#40 is now the new anomaly that is blowing my mind. I'm tempted to think that maybe tree 2 of Part 13 might be more than one tree. but I can't place my finger on it. Sometimes this crap doesn't fit together at all, until someone drops the piece next to where it goes by accident.

About the so-called-errors of orange on MuscleDB: Is there any way to get the contact info for some of those who claim to own one and perhaps persuade them to give a pic? I've been really looking over the DB the past couple days, with all the talk of the errors and such, and I noticed some Siovas guy? 20 Salmon 167's and 12 Salmon 113's? I know that ain't right or if it is---can I have one of each??
That Siovas account is a false account created by someone who wanted to devalue the value of rare colors when I was selling them. I was linking the MuscleDB on my auctions and they registered that account on purpose with false information. Pretty shady.

Don't forget, arforbes, we already decided on a cut-off date.
So we've all subscribed to the one-year plan. Great! We'll have to remind each other when the subscription runs out -- 09/21/08.
Oh yeah, that's right. I couldn't find the thread with the date we agreed on. Thanks Soups!

Salmons are done!
That's right! Mr. Forbes has supplied us with the remaining two figures needed to round out the salmons! They belong to archive page 6, and they both belong to Part 14.
More specifically, figure 106 belongs to tree one and is a rare figure. The only other figure needed for that tree is a Purple 106.
Figure 116 belongs to tree two, is rare, and with its addition, all the figures in that tree are now accounted for!
There are approximately 13 figure left to be found! (The grace period for the FALSELY identified Oranges is now over.)

And therefore I have modified my needs list and photo to show exactly which colors I still need here...
http://www.littlerub...d...t=0&start=0
If there is anyone with ANY of these colors that would like to see the dream of a complete color set be accomplished and turned into reality, please let me know. If you are willing to part with them, I am willing to buy them, and at a huge profit to you. Thanks to all that have helped in the past!
26 to go! That's like one lot of figures on ebay, so close!

There is no picture of the Magenta #161 in the Muscle Numbers photo section of the MCIA...
http://home.comcast....rchiveNine.html
I think you forgot to add it there. And alos one other thing, and I think we've discussed this before, but does has a Green #2 been theorized to exist? I mean there was at least one made. Its clear as day on the Muscle Mega-Match Game box front. It was photographed and there fore must be on this planet somewhere.
But where?!

Here is the link to the MCIA Part 7...
http://home.comcast..../PartSeven.html
If you look at the tree that the #2 sculpt belongs to, then you see that it was run on a tree with the #100, #101, and #102. Those have to exist somewhere, even if the tree was molded only one time in green for the #2 Green pic on the Mega-Match Game box, all 4 figures have to exist in theory right?

Yep, you got it. After defining which sculpts belong to the same trees (which URS did years ago now), finding one sculpt on the tree in a certain color means the other sculpts on the tree can also be found in that same color. Now, whether these 4 green figures actually still exist and haven't been discarded by Mattel/Bandai is anyone's guess. They could all be sitting at the bottom of a landfill right now.If you look at the tree that the #2 sculpt belongs to, then you see that it was run on a tree with the #100, #101, and #102.

Incidentally, another new member here PM'd saying they had some rare figures needed for the archive. I PM'd them back but haven't heard anything back.

Think about this for a second...
It is likely that undiscovered Super Rares and Rare Muscle colors are sitting underground in a state of decay buried forever. NOOOOOO!!! If I would have only known as a kid I would have stopped it all! MUWAHAHAHAAAHAHAAHA!

Another milestone is reached! All the Light Blues are accounted for thanks to Marvin2000 for the addition of #036!
With the addition of the rare #036 Light Blue, Part One is now complete!
There are a total of 12 figures still waiting to be documented! All Salmon, Magenta, Orange, and now Light Blue figures have been accounted for!
(And I fixed the Magenta #161. Thanks, arforbes.)

OT: Arforbes, roughly how many miles do you think that poor, little dude in your signature has walked? And where the hell is going anyhow?
He's been around the world hundreds of times, to almost every city and town, state and country. He tips me off when he finds any undiscovered super rares...how do you think I come across them all the time?

First we have PURPLE #157 which completes Part 9!
Second is GREEN #166 which completes Part 16!
That leaves is with a grand total of 10 figures remaining to completely document the MUSCLE toy line!
Thanks ToyFiend!

I've taken so long to get this to you. I just snapped them on a bag, so let me know if they don't work.
I want to take better pictures of the 4-pack, so you'll still have to wait on those. Sorry.

It belongs to the mysterious Part 11. At one point, URS and I believed that Part 11 was not made in Red. But then Arforbes found a sculpt that belonged to Part 11 in red, and we could then predict that others would be found in red.
However, URS has said, I believe, that there is a possibility that Part 11 is actually two trees, not one as we currently have it configured. In other words, it may consist of two trees of 5 sculpts, one tree made in red, one tree not made in red.
This has happened one other time: Check out Part 8. Look at trees 1 and 3. These trees are exactly the same... except for the fact that tree 1 was also made in board game Grape. Had tree 1 not been made in board game Grape, tree 1 and 3 would appear to be one large tree. (I hope that makes sense.)
Only time will tell if Part 11 is indeed one large tree of ten. If it is, we should find the other sculpts in red as well. If it is actually two trees, then we will never find the remaining 5 sculpts in red. (However, it could also be made of two trees of uneven numbers. For example, it could be made of a tree of 6 and a tree of 4. In that case, we might find one more Part 11 sculpt in red, but no more.)
EDIT: And now we only need 9 more figures!

It is now possible to view at your leisure every MUSCLE figure in the MUSCLE toy line!
After Veers supplied the pic of the Red #136, we needed only 9 more figures. Arforbes sent images of those 9 figures to me a few days ago. I understand that Arforbes is no longer a member of our community but he has been supplying pics for the MCIA (indeed he has supplied roughly 90% of them, I'd guess) since before being banned, and I felt the value of the images for the MUSCLE community outweighed any "taint" their source might instill. And the fact of the matter is that I am very grateful to Arforbes for sending me all these pics.
Here are the final nine figures and the Kin MUSCLE Parts they complete!
Part Five - Tree One: 073 Dark Blue
Part Eleven - Tree One: 068 Red, 125 Red, 131 Red, 134 Red, and 139 Red
Part 13 - Tree Two: 040 Dark Blue
Part 14 - Tree One: 106 Purple
Part 18 - Tree Two: 186 Green
This is actually a bittersweet moment. I enjoyed every minute of putting this archive together! Of course, there would be no archive at all if it wasn't for all of you who submitted images! (If I've failed to credit anyone on the contributors page, let me know!)
And a special thanks to URS, of course, for all his help and individual work on the Kin MUSCLE Parts section of the site!
And as always, please don't hesitate to point out any mistakes or errors that you find. A common one is having a pic on the MUSCLE Archive side and not on the MUSCLE Parts side, and vice versa. Also, if there are any images that truly look bad and you can supply a better one, let me know! I definitely want to clean out all the poorer quality pics. (Most of which I supplied myself. )
