Gotta go with Fox. He's just a classic. He's a favorite from childhood, and he's a favorite from the Fox and Tortle Show. Gotta go with Fox.

Our glorious Milky Way is a tiny, infinitesimal speck of sand in this vast, incomprehensible universe. And somewhere in that Milky Way is our own solar system, less than one billionth of that speck of sand that is the Milky Way. And then there is our planet Earth, one hundred trillionth of that one billionth of that one speck of sand. And on this planet Earth there is DEV-0, an insignificant blemish with a lifespan too short to measure when placed in infinite time.

And you are here, with them, as so many specks of sand.

:D

I actually thought he was a regular cat or maybe a cougar.
Voted for him nonetheless, since I just love felines!

But the fact that he's a fox is just great, because that is actually one of my own nicks back here.
On top of that the fox was one of my two most favorite bb's as well.
(Can't wait 'till that bb-tournament begins... although I really do hope ALL 112 will be included in that one,
or at least all 76, and maybe do Lasers, Customs and God/Monster-beasts seperately...)

Fox and Tortle is a total classic. Tortle's a GENIUS.

I had to go with 108 this time. Although I think the Fox is awesome and certainly an integral part of the Fox and Tortle Show (not to mention the fact that anthropomorphic-animal MUSCLEs rock), I really like the sculpt of 108. I've always liked 108's costume details, and think his face sculpt is awesome. Sorry, Darrin! :D

But I think it would be awesome for Fox to go up against Tortle in a later round, so if Fox wins I won't complain.

Oh, and thanks, theorgg. ;)

This is a tough choice. #108 is a great looking toy. The sculpt is great, the detail is awesome, its pose (while not especially playable) is very emotive, and he’s feels very authentic (regardless of whether he is or isn’t).

Unfortunately for #108, #124 is just cooler. I think this is just an example of capturing cool. The analogy I would offer is #108 is the highest tech phone. It does everything, but you just want #124 because it’s cooler. Less features, but much cooler.

I really can’t put my finger on why #124 is cooler. It’s not the Fox and Tortle show. I thought he was cool before that, but I think the show helps to illustrate there’s just something cool about #124.

If I had to guess why #124 is cool, then I would offer two options: (1) the head; and (2) the pose. I think there’s something charismatic about the head. I don’t know why. My guess would be that you can project emotion unto the face. It could be a mean, angry, happy, stupid, funny, or sad fox. That’s something that you don’t seem to be able to do with every MUSCLE.

And I think the pose helps convey that vague emotion. It’s not over the top.

#108 should probably win on quality, but coolness beats quality almost every time.

I can't put my finger on why #124 would get that many votes. ;) It's a vague fox head on an otherwise normal, plain human body. There's no originality, no exceptional detail, zero effort to make him into a very interesting anthropomorphic character or figure, and not really what I'd call an emotional face either.

Im kind of neutral on this one. I voted for the sumo guys, just cause I think he looks a little cooler. Granted Fox rules, and has a better fighting pose, I have just never been extremely fond of him for some reason. I wont be sad either way which one wins or looses.

Aside from Fox and Tortle (which is possibly THE best web comic EVER!!!), I never really fancied the Fox. However, I have ALWAYS loved that Rikishiman sculpt! You know where my vote went! :woot:

I sadly went for Fox and it's only because of the "Fox and Tortle Show" :woot: Nah, that wasn't the only reason, I went with him because his fig was very playable and he looked really "stacked" and kick butt. one of the rare "South Paws" too. Just an all around cool fig.

I too really liked Rikishiman. He was always "Haku" from the Islanders in the WWF for me. a real powerhouse and I called him Ronnie The Samurai :p Very fun figure.

Tough Call, but Fox wins out this time!!!

This is a good one! I am going with Rikishiman no contest! I love this sculpt and I love his Yukata/apron thingy. :woot: This guy is in my top 20 favorite muscles. I think everyone pretty much covered these figs. I do kind of like the Fox for one simple reason. He has that little extra detail that you don't often see on figures so small. He has Fox written on his shorts. Very Cool!

I voted for #108 all the way for me.I love the detail they put into his man skirt.
I also like #124 but I think they could have gave him a better body,kind of feels like he was suppose to be a human sculpt but with little time left they give him a fox head.

WOLFman beats FOXman every time. No contest.

And how is 124 cool and 108 is not? Look at him...he's totally badass. And 124 looks mildly pinheaded. He totally takes the short bus to M.U.S.C.L.E. U., Veers. Sorry.
