Mystery cutterHi! So I picked up a second-hand set of cookie-cutters from a neighbour, and there is one I absolutely cannot figure out. The cutter were all very ordinary, mostly Christmas-themed, but with a few random shapes (a fish, a mushroom, a moon...) thrown in. Have any of you any idea of what this thing is supposed to be? The lady tried to convince me it was a bunny but I'm not sold. I kind of see a weasel dancing on its hind legs (upper left view)...

Any ideas welcome, thanks!

The lower left one sort of looks like a kid's toy airplane - if it weren't for that big bump in the middle-top. I am so not good at this!

Hi! So I have still no idea of what this thing is supposed to be, but I tried out for fun three designs with it. There were so many suggestions it was hard to choose from, but I finally went with an animal theme : a bunny (the seller's take on it), a weasel (my own take on the cutter) and a goat (the most popular opinion). Here are the results (I had several issues with the set, so they are not great in their execution, but the designs were fun to think out!) :

If anyone wants to play the game, let me know and I'll email you the cutter template!

Totally cute. I love that you did this.

Wow, thanks, @Cookie Chomp! Incredible that you found them online!

I had in fact come here to post that I had finally figured it out on my own, while sorting my cutters this morning. I actually have the complete set as pictured in your link, but had not understood that Mystery Cutter was part of the package, as I has presumed the reindeer's legs were the trunk of the 3-D christmas tree also included in the set, and as these cutters were mixed in a bag of random other 2-D cutters.

I'm really glad we found a definitive answer for this one! (Though am slightly disappointed it is not a dancing weasel... But now that I look at it, it could make a cute 3-D bunny for Easter, if I just shorten the legs a bit?

Here is the picture of the body and the legs :
