Spirit Halloween 2023

This may be an interesting year for Spirit Halloween. It will be their 40th anniversary this year so they may do something special. Also since Seasonal Visions is doing pneumatic animatronics now we may get some interesting animatronics from that too.

Their website’s internal system/website database starts updating in late April and early May so we will have to wait for that.

I thought Trick or Treat Studios had value and deluxe sizes of the cocoons

The deluxe one is probably discontinued since it was made in a partnership with Distortions Unlimited. Both seem to be the same size though.
AC CHUCKY JACK BOX STATUE

Looks interesting, obviously inspired by the Child’s Play 2 poster.

It looks like someone got ahold of some 2023 Spirit stuff. This was posted on eBay and somebody bought it. I’m not sure if this is legit though.

It’s different than the ANIM 109 Cotton Candy Cocoon because that one doesn't mention anything about it being a inflatable and the measurements are different.

That could be real because there is no other Cotton Candy Cocoon prop that looks like that and the official listing could've left out the inflate part by mistake. The only way I can know if it is real for sure is looking at the scanner sticker to see if the sku matches up. It's also important to note that we are getting new prop shipments in and this is one of them.

Speaking of shipments, importgenius just revealed the codename for ANIM 9109 as "Scary Sitting Scarecrow." If you look at the item number and HS code it is very different from the Sitting Scarecrow animatronic we have seen for many years, so this is a different and another new scarecrow animatronic Tekky is providing us, which is good because Spirit has been doing good with new Scarecrows each year since 2021

Very interesting, perhaps this is a pneumatic version of Sitting Scarecrow.

Also, you forgot to mention that the measurements are different on both CC Cocoons.

Don’t mean to sound rude but you say the measurements don’t match like spirits website didn’t say cuddles the clown was 6 ft instead of 7 or 8 or however tall cuddles actually is. Point is that spirit has been known to put wrong measurements in their things before

That’s a good point. I’m just a bit skeptical on it. ANIM 109 description seems to be very detailed. Also, the box pictures refer to it as “Cotton Candy” while the ANIM 109 page refers to it as “Cotton Candy Cocoon”.

That’s fair cause the only time I can think of where a animatronic had two different names for the website and box was the ripping reaper of souls from 2009 where the box only has the name reaper of souls.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get Slim. Hopefully we get more KKFOS props as well, something like a hanging Cotton Candy Cocoon or even obscure items from the movie like the Popcorn Bazooka.
Yaeh or maybe a jumbo animatronic I would love that or some new klown costume like the 2 lady klowns

I’m not too sure if this will be sold by Spirit but it definitely looks like something they would sell. It even has Crouchy’s hands.

I found it on the Savanna Discord. Apparently, it's a Party Time prototype but I’m not exactly sure if it’s legit so take it with a grain of salt.

Figures. I am skeptical about this and knowing it's from the Savannah discord raises the sus level unfortunately.

It’s just a PT prototype that’s been floating around for a while like the young Collector. Like I’ve said before take everything with a grain of salt unless you have the actual links. Especially that discord that sounds like it’s full of trolls.

My thoughts and opinions on Spirit, which mean absolutely nothing :) : I was watching a YouTube video recently that was talking about how 12 ft. Skeleton changed the game. Before HD came out with that, Spirit was the standard. Then HD upped the game, so then did everyone else, including Spirit. But if I were them, I would aim to be the end-all-be-all of Halloween again. Especially since all the other places have diversified incomes and sales other than Halloween. Spirit could have several different price points and props, even giving Distortions some competition. I would love to see Spirit be THE name in Halloween and Home Haunting again.
