I've seen those things before. They're effin' rad! But they put a hurtin' on the bank account! No pricing up yet for the skeletron animated body to go with the skull...

Here's what they said about pricing;

The SkeleTron was just a prototype. Final version available in August for $2999 plus $1599 for the skull. Limited supply of SkeleTrons. They need to be ordered now.

It's not for the casual amatuer home haunter at all. It's for pro haunts, or those with pro budgets, but it does inspire, doesn't it?

I do know the skelly is custom made and it runs off of the most expensive servos available. I don't think this is a project for a home haunter, unless you have the means to mold your own plastic pieces.

I couldn't afford it. I stuck with the cheaper electronics.

But i did see this big funky ball. My dog would really want to pop this one.

Did they give you the little spiders or what ever they had in there? I saw that ball there and I thought, my rott would go nuts. Then he would pop it like he does all the basketballs.

that is nice. but frankly i would NEVER spend that sort of cash on any kind of prop. Its not worth THAT much in my opinion.

Mondo cool, but even if I ran a commercial haunt, I don't think I'd be real quick to spend a bazillion dollars on a single prop. You could spread that money out on a lot of scenery and a couple of actors with coordinated scripts. I guess if you're Disney-sized you could run a budget like that.

Sharper Image haunting... if yer loaded and it's worth it to you... hey have at it... take video...

Ya gotta admit... put together the prop quality, movement, voices, etc... those guys charge primo but they definitely turn out Primo stuff...
