This is at the same time the coolest and creepiest Christmas ornament I’ve ever seen. It’s a hyper-realistic growth-mushroom from Mario Bros, but one that looks like it’s about to croak from old age. But the wizened look in his eyes says he’s lead a good life.

It’s from sculptor Jamie Magary who has also done a wicked Piranha Plant. Keept it up man! I want a real-life Goomba next.
