M.U.S.C.L.E.s on eBay




What are M.U.S.C.L.E.s?


M.U.S.C.L.E.s, also called MUSCLE men or MUSCLE things, are small figures from the 80s with an "intergalactic wrestling" theme (M.U.S.C.L.E. is an acronym for Millions of Unusual Small Creatures Lurking Everywhere). Produced by Mattel, M.U.S.C.L.E. toys were available in the familiar 4-packs, 10-packs and 28-packs, and had a M.U.S.C.L.E. Wrestling Ring accessory, among others. Our M.U.S.C.L.E. toys originate from Japan, where they were based on characters from the cartoon, Kinnikuman.

What the crap happened?! - Aug 29, 2008
You'll notice that the Other News portion of the site is missing! What happened to it? Don't worry, I migrated that content over to a new blog-driven site entitled...


I have a few reasons for doing this. First, I noticed that the non-MUSCLE stuff was taking over the site, especially after my latest redesign. Second, the non-MUSCLE stuff was pretty much a blog anyway, so it makes sense to separate it from this page and go all-out bloggy with it.

The design of The Dork Dimension is a little bit nubs at this point. But, as with this page, I'll be toying with it to tweak it into something sweet. And all the content of the non-MUSCLE portion of this site (like the reviews) will eventually be migrated over there. But if you need to get to the non-MUSCLE portion, I've left it active until everything is migrated over. Just go here.

Hopefully it doesn't seem like I'm throwing this MUSCLE page under the bus. Not a chance... I'm just restoring the 100% MUSCLE-ly goodness of this site, while expanding the non-MUSCLE blog content. Anyway, check out The Dork Dimension! I hope you dig it!
