I came across these cute vinyl toys the other day and fell over in joy. I'm not much of a collector of toys, but these truly take me back to my childhood with familiar characters like 'Chapulin Colorado', 'Cepillin', and the Mexican heart-throb 'Luis Miguel'. These probably speak most to a Mexican/Latin American audience, but they also produce characterizations of Bruce Lee, Gene Simmons, and John Lennon.

'Cantinflas' is another popular character produced by Corinthian Latinoamerica.

Now this figure of Luis Miguel is my favorite, gap-tooth and all!! :)
