Thread: Honky The Clown

Tweet

i got my honky the clown yesterday and let me start off with he looks great. Very professional looking, and scary looking. well over 6 feet tall. I however did have a few issues with him. He wouldnt turn on after a wire, and i found out that the wires in the head werent connected. so i had to soder the wires back on, a pain in my behind. so i got him finaaly assembled and for some reason he wont turn on. so i turn him on and off like 5 times, and finally he works. but i gotta do this every time hes turned off. So i do recomend it, but beware lots of assembly and you may run into some issues. check out the vid review http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qr_gtSVwB64

from a scale to 1 to 10 how hard is he to oput together

I have heard that quite a few of these were defective especially the voice box. I did buy one and it works like it should. I was told by the retailer that it either uses batteries or the power adapter but do not use both as it will not work right.

I bought mine, waited forever to receive it, got it finally and was disappointed. The quality was horrible. It's easy to put together, just a few poles that you insert and then screw together. Mine had holes drilled all over the place like they were guessing where they should be. The wiring to connect the sensor to the head was too short and very difficult to get inserted properly. Once I got everything put together I discovered that mine did not work, nothing. I'm currently waiting on a replacement but am not optimistic about getting a "good" one. There were problems getting this prop shipped out and it appears they rushed them and the quality control suffered. I want this prop, but I want a working one that's reliable. I have seen one in action at my local Halloween Express and he sounded great, very annoying.
