This looks truly happy ... but (AFAIK) it's actually not statue of "real" Buddha, but eccentric Chinese monk named Budai (Jp: Hotei) - in Japan he is one of the seven "deities" (Shichi-fukujin) who are said to bring wealth and long life.

You are of course perfectly correct! I did think about giving the Budai information after I discovered his true identity, but decided against it!
