#107 Sunshine (E)

Pyramid smiles

Of the most beloved figures from the Mattel M.U.S.C.L.E. toy line by many is Sunshine, whether they knew the character’s name and origins or not while forming nostalgic memories with him. To the English markets this interesting creature appears multiple times in the Millions of Unusual Small Creatures Lurking Everywhere rebranded figures, but the pyramid is a common fan favorite.

Villain turned antihero in his original identity as one of the creative and awesomely imaginative characters produced by the artistic combo pair named Yudetamago of Japan. Where Sunshine and hundreds of additional characters the English markets probably didn’t know about much later, are still popular and evolving even today in the expansive Kinnikuman universe.

A member of the Seven Devil Chojin and a brutal enforcer with unique abilities from his reshape-able sand like body, he’s introduced as sadistic powerhouse teaming up with Ashuraman (another very popular character) but his character gains depth and greater presence through progression of the story arcs.

Interesting in both form and personality his shape shifting techniques make him an agile opponent whether in his identities story line, or his figure being used as a weapon by a sibling in heated battles of the living room. Either way the imaginations of fans bring him to life using his signature moves such as the Sand Hell, or in this form the Hell’s Pyramid transforming into the shape this figure represents to crush combatants exactly as you may have yourself growing up.
