    BEST SKELETON ON THE STREET! This guy is super fun, and his hinge jaw / animated eyes are a fun bonus!

    Okay, so he's not the 12' Skelly we're all looking for, but in a way, he's better. Same look, 3/4 the size, same eyes. But what's better (other than easier to place and smaller box, storage) is he talks! The jaw nice, voice is great! Loud, commanding, and he just goes great at our house!

    Exactly what you would expect. Same if not better quality of the 12 foot. Good movement in the jaw, eyes woork well. Volume control is nice for indoor or outdoor use. Perfect to complement your 12ft from HD and 6ft Grim from SH

    I absolutely love this skeleton. He was the perfect addition to my Halloween decor. It was easy and quick to put together. It only took me about 30 mins to get him assembled. The sound quality is great and the different quotes he says are just right and not too scary.

    Easy to put together and good alternative to the 12 ft skeleton that's been selling out everywhere. A shame the plastic changed color (a bit darker) after being out for a week due to rain but it is what it is. We'll be using this from now on.

    Love this 8 foot skelly so much that I just ordered a second one. Some of the labeled body parts / instructions were backwards making it annoying to put together but once assembled, he looks great! If you love classic Halloween decor, get this!!!! Just the right amount of scary and spooky!

    He came with two right hands. Not a totally bad thing since now he may be able to hold a pumpkin, but that’s why I’m rating it with 4 stars instead of 5. Otherwise he’s amazing!!! I can’t imagine the 12’ version, 8’ is good for us!

    12 foot skellys are ridiculously impossible to find. Found this 8 footer while searching for alternatives. It was so nice I bought it twice! Very happy with this purchase. Not truly meant to stay outdoors in the elements though. If you must consider placing them somewhere with overhead cover (like a porch). The added talking functionality on these is a nice touch too. If needed, shutting off the talking feature is simple. Just unplug the white connector that goes from the top of the spine to the skull, and turn down the volume.

    This has been a wonderful addition to my skeleton collection. It accompanies my 12 foot skeleton (you can see the true differences with them in size, but the entertainment value is there. So many people stop just to look at them.

    8 foot skeleton was the life of the party at my husbands 50th birthday! He’s sure to be a hit on Halloween. For the money the quality is good.

    I believe this is the best of the “large skeletons” available. Sure - there are some that are 12’ tall - but this one seems the most realistic and doesn’t require external cables for stability. There were some small fitment issues noted; nothing keeping the skeleton from being set up or used. As purchased - worth the price paid. I’d by it all over again. (Note: I have “corpsed” the skeleton for added effect.
