Build Your Own GOBBLERS!

 These Dinosaurs are easily purchased at any Dollarama, but don't stick your nose in the bag it reeks of plasic/petroleum. Really love the thrilled expression on the faces of the Velociraptor (pictured above) and the T-Rex.
 These may be a little harder to find I grabbed a few bags because c'mon, how often do you come across a toy plastic turkey, the detailing on the feathers is really nice too. These guys have a hard time standing up on their bases/tiny legs so I TITAN ALL PURPOSE glue them to little masonite bases, saves alot of frustration.
 To chop the heads off the dinos I use my leatherman saw, easy to hold and position, sometimes the heads have a simple seam where they're glued that you can cut. If you're too young to be doing this ask a parent or elder sibling to help you out. Once the heads are off (see above) they usually fit right onto the birds without having to cut the bird's heads off, but you might have to, depends on what makes you happiest.
Here are three GOBBLERS! attached to their bases and with heads glued on, they're drying right now but will soon be ready for basecoating, final  paint and application of moss!
see you soon!
