here's what i made for this season. i call him tommy boy. took a jake, an old fan mount, and a pair of old wings. the wings are tied together at the top by a string and just drape over his neck area and hang down, and the fan slides in a slit i cut with a pair of sissors in his back. the key was using one of those stiff rubber decoys... got it from wally world for like 12 bucks. pretty boy and bmobile better watch out!
