I wasn't planning on doing anything with the Bugs because I don't do Hallowe'en. It was never a part of Aussie culture until the mid 80s, and didn't catch on until the 90s. For me it's One Of Those Things you foreigners go on about that seems a bit silly. 8)
Speaking of silly, we have seasonal celebrations 6 months out of phase because we follow the Northern Hemisphere. Yule is in the middle of summer and Hallowe'en is mid spirng. This is why I made the list of alternative dates. The equivalent of Groundhog Day is August 2. Since we don't have ground hogs it's Wombat Day.
