![]() It might not be a blaster weapon named after Gaster who invented it, it could be some form or piece or entity owned by Gaster that Sans obtained. It’s not a weapon, it’s an actual monster. This means at one point, the Gaster blaster was an NPC, a thing with more facial expressions and likely planned dialogue. For those that don’t know how the game works, lots of characters have black face templates and the graphics of the eyes and other features are added on top separately and animated separately, like Muffet’s eyes. Still, I wish I knew what reference Toby used for the graphic, most likely it was a dog skull of wolf skull and he just depicted it in a style that happened to look like an actual skull of another species.Īnother thing worth pointing out, a lot of people draw the Gaster Blasters like a weapon, or a mask for sans, but it’s important to note the larger Gaster blaster image without eyes or nasal canal is called “spr_g-b_npc.png, an unused filed. That uh… That makes this a bit more pointless. The thin parts of the jaw, shortness of snout, blunt rounded jaw muscle anchors, and width to length ratio mean it is likely not a grey wolf, the African hunting dog has a skull that fits the most criteria.Ĭonsidering the Gaster Blasters are shown as being longer than Sans body, and with their width, I would say size is not to scale or its a matter of perspective, as even the largest canid known, the long extinct Epicyon haydeni had a skull around 34 cm long and had a skull the size of a male lion, still not big enough if you consider Sans over 5 feet tall.Īlso, no canid has a skull that splits in half and jaws that separate in the middle and rotate outwards. This disproves that it was based on a fox skull, or a skull of a Pomeranian like Toby’s dog form. They look like a canid skull, and after a lot of research I found the orbital size, rostrum length, Sagittal crest, fangs, sharp elongated jaw muscle anchors, nasal canal, and teeth, and skull width and length and broad jaw bones, all closely match a large domestic dog, grey wolf, or African hunting Dog, shown in the last two pictures. Thanks to a lot of hard research, I have determined what the Gaster blaster weapons are based on. You can see the full post on it here undertale skulls w.d. With no side or full frontal angle it’s impossible to rule out domestic dogs. ![]() Gaster Blasters most closely resemble canid skull, a mix between an African hunting dog and a large domestic dog and a grey wolf. The other funny thing is that snakes don’t have to open their mouths wide to make loud noises, they hiss with their mouths shut through the hole in their mouths that allow their tongue to flick out and back in to taste the air and “smell”. In snakes instead of the jaw opening outwards when they eat, if you could see the bones and ligaments you would see them bend and stretch apart in the shape of what’s being swallowed, it’s easy to see when they eat eggs. Snakes also don’t have the right dentation or nasal cavity or Sagittal ridge on the top/back of the skull for the Gaster Blaster. They will often appear to yawn after swallowing a large mouse and move their jaws around, but that is stretching, not resetting the joints or “hinging”. The jaw bones don’t swing open or leave the “hinges” and the jaws don’t break, they simply are made of small bones and stretch, the jaws are seperate in the middle and connected with stretching connective ligaments, and their teeth in the lower jaws do not rotate outward or inward. This isn’t quite true, I work with snakes and handle them, and the unhinging and dislocating of jaws is more of a misunderstanding.
