What is the point of owning a Super duper rare figure if you can't show it off or share it with the people who love the same thing in the collecting community your in. It's heart breaking that most of the figures are in someone's collection that isn't even in this awesome tight knit community anymore. I hope that someday he sell's the figures back to the LRG community were they really belong. Nothing else would be a greater I'm sorry than doing the right thing. I'm sorry I know im new to this site and maybe this has all been said before

I know people in the community that have super rares (or rare packaging/advertising), but don't want anyone to know. Everyone has a different way of thinking when collecting.

Your right everyone has there own way thinking. But it would be nice if that list of super d rares was updated somehow. I get that people don't want to be bothered all the time with offers to buy but on the other hand it tells us the value. I would love to see your collection but I Live in Iowa.

Not an IRL one that I know of (as muscle collectors tend to be sparsely geographically located) but there’s a lot of buying, selling, and trading that goes on in M.U.S.C.L.E. Collector Facebook Group.

As a point of reference, when I post Sale / Trades on LRG I typically get about 2-3 engagements, on the FB group about 60+ engagements. If you’re looking to connect with other collectors to trade specifically, it’s worth checking out.

Happy Holidays. :)

I think it would be hard to update what rares are where, since some collectors aren't active right now.


As for the fb muscle group, I've been in the group for awhile and so far it's a good experience. A lot of the members are fairly new collectors with a lot of excitement, although there are many long time collectors on there. Many aren't that familiar with kinnikuman so I've been sharing a lot of info and connecting dots for them. And There has been a few sales interactions that have been twisted and spun around a bit to make some people look worse. Some older collectors are just bullies and get upset when they don't get what they want.

Man.. we dreamed of doing a con back in the early days of The M.U.S.C.L.E. Preservation Society. Some of the old school collectors may remember us talking about it back in the day. Mega trade sessions, Kinnikuman Anime marathons, costume contest, displays with ultra rare items, exclusive merch, etc. etc. etc.

Maybe someday..

Imagine all the Keshi and toy makers that would love to get in on this now.
