You know the first video is a proven hoax.. The man who filmed it admitted it was a hoax.

Who is to say all extra terrestrials must fit the dimensions we deem probable!

Could even be probes/UAV's! Perfect little things for spying on the general populace without getting too much attention

Moral of the story....if you find one...beat the living crap out of it with a sledgehammer.

So it can't fly away.

Good plan, man. Simple and straightforward.

That's how we Humans roll, baby.

Hi, again, smallcheese.

Thank you for that. I just wanted to make sure that you understand that I am not trying to pull the wool over anyone's eyes. I had hoped to make it clear in my OP that I have dragged the poor little thing over here so that we could send it to its final resting place in hoaxland. I think we have pretty much accomplished that; aside from the fact that we can't seem to find anything exactly like it, en toto or in its component parts.

I noticed the bossing, too, and I posted about that as well on page 2 or 3. I think they once were bosses or flanges that have been partially eradicated by re-tooling or machining. Good eye, smallcheese.

The color photo is an artist's digital rendering of the object, I am sorry I did not make that clear from the beginning. I cropped it and cleaned it up and thought it would look nice at the top.

Thanks again for your input.

I was referring to this picture posted by bluemoone2 found on that site

Aw. Yeah that's a good one and I would love to know why it looks so different from the others; it almost looks like it is not made of the same stuff.

I pulled out this detail from the Manga comic cited by Morphy. I thought maybe you'd like to see it. The artist's rendition looks very different...

Compared to...

It's different for sure, but because it's a comic I wouldn't expect it to be a 100% accurate rendition.
Anyway, I think the symbol now on the bottom is supposed to be the bird:

I think so, too. Pictographically it seems to suggest a cycle; bird, bird with leaf, water, bird....

It really does seem to me something that someone would put on an Ikebana accessory, though my mind registers the Noah's Ark thing, too.

I can't help but think that it is an ashtray

That's what Miro's father thought, too...

“The frequent nights out of the boys began to worry parents, I told my son if it was true what he said, to bring the object. He did: it was something like an ashtray, cast iron, but too light for this metal. (It) had a top down it was impossible to open and inside were pieces similar to a radio. I did not give more importance, but now I regret not having studied more closely.”

Matsuo Fujimoto. The boy Miro's father.

My initial reaction was to doubt it, when I read that it had "electronic components inside" I further went down the doubt line.

I'm very much leaning towards a prank that was copied a couple of times, I doubt a stunningly superior race of beings would use parts from Radioshack (or Tandy as we knew them here in the UK).

Also the engineering is very basic.

As much as I'd love it to be a real alien object or even a fantastic man made creation of military usage I firmly go for a hoax with people embellishing the story.

Agreed.

If the children were able to identify the guts of it as 'electronic' even if what they saw made them think 'electronics' then I am thinking this thing was probably a combo of spare electronics parts and a small hibachi of some sort. I now think the thing was crated by the father and was probably meant to ride the heels of the already occurring rash of 'tiny alien' sightings that were all the rage in Asia and SE Asia during the 70's.

Thanks for coming by.
