Ah I see it on amazon & it says its based on a manga. But the cheapest is like $50, why so expensive - it's just a wind-up toy isn't it?

yeah it's a character from an anime/manga 'Yotsuba&!'
while i haven't seen it myself, the character just looks cool, which draws people, plus it's a cool figure to photograph.
it's expensive cause it has lighting in it's eyes, it's rotating body parts are good quality compared to what you would find in dolls and stuff, it's also branding of the cartoon, plus it's a japanese figure, which normally cost a lot.
also i got him from ebay, for $30 odd US, with $10-15 shipping cost.

it is quite expensive regardless, but like you said, he's very photogenic, and if you're into photography enough i believe it's a good investment.
also thanks.

I've seen photos of this guy before. How did this thing start? Where did you get him, btw?
