The fact that the last "Hell Pikachu" toy actually makes Pikachu puts it well-above many bootlegs in terms of qaulity.

I'm most fascinated with the light-up spinning top of Pikachu. The short-but-elaborate light show it makes is pretty fun to watch. Smile

Bootleg things are so famous in Japan. We get bootleg version of Saber named as Sader.

I couldn't stop laughig the whole time! That weirdmusic they made for it really sells it.

(I actually have a few bootleg Pokémon stuff around the house. Comes with the territory when I have relatives who live near where bootleg merchandise is made.)
