The mysterious, ape-like creature known as Bigfoot (or Sasquatch) is believed to walk the forests of the Pacific Northwest, leaving behind nothing but the large footprints that the creature is named for. Is Bigfoot a relic from humanity’s past? Or something more supernatural? So far, no one knows for sure.
Scientific Name: Unkown
Characteristics: This Bigfoot figure accurately represents the legendary monster’s large feet, and is covered head to toe in coarse sculpted fur. He is posed in mid-walk, turning to his right to look behind him. This iconic pose of the creature is based on a still frame from the infamous “Patterson Film”, one of the most well-known supposed recordings of Bigfoot.
Size and Color: Bigfoot measures 5 ¼ inches tall and about 3 ¼ inches wide, a little bigger than a standard coffee mug. His hair is dark brown, with dark gray areas of exposed skin on his face and hands.
The Bigfoot is part of the Mythical Realms® collection.
This collection captures a nice range of mythical beauty. The sea, the air, the flames, the creatures, all translated gracefully and wonderfully in these detailed figurines. Pegasus and the sea dragon are my favorites. Pegasus looks extremely valiant and magical, and the dragon is by far the coolest figure we carry (in my opinion!). Mythical Realms figures range in size from 2.5" to 7" long, and 4" to 7" tall. - Janine
