Is this a typo? #003 in Salmon right?

Is this a typo?  #003 in Salmon right? 

Yes! Thanks... I even wrote Magenta into the MCIA html twice earlier tonite and had to go back in and fix it.

A couple years ago, I mistakenly sent Philly a Salmon figure when he was looking for the sculpt in Magenta.

I want the Salmon! Why not me?!

Just kidding...a little Dane Cook for those that know him...

Alright, I spent of few minutes browsing through some MUSCLEDB collections trying to determine which collectors report having the "Uncertain" Orange figures.

There are 5 people. I'm going to list their names, but I'm not doing so to embarrass or berate them. Two other trees/colors that were Uncertain were recently found to just be extremely rare! So, there is a very real possibility that these individuals own very rare figures!

#016 Orange -- Adamantium Wulf & Azrael
#029 Orange -- Azrael
#040 Orange -- Fwgeneral (Edit: Reports that he does have this figure.)
#045 Orange -- Azrael
#083 Orange -- Philly Madison
#089 Orange -- Adamantium Wulf & Azrael
#158 Orange -- Fwgeneral (Edit: Reports that he does have this figure.)
#160 Orange -- Azrael
#162 Orange -- SeekingXar (Edit: Says they sold it awhile ago.)

Flesh images of these sculpts can be seen here: Orange Needs

I have sent emails to each of these people asking if they could provide me with images or otherwise confirm that they have them.

Hey, guys, can you verify whether you've got these or not? Thanks!

[Soupie]

Eleven more updates!

SALMON

033
061
082
064
110
112
167
156

LIGHT BLUE

020
033
157

Thanks yet again, Topher!

There are now 10 or fewer figure images needed for each color:

SALMON - 9

PURPLE - 5

DARK BLUE - 10

LIGHT BLUE - 1

RED - 8

MAGENTA - 6

ORANGE - 0

(Although there are 13 ORANGE uncertain figures. However, no one has been able to produce even one image of any of these, so I'm really skeptical that they exist.)

GREEN - 8

One interesting fact is that many of the remaining, missing figures come from the same trees! For instance, many (most) of the missing MAGENTA figures come from Part Two, Tree One, and many of the missing RED figures come from Part Two, Tree Two, as well as the GREEN in Part Seventeen, Tree One.

However, since the figures in these trees were all produced at the same time in one mold, it would make sense that if one were hard to find in a particular color, they all would be hard to find.

The question is, why these particular parts?

[Soupie]

Two more updates!



The addition of the Magenta #043 completes that figure! Also, it is just 1 of 3 Magenta figures found so far in a tree of 8 figures. It just so happens that there are 5 more Magenta figures yet to be found, and they are the 5 left from that tree (Part One, Tree Two).

The Purple #107 is also extremely rare! It comes from a tree of five figures and is 1 of 3 Purple figures found so far in that tree (Part Fourteen, Tree One).

There is one other #107 color left to found. A Salmon... Hm, I wish someone had a Salmon #107 so I could get a pic of it.

Will do...when it arrives that is.

Purple Sunshine pyramid is rare?

Excrement! I chewed one of those up when I was eight!

(he was able to stand, then, though...)

It's funny........The taste of Muscle plastic never gets old.

I always have at least one rare figure for breakfast each morning.

The Kinnikuman Parts archive is the archive that shows figures predicted to exist.

Figures predicted to exist in X color -- based on the fact that other figures in their tree have been found in X color -- are denoted with a (?) mark.

For instance, since several figures in #043's tree were found in Magenta, I knew #043 must also exist in Magenta (even though I had never seen one).

To see a list of all the figures predicted to exist for each color, do the following:

(1) Go to the main page of the MCIA.

(2) Click on the banner.

(3) Click on "View the Archives."

(4) Scroll down to the "View the Needs Archive" and click on the various colored buttons to view the figures predicted to exist -- but not yet found -- for each color.

[arforbes]

And it looks like I have a handful of figures that I have still not taken pictures of for you. I must have gotten a lot of figures and forgot to send pics a while back. I can count at least 5 or more figures that I have that you do not have pictures of. I will get those to you ASAP!

[Soupie]

Does that include the 5 I have on the way from Canada? How about the Salmon #107?

Also, Arforbes, do you have an opinion about the existance of the many Orange figures needed? Not one figure in Orange has been found for any of their trees -- which is unlike the other "needed" figures.

Do you believe any of those figures actually exist in Orange? I know that according to the MDB, Philly Madison reports having #083 in Orange.

Do you think that is accurate?

Nope, that is 5 additional that I just realized I have by looking at your color buttons section. So you will have over 10 pictures of new figures coming in to add to the MCIA. I must have forgotten that I got some figures and never took pics! When I was looking at your site I was like, I have that one, and that one and that one too, and so on! So more pics to come shortly!

I bet the Ornage figures do exist, but maybe a rarer tree? Who knows...I am not sure as to the accuracy of Philly's list, because I can't get a hold of him. But the tree theory holds solid thus far, possibly just not as many orange trees produced and therefore not many found yet.

They may pop up eventually, if they exist it will just take time.

[Soupie]

Well, there are only 3 trees in question. So, we really only need to find one figure from each tree in orange to "prove" that the other figures in that tree exist in Orange.

All three trees happen to be small, two trees of 4 and one tree of 5.

You can see them here: Orange Needs

The first row is Part Five, Tree Two which consists of 4 figures.

The second row is Part Eight, Tree Four which consists of 4 figures (including the Doc Nako, the announcer).

The third row is Part Thirteen, Tree Two which consists of 5 figures (including the Sunshine Arch.)

Has anyone seen an Orange Doc Nako or an Orange Sunshine Arch?

Like I said, we only need to find one from each tree to prove the others exist!

I have none of those figures, but according to MuscleDB, some have been discovered. Some of the figures are not part of Philly's collection, so they have been found by other members, supposedly. If this is true, then the figures do indeed exist and have yet to be documented with pics.

[Soupie]

Here are the ones reported as found on MDB:

#016 Orange -- Adamantium Wulf & Azrael
#029 Orange -- Azrael
#040 Orange -- Fwgeneral (Reports that he does have this figure, but no picture.)
#045 Orange -- Azrael
#083 Orange -- Philly Madison
#089 Orange -- Adamantium Wulf & Azrael
#158 Orange -- Fwgeneral (Reports that he does have this figure, but no picture.)
#160 Orange -- Azrael
#162 Orange -- SeekingXar (Says they sold it awhile ago.)

Fwgeneral said that he does indeed have them, but has absolutely no way off getting me a picture...



Adamantium Wulf never got back to me, though he is currently active on the board.

Tell him to mail that shizznit to me and I'll take a picture and mail them back to him!

[arforbes]

I found another 9 including the Salmon #107 that I have that I am going to be sending pictures of to you shortly. Then when those 5 from Canada arrive, I will send those pics to you too. A total of 14 NEW PICS!!!
