I 'm sure more than a few of you all remember M.U.S.C.L.E.'s. The little flesh colored wrestlers that sometimes came in a clear trash can, made by Mattel during the 80's. Another Japanese import, it has a pretty wide fan base. Kinnikumon, as they are called in Japan-have a wide variety of characters. Over 200 (of the 1000's of characters) were released in the U.S. during the 80's. Long story short, I would love to see a completely original Mezco style take on an ongoing line of some insanely cool little characters. Of course, Mezco's versions would probably be painted, poseable, and more liken to Mez-Itz. (That is a good thing.) Can you imagine an ongoing line of weird alien warrior wrestler creature types that would include about 100-200 completely unique characters? I think Mez could make alot of people very happy with a uniquely "Mezco" line that lasts longer than a series or two, and comes out with some regularity. Something with the staying power of the LDDs. Plus, it would be a completely in-house license, so anything goes in terms of character design. I dunno, its just one of a million ideas (dreams)-we toy loving collector types come up with from time to time. http://board.mezco.net/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Sounds like a good enough idea, but how many people's minds would you have to jog?

There might already be a toy company that has the "exclusive" license to those. I think that they should have left them pink.

Look at those beauties !!! Nice little collection. What I was speaking of was a new completely original Mezco style line, that would have all the unique "coolness" and character variety of the original M.U.S.C.L.E.'s line. Not just some rehash, or "bite" of the old line. I agree, the "fleshies" rule.
