That is way cool. Love the flag, fan, fireworks, and roofline. I think the fan is especially impressive. Love the various spiral effects! My favorite is the one at 1:40 into the video.

I have to admit, that's way cooler than mine. I just might have to add some more legs to mine next year.

 

Now, knowing that you use Superstar, would you mind telling how you did the effect that Brian mentioned. I can get the individual morphs and things of that nature, but the fan whirling in the background, I can't figure out. In the Smooth Effects, I have only mastered the Shockwave. I can't seem to get my head around the Spiral and the Fan. 

 

Way cool display as always. Thanks for sharing.

Ummm wow, I have been out in the trees too long. I need to pull up my socks and figure out how to build and implement some of this stuff. Very very nice!

Here is a close up video of the firework light element. You might have to turn up the volume.
