Most likely fake.

EDIT: Yeah, it's fake. Cool nonetheless.

Those are super cool! They'd definitely be a conversation piece...

They are neat looking.

I'd love to make one of those myself.

Thanks everyone. I thought I would show these to some folks who really appreciate cryptids! Glad you all like them

These are so fake. You can tell they're fake.

You may never know what you'll find on ebay nowdays.

Yes, they are fake. They are supposed to be fake. I made sure the auction says that they are made from clay to ensure that no one is deceived. I just thought you might enjoy seeing them as they are cryptid related. Have a nice day!!!!

Good items for your room! Not for a serious person...

You should be making those guys for a living, if you're not already. I bet you could find a pretty decent market for them.

I think you can make those at SeaWorld for like 50 cents or something.....she needs to get-together with the guy who made the "real" mermaid on e-bay that some nuclear physicist bought for $1550.00, together they could sell that guy enough to make a recreation of Atlantis.

That second one looks like the angel fossil from The Simpsons.

another name for e-bay is "flee-bay"--everything is either fake or overpriced junk-- with inflated shipping charges! i think the ebay deal and pay pal must be run by the frangis from star trek !!--lol

Too bad Homer diddn't eat that to.

There is a long tradition for this kind of thing, but instead of clay, the old fakes were made of real animal parts. Mermaids of this type go back hundreds of years, a accounts of buying mummified mermaids in oriental ports are mentioned in captain's logs.

Unicorn horns were incredibly valuable in medieval times before people realized they were from a whale and not a unicorn.

"Baby dragons" were made out of stingrays with the addition of other parts.

Creeper would like the mermaid one.
I'm doomed.

Fantasy sculture.
The very ad, says it is manmade!!!!
The operative word here is "FANTASY".
