Homies collectable figurines. Collection of 10

Homies are a series of 2-inch figurines loosely based upon Chicano (Mexican American) characters in the life of artist David Gonzales. First created in 1998, these plastic figurines were initially sold via vending machines typically positioned in supermarkets, mainly in International marts. Homies have become a highly collectible item among fans of the line. Many imitation toys have hit the market following the success of Homies.
Gonzales then created a story for each of the Homies' characters, each of which had a positive view of the characters. By 2005, the Homies character line had women, as well as Filipino, Japanese and Puerto Rican, and even Evil Clown characters. The Puerto Ricans set, which includes twelve of the Homies, are nicknamed Los Boricuas. According to Gonzales, he has received orders from countries in Europe, South America and Africa requesting characters representing people from those continents.
In 2004, the creators of Homies, created 'Los Mijos' intended for a younger audience. They are solely Hispanic and are portrayed as kids, babies, and teens.
In 2007, a show was made about the figures called The Homies Hip Hop Show.
