What is the coolest feature you have ever built into a vehicle or environment that actually does something when you push a button?

Today I finished a truck that I've been working on for a long time that actually has 4 cannons pop out of the sides and roof when you push a button on the back. I'm dying to take pictures of it but I left my camera back at school.

Actually, this thread should include features that are merely button-esque. For example some of the sets in the Wild West line would have exploding walls when you pushed in a piece of dynamite. Come to think of it, that was one of my favorite themes ever.

I made a push button bomb system you bush a button and a bomb drops out course that was like 6 years ago.

Huh, I don't think I've ever made a push button anything! :shock:

I never really was into that sorta thing. I guess I've just been challenged!

I made a Revenge of the Sith V-Wing before the actual set. I had a gear system set up in the back like the X-wing or ARC-180, to rotate the wings for landing. Was kind of bummed LEGO didn't include that when they made theirs... I still got two of them though.

a trap door that spears will comedown and impale you if you push the door inward (uses a string)

I once built a working elevator, but it was too big to be of any use in my base at the time.

I once made a trapdoor that led to an alligator pit. That's as advanced as I get.

Hahaha that's funny *sniff* the most advaced thing I ever made was A slide door. It didn't really work though.

Not much for me either...

All I've ever made were hidden compartments and swinging arms at the touch of a button on a robot. Oh well...

actually, now that i remember, i have a ship with an engine full of gears and rods and whatnot, and they turn when the steering wheel does. so i guess that counts?
