Scarecrow Golem

I feel that currently the 2 golem types in Minecraft are a little lacking, sure the iron golem is high in health and damage but I think that the amount of materials need to make them is unnecessary, as well as the snow golem just becoming a tool for trolls as their snowballs do no damage. I believe that a third golem may be in order, for now I'll call them the Scarecrow/Scarecrow Golem. The Scarecrow would be a player-sized golem and would be constructed the same as the snow golem but, instead substitute snow with haybales. The Scarecrow could would have a wooden or maybe a stone sword and it would have low health most likely 10. So they would be easy to dispatch but, they would also be relatively cheap to make and replace. Of course I know that some aren't so into farming but I still believe that the Scarecrow Golem would be a nice and possible welcome addition to the game.

    Maybe instead of throwing snowballs they would throw eggs and they naturally spawn at village farms. They should only attack mobs that eat the crops instead of attacking every hostile mob.

    the animation could be so cool!

    i think that the scarecrow should  just protect your crops and scare the animals.

    and it could be a Great oportunity to add new types of jack-o-lanterns.

    i Hope this idea Gets votes.

    Yeah I think if they're spawned in a village they should stay inside the village boundaries like the iron golem does

    I’m commenting because I wasn’t allowed to post my idea because this post exists.

    “The Hay Golem” (Scarecrow)

    1: Place any type of Fence* the fence determines your Golem’s clothing
    2: Place a Haybale on the Fence
    3: Place a Carved Pumpkin/ Jack o’Lantern on the Hay Bale

    - “Hay Golems” do not walk

    - Using a Stick or any type of Hoe on the Golem equips the item to the Golem- The Hay Golem has sticks for arms, and the equipped item is “tied” to the ends of its arms to make its arms longer and give them scythes for hands. Each arm can be equipped with 1 Stick or Hoe.

    - If a Hay Golem dies its drop chances are Pumpkin Seeds and Wheat, and the item it has equipped.

    - Hay Golems have 7 Hearts, using Wheat restores 1 Heart

    - Hay Golems can turn on their Block, and are animated.

    - Zombies and Banshees are drawn to and attack Hay Golems, thinking they are injured Villagers.

    - Hay Golems attack Zombies and Banshees, dealing damage based on their equipped Hoe/Stick.
    If a Hay Golem has no weapon it is not able to attack Banshees, but Banshees will still attack the Golem. (It can’t reach)

    - Hay Golems will “till” all Dirt Block variants adjacent to it. The area of this increases by 1 Block if the Hay Golem is wielding a Stick, and increased by 2 Blocks if wielding a Hoe.

    - “Haunted Hayride” if the Hay Golem (Scarecrow) becomes a thing: add the ability to place a Fence inside a Minecart, so the Hay Golems can ride on a track.
