ยท Beyond Barbie: According to a study published in the International Journal of Eating Disorders, popular action figures like G.I. Joe appear to be pumping steroids. In the 1960's, Joe had biceps equal to those of the average man - about 12 inches. In 1997 Joe had bulked up to an astounding 26 inch arm girth. Such large arms dwarf Cardinals slugger Mark McGwire, whose pipes measure in at a paltry 20 inches. (Time, May 31, 2000 p. 26)
