Description
This realistic double crown lizard toy is made in thermoplastic rubber, with the textured skin, splayed toes and long tapering tail of the real reptile. Bright turquoise green covers the head, back and legs, blending into a sunny yellow along the jaw and belly, with dark reddish-brown feet and a pale tail ringed in deep red. Two raised crests give it its name: one rises behind the head and a second runs along the back like a fin. It measures 15cm long, 8cm wide and 2.8cm high, and at just 19 grams it sits lightly in the hand.
We think it makes a cheerful companion wherever a touch of the wild is welcome. Set it on a desk among the pens, perch it on a bookshelf or a windowsill beside a few houseplants, or tuck it into the toy box ready for jungle adventures and imaginative play. Because it is so light and compact, it travels easily in a pocket or a bag, so it can come along on days out. Its true-to-life colouring means it holds its own on display as well as it does in play, and it makes a fun small gift that is sure to raise a smile when it is unwrapped.
Thermoplastic rubber gives the lizard a rubbery feel in the hand, and the fine detail is shaped into its surface, from the ridged crests to the tiny toes. The colours shade from one tone to the next as they would on a real lizard, which is what gives it such a lifelike look. To keep it looking its best, wipe it over with a damp cloth, let it dry naturally and keep it away from direct heat. For a little jungle scene, sit it among a few potted plants on a shelf, or wrap it up as a small surprise that brings a bit of the rainforest indoors.

It has two raised crests, one rising behind the head and a second running along its back, which give this lizard its unusual and eye-catching profile.
