I had more GB's than the ones shown below. Some were scrapped because i wasn't happy with them, some were made into other props.
These are the survivors. There is one purchase GB, the others are home made and animated. The purchased one may actually be changed and put above the entry way to the house (kind of laying at 45 degrees with hand and head hanging over the eavestrough.

Thank you! The best way to get a big bunch of these guys is all about prep! I build 10 guys at a time. I cut all my wood and lay out all my ribs. I use rolled news paper and garden hose. I set out all the screws and have the hot glue gun hot and ready to go. I then sketch a quick pose of each ground breaker and then cut my pvc and then build hands if needed. I then select the skull I want to use and how ill position it. My skull of choice is the walgreens resin skull. I stuff the bodies with news paper or expanding foam. I use paper mache. For skin and cheese cloth and other ragged materials. All in all it takes about a week from start to finish.

Screws that will hold onto foam?
Halloween PropsI sometimes need to attach things to foam. In one instance it was a foam tombstone that I needed to attach to a thin plywood base, so it would stand up on a stage. Many years ago, I recall seeing someone use what I thought were drywall screws. But, that didn't hold at all on the polystyrene...- 11

Train on the Brain. Curse you, J-Man!
Halloween PropsWhile more normal people are thinking about turkey, I'm pondering ways a ghost train can travel across my yard and cross the street fronting my house. Ever since J-Man suggested that someone include a surprise out-of-the-dark train light and horn on a haunted trail walk, I've wanted to do it...- 14

Electronic/Software: Audio Editing Software
Halloween PropsI'm trying to find some type of software to split audio tracks. More specifically I need to eliminate the music and get the vocals from some songs I'm planning for a new 3 -axis build. I've tried singing myself on one track and it was a disaster. The vocals would not synch up with the music...- 18
