    Hello everyone!
    This prop is really great! I wish he shook a little more violently than frenzied but hey its still cool! My only other complaints are the audio options! If I pipe the sound out through aux he doesnt vibrate at all. Unless Im doing it wrong. He would sound so good with some better speakers! That is just a dumb thing Gemmy does! Also if anyone can help ...there are leds above his head that light him up great however they are green and blue. I would love to change them to UV or red or whatever. How can I do this without damaging him. Do they just pull out? Any specific rating on the bulbs? Also if anyone is interested...its very easy to extend this prop so he is standing fully just by snipping the chain links and adding more from home depot or something. However my GF likes him the way he is and told me I have two many needed halloween projects going on to waste my time on "perfecting" something that is already cool! LOL
    Thanks everyone!

    I agree this is a great prop for the money.

    The Instructions specify that the shaking feature will not work when In "Mic or AUX" modes. So your not doing anything wrong.

    I thought about extending his legs also. but I think he looks almost uncomfortable in there. Like he is really imprisoned, meant to suffer.
    I though he sounded better when using a cd.


    I was thinking of starting another thread
    did anyone else see this warning on the instructions:

    As I said in the other thread, but now knowing it has electronics, they most likely used lead soldering on the wire connections.

    Phantom shop, you got me thinking...
    has anyone tried to make him shake more by maybe adding weght to one side of him.
    I looked under his rib cage and saw the motor throught plastic casing. I guess if you were adventurous enough you could cut into it and see if you could add more weight there.

    Yeah I love it and with a little work you could totally make it your own. I really would like to see how other leds would look but I havent had the time yet! Also I think if one could aux out the sound he would sound more clear???

    I just bought him lastnight, I think with a little touch up he will look great in the dark hanging from the big tree out front.
