Elkridge, MD (April 28, 2005) - One of the most beloved characters from Nickelodeon's cult hit Invader ZIM, is ZIM's lovably simple robot sidekick, GIR. While the rest of the Irken invaders are given SIR units - robots whose function is to assist in invasions - Zim is given a GIR unit, made from spare parts and loose change. GIR, of course, proves to be less than useful to Zim's "conquest" of Earth, where GIR "blends in" with his green doggy suit and spends most of his time watching television.

Palisades Toys celebrates all things GIR with the release of the ultimate GIR collectible - MEGA GIR!! MEGA GIR stands roughly 12 inches tall from his feet to the top of his antenna. And, as an added bonus, he comes complete with a removable plush doggie suit, so that you can display him in his Irken robot mode, or in his "doggie disguise" mode.

MEGA GIR will be released this fall, and will have an SRP of $29.99 each. For more information, please visit www.Palisadestoys.com.
