Bottled Monster Embryos

TwistedStudioDesigns Makes an Odd Additon to Your Pokémon Collection

— January 19, 2014 — Unique
If you have your own Pokémon collection, but want to add something totally weird and freaky to it, Etsy artist TwistedStudioDesigns bottled the perfect thing for you. Freak out your friends and even disturb yourself! Why go out and catch a Pokémon when you could just buy a baby one and grow it yourself? These little monster embryos are certainly something else.

This absurd little oddity is a must for your Pokémon collection. Inside a small glass bottle is a tiny pocket monster embryo. It looks a lot like what an unborn Pokémon would actually look like -- if they were real. It is floating in fluids that are kept in with a wooden cork. If you order one, you can pick which monster you want. Displayed on the seller's site is Charmander and Pichu, which are both made of polymer clay.
Trend Themes
1. Bottled Monster Collectibles - Opportunity for artists to create and sell unique bottled monster embryos as collectible items for niche markets beyond Pokémon enthusiasts.
2. Unconventional Pokémon Merchandise - Opportunity for businesses to tap into the demand for bizarre and unconventional Pokémon-related products, such as bottled monster embryos, to cater to the whimsical preferences of collectors and fans.
3. Customizable Unborn Pokémon Replicas - Opportunity for artisans to offer personalized options for customers to choose their desired Pokémon embryo, allowing for a more customized and immersive collecting experience.
Industry Implications
1. Art & Design - Artists and craftsmen have the opportunity to expand their offerings by creating and selling unique bottled monster embryos to collectors and enthusiasts.
2. Novelty & Gift - Businesses in the novelty and gift industry can cater to the demand for unconventional Pokémon merchandise, including bottled monster embryos, as quirky gifts for pop culture enthusiasts.
3. Customization & Personalization - Craftsmen and artisans specializing in customization can offer personalized options for customers to choose their preferred Pokémon embryo, enhancing the collectible experience and allowing for further customization.
