Man I have been trying to track down an agent syaraku since they first came out. I could've guessed that they had trouble standing. But they're not sofubi, what a bummer! Also, searching for info on these guys is difficult because "purple toys" is so friggin ambiguous. Wonder if nutti Patti is sofubi? Anyone?

That guy is manufactured by Unbox, and I believe they do Japanese style vinyl but are produced in China. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong on that.

The peanut seems slush casted just like Japanese vinyl. Plenty of Chinese factories have slush casting machines and the quality and vinyl is pretty much undistinguishable from Japanese vinyl. You guys would probably be surprised by what Japanese toy companies have things manufactured in China without anyone noticing.

Yeah I didn't mean to sound derogatory by saying "China made". I saw a cheestroyer pic the other day (maybe here?), clear vinyl, and the vinyl looked stunning.
