Obvs a polyOSC makes me moist, BUT it looks like a very cut down version of an OSCar. First impression is it needs way more knobbage to be a decent emu. Yes a poly version is a great idea but not if it loses so much hands on control. Sequencer could be a great idea on an OSCar but menu diving on a screen...no. Just no. It would likely be a decent emu - Behringers usually are IMO. The screen is likely to make the additive part easier, but I could always leave the OSCar's additive side- rarely used it tbh - still don't on impOSCar. Wavetables can f**k off too. If it was cheap enough I'd get it for nostalgia, but as it stands that doesn't do it for me.
I'm almost decided on getting a PWM Mantis as a modern OSCar replacement. More expensive but it has all the OSCar uniqueness, the dual filters, a lovely drive, true Chris Hugget DNA and a shitload more goodies that give greater value than more polyphony imo. Every tidbit I've seen/heard of Mantis screams the spirit of OSCar to me. I am ready to be parted with my poorly-earned money.

That Boscar should make me very moist but for various reasons it's dried me up. Black'n'green is the new black'n'yellow
