I think it was Toybox DX's first Toy of the Year:

The company that made it was called Hobby Project, and they are long gone. If you're buying one of these, watch out, they were bootlegged by someone in Hong Kong. I don't know of the exact differences but you might be able to find answers on the Toybox DX BBS.

There aren't that many Boss toys, but Popy did make a small vinyl of it, and there was an excellent Soul of Chogokin toy, too:

Roger, do you remember there being a clear version and I think a black on e too? I forgot about the boots!

$85 is a good price. If Mandarake is selling it, it's highly unlikely it's a bootleg. I say go for it, but just be forewarned it's status as a "garage toy" leaves it with some minor issues like being a little wobbly.

Hobby Project did do that black one, and the clear/bare metal one, they both looked really cool. I don't know if the black and clear ones were bootlegged, too.
