Title: Keekaboo/Cheekaboo (Monchichi)

I had a little monkey (semi) soft toy that I called Cheekaboo. I remember it fell in a stream/small river when I was little and I was so upset that my Dad had to wade down the river after it to get it back.

It lost a hand at some point. :huh:

Last year when I was still living in Hong Kong I couldn't believe it when I found Cheekaboos in a toy shop window. I'd found small phone/key chain things when I'd lived in Taiwan but I didn't think that they could be the same monkey (not a sentence I ever thought I'd type - "I didn't think that they could be the same monkey" ). Turns out that he's from Japan and his name is Monchichi (not the same as the Sanrio monkey Monkichi)- who knows if that's what I had but I suppose it must have been.

Name rings a bell but the pics on google for them don't
