Post Toy ID help
My buddy just dropped this little guy off at my desk. He was digging through stuff at his parent's house this weekend, and found this cool little Goji.

Any clue as to where he might be from?

Thanks guys!

Actually, the first thing I asked my buddy when he gave me this was, "Did you get this in Mexico?" :D

Thanks Michael!

That was a really cool write-up, and the names were great. I too love these guys for their complete wonk factor. I think I might just have to start hunting for a cheap set.
