Gray bootlegs

Bootleg dancing plush

Gray bootlegs are a series of different bootlegs with a common color scheme that come from unknown different companies. The designs of the plushes are very dull and don’t have very vibrant colors. They are usually cheaply made and usually consist in the Crazy Frog's The Annoying Thing and The Holiday Thing designs but there are also some variations.

The existent sizes were thought to be small, medium and large, but recently bigger and smaller ones (this ones in a motorbike driving position) have been found, and some remember seeing smaller models than the ones we've seen.

Characteristics

The comon characteristics they share are their gray body color instead of blue, white lips, green spots instead of dark blue, plastic googles (Most of them being even the same exact ones eventhough the plushes are different) and having visible genital area, instead of none like the official Crazy Frog plushes.

Known models

Large dancing plush

The dancing plush is a clear a bootleg of the Outrageous large "dancing & singing" plush. It has a wider and more accurate face, spins his torso arround, shakes arms and legs while playing a fast version of Axel F when you press his feet. This toy is the only one that seems to have it's own box.

The Annoying Thing medium bootleg plush

Singing plush

The most common version of the gray plushes. When you squeeze on the stomach of the plush it will play a short version of 2TAKTARE.MP3 but there have been rare ocasions of some that played Axel F.

It has two models initially, the medium Crazy Frog's The Annoying Thing and The Holiday Thing designs, but after that other versions and sizes started to spawn like the Axel F on the rocket one, and there seem to be plushes that change size by some centimeters and other versions of unknown date with closed mouth, only one lip and simpler eyes and goggles.

The smaller sizes of the medium plushes are something mistrerious for now, not a lot of them are seen and there are several versions as far as we know.

Some people remember seeing smaller versions of the medium plushes identical to them that made sound, just smaller, but we have never found any pictures again, other model is the motorbike posed ones, one of those is found and makes it's sound, just like the medium plush.

Mini Plushes

Very small gray bootleg plushes with about 4 different colors and sound chip in the form of keychains. These measure around 10 cm (almost 4 in).

Trivia

• The hawaiian shirt that the DJ frog wears seem to have changed the design in some plushes, it's unknown if over a different drop of plushes or what's the reason.
• They usually appeared in fleamarkets, fairs, and other coloquial places.
• One of the theories about the color scheme is the designers seeing an Axel-F screen shot in low quality back in the day, since Crazy Frog's color wasn't very clear with that resolution an lighting.
