Pocket Monster "Monster Collection" Raichu Tomy Figures

Japan 1997~ (also officially released in China, Korea and others!)
Takara Tomy

​​

The original Raichu figure, probably the first ever made, are these Monster Collection Raichu.

​

Over the years they have continued making these, and their tummy paintjobs change each  time, some with so much white it goes to their mouth, some with a little white on the bottom, some with no white, and the newer original molds have a very defined white tummy patch and a very orange color.

Until the new mold arrived for Diamond and Pearl era! In January 2010 Takara Tomy released Raichu's first ever FULL remake Tomy figure - 12 years after his original one had first come out!! His eyes are bigger, he's sitting upright, his head is bigger and rounder but... let's face it... he still has his big ol' adorable pawses!! Some things never change!
