  • In 1989, ex-plumber Winston Blunt finds a sphere that’s one of six fallen from the sky. Winston soon patents a new method of bonding carbon atoms and sets up Galaxy Plastics Inc Before shooting himself, he appoints a Mr Dolman to run the company. When industrial spy Max Fisher breaks into the factory, he is attacked by plastic action figures before being caught by Dolman and the Nestene Intelligence. Max throws a spanner that damages the Nestene tank and causes an explosion, but Max is pursued by the remains of the Dolman Auton. Having survived a car accident whilst fighting miniature dolls, Max is killed by Dolman. However, in August 1990, one Max Fischer invests money in a plastics factory and leaves behind flowers on a shallow grave (that of the real Max Fischer) hidden in the grounds — plastic flowers of course!
