2006 Cryptoholiday Gifts
Posted by: Loren Coleman on December 19th, 2006
Here are five last minute gift ideas or something for your birthday wish list for 2007:
1. How about Monster’s Choice Scottish Whiskey, here from the gift shops near Loch Ness, for those people secure enough in their cryptozoology to know that most of the Nessie eyewitnesses are not drinking?
2. Or maybe would you like to pick up one of the David Horvath Mothman Vinyl Toys if you are not scared of what might happen when you own one of these?
3. Or perhaps a NagleWorks creation of the male form of the Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot, (with optional digging stick supplied from your own yard)?
4. Or can you stop with the Thetis Lake Monster or
5. The Dover Demon, after you discover the hundreds of great cryptid figurines at Clawmark Toys?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Don’t forget the choices, also, in The Top Cryptozoology Books of 2006 and The Top Cryptofiction Books of 2006. And then there’s always the Insurgents Wilderness Gruppo’s Sasquatch vinyl toy, as pointed out by Boing Boing’s David Pescovitz.

About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
I’m adding these to my wish list!!
These are great, Loren! Thanks for sharing!
Great stuff Loren, thanks. NagleWorks Bigfoot looks like he’s been spending some serious time in the gym!
I live in Japan and was shopping in the Toys R’ Us here for presents and came across a radio controlled Loch Ness Monster. I didn’t know who I would give it to, but I bought it and can’t bring myself to give it away. Do they sell those over in the sates?
Thetis Lake Monster!?
Thats in my neck of the woods, I’ll have to go check it out. Anyone else know anything about it?

Don’t forget the Cryptozoology Shop!
These are really cool! Now about those flying reindeer…
How much for just a digging stick?
Oh, a note as to Reindeer: I’m sure many of you realize that only female reindeer retain their antlers in the winter. At least…standard non-crypto reindeer…
Antlers as gift ideas? Anyway, antlers are grown every year and drop off annually, in December for males and usually about a month later for females. Nevertheless, both genders lose them over the winter.
🙂
Thanks for the correction, Loren.
