I think the personalities behind Mr. Getbig made it a hit.
Kiwiol - you're a big dude; props. I gather you're 5'8', how heavy are you in the 1st series of pics? I can't see many good shots of the wheels. I suspect if you dieted down you'd look really good
Herc - Good upper body from the front, I think your back and legs (leg photo in the other thread) are behind in development compared to chest & arms.
BabyHerc didn't even diet for the last Mr.Getbig, but he is a serious competitor and looks great when in shape
True Adonis is supposedly leaner, but I don't think his conditioning was bad in the first place, if he loses more fat & muscle without working on his deficiencies (i.e. legs), I doubt he will win
Alexx has made some good improvements, especially in the legs, just looking at the pics posted vs. BillyGuns
Daddywaddy has withered away.
If Bast worked his legs as hard as his upper body, he'd be a serious threat.
