    Contraption Explosion! 3 Frankenpunk devices!

    I really hope I'm not boring anyone with these. I did so many customs at the end of last year, I was just burnt out. I needed to clear my head a little.

    So this is the first one. And guess what...it lights up! All six bubbles on the side light up as well as the new clear parts on top. It all works on the knife switch on the front. I tried to get a good picture, but it is hard to get it to look right! 20 led bulbs.



    This next one actually has a name...The Necroscopic Transmitter. It allows you to communicate with the other world as fast as you can type. It's a hunt and peck seance! It also lights up! The bulbs under the two clear parts flicker and flash. There is a switch on the front next to the type writer, it looks a bit like an old fashioned telegraph...thing.



    A close-up:



    I haven't put legs or anything on it yet, so it is sitting on a piece of wood in the picture.

    This last one, I can't decide if it is done yet. It is a little plain, but I didn't want to put too much on it and detract from the gears.



    I finally got them all together for a family portrait:



    Thanks for looking and thanks to everyone who comments. I really appreciate it. These are all for sale and anyone who is interested can pm me.

      Wow! Do you have a playset to display these in? I think You should make your own Mego Monster film! (in B&W of course!)

        You know what a fan I am of these
        The B/W pics really do make it look like an old monster movie.
        About that last one, the one you think is a little plain, maybe you could add a couple of dials in the upper corners.
        The The Necroscopic Transmitter is a real beauty

          Man, I really dig that stuff. It looks like it fell right out of the background of a Hellboy comic.

            Not even close to boring! In fact, these are extremely cool and interesting. All the amazing figures here deserve quality playsets and accessories like these.
