In [[Figure Fighter]], the player sees a grey Muscle Doll punching a bag in a small boxing ring as an announcer tells it what kind of punches to do. This doll reappears in [[Figure Fighter 2]], where it fights in a boxing ring surrounded by fans, defending its champion title. In [[Figure Fighter 3]], a red version appears, defending its title once again. Despite being a different version of the toy, it is implied this doll is the same as the one seen in the previous games. | In [[Figure Fighter]], the player sees a grey Muscle Doll punching a bag in a small boxing ring as an announcer tells it what kind of punches to do.
