Portal Pumpkin!

A not-so-little slice of genius from Instructables user DracoGT.  The legs and frame are PVC pipe and fittings, painted black.  The eye is an inkjet printer transparency illuminated with an LED Tap Light.  And the body, of course, is the predominant seasonal gourd, artfully cut to suggest armor plate.
