fans are up in arms over a flaming hot Cheeto that appears to take on the shape of the popular Fire-type Charizard. Though it is fitting for the blazing to be flaming hot, it seems that fans will go to great lengths to get their hands on this piece of history, as bids have now reached four figures.
This might sound too off the wall to be true, but you absolutely read that right. Properly deemed as «Cheetozard», the flaming hot Cheeto does take on the shape of Charizard in a bizarre-looking way.
In this post by Nintendeal on X,you can clearly see the arms, legs, tail, and even almost perfectly proportionate wings. If that wasn't enough, it comes in its very own clear card storage box affixed to a customized card sporting the proper name of the smoking-hot snack.
While this may seem like a story straight out of a video game itself, the shaped Cheeto is very real and very expensive. At the time of writing, the Cheetozard has a current bid of $4,250 on Goldin, which does not include shipping either.
The 3-inch-long spicy has sparked quite the discussion on social media, as this is not the first time this specific piece of merchandise has surfaced, first making an appearance in 2024.
