I had both the Aligator and Jaws games, needless to say my bathtub was home to battling creatures.

That's the first time I've seen Missing Link in decades. I had so many of those goofy puzzles that cashed in on the Rubik craze. I remember having a Pyramid one and one that was a series of trapezoids you could turn into a snake or tons of other shapes.

Awesome! I had the JAWS game and loved it! Also had (still have) the Missing Link puzzle thing!

Your speculation as to the origin of the ALLIGATOR game is correct: it is in fact a tie-in to the movie. I have it, but mine is in the mailer box, so I'd never seen the actual packaging. It's a worthy follow-up to the JAWS game.
