If you're talking the 5 on the right side, they are all different facial expressions of Tony Tony Chopper from One Piece

Reminds me GIRLDC's work too! Definitely not from them though! I can appreciate how nice the artisans look but wouldn't ever rock them due to functionality.

Are they all Row 4 1x1 keys?

My 10 year old already thinks my KB is the coolest ever bc of my GirlDC trooper. If I got a Jesse and a Space Ranger that would seal it for my younger two as well!

Looks like the toy story ones are made from lego pieces

Looks exactly like these bootlegs. Either the same company or a modified version of them.

Those stormtroopers seem to be from LEGO minifigs as well.

It seems like these are kind of made the same way as Lego keycaps, or how I assume Lego keycaps are made. They take a stem from a donor keycap, and stick it under the toy. I have tried making my own Lego caps with some success, but not well enough to actually sell since the stem looks horrid if anyone ever decides to flip it over and take a look.

I assume that they created a base/stem combo, that has a male lego mini fig piece on top. At least thats how I would do it.

Someone should put one up on shapeways, it would be easy to make and customize for different/boards sets. Joker lego for troubled minds, spaceman head for classic space, pilot helmet for danger zone, etc.
