Hunters claim to have captured Bigfoot's Australian cousin downunder

• Two 'Yowie searchers' claim to have filmed a strange Bigfoot-like creature
• Mysterious beast with glowing eyes dubbed 'The Morning Visitor'
• They say they lured 'him' onto camera using a bunch of apples
• Video sparks mixed opinions from online Yowie hunting community

Two friends who claim to have captured vision of an Australian Bigfoot say they 'convinced' the elusive creature to appear on film by offering him a feast of apples. 

The grainy early-morning video, shot in South Queensland on March 29, has sent an online community of Bigfoot hunters into a spin after the friends who filmed it claimed the clip is evidence of the mysterious Yowie - a mythical creature rumoured to roam the Aussie bush. 

Jason Heal and Jason Dunn, self-described 'Yowie searchers', posted the vision to their YouTube account on April 5 and dubbed the strange creature with glowing eyes 'The Morning Visitor'.

'We'd been throwing him a few extra apples since he was willing to appear on camera,' Jason Heal told MailOnline. 

'I'm somebody who believes in appreciation in life and if he's showing himself, we appreciate the fact.

'We even left a few apples without the camera and said "you can have the apples but we don't get the prize."'

He said the Yowie first appeared the Thursday afternoon before their early morning video by waving its 'black hairy arm' in front of the lens 'to see if it's going to set the camera off or not'.

Bigfoot Best Action Figures"

In the world of Cryptozoology, Bigfoot is a huge attraction. So, why not a list of the best selling Bigfoot action figures. I bet you had some of these when growing up and may still have some of the older ones.

By far the most popular Bigfoot figure in the 1970's was the Bigfoot from the TV show "The Six Million Dollar Man. Bigfoot was played by Andre the Giant and then Ted Cassidy who also portrayed "Lurch" on the TV series "The Addams Family. These action  figures still show up on places like ebay and Amazon.com

Next is the Accoutrements Bigfoot action figure. It's posed as a recreation of the Patterson Bigfoot head turn and even included a mini stamp pad that allowed you to leave his foot prints all over.

Also very popular was the STRANGEco's vinyl figures. These figures have been sold out for a long time. You may still be able to find some, but expect to pay possibly upwards of $400 for it

Back in 2003, Mezco's Cryptozoology line came out with plastic replicas of Bigfoot, the Mothman and the Jersey Devil. While the Bigfoot figure was somewhat popular, the rest died a quick and sudden death in the sales market.

One of the newer figures is Fisher-Price's Imaginext Bigfoot the Monster. How many kids have you seen this in his or her toy box? Maybe Tim Fasano will use one of these in his next hoax. Hey! Maybe Jon Foss aka "Jack Barnes" will fly Steve Kulls out to prove the toy is a freaking hoaxed Baby Bigfoot? No wait!!!! Foss and company may do an "expert video on it being a real Bigfoot with the usual Facebook/FindBigfoot description of the "Up and down" movement, the mid tarsal break and the conned head.

The ultimate Bigfoot auction figure which isn't really a auction figure is the Sideshow Exclusive Bigfoot Statue w/Art Print & Footprint - Sasquatch. With only 50 ever made they are selling on ebay for $329.00!!!!!

 

I have a feeling that 2013 is going to be a gigantic Bigfoot action figure explosion. You may even see an action figure of ""The Best Bigfoot Tracker in the World." Can you guess who it is? 

 

That all for now. Till next time, as they say "Keep On Squatchin"
