Default Menard's Flying Ghost Hack

ok so we didn't have much hacking to do ...lol.. we just undressed the little Bugger and added a Foam skull to the mechanism and draped some cheese cloth over it ...

but here is a short video to show you what it looks like and how it moves

Okay, I just got Lotus to send it to me. I don't know why it opened for him. Playing favorites Holly? LOL

It's really pretty cool Holly.And I'm sure much better than the way you bought it. It's a pretty neat mobile FCG. How much was it?

Man I love that thing. If I test that in the back yard my young chocalate lab will have a fit. She will chew that thing to bits. Do they makes those dog resistant?

Only I'm not sure it was the same, the one on Holly's had moving arms, and the box on the one we saw didn't mention that at all.
