Wet Behind The Ears

Bought this lot on ebay pretty cheap but found 3 figures which are definitely not real figures. Softer rubber and was wondering what they came from? Thanks in advance. I know one of the real ones is missing hands so no biggie

Softer rubber figures are Kinnkeshi. Japan originals where Muscle derived from. They were made with softer eraser like rubber.

Fisheye is right about the softer ones in general - HOWEVER, your soft figures have a lot of flashing from the molds which tells me they may be bootlegs. If they say hong ion on their backs or have anything that isn't the standard MUSCLE type markings on their backs then they are boots. Otherwise kinkeshi.

Pretty sure they are bootlegs, don't have them in front of me but don't remember seeing the usual markings. Thanks guys! Haven't had Muscle figures since i was a kid. Oh the fun memories

Probably, they almost feel like erasers
