Congratulations on that Mewtwo! What a neat little figure; he looks so tall.

As far as the Entei thinkchip; this awesome collection has one, if you need proof that they exist/haven't seen this one before! From the description it does sound like they are few and far between.
Best of luck in finding the rest of the figures on your list!

Thank you! Yup, he's got an interesting appearance. Only two other figures are taller, Blaziken and T-Tar I believe.

So I think the Entei in that collection is actually from the 2005 Battle Stadium game and not the Virtual V figure line. I'm going to message that collector to see if I can confirm by looking at it's underside... but the high level of detail, a previous post of someone who saw him on display years ago, and it's entry in another collection makes me feel he's not the one I'm looking for. But yea, these last few are going to be tough! Same to you on your quest :D

They also have that one listed as a Battle Stadium figure here:

But I've messaged the collector, hopefully he'll confirm one way or another

That's interesting! I'm not sure if she's still around LJ these days but hopefully you'll get a response.

Thanks!! I made contact with a Pokémon collector in South Florida and traded her a bunch of TOMY figures for it. Still have a ton left... in the process of getting permission to trade here, see if lightning could strike twice :]

:D Thank you so much!!! Yup so, thanks to information from Dundino and others, it seems Mewtwo was a prize you could get after making a submission. I'm very happy he's joined the rest of my squad as well. Appreciate the luck and love, same to you friend :) Hope you and yours have been doing well with everything going on
