It’s the 5th anniversary of Home Depot’s popular 12-foot Skelly, and the family keeps on growing. The brand announced spooky expansions to its ‘Grave and Bones’ collection, including a 7-foot skeleton dog that stands 5 feet tall, and an assortment of larger-than-life reapers, witches, and other LED and animated Halloween figureheads. The new collection is available now at HomeDepot.com. It launches in stores on Labor Day weekend.
If you’ve missed your opportunity in the past, this is your chance to snag the popular giant skeleton for $299 (and be one of the first to own some of his new sidekicks).
This ultra-popular collection is engineered with precision and is shockingly stable, considering that the most highly-sought characters are both long and lanky (we’re looking at you, Mr. 13-foot Jack Skellington). In addition to the classics, the collection introduced a 12.5-foot Inferno Deadwood Skeleton that flows with decorative LED lighting elements and a 12-foot levitating reaper that animates to horrify the unsuspecting. Home Depot continues to integrate Servo motors into select products for more precise control over small movements in some products, enhancing realism (and guaranteeing a good scare).
Skelly fanboys, this is for you:
- New models of Skelly include LED display eyeballs. These scary sockets can be set to one of eight different displays. The good news: if you already own a 12-foot Skelly, you can upgrade the eyeballs for $29.98. A Skelly eye kit is sold with the screwdriver and instructions you need to make this simple “surgical” update.
- A range of accessories. Shoes, a purse, a wig, and a necklace make it easy to differentiate your skeleton or change its look season-to-season.
- LED lighting kit. For $29.98, you can upgrade the ribcage of Skelly to glow to your liking. Weather-rated for outdoor use, this add-on helps to modernize your
- Can’t commit to a 12-footer? There’s a 3-foot Skelly available, too. Mini Skelly also comes with a stable base and LED eyeballs.
Plus, New 5-Foot ‘Pose-N-Stay’ Products
Three 5-foot tall Pose-N-Stay figures are available for $39.98 each. Unlike the 12-foot product, the new products in the line are designed with hinged joints, making them easy to manipulate into a full range of positions. Get your eyes on this corpse, LED skeleton, and LED black bat, and get creative about how you situate them into your spooky Halloween landscape. They're rated for outdoor use, but small enough to enhance your indoor decor, too.
