Highlights
The reviewer concludes by recommending the entire 2002 Wendy's E.T. collectible set for fans of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, calling it a "complete win."
The first toy is E.T. housed in a VHS cassette tape holder. This solid plastic toy lights up in E.T.'s finger and chest when a button is pressed, after removing a battery pull tab. The cassette holder also features a movie bio and cast information, similar to an actual VHS tape.
Next is an 18-piece, two-sided puzzle. One side features screenshots from the movie, including a picture of E.T. and Elliot flying on a bike, and two pieces shaped like E.T. and his spaceship. The other side of the puzzle glows in the dark, with lighter parts, writing, and the moon illuminating.
The third collectible is E.T.'s spaceship, which doubles as a viewfinder. It has a shiny, silver appearance and features six different screenshots from the movie that can be viewed by clicking a button, which is integrated into the spaceship's landing gear.
Following this is an E.T. calendar. Although outdated, it comes with three sheets of E.T.-themed stickers, including designs for holidays, birthdays, homework, and various E.T. visuals, making them usable on current calendars.
The final item in the set is a highly detailed wind-up walking E.T. minifigure. The reviewer demonstrates its walking action after winding it up, expressing appreciation for its design.
