Kwisatz Hadderach: I suspect the thing that this toy recalls to mind is either the Harryhausen "Ymir" monster from the 60s flick "20 Million Miles to Earth," or the Harryhausen Cyclops from "The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad." In any case it's pretty derivative and not especially impressive to me. That graphic that's been on the site for some weeks, of the mutated cetacean-like monster with the baleen whale face, blue whale like tail and giant lice for parasites, was much more interesting and unique. I also hope the "parasite" theme of the little monsters incubating inexplicably inside humans is just some blogger's flight of fancy; it, too, is just an "Alien" ripoff and if that happens in the film I might just get up and walk to the next screen over out of sheer disgust.
