Foam Harvest Mushrooms


The H Man writes:

Remove the bottom. Use the top glued to a base for small scale yurts and huts. You can cut doors and windows. Add snipped string or flock on top for thatching. The bottoms could be glued upside down as standing stones.

Or use the tops for SciFi bunkers.

Glue top to bottom to make, an alien archway, bug palm style tree trunks, tower.

Use as leg supports for sea town or landing pad.

Glue spare heads around cap and spare arms hanging out under cap, for horror trees or aliens.

Paint one bright red and glue to centre of gaming table. Then laugh when people press it.

Use caps as little boats.

Use caps as cooking pots, heads and arms come in handy again.

Paint as tiny nuclear explosions, or regular ones.

Paint on numbers and use as funny dice.

Paint as trees.

Use caps as hats/helmets.

Paint all your figures blue.

Sell them to the kids at your club, using such lines as,

"Whooa, these are the greatest dude."

"Like, I can't believe I'm selling these so cheap, man."

Or

"Careful, watch out for the dragon."

And

"Down with the establishment."

Slice and saute.

Halloween decorations are starting to arrive in stores, and sometimes there are some useful items for wargamers.

Foam Harvest Mushrooms

This year, Dollar Tree has Foam Harvest Mushrooms – mushrooms made of foam, three to a pack, available in four colors.

Mushrooms in three colors

Despite being made of foam, the mushrooms have a hard shell on the exterior. The bottoms are partially rounded, and the mushrooms fall over easily. They are roughly 3" in height.

Consider these for your fantasy mushroom forests or your sci-fi alien terrain…
