    Amazing timing! All the crayons are still vertical and in line. Very nice. I would not to be on the bad side of whoever pulled that trigger.
    Love how there is yellow bits of the crayon on the far left.

    So you must have used some krazy glue on those crayons so they would stand when hit!
    This is a great concept and perfectly carried out!
    Bravo!
    I searched through the transformation images just to find this and tell you what I thought.
