Monchichis


The Monchichi franchise is Japanese and held by the Sekiguchi Corporation, a famous doll company, located in Tokyo, Japan. Exportation of the doll line started in North America in 1979, where it was successful. Mattel bought the license for both the toy line and the TV series, localized as Monchichis. As recently as June 2008, Monchichis are still available in the United States in places such as Japan in Disney World's Epcot theme park, and hopefully they we soon be available again at mass. I LOVE LOVE LOVE these little guys. It reminds me of being a kid. :)
