Tell me I'm not the only nut to do this... SEE ATTACHED PICTURE. I know some of you will freak out when you see the pic, but if you look closely, you'll see he's less than mint. All of his fingers are half cut off. (I couldn't bring myself to compromise the integrity of a "mint" M.U.S.C.L.E.)! Making a keychain is very easy to do. go to one of those Dollar stores and buy a cheap keychain. The kind that have a screw on the end of the chain. Unscrew it from the crappy keychain, and twist it on down into the head of any M.U.S.C.L.E. It's a cool way of putting a beat up or slightly damaged M.U.S.C.L.E. to work instead of retiring him. Talk about a conversation starter! I can't tell you how many people said "Hey... I remember those! What were they called again?" or... "I used to have TONS of those". I'll never forget the time a lady at the post office said... "That's a cute Pink Baby on your keychain! You must have your wife's car keys today". I didn't mind though. I'll take any opportunity I can get to talk about M.U.S.C.L.E.!
Cheers,

I didnt even notice that Meat was missing his fingers. Thats a pretty good idea, I think I might it a try sometime. You could probley sell a couple of those on your site for about $5-$10 each. Of course you would have to be willing to sacrifice some good muscles to do this though.

You're not the only one. Mine has been on there for a while. I did'nt have to make any holes in mine though. Just slipped a keyring through his arm.

Best keychains I've ever seen..

Dude, that is a cool custom keychain! I might do that with some of my duplicate MUSCLEs.

[max powerz]

By retiering you mean giving them to me right?

[MUSCLETOYS]

Wow! I didn't even think of slipping a ring around their arms! I have some super deformed Kinnikuman figs with holes in their hands that this would work great with! The holes aren't from damage, but rather to hold weapons. Maybe I'll try it!

[smackman]

Yeah, anyone can do this there are a couple of muscles that you can do this to like #1 for example, and they wont be ruined. And like you said its a great conversation piece.

[Wraith]

i wouldnt do this with kinkeshi, they are a lot softer and when you are pulling your keys out of your pocket all the time, well, they might break off

[Dr.Frankenstein]

I have a few custom muscle key chains also......
I used to have all my doubles with marker on the feet glued standing up on my dashboard back in the day when I had a beater...

[Drtooth]

Oh yes... I have done that before.....



I had an extra "Angry Beaver" from a gvumball machine, and I did the same thing...


unfortunately, it fell off my back pack somewhere.... the screw through his head worked great... the little bead thing broke...

That is a fantastic idea! I have some extras that I would not mind doing that to. M.U.S.C.L.E. keychains!
