1. A novelty device, comprising:
- a character having a head section;
a vibrating device for vibrating said head section of said character;
an on/off control for selectively activating and deactivating said vibrating mechanism, wherein said on/off control is disposed in said head section of said character;
an elastomeric cover that is stretched over said head section of said character, wherein said elastomeric cover extends over said on/off control; and
a plurality of elongated elastomeric protrusions that radially extend from said elastomeric cover so as to emulate hair, wherein said plurality of elongated elastomeric protrusions have a length of greater than one inch and randomly undulate when said vibrating device is activated.

Abstract
A novelty device having a vibrating mechanism that is disposed at least partially within a housing. The vibrating mechanism causes the housing to vibrate when activated. A plurality of elongated elastomeric protrusions are provided that extend outwardly from the housing. The elastomeric protrusions undulate when the housing is vibrated by the vibrating mechanism. The housing can be shaped as a character having a head section. The elastomeric protrusions can be placed on the head section of the character so that the protrusions have the appearance of hair. When the vibrating mechanism is activated, the protrusions undulate wildly, thereby causing the character'"'"'s hair to appear to be alive.
