Question: Is this human-sized bipedal silhouette on the side of SpaceX Starhopper an identifiable SFF character?
In 2012 SpaceX put a human-sized figure on its Grasshopper rocket but in 2019 this figure on the Starhopper rocket has a distinctly non-human shape. Knowing Musk's sense of humor and tendency to reference SF in naming one-off crafts (usually the ocean ships) I thought this might be an SF reference as well.
This comment under my related but different question What does this humanoid silhouette on SpaceX's Starhopper represent? (we're hoping it's not a "kill marking") shows an image (cropped below) that makes it clear the figure is human sized, but it looks more like an action figure to me.
