Those Unknown Creatures were released as two-part kits, with a mop of coloured Monster Hair, by Lindberg. I did an article on them a few years ago. It was called Truly Horrible. I think they were dated 1965, so that means the Trim Toys versions - dated 1964 - came first ?
These weird toys are so cool - I have never seen them before! I bet they fetch a hefty price online, if you can find them! SFZ

Wotan identified the figures as being based on North American Indian ceremonial costumes. A long way from space creatures.
