The FAA is quite clear... if a tower is VOLUNTARILY lit or marked, it must be 
maintained according to FAA R &R.  This means 
specifications/maintenance/reporting/monitoring.

Novelty or not, it is lit/marked.

I would never recommend voluntarily lighting a tower. You ar eopening up a real 
problematic can of unecessary worms. When in doubt, file an FAA 7460-1.

then you are covered legally.

Been in the tower business 30 years... I could tell you stories!

73, and keep smiling!
