Kind of wish they'd do more Nightmare stuff than just 10,000 slightly different Jack Skellingtons...

Yeah I would like a inflatable that was like 300 or something that had every main character in it or something like that. They have at least started with the at Home zero inflatable which is cool.

I just ordered this Crazy Bonez T-Rex small dinosaur skeleton from Walmart through Google Express. Never used GE before and it's suppose to be here by Thursday so we'll see. Not really in that big of a rush but that was the delivered by date they gave me. This was my first order so took advantage of the 20% off first order code (SUMMERFUN thru 7/2). The dino is 36 inches long, assume 16 inches high and 11 inches wide, bendable tail and moveable jaw. The big Jumbo plastic eggs (set of 3 nesting ones) I bought from Hobby Lobby on sale at Easter time (largest one 16 inches tall) should work just fine as an egg he hatched out of. Here's the link to the CB small T-Rex:

I looked all over to see if I could find these being sold elsewhere yet, not seeing on CB's site either, so with the 20% off brought the price down to $24 so figure even if it sells for less elsewhere later I don't have go running around looking for it. It was not listed on Walmart's site either. Not really buying much of anything halloween this year (have so much to use already and have been looking for things since last year for a dinosaur theme). I saw that AtmosFX has dinosaur projections new this year so will add those but otherwise pretty much set what with last year's purchases of Home Depot's big T-Rex and big hatchling, a momma triceratops and 2 kids, and Walmart's Raptor.
Honestly haven't been in the decorating mood since last year and wasn't even sure I wanted to decorate this year and instead take the year off and hit a haunted house on halloween. Saw the Jurassic World movie over the weekend and got me back in the swing of things albeit slow mode! I thought the movie's dino animation was so good this year I never even thought of the dinosaurs as being animated, which was quite the nod I thought to those involved in bringing them to life. Don't know how much I'll be hanging out here but did want to post about this guy in case someone else wants to order this CB T-Rex and take advantage of the 20% off coupon.

I saw the t-rex skeleton that walmart had last year, it was pretty nice. With the NBC anniversary coming up maybe they will have something new. An inflatable Mayor and Oogie Boogie would be nice. Also, I followed ibc's link to the mydinosaurs site and found some awesome stuff! I would be just about be willing to sell a kidney for one of those t-rex skeletons!

Actually Walmart carried a Velociraptor skeleton, smaller than the Home Depot Big 8-9ft T-Rex.
Those "puppet" dinos were cool but yes at least a kidney! Maybe if they sold a small baby compy ( http://jurassicpark.wikia.com/wiki/Compsognathus ), I could see buying that if it was priced by size. But fun to look at all the same.

My Google Express/Walmart order arrived via OnTrac as scheduled in a Walmart box. I had ordered 2 and it fit both of them nicely. Just some air pillows added for filler. They arrived in their own plastic bags. Nice quality. The Item page description title said they were an original Crazy Bonez item and I believe they are although the tag does not reflect this. Has Walmart on them so maybe made for them. The T-Rex measures 36 inches from head to tail, stands 16 inches high, and his feet are 11 inches from side to side, so measurements in listing were fine. Reg. 29.97 but used that Code SUMMERFUN to get 20% off of the order (thru 7/2) so saved about $12. Taxes added but since order was over minimum got free shipping (believe it was $25 min.). Shipping box was pretty good size. And here they are! Very happy with the purchase.

So I looked at the tag and it's simply labeled Skeleton Dinosaur and checked Walmart site for that. I did find the T-Rex listed on Walmart's site for 29.97. They had it grouped under "Official Crazybonez Faux Bat Skeleton" listing where you could select an "animal" choice. Never would have found it there since didn't need a bat! and no indication there were other items you could choose. Here's the listing for it - you'll have to select Dinosaur though - https://www.walmart.com/ip/Official-Crazybonez-Faux-Bat-Skeleton/552265989. It's Walmart Item #564219165. Says pick up not available. Sold and Shipped by Walmart. Full price right now, so the Google Express can save you some money if you want to order it now through them and take advantage of a first time order. Google gave 2-day shipping.

BTW on the back of the tag I found the UPC code so ran it through the UPCIndex.com to see where else it might pop up. Just Walmart so far.

I have a pterodactyl birthing area in my plans and having him hanging above that area watching the little ones might cool and maybe a bit intimidating to some and scary at the same time. Definitely going to keep an eye out for this one. Thanks lbc for mentioning it. Curious to see the animation on it. BTW not listed thru UPCIndex yet and not yet shown on Gemmy site's Halloween section.
Getting a little off topic with the next 3 items as not something from Walmart, but if you are doing a kid's party I could see making some origami pterodactyls as a small gift for each kid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuXutjRHTk8
Now this completed DIY could look very frightening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeyrcAGPK5o
I like this DIY pterodactyl. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iAxZlhl9dg

I see that Walmart will be restocking it's 6 ft. Standing Skeleton Raptor this year. You can get an instock alert if you want. He's pretty cool, a number of us ordered him last year. Looks like the price may have come down from last year ($72.99 instead of $99.00).

I bought it last year, (well actually my mom bought it for my birthday
) and I can say I was very happy with it. Nice, manageable size and looked great at night with a blue spot light. What I particularly like about skeleton props is that they can take the weather. Mine have been poured on and still hold up.
It was easy to take down and store in the original box too.
If you can get it cheaper this year I would get it. It looks great in a dino scene. That is why I am thinking of getting HD's Sabertooth cat prop
