The Piranha Toys Figures are figurines by Piranha Studios in Newcastle, UK. They created five different types of toys of Crazy Frog. The Piranha Toys products were listed on the official store page, theannoyingthingstuff.com, alongside with other Crazy Frog merchandise. Erik Wernquist explained his choice of manufacturer in this quote:
"Piranha Studios are the obvious choice for designing and manufacturing the product line. The creativity and success of the company continues to go from strength to strength."
Giant Bobbleheads
Riding Pose "Head Nodder"
Crazy Frog as he rides his invisible bike. The figure was distributed by Vivid Imaginations, Ltd. This figure has a bobbling head and a stand with a button which plays edited first half of 2TAKTARE.MP3 when pressed. Parts of the helmet, arms and legs are made from a rubbery PVC material, so they are bendable. There are a few differences with the pre-release version: the stand was black color and the music button had a "The Annoying Thing" logo instead of the white stand saying "Push Me" on the released product.
Regular figurines
The Annoying Thing Pose
The physical representation of one of Wernquist's original renders.
Wheee! Pose "Desk Wobbler"

Wheee! Pose Musical"Computer Wobbler"
This figure is similar to previous one, except it has a stand with button which plays sounds when pressed.
Keyrings
Similar to the regular figurines, except they have straps to be attached to a keyring. They came in three variants:
- The Annoying Thing Pose
- Riding Pose
- Wheee! Pose "Dancing Car Dangler"
- On this version of the figure, the head can be moved because of a spring inside, and instead of a keyring on the rope, there are suction cup to mount to a car dashboard.
Musical Ball
There is one variant of this toy. It is of the Wheee! pose with straps, but it's merged with a soccer ball figure. It is activated with a button on the head, and starts spinning and playing sounds.
Phone Charms

- The Annoying Thing pose
- Riding pose
- Wheee! pose
