Just in time for Halloween, my wife desired a Walking Pumpkin for an office Halloween Party, so this thing was my first attempt. With a simple flip of the stem, this pumpkin will walk until the stem is switched off, the batteries run out, an obstacle is encountered, or any gravity induced fall is encountered (sigh, I've encountered them all). So what does my wife and her office colleagues think? They love it! Life is good! Thus if you too find yourself, significant other, office colleagues, etc., in dire need of a walking Halloween Pumpkin for your own Halloween Party (and by gosh who wouldn't?) , then this thing is for you!

UPDATE 1: Thingiverse user Alzibiff used a different motor with a longer shaft, so I've uploaded a new left side entitled "Side Left New.stl" that includes a hole that allows for the longer shaft. Thanks Alzibiff! Designed using Sketchup 8, and printed in PLA on a Makerbot Replicator 2 using Makerware 2.3.3.42 "Standard" settings. Hope you like it, and Happy Halloween!
