Ok so here's a little history on this hilarious Kubrick set. Predecessor to South Park's Mr. Hanky, our friend Dr. Shit was a popular character on the Japanese children's show, Wego Wego Ruga. Yes, thats right, he's a piece of poop in the can. However, the TV program was not called "wego wego ruga", but "ugo ugo ruga", which was an anagram gou gou garu (go go girl)". The TV show looked like it was for children. But clearly was intended for adults.
Anyway, this vinyl figure is Shuru-kun, another odd character from this odd television show. Shuru-kun stands about 9" tall.
