Sprouting Sims

so last night i found out that theres a premade sims 1 family that is entirely exclusive to a specific german release of livin' large.

theres barely any info about them online, pretty much only a few forum posts talking about how theyre only in ll and not the deluxe release of the game and about how ugly and weird they are.

Their names are (from left to right) Denis Becker Bild, Bobby Sremac Bild and Werner Schmidt Bild.

i am assuming they are given the common last name Bild because they are in the Bild interactive release of the EP. no clue why they all have different "actual" last names. i googled their names to see if they were maybe based on real people but nothing came up. werner schmidt and denis becker are incredibly generic names and while bobby sremac is more unique it also brought up nothing. their heads are pretty poorly done photoskin jobs and again i have no idea who these people are

the sims 1 section of the sims resource is a treasure trove of weird

Fun Fact: You can still buy Jeanettes Sim on her album single. She shipped it with a file of her simself on her "Run With Me" single which she also had a Sims 2 MV with.

Unused thumbnails from The Urbz: Sims in the City, showing Jayde, Skid, and an unused character only known by "punk" in an earlier style. This implies at one point; these characters could be interacted with.

"Punk" can be spotted in an early trailer. He appears to be dressed just like Skid, only with a different color palette. It's also safe to assume that Skid might've been one of the first Urbz created. Not only because of his appearances in early promotional works, and he has an unused thumbnail, but because earlier models use his body/outfit as a base.
