This one kind of looks like Kim Jong Il (http://www.lolbabies.com/site/page/pg4759-as737-pn_How_U_Dooin.html). Which I suppose may be a kind of inverse of the Churchill effect.
It's mine. It's a Techno-Balls 920 (http://www.cheatwell.com/page35/page38/page38.html). Various photos (http://www.flickr.com/photos/crazyscot/tags/technoballs/). One of these days, when I get some tuits, I will start customising it ...
How customizable do you reckon it is? We have the second pic in this one (http://www.firebox.com/?dir=firebox&action=product&pid=758) and one of its big pluspoints is that you can build what you like out of the bits. otoh, it doesn't have a motorised marble lift...
Well, it came as a kit of 920 individual pieces. I built it as per the instructions, and I'd say it looks pretty flexible. The chains come apart, the blue and yellow straws that constitute the sides of the track are all in small sections, and the track is held up by arms which are easily repositionable on the towers which could themselves be rearranged. What I really want is an upgrade to shoot lightning among the silvery balls on the tops of the towers 8-)
