Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines

kaddursalNovember 1, 2001

"Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines" was an adventure mini-series featuring four monster trucks such as "Bigfoot 4x4", "Black Gold 4x4", "Orange Blossom Special", and "Warlord", the plot of the story in this cartoon was kind of like The Dukes Of Hazzard. The characters in this cartoon were:"Yank Justice", "Red & Redder"(Red haired twin sisters), "Professor D.", "Close McCall", "Jennifer", "Adrian Ravenscroft"(Mr. Big), "Mr. Sly", and "The Limousine Chauffeur". The voice actors in Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines were: -------------------------------------------------- "Lance LeGault" as: Yank Justice "Susan Blu" as: Red, Redder, and Jennifer "Arthur Burghardt" as: Professor D. "Wally Burr" as: Close McCall "Peter Cullen" as: Adrian Ravenscroft (Mr. Big) "Chris Latta" as: Mr. Sly "Neil Ross" as: The Limousine Chauffeur -------------------------------------------------- ....In the story, Adrian Ravenscroft, Mr. Sly, and The Limousine Chauffeur were after a woman named "Jennifer" who was a holder of a map that lead to the fountain of youth in Florida, Yank Justice and his monster truck team helped Jennifer escape across the country. Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines had never had any additional episodes to this mini-series while it was on Super Sunday, but I would like Sunbow Entertainment to produce additional episodes of Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines, also Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines was released from "Hi-Tops Video" and then it was immediately discontinued, and now I would like "Rhino" to re-release this cartoon again on video and DVD.
