I have been fascinated by cryptids since a young age. They often represent a cultural or social aspect of society, such as coping with a socio-cultural change or a story that has been transformed over time. Mothman is my favorite of the bunch, and its become a bit of a cultural favorite in the last few years. This has resulted in a bit of merchandise over the years including books, plush, stickers and much more. Merchandise which I have willingly indulged in myself, and this list showcases many of my favorites.

(Note - Ravensburger is my favorite brand, but I do touch on some other brands as well). Also, I don't currently have anything to recommend that's over 1,000 pieces, simply because I just don't have the space for it, so I have not done those :(
