This one's just flying, perfectly harmless! He even has a lion's mane. This little guy is basically The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe's Aslan. But if you're still grossed out, just pretend it's the Bat-Signal and move on.

Here they're either having a kindergarten slumber party, or they look like they could be placed in a T-shirt gun and shot into the audience at the basketball game of nightmares. For the purposes of our project, we'll go with slumber party.
