 Re: "cute " vinyls
^^^ I had a quick look . . . . they are from a show called 'Monica's Gang' (Turma da Mônica in Portuguese) a Brazilian comic book series. Mauricio is the name of the series creator. Pretty sure the toys are made in Brazil too . . . . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monica%27s_Gang

 Re: "cute " vinyls
Anyone know who made these? They have Japan stamped on one foot with another stamp that looks like a cat . . . . . the only info i have is they are called 'Woodland Dolls' and are made by one person in Japan. Japanese Kewpie by The Moog Image Dump, on Flickr

 Re: "cute " vinyls
They are pretty cool. I am tempted to order some too, but had to ask about the shipping first - I have a feeling I am going to get ripped on stuff coming from the UK, in addition to the brutal conversion.

 Re: "cute " vinyls
 Maybe someone here can help. I think this is the mascot for the nomura company, but i might also be wrong. That happens a lot to me. I know i have seen this face many times before.

 Re: "cute " vinyls
Jim, I'm pretty sure it is the Indian mascot for Ciscorn, a corn flake cereal made by the Cisco food company.  Even though he does not look just like my pic, they gave him many different looks. Sometimes young and sometimes old. A really nice toy!
