Awesome film! One of my favorites too!

However, the toys you named are the only ones I'm aware of too. Good luck with the kits. I'm sure there are some out there.

i think sota toys made a 1/4 resin statue of the norris spiderhead alien, but i'm sure it would be to pricey these days for me if you could find one for sale.

Geez. I haven't seen that one in a while. You may want to post your want in the B/S/T section....

Here are a few shots of my "Dog Kennel" boxset from years back.....

i got this boxset lately, it was hard to find and pricey. really like it.
wish neca would do these, or maybe kotobukiya do vinyl statues of them.

My brother has that Norris head thing.

I had that one and it was pretty cool. Until it took a tumble off the shelf and exploded.

yes they were fragile.

I loved that movie! Really ahead of it's time as far as special effects. Hell they still hold up to this day. I'd love it if there were more toys made of them.

Hmm? You're right. This film would definitely fit their style.

Was a pretty good movie though, i think the story/idea had the potential to become a great movie.
