A few years ago, I made a funny Hallowe'en character using radio tubes and pilot lamps, with a green SX-42 dial for the face and a blue globe Arcturus tube for the nose. The "hair" was mini glass tubes alternating with lit pilot lamps. Resistors and bumblebee capacitors formed the mouth & whatnot. It was mostly stuck together with hot glue, so it eventually sagged, but I think the whole thing is still in a box somewhere.
