Do any other olds remember Land of the Lost? Sleestak maybe came from Peru.

Land of the Lost was one of my favorites as a kid. Some quality scifi elements, and some of the writers were sci fi greats. Larry Niven comes to mind.
But this is cool, although this statue may have been partly inspired by LotL, even if the mythology is ancient.
Even as a kid I was kind of horrified by how low quality the production and acting was, but still...that show had tons of super cool stuff going on in it. The world building and extreme sci-fi weirdness made the experience worth it. It deserves a high quality remake some day (as opposed to a silly movie like the one released a few years ago), kind of like the 'Battlestar Galactica' treatment. Try to keep/bring back every weird neat idea, but do it with a really big budget by a production team that doesn't hate what made the original really cool, and take the material seriously. Bits of humor would be fine, but there is no good reason to make fun of itself all the time.
I loved Land of the Lost. Also live action Batman, Rocky and Bulwinkle and Mr. Peabody, a japanese robot transformers type show with characters named Goldar and Silvar, and more. Also Schoolhouse Rock
