	: This toy was actually released in [[Hasbro]]'s ''Battle Beasts'' line as part of the "Shadow Warriors" series, but they saw ''extremely'' limited distribution, largely hitting clearance chains in the US, plus limited releases in parts of Europe. As such, it generally goes for a bit less than the later Laser Beasts that were only released in Japan, but not a ''lot'' less. There is a minor variant to the gun that has popped up in some EU and Canadian samples: the common version of the gun has the "88" ID number stamped on the left-hand side below the mouse's "ear", while the variant puts it on the right side, inside the small rectangular divot in the mouse's mid-back.		: This toy was actually released in [[Hasbro]]'s ''Battle Beasts'' line as part of the "Shadow Warriors" series, but they saw ''extremely'' limited distribution, largely hitting clearance chains in the US, plus limited releases in parts of Europe.

			: There is a minor molding variant to this toy: most Brain Mouses (Mice?) have slightly oblong ears, but a sample has been found with slightly shorter, more circular ears. It is currently unclear if the short-ear version was released in the Takara line or if it is a Hasbro-release exclusive. (The rounded-ear sample found also has unpainted eyes, but that might just be a factory error. Obviously, more round-ear Mouses (Mices?) need to be found.)
