Hillwood (and Firstman, which was the same company) built knockoffs ofRoland synths, as far as I know. I guess Multivox would have been the importer.
As a promotional tool, Firstman founder Kazuo Morioka had his daughter(who was something like 14) lead a band that played all Firstman instruments.
If you're in the mood for exotic synth spotting plus total cheese overdose, they made some TV appearances.

I've heard the album, it's actually better than you might guess.
Sorry if that's off topic, it's weird enough to be interesting.
