I have never regretted purchasing this mannequin hand that I move randomly about my apartment. Literally years of entertainment.

Yuji’s not afraid of much, but he is terrified of store mannequins. Unfortunately, he has to go shopping through a mall for a new pair of shoes. He clings to your hand and buries into your legs as you walk past the display windows, those faceless and headless mannequins adorning fashionable outfits and scaring the poor boy.
Choso watches with a smile and leads the three of you to the shoe store, that also sells clothing, which also has a mannequin on either side of where you pay. Yuji refuses to walk in and almost starts crying, so you kneel to his level and he hugs you.
“Yuji, you have to go in there.” You sigh and hug him. He shakes his head frantically.
“I don’t wanna…”
“We can’t bring the shoes to you to try on out here, it’ll be stealing.”
“I don’t wanna go in there!”
“Yuji, don’t get that tone with me. I know you’re scared and you don’t want to go in there, but we have to get you new shoes. We’ve put it off long enough. I’ll carry you and cover your eyes, but you have to go into the store.” You say firmly. Choso kind of finds the tone attractive.
Yuji sniffles and nods. “Okay, you can cover my eyes…”
So you do just that. You lift Yuji into your arms and he buries his face into your neck, hiding from the mannequins that he’s convinced are staring at him.
You show him shoes and Choso puts them on Yuji’s feet to make sure they’re the right size. Choso pays for the shoes and you carry Yuji out of the store, treating him to food from the food court and some candy.
“You did great, Yuji. I’m proud of you for getting through the store and getting cool new shoes.” Choso smiles to his little brother.
“Thanks!” Yuji’s back to all smiles now that he’s away from those horrible things that show off clothing.
You three visit a few more stores, avoiding mannequins. Choso buys you a few items, insisting to pay for you since he dragged you along for the trip. You felt a little bad, since a few items were quite pricey, but Choso doesn’t mind spoiling you.

i just noticed the decor in the background of your fabulous red shirt photos and it is awesome, the feathers, the bottles, the cups... especially the hand with the finger (?) next to it. Is it wax? did you make it yourself?
i have the option to make a wax hand next week, before i thought it was one of the kids activities to be ignored, but now that i see yours i think about making one
Nope, it's a hollow plastic mannequin hand!
I rescued it from the garbage at work, and I've been meaning to glue the finger back on and repaint it, but haven't yet.
One fun thing about it being broken is that you can blow across the hole (like a bottle) and it makes a sound.
Not to be confused with the intact hands of Mr. Fibreglass, who is also a mannequin I got from work when they replaced them all a couple years ago.
