Bad news... I can't find my eBay images anywhere. I may have lost them in a harddrive crash 6-7 years ago. Damn.
Some of the more unusual items i had included an ALF WindSock, ALF arm-floaters, all 8 issues of the ALF Magazine (I worked at a bookstore at the time and made sure we received them), several issues of The Extra Terrestrial Times (I joined the fan club in '87), several other magazines with ALF on the cover (I think 3 of them were TV Guides), a latex & fur full-face mask (the kind you pull over your head) and a set of 4 giant coloring books (they were about 3 foot tall and had heavy cardboard covers). I also had the sheet/comforter set and I may still have the comforter in a box in my garage (I don't remember selling it). I actually bought 2 sets of fitted sheets... one to use and one to keep (of course the "to use" set got used up after several years ^_^)
I was really hoping that I could find all the pictures I took when I sold my ALF collection on eBay... oh well. There's still a slight chance that I'd burned my picture directory to CD, but I doubt it. When I get a chance I'll look through the oldest of my CDs and see if I can find anything. *heavy sigh*

May I ask why you sold off all your cool ALF merchandise?

It was a compromise... when I met my future wife and we first moved in together I had too much stuff. Oodles and oodles of comic books, VHS videos, LaserDiscs, LPs, collectables, etc. I had to get rid of some of it. I sold off the ALF collection as well as my Cutey Honey collection and my Betty Boop collection (which was even more immense) as well as 3500+ comics (all manga and anthropomorphic, I have no superhero). I still have 1500+ Comics, 1000+ VHS, 350+ LaserDiscs, 350+ LPs and collectively my wife and I have 500+ CDs.
Something had to go, and since my collectibles just sat inside boxes they were the prime candidates (believe me... I'd have needed a whole house just to be able to display all of that stuff. Of course, that was my original plan until I met my wife. Marriage will do that to a guy. ^_^)
No regrets, really. We bought a little house about 5 years ago and there still would be no place to display any of my collectibles... if I still had them, they'd just be sitting in boxes and no one would be enjoying them. I'd like to think that only a true ALF Fan would bother to bid on an ALF WindSock on eBay, so they've probably found a better home than I could have given them. I just wish I still had the pictures I took for all of the auctions... it'd be great to display them one last time.

Mark, I noticed today that your site does not work without the www at the beginning. Just wanted to make you aware of that.

Sorry guys, I took the site down it was costing more and more to host it each year and with no new ALF news or products I said all I had to say with it really. Im still a massive ALF fan and would love to see the character return but the promise of a film or return to tv looks less likely with each year. I still live in hope that Netflix's will team up with Paul Fusco in the not too distant future. :D :D :D

Good news! Bring Back ALF is now on Instagram. Over the last year I have had a fair amount of emails asking when my site was going back online.
Its designed with Apples iWeb which is now an old piece of software so I thought the best thing to do is put the content on Instagram and add new content as I go. If you want to see my ALF stuff please follow me at bringbackalf

Enjoy!

Mark :)
