Comments about GNOME-BE-GONES WITH GNOME:

I bought this one and the "Flamingo:here's your pink slip" Wonderful products, my kids and neighbours love them. I do recommend two things though: 1) drill a hole in the bottom of the mouth so water doesn't accumulate - a minor issue but our rain is hard and can wreck metal over a long period of time. 2) Laquer them several times. When I received both these pieces there was already considerable rust on both which I managed to buff out with steel wool and have now laquered and put in my garden. I have several large bushes which make the little aliens blend in with the garden, so I might consider painting them with Tremclad - evil M&Ms!! Overall a wonderful product - a little pricy though...

Comments about GNOME-BE-GONES WITH GNOME:

The reviewers are right about the rust. It immediately and completely rusted, but my husband and I kind of liked it. It went with the "gobliny" feel of the piece, and made it stand out a little more against the color of the mulch in our flowerbed. It was actually bigger than I expected it to be, which was nice. And I still don't think I've seen anything else like it locally.

Service & Delivery comments:

Good job! As always!
