M.U.S.C.L.E. Announcer guy

 One of the standouts in my recent M.U.S.C.L.E. haul is this little stoic looking ringside announcer guy.

This is a M.U.S.C.L.E. I would have hated as a kid. I would have felt ripped off that I bought a set and a slot for a cool alien or monster was filled with this lame-o Howard Cosell wannabe.

He would have most likely ended up as backyard firecracker fodder.

But as an adult collector, I find him quite charming and a nice variation/addition to the M.U.S.C.L.E. ranks. He is after all the only non wrestler in the whole bunch! And he's perfect if I ever need someone to interview my toys and action figures. Hey, it could happen.

He is officially M.U.S.C.L.E. #162 (Nakano-San) and was available in the Cosmic Showdown 28 pack.

However I shall dub him 'Bryant Gumball.'

    I'm really liking this little guy... actually I went right onto Ebay and started searching M.U.S.C.L.E. men lots!

    Haha! I used to call him 'Willy Chuckles'. I think I prefer Bryant Gumball.
