Fanhome, purveyor of subscription-based collections and models, brings something special and unique to New York Comic Con 2023, as they announce a special display of their E.T. The Extra Terrestrial build-up model, inspired by the titular character from the Oscar winning 1982 Steven Spielberg film.
This officially licensed Fanhome E.T. The Extra Terrestrial is the ultimate tribute to the beloved character featured in the award winning 1982 film from Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment.

Standing at 25” tall and depicted with lifelike realism, Fanhome’s E.T. The Extra Terrestrial was designed with the guidance of the family of Carlo Rambaldi, the talented Italian designer who brought the original character to life for the film. Composed of meticulously detailed metal and ABS plastic parts, construction is easy with step-by-step instructions that feature simple to follow diagrams that guide assembly and all tools are provided to enjoy and complete assembly.
The completed figure features articulated arms and an extendable head, just like in the movie. LED capabilities include a light-up index finger and “heart light” that add to E.T.’s realistic appearance, along with moveable eyes and facial expressions.
The friendly face and big eyes are among the main endearing features of E.T., and this replica retains the tender look that has delighted generations of fans. Audio features also recreate several of E.T.’s memorable quotes from the film, adding to the realism. These functions may be activated using touchless sensors embedded in the model or with a remote control. The sensors are a technological advancement for Fanhome models and enhance the sensory experience when the model is completed.
