Polos (sometimes referred to as “Incredimen” and People) are primary aspects of Incredibox. In each version, seven of them, shirtless, appear onscreen, and the player drags the icons onto each of them to play sounds and make a composition.
Appearance[]
Alpha and beyond[]
Polos are white-skinned men with black hair reaching to their cheeks, uneven eyebrows, a long thin nose, and big lips. Idle Polos are shirtless; however, Incredibox For Schools gives them white tank tops.
The Original[]
In The Original, the design bears the same concept, except drastically different; they have an earring on their left ear, shorter hair, and slightly larger lips with a shine on the lower lip. In this version, unlike the versions to follow, idle Polos bear white t-shirts.
Trivia[]
- The Polos are based upon (and unofficially named after) Incredible Polo, who made almost all of the sounds for them.
- Polos were never called by this name officially; instead, So Far So Good called them by many other names, such as "avatars"[1] and "beatboxers"[2].
- However, they do approve of the fan name due to the previously mentioned trivia.[3]
- In Bite-Size Beats, the M&M's mascots are used instead of Polos.
- Although almost all Polos share the same basic appearance, a few are non-human, such as Tuctom and D. Invaders.
- Regularly, There are 5 sounds per category and 4 categories, which means each version usually have 20 sounds.
