Hello everyone, just joined the forum and I'm looking for a little guidance. I've been wanting the same alien prop for a long time, mostly for a joke to put in the passenger seat of my car at car shows but there is really only one that has caught my eye. These specific alien props were use on the set of the x-files. Now they are collectors items and have not been standing up to the test of time very well. They are very expensive on ebay and such other places due to the collectors aspect and I'd like to try and make one of my own, to try and duplicate it if you will. I posted some images for you all to see, supposedly it is a foam filled latex doll. It does have poseable arms and legs, these dolls are about 3.5 feet tall from what I have seen. but I'd also like to make mine 360 degrees, these are flat backed. Some of my concerns are, what makes this poseable? I'm guessing there is some wire inside the foam but what keeps this from popping through the foam when you bend it? Also, where do I find these materials and how can I accurately duplicate the mold? I want to get some basis on where to start my research and honestly I just can't find anything accurate enough that relates to this type of project, thank you very much for the help.
