  • Could this be the start of car day at MoFi? Stay tuned.
  • Wow. If all those women were modeled after Jackie O, somewhere hidden carefully away is a big old stinking pile of fiberglass pillbox hats.
  • But can Muffler Man take on Fuelman ?
  • Where are the Burger Boys? They wore, if I recall correctly, chef's hats and held a plate of hamburgers, had juvenile features and freckles.
  • The Michelin Man always scared the bejeebus out of me as a kid.
  • That "old school" Michelin Man is very Wilford Brimley-esque.
  • muffler man is intense. no, wait, that's repo man.
  • This Muffler Man ... it vibrates? MufflerManFilter I, for one, welcome our new Muffler Men overlords. MonkeyFilter: very Wilford Brimley-esque All your Muffler Men are belong to us.
  • "Where are the Burger Boys?" Are you referring to Big Boy? There are a couple pictures of them at this website. They have recently replaced the style in the big picture with the one lower down with Big Boy holding the plate with both hands. This depressed me to no end because back in my teenage years because I thought it was quite funny to put my croch near his lowered fist making it look like Big Boy was NSFW.
  • Those Big Boys, yes, they were of the same era. There were also giant L'il Abners, giant dinosaurs, giant wigwams, and even giant roadside buffalo -- before interstate travel such odd sights seemed to be all over the place.
  • Why not buy a big lobster?
  • Damn, freethought. That's greedy. Leave some for the rest of us, huh?
  • Ooo! Kitsch lives Down Under! The Big Lobster is most impressive, though it's the Big Galah I would covet. The Big Sheep, adrip with fleece, is an enchanting eyeful, too, I bet the guys who made it had fun. Thanks, Wolof!
  • Ahhhh, the BIG BANANA. Something a Monkey can dream about.
