Design Toscano’s Giant Bigfoot: Almost Ready to Ship!!

Posted by: Loren Coleman on March 17th, 2012

Design Toscano is offering “free shipment” this weekend. But apparently not on the one item most of us want.

Their site notes the following:

*FREE STANDARD SHIPPING WITH MINIMUM $75 PURCHASE IS VALID THROUGH MARCH 18th, 2012 ONLY.
*Free Standard Shipping requires a purchase of $75 or more.
*Free Standard Shipping is not valid with any other offer, coupon, discount, previous orders or Trade Orders.
*Available only in the contiguous United states. Not available in Alaska, Hawaii.
*Does not include oversized or freight surcharges. Valid on Standard Shipping Only
*Discount taken at checkout.


So, I would assume this means NOT their Giant Bigfoot! Darn it.


Not the greatest copy to sell this item, but here’s what Design Toscano says about their “Bigfoot the Giant Life-size Yeti Statue” (yes, that’s their title, not mine):

Bigfoot the Giant Life-size Yeti Statue

Tribal cultures have spotted giant Bigfoot-Yeti creatures for over five hundred years, describing the mysterious beast as ape-like hairy men; creatures of the dark forest. Is it possible that reclusive, mythical giant hairy ape-like Yeti creatures inhabit our planet? Design Toscano has captured the mythical giant Bigfoot in a breathtaking life-size 6-foot quality designer resin statue, hand-painted for startling Sasquatch realism. The Giant Garden Yeti Statue will have guests doing a double take and then running to get a camera to record the occasion! Taking over four months to research, sculpt and cast, the Giant Garden Yeti sculpture commands a unique presence in home or garden.

45″Wx38″Dx72″H. 147 lbs.

Put in your order now. They ship on the 30th.

The asking price: $1995 + $39 shipping.

BTW, designers and copyeditors at Design Toscano, the Yetis/Abominable Snowmen are much more pongid and apelike (look at the feet, below, for example) than the allegedly more human-like Bigfoot/Sasquatch! Just a heads up. We still all love your stuff!! 🙂

    I’ve been reading abominable snowman and bigfoot reports since I was in high school almost forty years ago. Very few of the reports mention an almost lion like mane or a big bushy beard, but this statue refuses to go away.

  2. Big Frank responds:

    According to their website, Design Toscano will add 12.5% for shipping. So, this will really cost about $250 more.

    I would probably pay a bunch for a statue like this, but $2300? I’d be more likely to attempt to make my own out of 2×4’s and chicken wire. Where can I get some fur?

    And, I have ordered and love some of their smaller stuff. I’m hooked, and will probably order a few more things, but not the big guy.

  3. choppedlow responds:

    I’ll be ordering mine next month for sure! I already have a few of the small ones and the a half dozen trees on my property have the “peeking bigfoot” attached. I plan on installing red LED lights in the eyes and have it connected to the front gate so that they light up when it opens. I just hope that no one video tapes it and it gets “verified” by those clowns at facebook finding bigfoot.

Sorry. Comments have been closed.
