So, I bought this thing in a lot of Ultraman toys off of ebay, and the guy I bought it from had no idea what it was. I have searched all over the internet for this and found nothing. It says "Marmit 2001" on the bottom of the figure.

Any help on ID'ing this figure would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone have any idea what this is?

Cool find. That is a Para Baby figure from the series of Masked Ninja Akakage/Red Shadow (仮面の忍者 赤影) line. The character itself is called Babiran (ばびらん), and was from the 49th episode of the television series, "Erosion of Flesh Eating Plant" (?).

Here is a shot of the packaged toy from the PB two-pack, and some screenshots of the creature on the show.

Cool. Just like that, my question is answered, and I couldn't even find this guy on websites dedicated to vinyl kaiju! Thanks for your help!

Do you know the name of the other figure in the two pack?

He came packaged with Jijigora (じじごら).

Just when you think you've seen every Para Baby another one pops up. :)
