Thank you Cody!
As a part of the Robo-Chi Pets line, Tiger sold mini robot dog and cat figures as "Palm Pals". What's weird is that the robot dog's design had been used for other generic toys. It seems to have been reused for sharpeners, and a silver version of the toy was resold by another company, apparently, with a different name in Japan (lost the link for now to the article mentioning it). Not to mention, the Palm Pals figures are not easy to find. I just find it weird Tiger would go selling something generic.
