Arnold's Best Year?

[Palpatine Q]

they did, however, morph the waist in that first picture to appear smaller. look at the left hand in the top pic and in the ironman cover.

It's not the same pic.

It's from the same photoshoot, but it's a different one

Agreed. His head is turned differently, and the shadows are not the same. Same day, not the same picture.

Dave, you ain't hating on Arnold because of YOUR waist now, are you? 

[BEAST 8692]

You ain't kidding.

arnold had an amazingly peaked right bicep but it NEVER looked like this.

the pic has very obviously been messed with.

Here's an untouched similar shot. Slight enhancements in peak, triceps and forearms in the first one.

uh, no. Those are two different pictures from the same day/photoshoot. Look at his head/eyes, they're pointing in diff. places in the pictures.

Wow, the ignorance of the digital age. It's not morphed, i have the cover of that book and it looks exactly like that. It's an insanely peaked bicep and when the picture was printed on the cover of the book ( in the 70's) they did NOT have the ability to fake muscles. Sorry, it's real.

Arnold was a master at hiding his flaws!

LOL

if your talking about is quads they weren't really flaws back then.  Arnolds quads probably set the starndard at the time, it wasn't until Platz came along that everyone started having these gigantic legs.  Platz and Tim Belknap hit the scene and shocked everyone.  I'd like to see some pics of the 78 olympia-which I've never seen and compare them to the legs of guys onstage in 80 or 81, that woulld be something.
