Thanx Bullseye! This piece is Tony McVey's interp. of the ID Monster from the movie Forbidden Planet ( the one w/ Robby the Robot ). It's about 9" tall, and about 10" long.

Yes sir, it is. McVey is known for his Dino sculpts, and I think he incorporated that aspect into this kit.

Best Sci-Fi movie ever! Star Trek before there was Star Trek!

Beware monsters from the ID!

Now if someone did a statue of Robby the Robot I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I don't know if there were any statues of Robby, but I do know there was a nice sized kit made of him.
