To see Gene Kelly as an action hero watch him in the 1948 version of The Three Musketeers. Great stuff.

That toy kind of makes a cameo in Toy Story 4 where he's a Quebecois Knievel named Duke Caboom voiced by Keanu Reeves.

imagine if ideal franchised that design. they could have applied all kinds of licenses to that play pattern. from ghost rider, the terminator, to batman, captain america, and even tron!

Absolutely right! I was a kid in the 70s and this toy RULED (along with Micronauts and Shogun Warriors). I love how you guys refer to it as "He", like Evel's soul exists within it, like freaking Chucky,. 😅

Me and my father loved that Evel Knievel cycle. It was tough, took so many hard hits, kept going.

Dudes! The Team America Super Stunt Dirtbike, also by Ideal, that came out about 5 years later improved on the Evil Knieval Stunt Cycle in every way. It had better shocks, knobby tires, and a better launcher. Even better was the Team America Marauder, which was an all black chopper version. I had all three, and The Marauder was the best. I always wanted a Megaforce version.
