Description
guru's "A Gekko" has clearly become an iconic cultural symbol of our generation, and so it seems only fitting that it boldly adorn our holiday trees.
For added sparkle, soften the plastic after printing and press-fit one 2-carat Tolkowsky-cut internally flawless diamond into each head, and dangle a single strand of tinsel from the bottom.
Display the heads-in variety to express unity and togetherness, and display the heads-out variety to instill fear.
WARNING: This is NOT a weapon, and should NOT be used as one. For a weapons-grade interpretation, see the Chinese Throwing Gekko at thingiverse.com/thing:29105

Love this, it's so cool. I really have to print some of these. They'd also make great window decorations printed out of translucent plastic!
