Hello~ just an update, I talked to the user and I'm going to hold the other figures for him still. If you don't mind some being Auldey Tomy figures, I may have a couple more you need assuming the lid t is the missing figures. :)

I know offhand both are official, I just think Auldey partnered with TOMY in order to bring the figures to America-at least that's what I'm assuming.
I'll start looking through my figures and get back to ya with an updated list. :)

I don't much much about TOMY but any Audley TOMY i've had came in packaging covered with Chinese XD Not sure if Audley assisted in American releases of TOMY but I do know they were sold in China. I think they are relatively the same aside from packaging, but don't quote me~

Hm, that would make sense. Otherwise I've seen very minimal paint job differences in them. *shrug*

Auldey is, what I am lead to believe, the Chinese toy manufacturer and distrubutor of the first run of Tomy figures (and yes, they are in Chinese, not Japanese). Then, some companies bought and took over and made them CGTSJ (Creatures, Gamefreak, TV Tokyo, Sho Pro, Jr Kikaku) and released them in Japan and America (the figures from both are identical from what I've seen). The newer packaging and paint confirms that for me, but I'm still confused, because even though Auldeys do not have CGTSJ on the figures themselves, it is on the packaging, every single one that I have. Can't find any years on ANY of the Japanese Tomy's packaging I have to compare. So odd that Auldey's all have a year (ex: 1998) but not the Japanese release... All Tomy's are made in China though ( ... )

Eh, I don't know, This is what I've been told and what I've read, but I just found a Venusaur with Japanese on it from 1995, that only has Nintendo, Creatures, and Gamefreak on it, none of the others. That'd lead me to believe this is earlier than Auldey? o.o Or maybe I only have newer Auldeys? Eh, who knows...

yeah I guess it doesnt matter remember back in those days they didnt rlly care i mean i can tell by the quality on the paint and the actual figures and as a company that would manufactor so many figures im sure some ended up with actual tags (C) CGJ or whatever because its just too many not all of them are going to be perfect and some might even had little details missing etc /; now the ones that came later... those will always be better quality like if you compara a tomy figure from2013-2014 its so vivid the colors i mean... and the quality is WOW!

And there all tomy or Audley? Are they in good condition? What would be the prices and shipping? Let me know :)

It's a mix of both TOMY & Audley ones- the Lickitung is from the American release.
I can get a price sheet to you in a day or two if that's alright.
