Brian says these will NOT be sold in the USA... but guess who has them? That's right... Freddy Funko! Watch for your opportunity to win.

There is one missing. He looks like a Lucha Duck. He's awesome looking, at least proto-wise. I need the rest. Did I mention how handsome Freddy is? :)

Very cool, strange little critters. Don't mind them at all.
I notice the "Doala".
In the late 80's Australia was a huge tourist destination for Japanese travelers and they were very fascinated with our native Koala (Bear?).
Maybe there is a "Dangaroo" baseball team in Japan also !? :-k

I'm quite certain I read somewhere that there was going to be the 5 of them in total.

My daughters got a couple of these at Fundays (from Jason, I think - thanks Jason! - it's all a blur). They are absolutely too cute - and now the girls want the rest of them.
