Spike in a Box



The Jack in a Box is the first toy i am going to turn into a weapon. It will still have to function as a normal Jack in a Box so I have decided that the best way to relate a weapon to it is by using the spring system which launches the clown out of the box to also launch the weapon.

So my idea is to drill holes in the top of the clowns hat and hide spikes underneath. These spikes will then be connected to a pole which goes through the rest of the clowns face and hangs just below the top red rim. A hole big enough to fit my fist will be cut in the bottom red plastic so that a wooden disc the size of tube will be inserted and will lie on the remaing red rim. A handle will be attached to the wooden disc to give you something to hold onto and then it will be attached to the spring, this will allow for the Jack in a box to operate in a normall way but when you apply pressure to the wooden disk it will force the spikes out of the clowns hat and serve as a spiked punching glove.
