i think that is a bunyip toy from the Yowie chocolates series. They were a series of chocolates in the style of kinder suprises that had toy Bunyips (Australian aboriginal billabong spirits) inside the chocolate which was also shaped like a bunyip some of the toys were snap together animals and other australian themed creatures. If you are australian then its a pretty good chance this is what it is because the yowie chocolates were only sold here if i am not mistaken.

This is actually one of satan's toys. He was playing in your basement and forgot it there.

Thanks for all the comments on this... I did a quick image search, and it's definitely a "NAP" Bunyip toy from Yowie. Yay!

Possibly an imp from the Disney movie Hercules?

It seems to be talking to an imaginary friend.

I'm guessing you also got it from a Happy Meal or a kids meal from some place if you don't remember. Those were always fun.

I can affirm that it was made in China.

Its one of the Bunyips if I remember correctly. There was a whole series of books too.
It looks like a cross between Dug and Stitch.
I can confirm this is a bunyip, in sanatised (sanatized) toy form.
As opposed to satanised form... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunyip
satanized?
zatanised.
Ahem sanitised (sanitized in AmEng.)
