In 1993, Star International commissioned and produced a special set of the top 100 bodybuilders, both female and male, at the current time that were in the IFBB. Some of us have the complete collection, and more. They were distributed in a box of 36 packs, 9 card in a pack. On the cover of the box was Christian Duffy and Mike Matarazzo, with the IFBB Logo right on the box. To see the complete IFBB trading card collection, go to: IFBB Trading Cards Pictures
Ok, we take pictures of some of our favorite figure and fitness competitors, but soon, we may even get to play with them. Siren (Valarie Waugaman), Stealth (Tanji Johnson), Fury (Jamie Reed), and Venom (Beth Horn) just might have their own action ‘figure’ doll in the works. According to a press release: “Jakks Pacific signed an exclusive worldwide master toy license with MGM Consumer Products for American Gladiators, a television program that airs on NBC. Jakks expects to launch a line of American Gladiators toys and related products in Spring 2009, based on the characters and challenges seen on the show. American Gladiators is produced by MGM Television and Reveille in association with Flor-Jon Films, Inc. The comprehensive American Gladiators license agreement includes action figures, accessories, as well as outdoor sports and seasonal products, and role play toys, all based on the new American Gladiators live action series and the classic television series.” Now, we need some for the bodybuilding community too.
