In Sweden we have tons of tomtar (less degenerate and non-commercialized versions of Santa Claus), usually in the shape of porcelain or ceramic figurines

Literally nothing of what I posted was stolen from Finland

Tomtar are from Scandinavian folk lore from Norse times. The Yule goat is, as the name implies, from the Yule bloting tradition which is a Norse pagan ritual.

What you posted is concept art from a film that is like 2 years old.

Could it be that you are desperately trying to find pictures of the Finnish, krampus-esque Yule goat but you're struggling to come up with something other than modern renditions?

lmao desu
