So, my gifter read correctly that I like Chocobos. They are one of the most enduring characters in the Final Fantasy games for a reason.

I was set this Chocobo bank. My gifter mentioned that these are hard to find because they have since been discontinued in Japan. But my gifter managed to find one and sent it to me!

It's fantastic!

Here's a few photos of the Chocobo, including the packaging (I cannot read Japanese so I have no idea what it says but I presume one of the words must be Chocobo). I also shot the front and back of the Chocobo so you can see it is indeed a bank - you can stick coins in the back of his head. And lastly, I added him to my toy army at work. My desk toys are on the left, my coworker's are on the right. I think I'm winning.

Thank you again for the Chocobo! It's awesome!
