Toy Stuffed Animals Become Road Kill


You might have noticed a post or two about the popular stuffed animals called Webkinz. I have two fantastic children and they both love their Webkinz stuffed animals, and I must admit that I have grown to love the time I spend with them on the Webkinz website. I have now found something that I just can't stop looking at.

Have you ever been driving down the road and see an accident. You just can't help looking, even though you know you shouldn't and it is wrong, but our curiosity prevents us from looking at something we know we shouldn't. Well there is a new stuffed animal toy soon to be released called Road Kill Toys.

I just can't help looking at them and yes I will most likely buy one or two (probably all of them). I can't help it. It must be that little boy inside of me that can't help but laugh at this grotesque toy. I know it is wrong, but I want one.

Compost Communications, the creators of the new toy line, will be launching their first stuffed toy demise with the Roadkill Racoon named Twitch. A history of the stuffed animal's gruesome death will come attached on a tag. The animals guts can be zipped back up inside its body but the tire track will probably never come off and I doubt that you can get the eye back in it's socket.

Future Roadkill releases will include Grind the rabbit, Splodge the hedgehog and Pop the weasel. The toys will go on sale about mid-December at roadkilltoys.com or if you live in London they will be released at Play Lounge.

If you are a bit squeemish and want to find a nicer looking stuffed animal for your child then go take a look at some Webkinz For Sale.
