It is Tsuburaya Communications. Later they changed their name in 2003 to Yamanaya.

Damn, that is a nice one. I was after the one Ricky had for sale eons ago. What a find! Congratulations on a keen eye and your luck Greg. :) They also issued him in gold, and I think maybe another colour, but can't remember for certain on that.

It says "Not for sale" on the bottom, so this may have been a promotional or internal gift only of some sort.

These were a "gift" if you bought a certain figure at an event years ago, I didnt get it then as I didnt want to spend $60 on a toy I didnt want just for the mini. But, I got lucky a few years ago and walked into Mandarake and they had a few of each color so I was pretty happy to say the least. That is one of my favorite all time toys, so small and so cute and it rules.

My cat is happy too.

I think that is by Bandai? Mine is also a larger version but by Tsuburaya Communications as well and more "cartoony"

Now I also need one of the minis :lol:

The big one was also made in a heat activated color change vinyl, it would go from brown to orange. I still need the two regular colors, I used to see them all the time but theyve dried up recently.
