One of the biggest toy fads of the 80's were these tiny, super collectible "M.U.S.C.L.E." alien wrestlers. Only a couple inches tall and strangely pink colored, they featured a host of over 230 truly imaginative and weird looking characters that could wrestle each other in a special wrestling ring. The toy series also expanded into rare blue, purple and other colored figure sets, and a collector's belt. The commercials for these action figures always mimicked the 1950's, and were in black and white - except for the eye appealing pink that were the figures' trademark color.
The M.U.S.C.L.E. figures were originally released in four famously named box sets of 28 figures each: the "Cosmic Crunchers," "Thug Busters," "Mighty Maulers," and "Cosmic Showdown."
