I suspect they use the same old molds; this is thick and sturdy and exactly like the ones you see in flea markets.
Be aware: like the old ones it doesn't have a plug to remove coins, but it is fairly huge and will take a very long time to fill.
Mine arrived without the promised eye decals, but the eyes are molded in very distinctly and they were a snap to color with enamel paint. Probably could use nail polish, if you have a good cat's eye color lying around.
This is about cat-sized and it took my actual cat a good ten minutes of watching and waiting before he approached it. I wouldn't be surprised if it scared off birds, too.
