I just received 2 from Haunted Props for $48 each (the next day they went up to $68) and they ARE the Sunstar version. If my 3 skellys on order end up being different or not as good as described I will post about it.

It looks like you can buy them at Walgreens.com:

$30 and free shipping

SWEET!!!! Just ordered a couple more. Nothing like getting ready for Halloween in December!!

WOW! Just went back to the link and they are sold already. I got a confirmation on my order, but we'll see what happens.

Yup, looks like you got the last two it seems. I just tried to order, and it came back O.O.S.

bayork -Hallomarine - Since you had to "open it up and perform surgery"....how big is the space inside the spine?

Could you fit a section of 1/2" pvc through it? I'm thinking if so...this would be an ideal skelly to reform into a hunchback and use for a Cauldron Creep....

ya know, I didn't really think of that, but I don't remember it being that big. That's why I went for the 1/4" rebar. I didn't want it to collapse again. I think with carefully placed cuts across the ribs in the back, and a wire inserted you would do just fine. If you wanted to keep it that position, then Great Stuff it to keep it that way, or maybe even something that drys stiffer injected to keep the wire in place. HANG ON...I just went out to look at Wally, and 1/2" pvc will work if you screw it together well enough. Clothing will hide most anything you do, and if you wanted to use a long enough piece, you would have a way to get it to stand up as well. If none of this makes sense, it is a good idea! I was up all night at a Christmas party, and my brain is on rewind and erase. HM

Keep checking the Walgreens site from time to time (http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/buy...086243-product). I was able to order 2 on Friday (12/9/11) and received shipping confirmation.

kimcfadd - Thanks for the heads-up...I stopped checking!

Here's the full link directly to the skeleton product page. kimcfadd's was truncated for some reason: Walgreens $30 Skeleton

Glad you got your 2 Kim. Walgreens removed the wallys from their site in Oct. when they ran out originally. They re-listed it for the few they dug up somewhere later and you were in the right place at the right time. They're 'out of stock" now but it's a good sign they haven't removed the item. We'll keep checking the site for updates. I'm having trouble with your link. Try this one...http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/hal...D=362246-tier3
