So this is where Yoshi comes in! Exactly how far in advance do you plan these visuals?
Roughly 3 months in advance, but I'm gonna' have to defer to Beau on this one, I don't remember when we started this one, do you, Beau?

Next to the Jerry Juhl Tribute, this is the best one yet! And green is my favorite color so I like it even more. What an awesome idea!!!
Just incase you ever want to update it, here are a few other green guys you could add:
Dr. Bunsen Honeydew (The Muppet Show)
Sherlock Hemlock (Sesame Street)
Stinky the Stinkweed (Sesame Street)
Grungetta (Sesame Street)
Homer the green Honker (Sesame Street)
Army Men (Toy Story)
Rex (Toy Story)
Manny the praying mantis (A Bug's Life)
Jiminy Cricket (Disney's Pinocchio)
Crush and Squirt (Finding Nemo)
Elliot the Dragon (Disney's Pete's Dragon)
The Joker (Batman)
Doozers (Fraggle Rock)
Plucky Duck (Tiny Toon Adventures)
Ah dang, I KNEW there were more! Just as well though, at one point, even Beau aid; "I think that's enough!" About the fourth or fifth version, we thought we were done, then I remembered some classics like Yoshi and Gumbi and Beau remembered several others as well. Retrospectivel; the next version; Beau was actually a little put off by the addition of even more characters and thought it was becoming too crowded. I agreed and we decided ultimately to keep the ones we had but eliminate any greenies from our heads from then on.
I will say this; I am surprised we forgot about the Doozers, but it's just as well because images on the web of these little guys is very scarce. The Honeydew incident was discussed, and we ultimately decided he was more melon (yellowish) then green. As far as Wembly is concerned, I always considered him green!
Zoot came up too; but it was decided he was more blue then anything, and in three weeks; expect to see him in a similar visual.
