And funny ...I had the posable figure with the bike. And funny that anon above mentions his dog, because my dog had a habit of ritually slaughtering any action figure or human-shaped toy I left on the floor. <br />Well, he killed my Big Jim Doll, he killed the Evel Knievel doll, and he even tore up Stretch Armstrong. Which was quite a feat, because those things were hard rubber and weighed as much as a bowling ball, and he was not a big dog.<br />We all saw a pattern there. He was pretty neurotic, sometimes, but otherwise he was a pretty good dog. He ended up dying from a stroke at the age of thirteen. <br />We still miss him, and I could never bring myself to get angry at him, even when he shredded my Christmas presents.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-29044858014894063082013-12-21T18:03:32.909-05:002013-12-21T18:03:32.909-05:00i loved evel knievel when i was a kid,ive still go...i loved evel knievel when i was a kid,ive still got the classic bike set.i seem to remember a stunt cycle that was fired out of a shotgun type of thing.it came with a set of barrels to crash through but i remember mainly scaring our dog with it.was this an evel knievel set too?<br /><br />GobshyteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
