The plastic skeleton/terminator claw Tommy has?


I've been looking to buy or at least find out what these things are called. The internet is void of any information on them. Its the plastic claw that Chris Farley has on his arm when he gets his new office, when he is doing the Darth Vader impression. Like I said, I've been looking for any information on what the hell those things are called or where I can buy one. Sounds weird I know... but thanks.

OMG my brother had one of those when we were way young, and I know it was from the Terminator, but I've been looking online and can't find anything. I really can't figure out how to put it in the search engine, though...

I don't remember what they were called either, but I remember having one back in the 90s when I was young. I am pretty sure I got mine at KB Toys

I had one of these back in the day. Actually 2 of them. They were sold at KB toys and were about 10-15 dollars. There was the robotic or "terminator" version and there was also a skeleton version. Both had detachable claws that would extend when you closed the fist. They were pretty rare and hard to find, I remember calling around toy stores looking for one when I was probably 11 years old.

You can check places like ebay or Amazon. It always cracks me up when he uses the claw to give David Spade the finger.

Yeah I remember those, they weren't uncommon in the mid 90s when this movie was released, I used to see them at KB Toys down at the mall as a kid all the time.
