Mmmm, I'm really disappointed with Michaels and what they carry by Gemmy.

Surprisingly, the only thing that interests me is the Paper Mache Day of the Dead mask I saw.
Anyone know how much the Mache skull mask is?

I went to Michaels "again" last night to use another coupon Just wanted to pass along that the skeleton in the pics above (posed sitting on top of shelf) is very cool. Especially when you can get it 50% off $7.99. Also, the clerk told me that Michaels will not be getting any other halloween items in. What they have on the shelves is it! Buy what you want now...don't put it off or it will be gone!

I went to the local Party City and there still setting up. but it looks like a good selection. As for Michaels, they usually have good Gemmy life size props but not this year =/

i went to michaels today to see that they stocked all of their halloween stuff. i saw 2 life size anamatromic figures im guessing gemmy? i dont follow those too much. but the one is a skeleton coach driver (thought it was a pirate skeleton at first til i read the box), and a witch that is holding a trick or treat bad in her hands. they were not turned on as im not sure what they say or do but they were alright. the prices are a little outrageous on that stuff as well. they have a light up 3 pumpkins on top of each other for 129.99 or somethign like that. def bust out the 50% off coupons if you gemmy guiys are purchasing this stuff. my michaels does not have any life size skeletons like others which i was disappointed in but some things their selling my local dollarstore has them. such as little skulls in a bag etc, so anyone buying any little things check your local dollar store before hand. the little bag was 4.99 an the same exact thing is at the ds. i liked that my michaels this year had a whole bunch of iron on things to make your own halloween shirts and wooden little coffins that are always awesome to make some sort of project or to keep money in, etc. the spookytown stuff is getting wiped out for some odd reason now that its 20% off an the 20% doesnt even really put a dent in the price but people are buyin it up. i def have to pick up some cool potion bottles but they always have them at end of season ill get them then.

also my local spirit store has their now hiring sign up and their suppose to be opening in sept.

Yeah, no life-sized props here either in central FL at Michael's.

They have the witch and the skeleton butler. The witch is 49.99 and I am going to use %50 off coupon she is worth $25 bucks. The skeleton butler I don't like at all. There is a warning about him somewhere else and I verified today that his sensor is in his nose. Way too high for TOTs to set off.

Michael's has their Halloween stuff out now and yesterday I picked up the Lemax Spooky Town Express. It's cool!

Great video Spooky little girl.
Lemax is really hard to take pics of, it usually does come up dark.
I love your set-up. I know about the sound problems too, boy, when you get them all going, it will just about drive you crazy. But it does kind of remind you of going to a carnival though, does it not?
