He is Alien.
Produced by Kenner in 1979, he stands 18'' high, complete with the original packaging. Particularly rare because he was judged too frightening for the toy shelves of the day, he commands instant respect. He comes complete with the full spine pieces and head dome that are often missing because they were so easily detached. He is a magnificent specimen and fiercely pursued on eBay.
The auction ends in just over two hours.
And right now, God help me, I am his highest bidder.
My wife knows I bid on him. In fact, she actually placed the bid herself while I stood over her shoulder and watched. That doesn't change the fact that I must be high.
Stay tuned.

Sweet!!! My grandmother actually bought me one of these for Christmas when I was nine or ten. I wish I'd kept it. It's got a trigger on the back of its head; when you pull it, the inner set of silver teeth come out of its mouth. Much luck, man.
Your grandmother wins Most Awesome Grandmother Ever for that one, Travis.
Meanwhile, this one's now officially mine. I've got to go talk to my financial guy about getting that second mortgage...
That is awesome, Joe. I had one when I was younger, but sadly in my youth it didn't survive long enough to be put away for safe keeping... Enjoy it. :D
