MATTEL had pretty good success with
M.U.S.C.L.E. so they played off of that idea and created yet another
toy line of small, non moving plastic figures with an acronymic
name. The end result was C.U.T.I.E.! The toy line
featured all kinds of little girl figures doing all kinds of girlie
things.
C.U.T.I.E.'s were available in packs
of four and ten. The four packs actually looked similar to
M.U.S.C.L.E. four packs, and the ten packs almost resembled a
smaller version of a twenty-eight pack. The trays inside the
C.U.T.I.E. ten packs looked incredibly similar to the trays inside
of M.U.S.C.L.E. twenty eight packs. They were made from the
same type of plastic, and were the same color of blue. There
weren't "millions" of them however, just "dozens and dozens" as the
packaging stated.
Five themed sets were
available and were named as follows; Gym Dollies, Lovey Doveys,
Tiny Trendies, Rockity Rollers and Bitsy Babies.
Just like
M.U.S.C.L.E., you could mail away for a C.U.T.I.E. poster which
showcased all of the different figures available in the toy line.
While we never bought C.U.T.I.E.'s as kids, we managed to snag
a few from my friends sister, so our championship M.U.S.C.L.E.
wrestlers could have some groupies to follow them around!
