MUSCLE BODY TORSO RECONSTRUCTION

NEW ALBANY, IN -- The scene is the February meeting of the Kentuckiana GIJOE club. The Air Adventurer had simply gone to pieces, not an unusual occurrence for a man his scale at his age. Spending the high school and college years in a cardboard box in the hot attic had taken its toll on the rubber joints at the shoulders, neck and elbows.

This was a job for THE MEDIC and the exclusive custom designed joint replacements he has had specially fabricated to make up the Muscle Body Upper Torso Kit (available in the Pharmacy). While full scale orthopedic hospitals would charge an arm and a leg (ha ha) for these joint replacements, the price at THE MEDIC is very reasonable at $16 for the kit, with professional installation in the Medic's OR priced at only $26.

This job was not done in the OR, THE MEDIC made a rare housecall on this occasion, bringing the necessary tools to the monthly meeting of the Kentuckiana GIJOE club meeting in New Albany, IN. The OR in Buckner, KY is equipped with drill presses and clamping setups which would not be suitable for viewing by the un-initiated. After you've seen a few more operative procedures, you might be ready to see the gruesome reality of 1:6 scale healthcare, complete with body parts and decapitated figures. Oh, I guess the figure at the left is decapitated, isn't it? Well - we warned you. Now let's get on with the procedure.
