This is a DIY crane game Halloween costume based on the arcade game. We used a cardboard box which was spray painted yellow. We decorated it with print outs from the computer. Inside there is a piece of foam insulation that you can buy sheets of from Home Depot. Battery operated LED Christmas lights are strung around the front window.
The crane is made from a tennis ball, duct tape, and a clothes hanger covered in aluminum foil. Various stuffed animals and toys were placed inside and a rubber ball was used as a wig. A glitter top was used as a shirt with more stuffed animals pinned to it. Label lettering was used around the box. Cardboard box was used for the controller and joystick is a magic marker covered in duct tape.
