 Target Earth toy...? What is this creature, anyone?
(not my pic)
Target Earth makes some really great stuff.
Thanks for the help!

The tentacles on the face rotate and the arms have a nice menacing look to them.

The clear one in my first post was on eBay, and it fetched a not-so-killer $200 plus.
I would like to make some fine art prints using some of the more strange clear figures, this one especially.
Didn't have 200 bucks though...

There are a couple target Earth toys on the S7 site for sale and they are sharp! I am really likeing what they and like likes of Toygrapgh, Amapro, and Dream Rocket are doing.
Seems like they are picking up the slack when Marmit/Marusan seem to be sliding off...

This is a weird question, but how is the vinyl on the Target Earth figures? Is it squishy?
