I was talking to fuzzbuster in the chatroom earlier today and I asked if anyone had ever seen a Magenta claw and fuzz said that he may know someone who does! He is going to try to get a pic of this figure. I thought that we could get more info on this if I opened up the topic up for discussion.

Please fuzz, if you have any info, please let us know. This will mean that there is a M.U.S.C.L.E. that was made in every color.

That would be cool. I thought Rideryu said he knew a guy with one once.

[Beligerant1]

yeah i know that there was a guy on the email list a long time ago that had said that he had one. He even had one of the first websites, cant remember his name or anything though. I just remember that he had a website dedicated to his girlfriend or something like that, he kept that one up but let the muscle website fall to the wayside.... Anyway i emailed him about it and he never got back to me so i dont know whether he really had one or seen one or not.

I think it exists. I don't think that Mattel would go out of its way to not make one color of every figure. I think that they were just made at random, depending on what plastic was in what mold at the time. Some were made less of, some more. A lot probably were never made in every color, but some must have been, hopefully.

[Ridureyu]

Yeah- Pat Gresham had one, I remember.

Yeah- Pat Gresham had one, I remember.

Did you ever see it though, like in a pic? He could have just said he had one.

[Ridureyu]

Yes, actually. His sitye had teeny-tiny thumbnail pics of all of his MUSCLEs- in the Magenta section, there was a claw.

Is his site still up and running? I would love to see this!

[Ridureyu]

Unfortunately, he discovered girls, and that was the end of everything.

Haha!

Anyways, if you said you saw it, then that's enough proof for me. You have been around for a long time Ridureyu and I know that you have probably seen all you needed to see to be convinced of its existence. I believe there is a Magenta Claw out there somewhere, we just have still yet to find it/them.

maybe someone on the mailing list or boards actually does have a magenta claw and just doesnt want to say anything because of all the hassle and possible offers to purchase it that it would bring. or maybe they are waiting to get the other claw colors and then have a final "reveal" of all the colors......
it seems hard to believe that in all these years that not one of the big collectors from the begining has ever come across one. imagine the odds......

It's enough that when I first heard people talking about the Magenta claw, I thought, "Well, didn't Pat have one?"

Well then, it must exist then. That would be hella-cool to see one pop up one day. It would go for so much, probably as much as a super rare.

Fuzz,

Got any info you can share with us about the person who you think may own a Magenta Claw?

[fuzzbuster]

I am still trying to track this guy down, I think he may be out of the state right now.
I shall definately let you know what is up once I find him.

Thanks man! That would be totally cool to find out for sure if the Magenta Claw actually exists.

***Note: The above statement actually deserves more than a single woot.

[jkaris]

Hahaha, I guess Patrick Gresham DIDN'T have one. He is asking if anyone ever had one in another thread.......

Is that the guy who supposedly owned the Magenta Claw? Which thread is he asking about the Magenta Claw in?

[smackman]

I remember seeing it on the kinnikuman mailing list.

[arforbes]

I remember seeing it on the kinnikuman mailing list.

Really? Like a picture of it? Are you sure?

No, I remember him asking about a magenta and purple claw.
