History[]
Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall[]
Fusion Invasion[]
The Future[]
Larry fully reactivated in the Time Lab, from Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall.
In the Future, Larry makes a physical appearance as a disembodied head which is needed to complete the Time Machine.
The player is eventually tasked by Mandark to search for it. When confronting Buttercup, she reveals that he was destroyed sometime during the battle at Tech Square. She then directs the player to Numbuh 5 who says that he was blown up and that all of his remaining parts were given to Eddy. When talked to, Eddy admits that he tossed his parts into Goat's Junk Yard, thinking they were worthless, and tells the player to speak with Samurai Jack if he wants to find them. With Jack's help, the player eventually finds Larry, but his head was the only thing remaining.
Origin[]
Larry 3000, from Time Squad.
Lawrence "Larry" 3000 originates from the 2001 American animated television series Time Squad. In that media, he is one of the main characters. A time-traveling robot from the year 100,000,000 AD, Larry is an officer in the Time Squad, an organization dedicated to preserving history as it originally occurred in order to ensure that the future remains unaltered by the gradual decay of time. Larry himself is sophisticated and well-mannered, but also highly sensitive, emotional, cynical and passive-aggressive with a dramatic, openly effeminate and sarcastic streak.
Larry was originally designed to be a diplomat. However, he was turned into a tool for time travel to be used by the Time Squad after every country combined into a single super-nation, thus making his original purpose obsolete, much to his dismay. Stationed in the same unit as Buck Tuddrussel, Larry's personality would stand in stark contrast to Buck's reckless and brutish way of handling time abnormalities as they routinely traveled back in time in order to correct any errors that would arise during the course of history. Adding to his grief, Larry would handle most of the grunt work onboard their satelite. During a trip to the wrong time period however, Larry and Buck ended up adopting Otto Osworth, who became an unofficial member of their unit and provided them with much-needed historical insight for their missions.
Trivia[]
- Larry's head was inside Foster's Interior. The player can see him after entering the door to Fusion Cheese then jump. It was put there as a teaser for the then upcoming live Time Squad event, which was never finalized.
- In the Time Lab, just before the player leaves for the Past, they can find Larry's head fully reactivated though it does not speak. Although the Future area and the transition to the Past was removed from Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall after the Academy expansion, by unknown ways, any player can "find" remnants of his existence in the Time Lab in the "unknown" areas. Notably, when entering a Fusion Lair, if the player reaches the top of said lair with the help of some Nanos, parts of it can be seen there.
- Larry is the only character from Time Squad to make a physical appearance in Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall.
