Charmeleon ~Mystery~
I don't know anything about this guy except for the fact that he has "Nintendo" stamped on his back. He doesn't have a hole on his head, so I know he isn't a keychain or anything like that. I got him with some other legit Japanese Pokemon figures, so I don't think he's a bootleg, but maybe? Please let me know if you know anything about this figure!
In any case, I really like this figure because if its pose and facial structure!

Baseless Charmeleon Pokedex Figure
Year: 2005? (Please let me know if you know the year this figure released!)
Company: Bandai
Country of origin: Japan
Where I bought it: PKMNCollectors LJ
Comments: Just like with Charmander, I bought this figure when it was cheap so I could have it in my collection while I waited for one with a base! I love how dynamic this guy's pose is, but that does make it a little difficult to balance haha.

Where I bought it: eBay
Comments: The belly is a little wonky and the yellow part of the flame is peeling a little, but otherwise the stickers on this one weren't too bad. Check out the Charizard and Charmander figures in this set too!

Comments: This Charmeleon has a bit of paint transfer on its eyebrow from the factory, but I still love it! It's really nice to get a large, detailed Charmeleon figure after it hadn't seen much love in a while.
