    What are you looking for it in. Resin? Silicone? Latex? I dont know anyone who makes them but if your looking for someone to make on i'd be interested in any material.

    Thanks

    ^ Any material would be neat. I was especially curious since there have been so few displayed here.

    Send me a pm if your interested in getting one made as i'd be more than happy to and ill quote you a price for a silicone one or a resin one. Would you want it painted or blank to paint yourself?

    Didn't Howard offer one of these? Or did he only get the head done.

    I've always wanted one to go with my communicator.

    There's a vintage E.T. laundry hamper that's life size and a pretty good sculpt.
    I saw a nice repaint of one recently.

    My dad works for hasbro toy company and has one in his office. Obviously it wouldn't be for sale but I could probly get you a dozen pictures if you wanted to try and build one yourself. Also there's a little plaque and I could get you all the information from the plaque. Tell me if you're interested...

    Hi
    I have one but I'm not sure who made it. I picked it up off ebay in the UK so maybe it was made here. Here are a couple of pics:





    The finger lights up with the switch on the base. Very cool!

    Yes that's very nice however not very screen accurate though.

    Here's are some reference shot of ET to compare :





    That body of Cave_Troll's ET is not quite in the same scale
    as his head compared to the original.

    I too have one of the old Laundry Hampers. I had it as a child and luckily my
    Mother kept it. It sits in my collection unpainted, but I plannon doing a full repaint on it.
    It it pretty cool as is, but will look even better painted. Plus these are extremely affordable. I saw one recently on eBay with an
    Ending bid of $40.

    This is mine. I've told this story before, but it bears repeating. I'll always be indebted to Willie Goldman who alerted me when this was for sale at Monsters in Motion. (It's not any more to my knowledge. This was a few years ago.) I was told it was sculpted by a Disney Imagineer for himself and this is a pull from his molds. I air brushed it myself. Then I got Beverly Hoffman, who did the glass eyes for Spielberg's E.T., to do a set of eyes for mine. The eyes are slightly set back in the head to allow for a mechanism to rotate the eyes, left, right, and around while a lamp glows red inside the chest. (Mechanism doesn't work currently. Got to get it fixed some day.)

    I've never seen another one like this one. If anyone knows who sculpted this E.T., I'd love to know, just to thank him!
