ROAD-KILL CUDDLY TOYS
With their guts spewing and eyes hanging out, these are the cuddly toys children might be reluctant to curl up to. But the gruesome road kill creations are actually proving to be a hit with kids – selling thousands as gifts and keepsakes. The unusual looking toys were created by art director Adam Arber, 37, when he decided to fuse the gruesome with the cute, similar to what you would see on Itchy and Scratchy from The Simpsons. ‘I came up with the Roadkill idea during a bit of down time at work,’ Adam, from Notting Hill Gate, London, said. ‘I liked the idea of mixing a gruesome theme with cute medium- plush toys, and thought you couldn't get more gruesome than a run over teddy with its guts squished out
