Clearly #177 is the winner. It’s a kickass humanoid dragon wearing armor. What’s not to love?

Even if you thought they were equal sculpts, #177 even has a more playable pose. #177 is just a super figure. It has great detail and can stay standing through an earthquake, something about 90% of MUSCLE’s can’t do. I think even the armor on the figure has a cool design.

#42 isn’t a bad figure. It has a nice sculpt and always struck me as someone wearing a suit of armor made from bricks – which I think is pretty cool, no matter how impractical. It’s a shame that the arms are at the sides.

#177 is the winner, and I think a figure to watch as the tournament continues.

42's not a bad figure per se, but as long as Sunshine's around he's always gonna be "that other brick" guy, and can never aspire to anything better.

And lizard men are awesome.

#177 does not rock my boat by any means, but....#42 is just "meh" personified. How did he get to be a 7 seed? This is going to be a blowout.

Not really crazy about either of them but 177 is definitely better.

I went with the Chinese Dragon. He is a more playable sculpt. That's really about it. Neither figure elicits much excitement from me.

I'm going with 42. There are more cooler Lizard characters out there. I've had 177 since I was a kid, and I never liked his crown, and his tail kind of got in the way when I was trying to stand my characters like dominos. :p And well, great stability is a no no when your playing muscle dominos.

UM, Duh. This is a no brainer! 177 wins this one easily. I'll called him Gremlock in my play and he was just a monster that kicked ass! He was sort of my Undertaker with a massive chokeslam, and his Brymstone Piledriver! He was one of my all time favorites too!

the other guy was cool, I called him Brickhouse Brown, a guy that just got out of prison type of character. His pose was really sort of dull from a play standpoint. But he was always tough, as how can you hurt a guy covered in brick? He just wasn't a favorite. 177 was!!!

177 for the WIN!!!!

177 by far

He looks vicious and everything about him is sharp and painful... his claws, his teeth, his tail! i had two of these sculpts as a kid so they were a tag team and were constantly at the top when it came to tag team championship wrestling tournaments.

I love 177 myself. He's a great sculpt and unique in the sense that he has a Chinese style that distinguishes him from the other reptilian MUSCLEs. Also, his arms allow for great playability, and his tail makes him easy to stand up. Really, one of the best MUSCLEs out there.

There's not that much happening with 42. Although I like the figure, he's more of a secondary character.

I went with 177, because if Nate likes him I like him.;) Hahahahahaha j/k Really both figures are cool. I like the looks of 42 is he a Sun Shine Figure? But they really did well with this sculpt. The stone armor makes him stand out.

But I just can't get over how 177 looks. Like Nate was saying a Chinese/Japanese style dragon. I love dragons and couldn't pass on this one.

177 for me!

I have a serious problem!

I really like both these sculpts a lot, and can not find myself liking one better than the other.

Doesn't often happen.

I decided NOT to vote, though I kinda was thinking of voting for the underdog (42) here,
but I would be doing it for that reason only, so no vote this time, both these muscles look great, period.
