Copies of HIDEOUS PLASTIC – In stores everyone can hear you scream have been arriving in customers and contributors mailboxes. These have taken a little longer to arrive but they have made their way across the Pacific and are now being delivered. So far, the response and feedback has been very favourable. Those of you who have received a copy, please keep in mind I have no promotional undertaking for this book. It’s outside my ability to justify an expensive awareness raising exercise on the small production run of only five hundred copies. From this point onward, I will be relying heavily on word of mouth to spread News of its existence. So please, if you’re satisfied with the content of this publication, do take a minute or so to spread the word; in any way you choose to do so would be greatly appreciated.

Also keep in mind, this volume, while focusing tightly on the 1979 Kenner ALIEN toy, is intended to be the first volume in a trilogy dedicated to ALIEN action figures released during the past forty years. For that greater and more ambitious goal to be realised, this book has to be a success.

Thank you everyone who has purchased this book. I look forward to all feedback and any publicly released reviews you may choose to post. For those of you who are curious and want to know more about its contents, here is information about this book and the unusual toy it explores and celebrates.

This unique publication can be purchased directly from the author on eBay. Copies are posted from Australia.
