Inspired by legends, rumors and blurry photos of curious creatures, Wild Hair Creations is now introducing its line of six creature toys for kids and adults alike. Each collectible creature in the line sports troll-like hair and the accessories to go along with its story—Sasquatch, also known as Big Foot, comes with a camera for creature sightings.
The Collectible Creatures, which come in at just over 5", also include the Jersey Devil, Yeti, Chupacabra, Mothman and Cthulhu. These creature toys are packaged in boxes that represent their natural habitat and share fun facts for cryptid fans.
As difficult as it may be to spot the creatures that these toys were based upon in the wild, the Collectible Creatures themselves were recently exhibited at the New York Toy Fair.
