    I've had these forever...but not sure what they are...not even a clue. i think they came in a box of stuff i got at a flea market, and so i've never seen the package, nor had the complete set(i think).
    I assumed they are part of MOTU like a Skeletor attempt to Modulok, but i don't know what this is...any clue?

    I found these while cleaning up today, and have more somewhere.

    OH! I just looked, and on the neck bone is M I 1988 (at least i think it's I, could be a rubbed down T)
    it's kinda small for Bone Age(i had the T-Rex and some others of that line)

    Mystery solved on a different forum:
    [quote author=djaxis link=board=toys&num=1235972123&start=3954#263 date=1322262370]they're from the mad scientist line

    the monster flesh set specifically[/quote]
    EUREKA!!! Thanx! i've wondered for 25 years what those were, but didn't have the internet back then to figure it out. yep, that's it.
    That's MATTEL too, right? so i have to wonder if these were supposed to be MOTU connected somehow, because the body reminds me of skeletor with all the cybornetic implants, much like Laser Skeletor and the first NA Skeletor.
    I guess MI is Mattel Inc.
    Well, i do not recall ever having the head. i wonder if i did, but used it elsewhere.
    Thanks so much!!!

    Maaaan, I was just thinking of making a thread asking for help on these the other day... I've had bits of mechanical bones floating around for years.
