None of those. I have a far more insidious plan, something I like to call... "The Myron Marks Gambit"!
Silent voice of the black diamond: THE... MYRO...?
Exnihilo <pulling out his brown bag and holding it up dramatically>: YES! Myron Marks... the man famed for his care for the wretched denizens of urban parks... the winged rats known as... pigeons!!!
Silent voice of the black diamond: I DON"T... I'M SORRY... WHAT?
Exnihilo <reaching into the bag, and pulling out a handful of birdseed, he tosses it at the statue>: The methods of destruction you describe are too pedestrian. With this gesture, this symbol will degrade over time... each passing day another step toward the complete degradation of the LMB!
Silent voice of the black diamond: I LITERALLY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
Exnihilo <continuing to toss birdseed>: Can you not see the genius at work here, black diamond? Soon... flocks of pigeons will arrive to consume this seed. The very skies will turn black with their numbers. Within mere hours the natural consequence of their consumption will be... their waste! Thousands of birds will begin to befoul this monument to heroism and... over time... the corrosives therein will wear away at the statue... just as the morale of the LMB will be worn away at our reign of terror!
Silent voice of the black diamond: SIGH...YOU KNOW, I FEAR THAT "EVIL" MAY NOT BE YOUR CALLING.
Exnihilo <laughing as he continues to toss birdseed>: Mwah haHA! Mwah haHA! EEEEEEVIL!!!
Silent voice of the black diamond: YOU DO REALIZE IT'S NOVEMBER, DON'T YOU? THE BIRDS HAVE ALREADY FLOWN SOUTHWARD FOR THE SEASON.
