Andy Rothwell made a video using his extensive collection of toys, set to the song “Shorty’s Ark” by Matt Sweeney and Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy. The toys themselves illustrate the lyrics. There are so many of these figures that I thought he must have a 3D printer, but these are M.U.S.C.L.E. toys from 1986. M.U.S.C.L.E. stands for Millions of Unusual Small Creatures Lurking Everywhere. They were only sold in the US in 1986 and ’87, although they were also popular in Japan. The Hard Knockin’ Rockin’ Ring Wrestling Arena was an accessory you could get for them. Rothwell made LEGO bleachers for the spectators, mechanized to show their excitement during a boxing event. I had never heard of these toys nefore I saw this video, but if you are a certain age, they may be a beloved part of your childhood. Or if you still have them, they may be a beloved part of your present!
