 Capitalizing on the media circus, a Canadian manufacturing firm debuted a Balloon Boy costume in time for Halloween.
The company, Plantranco Microflight, says sales are through the roof. The costume kits sells for $19.99 and is available on the Web.
Bud Kays, Plantraco's managing director, told Canadian Broadcasting Corp. that coming up with the spoofy costume idea wasn't much of a stretch. The firm redesigned an existing remote-controlled balloon to look more like the one the infamous Falcon Heene never took flight in.
Plantranco wasted no time in cashing in on the bizarre fiasco-manufacturing of the kit began Monday, and the first kit was sold Tuesday.
The Web site the firm is using to sell the costume reassures buyers they're getting the real deal.
"Unlike the Fake Hoax one you saw on CNN, this one is a Real Halloween Costume, and we are shipping them out as fast as we can by FedEx to meet your Halloween Party and Trick or Treating needs!"
