Looking for a cool "launch" button.

Hey guys, I've built a candy launching cannon for the kids this year. Looking for a cool button that I can let them press to launch the candy.
Any thoughts?
Was thinking about a big red emergency stop button but thought I'd ask here in case someone else has any good/fun ideas.

The theme is pirates and I couldn't find anything that fit in well with that so I thought "who wouldn't like to push a big red button?"

Yeah, they put one in the S-80. Worked like a champ.

Locking Button

You can lock this one to maintain control. Always one kid that will figure out how to shoot candy at the others. Don't want an eye put out by flying Smarties.

Where the heck have you been? I haven't seen you post in months. Thought you had moved or something. Hope all is well.
