We've all seen the iconic green Google Android, but now there is the Chinese New Year Google Android. The shape of this toy resembles that of the classic Google Android, but everything else is different.

The Chinese New Year Google Android is in the character of Cai Shen, who is the god of wealth and richness in Chinese stories. However, this little toy might be hard to find around the world, since it is made exclusively for China and Taiwan.
