Alf (is it called) Cling

Post by kennetzel »

Hi. Back when Alf was on TV for the first time, I bought a lot of Alf stuff...still have my Coleco Alf Doll and it still talks. But I was looking for some old photographs the other day and came across a box of pictures that had this little guy laying in it. I don't know exactly what this is known as...a clinger? a gripper? grabber? whatever. But here it is.

QueenofMelmac's is very different from the kennetzel's. I don't know the names in English, but the first one you can cling to anything that the grip can "take in" while Queen's has suction cups that make them ideal to have on car windows and such. In Sweden, we call the first one a "klamdocka", which translates to squeeze doll, and I hang one on my Christmas tree every year :)
