If so go here and let Matel know why they should re-release the M.U.S.C.L.E.

God Zo your right.  

Anyone remember Big Jim with Kung Fu grip. Or the Evil Knevel (spelled wrong I imagine) action figure (they were called dolls WAY back then   ). Or the Jim West doll! The old standard green army men of course (I had some with M1 grands and M14's none of this M16 stuff   ). Or the original full size G.I. Joe. I had every gun for that guy for a .45 to an M14. Every dang uniform. Remember they made every kind of gadget for him you could imagine. Now that's a toy that would still hold it's own today.

LOL!  I used to love those things!  I had a whole bunch of em.  I couldn't ever figure out why they made a boy's toy pink though.

I liked the GI-Joe before he came out with Kung-fu grip or life like hair.

There was always something gay about him with that rug for hair and always in the jack off position.

For those true Baby Boomers out there, how many remember The Great Garloo (a truly hideous battery powered green troll that I thought I could use to pick up my room but it scared me too much to even look at it while I was trying to go to sleep).

Wish I had a picture of it, but it would probably still scare me.

LOL! I always thought the hair was cool but I hated the Kung Fu grip.
