Great skeletons at a great price. I love the new glow in the dark feature. I have 4 now and plan to purchase more. They would make a great radioactive spill display. Will be investing in a blacklight this year as others have suggested to really make them glow.

The skeletons were really great. We had lots of kids on Halloween stopping to have their pictures made with them. The black light from the tree really lit them up. Great product!!!!

I hated the glow-in-the-dark feature, so I completely repainted it. I planned to do this regardless. I also hated the skull as it was a weird shape, so I replaced it with another I had. The only reason I purchased this was because Home Depot put their Halloween on clearance before Halloween and this was all that was left and I needed two more skeletons in my yard. The light-up eye feature does nothing for me either, but wasn't an issue after I replaced the head.

My Favorite Halloween Purchase of the Year!
As soon as I saw it on display I knew I had to get it. I'm a sucker for glow-in-the-dark stuff AND Halloween decorations, so this guy was perfect for me. He looks durable enough to sit outside for a while, but I'm mainly going to keep him inside, by a window, under a black light. Like most glow-in-the-dark things the glow does not last and is not bright enough for people out on the street to notice, unless you use a good, strong black light. Then it shines a beautiful, radioactive green. The plastic itself is translucent and you can see some of the screw holders and stuff on his forehead, but only if you're up close. All in all, I'm very happy with this purchase and can't wait for the trick or treaters to come see him.

The skeleton came completely put together. Very easy to pose and really liked the way the eyes glowed. Use it on my deck for Halloween and it looked really good sitting there in a chair for the evening. Easy to set up and easy to fold and put away for next year.

SPOOKTACULAR!!! Where was this when I was a kid?
In a word, this thing is AWESOME! On so many levels. At 60" it's nearly life-size. It's very lightweight and can be hung just about anywhere from the attached lanyard. It's very posable and the limbs hold their pose well. (I have one hand that won't stay in place, but otherwise, the joints stay where you put them.) It's incredibly detailed, resembling an anatomically correct medical skeleton, which I have. The medical skeletons (known as "Bucky" skeletons) are extremely heavy, awkward, expensive, and not at all posable. This plastic skeleton blows it away, so much so that I doubt I'll even drag the Bucky out of the attic this year.
Now, let's talk about the glow-in-the-dark aspect of this skeleton. Since I was a kid, I've been addicted to anything glow-in-the-dark, so I'm a bit of a connoisseur on luminous objects. All glow-in-the-dark objects are not equal. So often, you'll get something with a very low luminosity factor. Not this guy. The glow is excellent! It's "baked in" to the plastic, not merely painted on the surface. And it glows vibrantly. I give it a 9.5 on the Glow Scale. If you're familiar with glow-in-the-dark stuff, you know that you'll get much better results from illuminating your object with a black light. But if you really need pitch black, a quick exposure to a light will give this a gorgeous, fairly long-lasting glow.
Now, in regular light, be aware that this luminous plastic has a bit of a green tinge to it, and it's slightly translucent where you can see some of the support struts in some of the bones. But come nightfall, you'll never notice.
It comes with red LED lights in the eyes, which were a nice touch but totally unnecessary. Having the red eyes turned on ruin the glow effect. If you wanted to blink the lights in time with talking or something (using the included corded remote control), that could be cool. Otherwise, skip the eyes, IMO.
This thing will be a scene stealer in your Halloween display this year. And at this price! $30 for this quality? Wow. If this had been available when I was 12, it would have absolutely, positively blown my mind. Happy Halloween!

I am so happy I bought this piece. It is made of a heavy duty plastic & is very durable. You can adjust the legs, arms, feet & hands which is awesome! I ended up putting this skeleton on my front steps and placed some black lightbulbs in my lanterns above & he glowed! I wish I would have bought more

bought for my wife. Buckled it into my truck for the hour drive home and had people recognize me with my new found friend. Wind blows around pretty good ended up putting down guides to help maintain stability on the porch. Does not glow very well. But.....for what it is and cost, worth money.

Glow Skeleton was v good for about 2 hours...we sat him in a chair under a tree. But then his ‘glow’ began to fade so we moved him closer to a light source so kids could see him. Note: he came w batteries only for testing eyes in store; had to replace them for his eyes to glow all evening.
