Just found this bad boy, fits perfectly into my collection! I have been looking for a red one, now I just need a blue one ,a green one, and a pink one. One thing I found interesting and personally had never seen or knew about was the price tag on the bottom that calls it "KING KOIN" therfore making it an official king kong bootleg. Anything I had found before speculated that it was, (obviously) but marketed as possibly just a "gorilla" bank to keep from infringment, but still cashing in on the kong market. the tag Made it especially cool to me, plus being the rarer red color.      Ebay purchase buy it now for $24.99! it was listed for about 2 minutes before i saw it and pounced! man Ive been lucky lately!

i love the wild look of these renzi banks, very carnal.

this is the first time ive seen one with the tag stating its name "KING KOIN" as it was marketed. and only .88 cents!!

And here he is with his fellow blowmold kong banks.
Mirabile dictu,don't you agree?

Really cool effect with the reflection of the flame off of the bank. Think you could get one to come out with the overhead off?

Also, thank you Frankenstein73 for the photos. I do enjoy seeing old labels and have never know of an Renzi example like this one. Another kudos to you and your Kongs!  ;D
