  1. That's one ugly alien. Why's he wearing a tee-shirt? (Guffaw!)

    1. Spring-loaded AND atomic-powered in my case. Nothing personal, but it's just crying out to be a caption competition. How about...

      "You can find YOUR perfect date on Match-Mate.com"

      "Hey, I ordered chips with this."

      "I don't understand it. I'm a great ventriloquist, so why does the audience always run out screaming?"

      "So much for my Hallowe'en costume. How will I ever fit into this?"

      "When my mother said the other side of the family were a bit 'different', I wasn't expecting this."

    1. If you know anyone with one they might let you do this Brian! http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/index.php?/topic/10185-repro-1979-kenner-alien-box/ alternatively there are repro boxes available. Here's one in Blighty which looks rather spiffing https://www.replicator-boxes-and-inserts.com/product/replacement-vintage-kenner-alien-box-and-inserts/
