Alien Themed Products & Businesses
Do cats like the classic western image of aliens? Or are most cat owners into SciFi themes? These are the kinds of products people tell us about (and sometimes give us) all the time…
Roswell Cradle Cat Tree
www.catsplay.com/tc31.php3
Roswell Pet Staircase
www.catsplay.com/st03.php3
Back in the August and September 2005 issues of the eNewsletter we included reference to the proposed, suitably sci-fi dome-shaped, “Earth Station Roswell” project in New Mexico as well as the dome-shaped Star Trek-esque, Starship Pegasus, located on IH-35 north of Austin. Now the Starship is “For Sale”…
Here are some past examples of UFO and Alien themed products that have actually been given to us:
Baby Bighead post-it notes from a child’s alien school pack with alien head eraser and paper-clips as well as other stickers: including alien head and body.
- Glow in the Dark Alien Invaders, Alien HackySacks, Third Eye Alien Key Chain, alien/ufo balloons
- Alien Head Bank, Salt-n-Pepper shakers, Drink holder, Wind-Up Alien Egg
- Roswell Alien action figure, misc. alien figures
- UFO Files action figures from China (with Global UFO map) and wind-up UFO toy with hovering ball action made in China
- Roswell 50th Anniversary cookies, alien glow-pops, chocolate invasion force candy and spooky Halloween themed grey aliens.
