I've been searching and searching for things to use (including actual horns) to make a horn for the gonzo poser. Couldn't find anything similar (or cheap) enough until now.
So I just wanted to share my creation with everyone..and here's the recipe:

You can find everything at lowes. You'll need a 1/2" x 12" copper tube (cut it to make it 8 15/16" long). Next the copper end piece; and then a 3 pack of funnels (use the 4" wide yellow one). All you need to do is cut and file off the tab sticking off of the funnel and stem (to make it the same width as the pipe), glue everything together and spray paint the whole thing metallic brass. The end result should be 14" tall. Which is the scaled size of the horn that came with the palisades gonzo figure. The total cost for everything minus the paint is right over $9. It's not perfect, but I think it gets the job done with an accurate length and a fair price.
