Remember these bendy aliens I featured late last year?

I found these three guys at the Allentown Antique Toy Show (which I am unfortunately too poor to attend this year). They are part of a series of six aliens called Outer Terrestrial Creatures and were produced by Marty Toy in 1983.
Believe it or not, the toys are bit of a challenge to find.
First of all, no one ever knows what they’re called, so it’s impossible to find them “correctly” listed on eBay or anything. You just have to luck-out when looking for alien toys. I’ve also never see them at other toy shows, flea markets, etc.
Luckily for me, a Weirdo Toys reader, Jimmy K, happened upon last year’s entry and offered to sell them (thanks Jimmy!)… and of course, I bought them 😉

So, looky here. The family has been reunited. I’ve finally gathered the other three alien characters, and a couple of them are alternate-color versions of those featured on the box. So, if I get bored or desperate, I can try to collect all the alternate colors of these guys.
Blobby – (Blue Version) The coolest of the bunch. His eyes look like worms crawling out of his eye sockets.

Mooky – (Green Version) A green monkey-looking guy with glasses and double biceps

Okky – (White Version) Octupus/squid-faced guy with suckers all over his body

That’s it. Thanks for looking. Oh, and let me know of any place I can find the alternate colors of the toys I’ve featured here. Thanks.

It may just be a left over component of the moulding process, but in addition to double biceps, Mooky also seems to be packing a little something extra down below, if you catch my drift.
Cool collection – congrats on completing it!
Ha! You’re right. Now we all know where your mind is 😉
Are you running out of room? I know you’ve got a ton of
Toys that you feel don’t meet the grade of this website.
I do have tons of toys I’m trying to sell. Just got rid of some at a yard sale last weekend. A lot of them I’ve purchased over the years that I just don’t like anymore. The ones that are “worthwhile” might go on eBay eventually.
Man i wish I woulda found that garage sale. The only ones here are mostly old lady’s clothing. 😛
Don’t worry Mistuh Thye, they were mostly McFarlane toys and Star Wars toys… but they were all wearing old ladies’ dresses.
Wow…another great post, I had an Okky at some point but not sure where I would have gotten it…don’t remember it being packaged, and never had any of the other figures pictured.
I’ve had “blobby” forever and made the decision to hunt down his brothers recently. In 5 minutes on this site i found out the names of two toy lines i hadn’t known for years! thanks!
oh, the other one was the “apple devil” now i need the rest of those too.
What about the Pizza hut Bendy aliens????
Thanks to you, Alien Species Wikia just got six new aliens to be added to the database!! You are a hero in my book.
=D
I have the 3 regular versions of Tiggy, Blobby, and Uggy. I found them at a flea market in New York I love them!
