A self-contained Slamfist (Christopher Guest) animatronic puppet from Joe Dante's Small Soldiers. An enforcer for the Gorgonites, when Slamfist was activated, he revealed his quiet, gentle nature by protecting Archer (Frank Langella). Slamfist had the third most screen-time after Archer and enemy Chip Hazard (Tommy Lee Jones).

While production initially planned to use puppets created by Stan Winston, it was discovered that it was more time- and cost-effective to use computer-generated imagery, leaving the film to be "one third puppetry" while the remaining two thirds were CGI.

Created by Stan Winston, this wireless animatronic puppet features highly detailed features including a silicone face, resin body, soft rubber hand, articulating joints, and self-contained interior mechanics in the torso. The bottom right foot underside is hand-marked "R." This lot exhibits chipped paint and discoloration. Dimensions: 12.5" x 7.5" x 9.5" (31.75 cm x 19 cm x 24.25 cm)

Contains electronic and mechanical components; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.
