Wow! Only just discovering this thread. BlueDog, you just rescued some long forgotten memories for me. Used to love these little dudes.
BlueDog said:Been slowly collecting these M.U.S.C.L.E. figures with my 7yr old as he showed some interest in them. Used to have a few of these as a kid and loved them. Only another 180 odd left to go :shock:
Thanks Raya, yeah I have fond memories of these plus Battlebeasts. Those two were probably the last toys I had any real interest in before I started getting to that age where we leave toys behind as a kid and start focussing on other interests like, girls and cars LOL.
Awesome link Ian, they are very cool. I know there have been some customs done using M.U.S.C.L.E. to do MOTU in the past so it's a great idea for sure. Might have to get me some!

These ones aren't quite for me but at 12" tall I think they'll be a hot seller -

Wow those He-Man muscle men are mental. Love the Action Man and Muscle Men collection as well. :shock:
Love the custom MOTU..Skeletor and Faker are great 8)
Pretty sure I didn't post this up when I got it -
One of my favourite toys as a kid so pretty chuffed to have this on my desk, might even pop it into on of Christian's cases.
Think these are A Team weapons, my figures are long gone and no intention of tracking down replacements so if anyone needs them to complete a figure let me know.

Finally went to the storage attic where my son and I have some of the joint collection stuff. These are figures etc he wanted to collect again from his childhood
Thundercats
Mumra and slithe are resealed
The others are card and figures no bubbles, we are trying to find bubbles/ blisters for these for display, doesn't matter that they are not original as they will never be sold on, just for keeps and display.

Very cool stuff, I had a lot of this stuff including the SNES with streetfighter, battlecat and Ghostbusters stuff. Sold it all off in the early 00's to fund Star Wars collecting. Nice to see it all on here.

Nice collection there and great to see some Subbuteo, I used to love playing it and had the floodlights you've pictured so it's nice to see them again after all these year.
This really is one of my favourite threads that I took the time to go back and check out every page. Really love looking at all types of old toys, there's some great collections on these pages

this is a great thread, very nice collection you and your son have mate, love the motu stuff, that boxed set looks great!
He got the MOTU pack from Tokyo Toys in NY they are quite cool, look good on display.
You can still pick up MOTU but daft prices in the main.
Just trying to sort some way of displaying the Thundercat figures, as they don't have blisters.
