I won a small chirping bird figurine on eBay and would love to identify the manufacturer or find a way to get similar figures.

I know that this is a knockoff of Takara's Breezy Singers line from the 1990s.

And I also know that there are several other knockoff lines to be found right now (the patents recently expired so the copycats are flooding in).

This bird I won has a unique sculpt to all these others.  No identifying markings whatsoever (even inside the battery compartment), just a generic gold Made in China sticker.

Has anyone seen it anywhere?  Like at a dollar store or craft store?  I basically own all the Takara birds, so these knockoffs are giving my collection a long-overdue second wind.
Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

These are from the retail chain "Dollar Tree", they have a clip on their feet but it can be removed so that they can stand alone. The cardinal is the best sound and sculpting/paint wise but they are all somewhat cute.

The love bird and scarlet macaw make awful noises though,lol. Would you like photos of them out of package? I have the cardinal,blue bird and love bird.

These have motion sensors in them so they chirp if you move near them. No off switch though.

I've never heard of those tomy ones before but they are wonderful! Would love to have some of them myself. I only know tomy for their pokemon merchandise and micropets.

They are all a dollar each in person,and are sold at the store currently.
