eBay – 1979 Kenner ALIEN Parts for Sale.

It looks like someone has found a Kenner ALIEN toy and decided to tear it down, listing all the loose parts on eBay. A good variety of parts are available including some items conveniently being sold in pairs. Listed are a pair of arms, pair of legs, a torso with tail and dorsal quad appendage set; and a loose head. None of the more highly sought after pieces have been listed. There’s no head dome, both parts of the vac plated tongue are absent and the ever elusive dorsal crest are not listed. Not a problem. There’s still some pieces here someone will want. Let’s take a closer look.

US$90 – Pair of legs. Minor scratches on surfaces that connect to the torso but the flanges are complete and unbroken. Both legs need a clean and have minor scratches, otherwise good average condition.
US$70 – Head. Some deformation to the ribbed detail along the right side of the head. Mouth trigger appears to operate. Some blemishes to the glow paint but the paint is otherwise unscratched. Both upper and lower sets of teeth are present and in reasonable condition. No tongue parts. No dome. Again, needs some cleaning.
US$80 – Pair of arms. Missing both rubber anchors needed to attach these severed limbs to the torso. Both hands have mutilations to the fingers to varying degrees. Elbow spurs are both complete and unbroken. In need of a good clean.
US$70 – Torso with tail and appendages. Tail is attached to the torso and is unbroken. All four quad appendage pieces are still attached to the mounting plate. The shoulder slot for a dorsal crest is clean, square, straight and unbroken. Also present and unbroken on the torso are the 8 support pins located inside the shoulders which are needed to keep the arms from collapsing within the torso.

A nice selection of parts, all in clearly used condition and needing at least some attention to clean them. Nothing a good soak in warm, soapy water and the generous application of an old toothbrush can’t improve. Seller will only post within the US.
