Grab your spare parts now! Nope. That’s not a euphemism. Several 1979 Kenner ALIEN toy parts have become available on eBay. These loose items are ideal if you want to repair/restore an incomplete figure. Available are both arms along with the head. None of which are complete but all very useful if you need these items. The head at US$79.99 is the least attractive proposition on offer here. Battered and missing the dome along with all four mouth parts, this item features scuffed and stained paintwork on its upper surface. Significantly, it is broken at the neck and the piece needed to fit the head in place is not included in this listing. Any attempt to return the head to a torso WILL require some alternative and creative means of doing so. At least it’s clean.

The left arm at US$49.99, is missing its rubber arm anchor but is otherwise a good purchase. It’s generally clean but does feature signs of wear, especially around the ball joint where it has previously been attached to its former torso. Again, an improvised method will be needed to reattach the limb.

The right arm at US$49.99 is likewise missing its rubber anchor and exactly like it’s matching limb is otherwise complete with marks around the ball joint. It will go a long way to complete a figure with just a little attention.

Great pieces if you need ’em to complete a figure; but that head is in mighty rough shape, though. The arms are the real prizes here, and cheaper, too.
