It’s a frog. Plastic. Hand-painted. But not just any frog! This one moonlights as an educational tool, a stealthy bullfrog doppelganger designed to fool your eyeballs. Scientists have yet to confirm if it hops, but it sure looks like it might, which is the real magic.

My roommate got one of these for his kid and now swears it’s his new desk buddy. He talks to it, swears it blinked, and may or may not have started googling frog call audio clips. It’s truly the plastic amphibian that bridges childhood innocence with mild adult delusion.

If you want a frog that’s almost real enough to confuse a birdwatcher or spark a 3 a.m. existential crisis about the nature of fake frogs, this plastic marvel’s for you.
