If you can tell me what this is, I will send you all of the royalties I receive in April for the various poems, short stories, and songs I've written over the years. Heh. If get it exactly right, I'll throw in the royalties I've received from the academic publications I have in AERJ, JPSP, and other allegedly "academic" publications.

I think I know what it is but don't know what it's called. It's one of those sticky/stretchy men made out of a sticky gel like material that you throw at the wall or ceiling and it sticks there. I think you get them in those gum ball type machines with the toys in clear plastic domes.

@TheHorse Ohh so its a ninja i thought its spiderman wearing black outfit or batman without his cape. Would it help them stick on the wall if you apply glue to their suction cups?

It looks to me like a guy climbing up a building wall using suction cups on his hands and feet @TheHorse . Or someone could have stuck a toy man with suction cups on a ceiling in a room.

It is a small plastic toy with suction cups on the four extremities, stuck on a wall. I know, the royalties you mentioned add up to zip, right?

@TheHorse Thanks. Any time people think they can do something themselves (although they do not, and could not really), they undervalue it. Sad.

Is it one of those gel toys that you can stretch and if you throw it at the wall it sticks? This one looks like a soldier of some type.

@TheHorse My students sometimes bring those type of toys to school with them, and these are 6th and 7th graders. I had one stuck to the ceiling in my old classroom for several years because I told the boy to stop playing with it and he didn't. When it stuck to the ceiling I wouldn't call the janitor to come get it down. That boy went on to earn a degree in Mechanical Engineering.
