Item Description
2.5x2.5" and about .5" thick with highly embossed details. A tan cord comes out at the bottom and when this is pulled the eyeballs rotate rapidly in opposite directions for a rather bizarre effect. Back of the piece has two sharply pointed 1-3/8" metal prongs so the piece can be worn. The black metal reverse is stamped "Made In Germany." Tiny paint loss off the figure's one yellow earring but overall paint remains Exc. and glossy. There was a small find of these several decades ago but they have long been absorbed by collectors and are seldom seen nowadays. Great action and great condition.
