Read more about The Action League at: Wikipedia Official Site: Nickelodeon Action League NOW! is a stop motion children's television series that was originally part of All That and then KaBlam! on Nickelodeon, and was later spun off into its own short-lived show. It was made using "chuckimation" (a combination of stop-frame animation and live-action shots where things are simply thrown or dropped into frame or wiggled around to simulate talking). The series follows the adventures of a superhero league, composed of various action figures, toys, and dolls. The show was created by Will McRobb, Robert Mittenthal, and Albie Hecht. Most episodes took place in a house of an unseen resident. Most of the characters were voiced by personalities from radio station WDVE in Pittsburgh. As of 2006, it is the second shortest Nicktoon ever lived after Angelica and Susie's Pre-School Daze, which had 4 episodes. ;The Flesh (Jim Krenn): "He's super strong and super naked!" — A blond, muscular, dim-witted bodybuilder who never wears clothes. His catch phrases include simple, immature terms such as "ouchies", "oopsies", and "yummers". The Flesh usually gets in the way of the other Action Leaguers when they're trying to save the day (by injuring them), but means no harm. His super power is super strength and he has been shown capable of lifting things many times his size such as busts and bricks. The figure used for Flesh was a modified Conan the Adventurer action figure.
The Action League has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
