Buy yourself an old snoopy dog, throw a skull on it and there you go...

I believe those were sold at Ben Franklin stores, for around a dollar...

Yup, its mostly a Snoopy body, but the arms are different, and there is no tail. The head is a rubber skull dangler, and the exact same one used was on ebay recently, but it went higher than i wanted to pay. Thanks for all the info Wing clipper, i had no idea.

This was the toy that got me into Japanese vinyl. I had a friend give me one as I had been collecting monster stuff from flea markets. I had another friend who collected obake dogs and about flipped when he saw I had one. We ended up trading several of his toys for the phantom. I will say it looks great posted up with his obake dogs. I dream of running across another one.
