That one guy
Serving as one of the stranger minor villains from the creative world of Kinnikuman long before he was introduced without an identity in the Mattel M.U.S.C.L.E. toy line. This candle-themed contender is mysterious form from Switzerland who manipulates light to confuse opponents. Except we’re still not sure the meaning of the letters on his forehead or the numerals on his chest.
Appearing during the Dream Chojin story arc as a member of the menacing Perfect Chojin faction obsessed with absolute superiority. His recognizable while confusing figure includes a flame like headpiece and a gimmicky presence the franchise is famous for. With a mentioned “Diamond Dust” technique to his limited appearance fighting method.
Creating characters from every-day things to more outlandish interpretations of forms from mythology and the supernatural is what the Kinnikuman universe does in top-tier style. Thanks to a pair of Japanese friends who took their doodles to the massively popular series still produced today under their collective name Yudetamago.
While we’re still looking for a better image reference and more details on the character many fans enjoy the faceless mystery of the form. Posed in a generic wrestling stance ready to battle any comers in the epic imagination driven tournaments of our youths. He presents another great example of the creative character design the franchise still grows and produces even today.
To collectors of the beloved toy line by Mattel he’s one of the five figures included in the original M.U.S.C.L.E. board game that contained his exclusive “grape” color figure. He still brings a bit of controversy in that nobody seems to have an answer for his forehead and chest lettering.
If you happen to know let us know, as the verdict is still out if it says “Zod”, “Lod”, “Zcd”, or some none english script. The IX numerals also haven’t been adequately explained as the nine reference isn’t found in the limited depth explained for the character. Either way, he makes a great figure form contributing to the enormous roster that is Kinnikuman / M.U.S.C.L.E.
