Wanizame Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 M.U.S.C.L.E. 's Were these goofy/weird Wrestling Figures, that were about an inch and 1/2 tall. Nowadays they have an Anime out titled Ultimate Muscle.. anyways.. I was reallllly having the urge to paint some minis, problem was.. I didnt have any unpainted minis. So I painted a couple Muscles. http://community-1.webtv.net/TheTypoGenerator/muscles/ 'course they're not gonna be too rich in detail, and will prolly resemble more of a toon, esp. the 2nd one.

Qwyksilver Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 My little brother had a metric ton of those things when we were kids. They made great ammo for my slingshot. I could nail him running at about 30 feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeekGirl Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Hee, hee those are fun. I was reallllly having the urge to paint some minis, problem was.. I didnt have any unpainted minis. Now that's a problem I won't have for quite some time...minis tend to languish on my shelf waiting to be painted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friendlyfungus Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I had some of those Muscle things, they were tons of fun to play with outside. Then my sister lost them, but I was old enough not to be too distraught. And congratulations on being one of the few miniatures people who can actually run out of miniatures! Most people have zillions they never touch. I hope the stuff I ordered at my FLGS gets in soon or I'll be looking for weird things to paint too.

Lawgiver Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I used to love these little guys. I had 200+ of the little chunks of rubber. Alas I sold them in a yard sale over a decade ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanizame Posted September 3, 2005 Author Share Posted September 3, 2005 I also had some figures called, Monster in My Pocket, do you recall those? They were based off fictional monsters, like a Gremlin, A Werewolf, a Kraken, a Roc ect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkstar Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I totally lusted after these (in a material lust not sexual lust you pervert sort of way) when I was a kid. I would buy the big tubs of them and seperate them into "factions" that seemed to work together. There was this one guy who looked like a tin can with arms, oh man, I loved these toys. I wonder what happened to my collection, I had hundreds. I think I ended up destroying all my toys when I got my first BB gun for a birthday lol. They're probably all scattered around the backyard of my old house hehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital [email protected] Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I forgot all about muscles. I think I had the wrink and everything. I am embarrassed to say it, but I think I traded dirty magaizes for all of my Muscles stuff. There was a local kid who would trade anything for porn mags. I can't remember how I came to get them, probably passed along out of some unknowing fathers collection and passed from child to child.

Prophet Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Oh the bliss of hurling these things at a little sister. Brings back many memories. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. Prophet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendercrazy Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 Wow. I'm actually sort of relieved I'm not the only one who still has mine. Before I actually began to beef-up my real mini collection... I used my Muscle collection quite frequently for several gaming campaigns. They made for a decent half-giant race that I had in one world. My favorite Muscle is the bumpy alien hand with three fingers and a thumb. The middle finger has a set of eyes and a viscious mouth filled with sharp teeth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
