Interesting Facts: Though tochukaso are parasitic in nature, Paras manages to make use of the mushrooms by creating a semi-symbiotic relationship; the mushrooms draw their nutrients from the host Paras's body in order to grow, and Paras is able to use the mushrooms spores along with its own pincers for self-defense.

NOTES: Start at the 'nose', attaching the parts as numbered. It's best to attach in this order so that you can put pressure from the inside to make the pieces set onto the body. Attach the mushroom staulks onto the body before the head of the mushroom. Use the front claws of the body in order to get Paras to stand. Close at the back of the body.
