Mike Power beats Steve Austin! :shock:

I can't believe you have the Bionic Man! Looks to be a great speciman, too. Minty! I have a Mike Power, but he smells... umm... uhhh... like that old plastic putrid smell. Unfortunately he was stored with some AT clothing and the clothing also reeks. :cry:

I had the Bionic Man figure before the Mike Powers as a kid. Actually both of those in the picture were mine from childhood. The Mike Powers figure was way cooler to me because of the articulation. But, there is still that whole problem with Powers having only one bionic leg and running 200 hundred miles an hour in a circle. Bugged me then and still bugs me. I'm going to find him a second bionic leg. "We can rebuild him" and all that.

Steve Austin all the way. I still have several of my Six Million Dollar man toys. My favorite was Bigfoot and Maskatron. I only have pieces of maskatron, but my Austin and Bigfoot figures are in great shape.

I used to think it was so cool when he would take off runnign in slow motion with the sound effects. I used to do the same around the house........now I think I was just brain damaged as a child.

*running away VERY slowly*......nun nun nun nun.......

I guess we were all brain damaged, I spent at least three years as a kid running in slow motion making the bionic sounds. I picked up the Bigfoot series on DVD and now my kids are doing it to.

Without a doubt my favorite was Mike Powers. My aunt bought me the Six Million Dollar Man in the picture (and I already had one). They never got out of the toybox like the Mike Powers . 6M$ Man got a lot of shelf time.

Can't wait to see him Destro. I am working on a custom Bullet Man right now myself. It isn't original though, I am using a newer Joe and hoping this chrome paint sticks!
