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

The existent versions are Large dancing plush, Singing piranha plant-headed plush and Mini Plush

Characteristics

The comon characteristics they share are their gray body color instead of blue; white lips; green spots instead of dark blue, plastic swimming 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 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 piranha plant-headed medium bootleg plush

Singing piranha plant-headed 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

Trivia

• 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.

• 
  Not all the sizes, but a good amount of them
• 
  No info about it's origins, obtained in a funfair back in 2011.
• 
  One of the weirdest bootlegs, seems like an oversimplified version with blue eyes.
• 
  Rare bootleg only seen on ebay a few times, unknown if it's a prototype or anything else.
