Thank you for correcting me on both the series and episode, it was so late I didn't grab the dvd to double check. I was so tired when I posted this last night, guess I had a lil lexdysia going on.

Thanks for the great feedback so far guys! Not exactly a serious custom, but one I've been wanting to do for awhile.
The figure for the vacuum will be the one seen in the pics...working on mixing a light blue to match the cartoon outfit and working on making the baseball hat to put on backwards. Trying to make that out of that helmet you see in the pics.

Cool Just need a Plumber Viper. You could do Red Coveralls and have that Mario link.

Got way more done on this today than I thought I would. Vacuum itself is nearly ready for paint now, just need to fill in some gaps and whatnot first:
Mixed up a few diffrent blues, I'll know better in the morning once dried, but so far, think I'm going to go with the 3rd formulation(arm, farthest right): Ended up pretty much completely redoing the actual vacuuming part...wanted to included some 'goodies': While the Vacuum Viper is in pieces being painted, I used the closest poseable figure to show the vacuum in 'action'. You can also see that I added a hinge to the top of the can portion of the vacuum:

Vacuum itself with all lines and gaps filled. Another day or two and can sand and finally paint:
Black undercoat done on hidden knife handle and hidden shotgun, silver coats are next: Decided to try another hose that was more flexible to help with posability. Tweaked my recipe for this blue a lil and got the first coat on all the body parts:
