Toy Story Alien Glitter Plastic Snow Globe - Green & Clear

This little plastic snow globe holds the three-eyed alien from Toy Story, standing with his arms stretched wide and his single antenna pointing up inside a clear globe. He wears a pale blue top with a lilac collar, and the globe around him is filled with fine green glitter and tiny green stars that settle about his feet. Give it a gentle shake and the glitter swirls up around him before drifting slowly back down. The globe sits on a tapered green base printed all the way round with rows of little alien faces and ringed planets, with ALIEN written in white lettering across the front.

At 8.6cm tall, 6.5cm wide and 6.5cm deep, it is a compact piece that fits easily on a desk, a bedside table, a bookshelf or a windowsill without taking over the space. The green base and clear globe bring a cheerful splash of colour to a shelf of keepsakes, and it adds a fun touch to a festive mantelpiece or a Christmas display. We think it makes a thoughtful Christmas gift, small enough to tuck into a stocking or set beside a wrapped present, and a happy reminder of a favourite film all year round.

The snow globe is made from plastic, with the alien figure set inside the clear globe and the base printed with its pattern of alien faces and planets on every side, so it looks good from every angle. It stands on its own flat base, so it needs no hanging or fixing and moves easily from room to room. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth, wipe the base with a damp cloth, and keep it on a steady surface where it is unlikely to be knocked. For a gift, wrap it in green tissue to match the base and add a handwritten card.
