Brilliant! Thanks for adding this. :) My youngest has been dabbling in stop motion, and we've been going down the rabbit hole of stuff I remember from the old times.

Holy shit, I remember seeing this in like 1989 on VHS at a friend's house. Forgotten memory, but seeing this image immediately brought it back wow!

I'm a huge fan of the movie and the creator (if my profile pic wasn't already evidence).

A couple quick 3d printed badges I made from the logo:

And somewhere I've got the soundtrack signed by him in his super tiny handwriting.

I absolutely adore your profile pic - I've seen it around and it always makes me giggle.

So jelly about the soundtrack! I had a VHS - but it's long gone. (I did shoot the machine that chewed it up, don't worry!)

There's somebody very menacing about that outfit with that smile.
