Original Toronto Star caption: Out-of-this-world creatures like new 18-inch long Tearron and Super Joe doll are typical of the new trend to space-age toys for children influenced by movies such as Star Wars and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The prehistoric monster has a lizard-like crawl and rotating head and will sell for about $20. Toy companies are already previewing their new lines which they hope will be the big sellers for next Christmas.
