I was hesitant to list this because the timeline and other details were unclear, but I've been able to make a general assessment, so I'm listing it now. It seems that Kaiyodo released this before the candy toy series "Alice in Figureland" that followed. According to the mini-book, it was sold as "alice's adventures in figureland" with a total of 18 figures. This was part of my late husband's collection, and I had difficulty organizing it myself, but I finally managed to do so after studying it. It's a collector's item and has never been displayed. However, it's been over 20 years since it was made, so it's a used item. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about minor details, as it has been stored at home by a non-professional. I will respond promptly to any questions.
