I dont believe it is. I know I saw someone on here say that they are all the same size, but this is not true. there are apparently 9 different versions of it, and different sizes. even just reading the amazon reviews, being smaller than what they remembered is a common thing that is brought up.
As of right now, that is the most accurate Slinky around, flaws and all. That is the same one that wampar has in his collection, so it must be the best, right?

Is that referring to the Etch a Sketch or the Chatter Phone?
Not quite sure if this is the right place to post this, but whatever.
I tried the Magic Eraser thing, but that didn’t work at all!! Any advice on how to clean?
Dang, that’s unfortunate. First of all, don’t use Goof Off or Goo Gone. That will most-likely stain the plastic. Other than that, I don’t really have a lot of suggestions (due to the price of these things, I wouldn’t want to ruin the paint or something for you). If it’s crayon, you might as well try gently scratching it off with your fingernail.

Etch, of course. The post right above mine.
Those Sid and Andy dolls are beast. I assume they don’t carry those anymore?
Nope, I’m pretty sure they only made those for a short period after '95. Either way, they command big bucks.
Sad day. They look so good, and I thought Sid and Andy dolls were nonexistent.
Yeah, you’ve gotta applaud Medicom for trying something different. They even made Janie/Pterodactyl, a large Sarge, and a very nice Rocky. When Thinkway was posed with the question of making human characters, they assumed they had to be full-sized (were they joking?).
Well, I don’t like TWT. I’m buying as few collection items as I can because Jessie is terrible and I have Buzz. Maybe they should take some classes from Mattel, the real toy makers…

And they are all incredibly hard to find. I’ve been searching for Rocky for years now
Searching is your best bet. I’d check a couple flea markets before I shell out the $350 on eBay.
Howdy gang.
Finally have some new pics to share.
These are my versions of Sid’s toys. As I have said before, I wasn’t going for screen accuracy so much, I just wanted the right feel…and I think I acheived it.
Here is the start of the other two: This is the doll head I am going to join with the erector set for Baby Face (I know it is far from screen accurate, but I think it is gonna be fine. And this is the guy riding in Rockmobile…have to paint the light green parts on his face.
I have wanted make my GAMs carry a baby monitor for a long time, but the only ones I have ever found sold for more money than I was willing to spend. Then I found this pink Cabbage Patch Kids baby monitor, which I knew I could paint to be the right color. (That is why there is a head of cabbage sculpted into it.)
I have long wanted to have a “Welcome Home Andy” pic…and I finally made it.
And finally, the current group shot. Sid’s toys live in a different room, just for space reasons…so they will not be in the group shots until I clear out the Simpsons stuff, and redo the shelving to get my TS stuff off of the floor…will be a couple of months still.
you … are … GOD!
(Toy Story God anyway.)
By not aiming for screen accuracy entirely, you just made everything look creepier, which is awesome! Terrific work. I can’t wait to see everything all together in a few months.
wow wampar. once again youve managed to leave me in awww. they look terrific. legs might be my favorite. are ypu going to do janie, pterodactyl, the red truck, or the sandbox doll? Im sure you could do a pizza planet alien easy with one of those target one packs. again man great job.

Definitely Janie…most likely the sandbox doll (will just use the same pattern as Janie.)…definitely not the truck because it is just too big, and not the Alien because I want to limit the collection to Andy’s three Aliens. The Pterodactyl I will make, but it is not going to be near screen accurate at all. I am going to purchase a Pterodactyl toy I have seen a couple of times and give it a paint job.
And thanks.
Hey, is this Rocky in scale/ near to scale (like an inch off)?
Not even remotely close.
