Saw blood howler yesterday in store. Pretty impressive.

 

$263 was what I paid for the werewolf in July

 

Lowe's has put a lot of their Halloween props on sale. I bought my first Lowe's Halloween item after the larger spider dropped to $199. I decided to open the Lowe's credit card to get the extra $40 off. I figured it was worth taking a closer look at $160. I didn't like it at $250, but I'll see once I put it together at the lower amount. This will be an inside decoration for me.

The Illusionist is now $151

I quickly went through this, but this is some of the other stuff that I found. I just took screenshots of them thank you though for letting me know because I wasn’t even thinking of going on Lowe’s so early for a sale.

 

Finally got into Lowes today & was not impressed. They had a ton of blow molds but the majority were branded things like Mickey & Minnie, Stitch, etc. The only one I'd buy would've been Casper & they didn't have any of those so I bought nothing. I didn't even find any discount plants.

 

So I'm just getting around to putting together my pneumatic gramps and I usually never read directions but was looking them over when i saw this what kind of kink is this gramps

 

Well, that’s a riot! My husband never reads directions so we never knew it was there

 

When I saw all this discussion on clown butts yesterday I tried to get an image of a recurring prop Knott's Scary Farm used, a painting of a contortionist clown with a considerable rear shelf, from a YouTube video of Uncle Bobo's Bigtop of the Bizarre. Didn't work, looked too blurry.

UPDATE
I used footage from the more recent Chilling Chambers house for an image, tragically the room it was placed in didn't feature black lights.

Spoiler: Behold! Ass clown

 

We also unpacked Lowe’s Gramps, this pneumatic prop will go in front of Home Depot’s Arachnophobia Spider.

 

We finally put together, Lowe’s Handstand Cliwn. He was purchased when he went on sale last year. My husband is more of the clown person than I am, but I like him! And I especially like that he has a butt! No, I do not have a clown fetish I just like when the props have some substance to them!😏

 

That doesn't sound like a clown fetish at all, it does however, sound like a butt fetish. 😳 Just kidding! 😂🤣😂

 

At the Quarry Bend Lowes

 

I really want the illusionist but my main issue is that all the ones at the stores near me look like the boxes got hit by a bus. I know lowe’s doesn’t use shipper boxes to protect things but when there’s big gashes and tears in boxes i find that to be annoying. I’d hate to have to return and rebuy just to get one that’s not damaged.

 

Between Lowes and Home Depot, this years overall theme seems to be crushed merchandise.

 

I got my illusionist. He was super easy to put together but I did notice his shoulders were off set from the boots, making him look disconnected. I just pushed on the metal rod some to bend it a bit and make his top half line up It made it look a lot better, I'm happy I got him.

 

I had noticed that in every video I have seen for it. At least it can be fixed.

 

Just got my Lowes ultra poseable skelly, and it sucks compared to the HD version. It is basically a standard cheap poseable skeleton with most of the same joints as the HD version, but it is about half the weight, and the joints are very flimsy. Considering that some of the joints either don't work or stick, I would recommend buying a cheaper basic skeleton over this, and definitely the HD version over this one.

 

I almost got him too, I'm glad I passed. Thanks for the review.

 

I think Jcc was wanting him to or maybe not.He does look cool .

 

I really want The Illusionist, but I cannot jump over my own shadow with the price tag of $189. But watching this video makes me want it even more.

 

i have to say he looks awesome and heck even me and hubby were like how the hell is this work lol

 

For anyone interested, I have had Lowe's 6' Decayed Skeleton on its display stand out 90+ degree sun all week, and it has held this pose and not deformed yet. My HD 7' skeleton would have softened and bent over by now.

Nice pose. Do you think they bench will last? Might buy one if they come back next year. I saw one a couple weeks ago, and I thought about buying it, but the wife said no. As expected, It was gone when I went back yesterday...should have left the wife home in the first place! 😆

 

C'mon, Lowe's. If HD can drop their 15 footers to $299 in August, surely you can do a little better on prices too!

 

And offering free delivery to home unless they were already doing that and I hadn't noticed. Other big props still show free to store but have a fee for home shipping.

 

Was in Lowe's the other day and while I liked a lot of their props and animatronics, this is the one that I may go ahead and grab. I'm being very circumspect on my buying this year.

Well, I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the skull candle AND I bought out all their corn stalks! I can't wait to add those to the yard this year.

 

 

Another thing I noticed at my Lowe’s store yesterday was their take on the ultra-posable skeleton. At $45 i do think the HD one is a bit better value being $5 cheaper, however I like the dark paint wash on the lowes version. I prefer variety in my skeletons so I may pick a few up. I wish HD would make some with less “evil” faces and more neutral or different expressions, so my cemetery has more of a mix.

 

OMG those neon things from Target are as bright as the surface of the sun!! Even with the cellular blinds & drapes covering them the light still leaks out the side so when I put them up I gotta make sure I pick the few that are a little "darker" & I can reach the plug to unplug them at night.

 

I luv these things. I’ve been buying them since they introduced this technology. I got the cauldron.

That cauldron is super cool! Hey Target, get over here and check this out, that’s how bubbles work!

Is it blindingly bright? I have a Joann’s willow in my office and it is like being in the room with a purple sun ha ha. I hope they have this in my local store, if they ever stock anything, so I can check it out, I hadn’t seen this.

 

only 4 of the balloon clown left as of right now.

 

Hell yes, I got my illusionist!

 

I don't get the love for the Immortal Werewolf. I have it and hate it. It's a pita to put together and take apart, looks like a giant action figure, and it's animation and audio is too short. The only good thing about it to me is it is an outdoor rated prop. I like the Big Lot and Costco 2024 werewolves better than that big plastic piece of junk! Rant over 😆

 

You liked it enough to buy it though .

 

There are most likely other unboxing videos of this Lowe’s werewolf. However, I just saw this popped up in my feed. I did see the werewolf in person and for me he somehow misses. I’m not sure why.

 

No wolf prop comes close to Immortal Warewolf.
