The first realistic werewolf baby doll to ever be produced in this way, with a distinct balance of canine-human hybrid features directly from the mind of Asia Eriksen, Toby was a massive turning point for the WerePups brand. He marked the shift from latex with sculpted fur to silicone with hand rooted hair.

 

The premier of "Toby" at the Rock and Shock horror convention in 2011 caused a stir among those attending. Small crowds began to form, trailing behind Asia and her crew as they carried the tiny bundle around the showroom floor. By day two of the event, people at the event were waiting at the Doghead Studios booth before it opened, hoping to catch a glimpse of the unusual werewolf baby - the talk of the show.

 

Soon after, Toby would make a waves in the reborn doll community, and even influence a new generation of fantasy reborn artists.
