M.U.S.C.L.E. LINKS

The internets very first M.U.S.C.L.E. website!
If it wasn't for this particular site, the rest of these sites might not even exsist... especially MCW!
Back in 1997, Darrin Vindioli's MPS was an organization whose sole purpose was to recover, restore, and rehabilitate the endangered toy species known as M.U.S.C.L.E.. Today, the MPS stands as a historical landmark within the M.U.S.C.L.E. community and has plenty of interesting and detailed facts on the M.U.S.C.L.E. toyline, accounts of M.U.S.C.L.E. marketing and media blurbs, collecting tips and most importantly, in-depth coverage of the MPS and M.U.S.C.L.E. history on the web including the on-line petition sent to Mattel back in '99. You're not a true M.U.S.C.L.E.-Head until you visit
the Holy Grail of M.U.S.C.L.E. sites!

	My personal favorite M.U.S.C.L.E. site! (sorry other all you other M.U.S.C.L.E. sites) Years ago, Nathan Newell had literally taken a M.U.S.C.L.E. 4-pack and brought it to life into what became a small but extremely creative fan page. Over the years, Nathan's site has become the quintessential archive of the M.U.S.C.L.E. and Kinnikuman toy lines while maintaining a study stream of highly quality M.U.S.C.L.E. entertainment. An absolute must see site for M.U.S.C.L.E. fans!

A place where M.U.S.C.L.E. enthusiasts gather to buy/sell, trade and discuss a number of topics related to M.U.S.C.L.E. and other similar toy lines. If you're serious about getting into the hobby, this should be your... okay, 4th stop after MCW, the MPS and Nathan's M.U.S.C.L.E. Page.

			M.U.S.C.L.E. artwork that was originally inspired by MCW (I love that fact!) Kevin has been shelling out M.U.S.C.L.E. art for over a decade. His talent, dedication and generousity to MCW, the MPS and the M.U.S.C.L.E. community in general is something to be applauded. Visit his on-line gallery to see his extensive array of brilliant M.U.S.C.L.E. art.

	A great site for entensive Kinnikuman information. Learn the Japanese origins of your favorite M.U.S.C.L.E.s with plenty of info on every generation of M.U.S.C.L.E./Kinnikuman.

			Perhaps the most intriguing of all the M.U.S.C.L.E. sites. Chad Perry delved deep into the Mattel/Bandai corporations to find his information (or attempted to at least). Regardless if their lack of information or "lost records", Chad brings some very interesting facts of M.U.S.C.L.E./Kinnikuman rarity, highlighted by the "super-rares"... Those alone are an awe-inspiring site to behold!

	A visual archive cataloging every M.U.S.C.L.E. and Kinnikuman in every color ever made, an impressive task. Though not quite complete from the looks of it, so the search goes on…

			This site features character bios and backgrounds based on Kinnikuman magna as well as some cool collection pics all brought in a comically fun fashion!

	An oldie but a goodie! The internet's 3rd M.U.S.C.L.E. site, Tim's page has a few odds and ends to round out the hobby.

A couple random imports...

Naochin's Kinkeshi Archives
A great site featuring Kinkeshi (Japanese M.U.S.C.L.E.) It's in Japanese, but you can still manage to navigate through it pretty easily. Plenty of pics of the Japanese M.U.S.C.L.E. toy line!

Exogini
M.U.S.C.L.E. from Italy! Or as I like to call it... M.U.S.C.L.E. Bootleg Italiano!

MCW's rival M.U.S.C.L.E. Wrestling promotion:

EMW was our main our competition 1998 and this a crappy-ass M.U.S.C.L.E. wrestling site's sole purpose is to cheapen the quality of my MCW site. These are just words of war within the wrestling business of course. Chad was actually my best friend among the internet M.U.S.C.L.E.-Heads. Aside from his own array of vibrant characters, EMW excelled where MCW leaves off... UPDATING! EMW brought it's fans a consistent stream of monthly events with color commentary. Go extreme, go EMW!

And a few others who have fallen at the hand of MCW...

Dave Woodrum's M.U.S.C.L.E. Wrestling League (barely makin' it these days)
The phrase "Good ol' fashion rasslin'" comes to mind here. Dave was another good friend I made through our interests in both M.U.S.C.L.E. and wrestling. But unlike me, Dave went on to live his dream and actually became a pro-wrestler on the indy circuit. What’s left f his site still stands… so you can see how easy it was to run the MWL out of business. Bwahahahaaa!

Kinniku-M.U.S.C.L.E. Wrestling (still kicking every 3 years or so)
Pretty impressive for a non-colored league.

Chris Bores' M.U.S.C.L.E. Nitro (comatose)
Whether it's intentionally or unintentionally, this is a crudely entertaining little site. The graphics have a very unique look to them and though they are a bit choppy and cheesy, they kinda give it that "South Park" look which adds to the humor of things here. Chris was last scene as the Irate Gamer on YouTube, evidence that he never fully recovered from the failure of M.U.S.C.L.E. Nitro.

Chip Zatopek's M.U.S.C.L.E. Wrestling Federation (dead but doesn't know it)
Not only did this guy blatantly rip off the WWF logo, he also ripped off the name "M.U.S.C.L.E. Wrestling Federation" which did at one time belonged to one of the other M.U.S.C.L.E.-Head’s organizations. Regardless of the guerrilla tactics, the MWF pretty much buried itself.

Frontier M.U.S.C.L.E. Wrestling (dead and buried)
I have never seen or even heard of any M.U.S.C.L.E. wrestling actually taking place on this site. But it did exist at one time.

The M.U.S.C.L.E. Preservation Society Wrestling League (dead)
A M.U.S.C.L.E. wrestling league exclusively for members of the MPS! File out a profile template, send it in and watch your own personlized M.U.S.C.L.E. stride for the MPSWL World Championship. But not even the M.P.S. itself along with all it’s members could take down MCW!
