Motorbot's They Live figures will force you to obey

Have you ever seen the 1988 cinematic masterpiece, They Live ? if not, go watch it now. It's the only movie I can think of that contains not only magic sunglasses and mind control, but also the incomparable Rowdy Roddy Piper. Seriously, the movie combines equal parts social satire, science fiction, and 80's-style cheesy action into something that is much great than the sum of it's parts. 

Well, it seems the talented Motorbot is also a fan and has created a few of the film's aliens for an upcoming show at Gallery 1988. These little guys capture all the ghoulish charm of their big screen counterparts, but are much less likely to try to enslave the human race. Hopefully.

If you'd like a "formaldehyde face" of your own, contact Motorbot here. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to go beat my friend senseless until he will try on my sunglasses.
