    Does anybody know where to get any Styrofoam or plastic skeleton? I have buckys but want more realistic skelis. I cant afford to get several full sized skeletons. I cant find anything that is cheap.
    Any ideas or links?

    Hi Kammo! Haven't seen you posting much. Glad you are still here. What size skeletons are you talking about?

    For about $50 you can get a nice looking lightweight lifesize skelly at Garden Ridge or Kmart.

    Hey I have a dancing skeleton Pimp that I named Skelly Skell! Lol!

    But if you are moving to vegas, it is too hot there to store latex skeletons unless kept indoors. The solid latex(fairly heavy) Skelli would be my advice as they usually run $45-49 each. I had 5 but the were destroyed in storage as the heat here just broke them down...
    A Halloween prop is a terrible thing to waste..

    Hey Kammo - did you mean bluckies? I can't imagine anything more realistic than a bucky unless you yanked a skeleton out of a real body...

    My Garden Ridges (checked two so far) didn't have the awesome skeletons they had last year (ran $50, but darn good for the price), so I do hope some of them are carrying them again this year...

    I've been looking for a good quality, reasonably priced full sized skeleton to add to my display this year. Found a variety of blow-molds anywhere from $20 to $35, but not very impressed with their quality. Couldn't find anything any better locally.

    I finally settled on this:
    http://www.world-costume.com/p1469/H...duct_info.html

    Just placed my order today, but this looks identical to skellis I've seen on other sites for $80 or more (and then you also have shipping charges.) Their shipping was quite good, under $15, and that was for an order that also included a pair of shoes, a large hat and two pairs of gloves. Ordered alone, shipping would have been around $10.

    Got connected with this World Costume site by another poster on Halloween Forum. This will be my second order with them. Their prices are great, usually 25 to 50 percent off what I see in many places. I figure any time I save more on the merchandise than what I am paying in shipping, and getting what I need from the comfort of my home, its all good!

    Same thing here in Atlanta with Garden Ridge.
    I bought two of those $50 skeletons last year.
    I went last week in hopes of getting two more and all they have are some really bad props.
    Too bad.
    Those are great skellies for $50
