      Had Evel with Stunt cycle(white Suit), Evel: Red Suit, Blue Suit, and Evel with Snake River Canyon Rocket. Evel was My Favorite Toy before Mego! But of course...He hung out with the Mego's...even though He was a little short.

          I had the stunt cycle set as a kid and like most it got beat up from all of the "stunts" I put it through (didn't take long either from what I recall). I also had that car, can't think of the name of it, but it had a fat bumper on the front of it. I reacquired the old set about seven years ago and it's in great shape including the box. I actually have two boxes but only one complete Evel set. One of the great iconic toys from the 70's!

            Are you kidding? Man I thought I was Evil Kneivel when I was a kid.I tryed jumping everything with my bicycle and wipped out many times just like he did.Cam remember laying on the floor in pain while mom doctored me up LOL . Man E.K. was one of my favorite toys growing up.I trying jumping that stunt cycle over creeks and everything.I never got rid of them either I still have Evil ,Scrabble Van with box I always put it back in box after playing with it,I have a chopper and an extra bike.I always wanted some of the other things but mom and dad couldnt get them. I lost his helmet somewhere down the road if someone has one. Also I still have the thermos but think mom sold the lunchbox when I was a kid. If anybody has one Id be interested. I guess I've said enough man you opened up alot of memories with this topic dogman67 Thanks Jerry

                As a child, I had Evel female counterpart, Derry Daring w/ stunt cycle. As an adult, I have several Evels, plus 2 Dragsters, funny car, 2 stunt stadiums, 2 Derrys, Wheelie car, several cycles. I just my my Back To Basics Toys catalog, and there's a "Father and Son" Evel and Robbie set, w/ Evel, Robbie, 2 cycles, 2 winders, 2 ramps and brick blocks to stack. I'm so getting these!

                  As a child I only had the Chopper, white EK, and the red racing suit EK. I never had a launcher and I had to push it on the floor to make it work.

                  Now I got a bunch of old stuff, plus all the newstuff.

                  Hardygirl, I too got the new BTBT catolog and saw the new set, I'll have to get it as well.

                    stunt cycle

                    I had the stunt cycle, and white EK. I had the launcher also. I tore that bike up, made it jump into holes, water , into trees.

                    I'm actually looking for a MOC EK.

                        I had some kind of Evel Knievel stint cycle with a hand crank launcher or something like that. I can barely remember it though.

                          I had Evel in the white suit with the stunt cycle and launcher. I also had the Team America version that Ideal made later with the hard plastic rider. I had the Team America Dune Buggy with figure as well.

                          I have the Playing Mantis reissue of the Stunt Cycle set now.

                            I had the stunt Cycle and the launcher along with E.K. wearing a white suite. Not sure what happened to them. Most likely he died in a very dangerous stunt then I got rid of the other stuff.
                            Thanks to Technology I can be the Hermit that I am today.
