WALGREEN'S HALLOWEEN POCKET SCREAMERS: SWEET NEW TOYS!

[Anton Phibes]

Anybody seen these at Walgreen's Apparently there have been different ones released for years at variuos drug stores. I picked up their new clown. At only 2.99 each I couldnt resist. I loves me some creepy clowns. They also had a variety of hags and skull people.  The one I have has his hands at his side and is dressed in more vibrant colors but the lights and sounds are the same.

One of my Monster Kid buddies gave me the Dracula one. I've got to admit, it's kind of cool.

I've seen similar ones to those at Target in the past but the bodies on these look more detailed than in the past!

[Creature Features]

LOl, those are awesome!

Michael's has 3 new Halloween Screamer toys this year too.
Very similar in size to these.

Walgreens also had a 24" Dracula that was pretty neat.  Kind of reminded me of a Telco with no motion.  Anyone been to Big Lots yet?

COOL!

I had the same thought.  It just needed real hair.  In fact, they have the heads of those figures for sale (with sound or something), and I thought they would make great tops for Telco-like figures. 

I have been to Big Lots and have nothing substantial to report.  However, this was a few weeks back.  Perhaps they now have something worth buying.  No Chris Lee signs this year, though...  and my stores never got that in last year.

I was unimpressed with Big Lots stock and did not buy anything.  They did have the 'Dracula's Pub' lighted sign, but already have one.  Went to CVS today and they had the best selection uni monsters that I've seen so far.  Purchased a Dracula screamer, Frankenstien, Dracula, Witch, Reaper, windup walkers, 6 neat rubber bats, and some great Disney Halloween statues - Pluto as a pirate, Donald as a devil, & Minie as a fairy.  They were nice at only $4.50 each and will be on the hunt for Mickey.

Are the "windup walkers" anything we haven't seen before?  if so, could you post a picture?

I really liked the $20.00 Dracula.  It is built on a light-weight pvc frame.  The eyes light up red and he says, "come closer, come closer".  The face is flesh-colored.  I measured mine at 35" - just the right height for some of the smaller trick-or-treaters to look at eye-to-eye. A very stylish vampire in person.  Would be even better with a medallion on a ribbon hung around his neck.

They also had a dis-emboddied head (painted white) for $6.99 who's eyes light up and speaks.  There were also witch and zombie heads.

They also had a good-looking 12" vampire that rises from his coffin.

One thing about Walgreens this year:  Last year they had 2 half aisles of Halloween stuff.  One aisle had all decorations, toys and costumes.  The second aisle was all candy.  This year they had only 1 half aisle devoted to Halloween.  One side of the half aisle had the decorations and the other side had the candy.  Even then, they had to fill out one side by stacking sodas and crackers.

Sigh.
