I assume this will be Universal licensed; looks like they are going for Bride of Frankenstein monster. Moving head, arms, eyes and mouth. For those with Facebook you can see video at Home Depot Halloween Decorating Fanatics; looked like there were some TikTok videos too if anyone has that.

Home Depot animatronic, posted where I saw it but I don't have a photo/link to the video because I've only seen it on Facebook and see links to TikTok crap.

Also just read there is a Nosferatu this year as well.

Here's video with a photo of the new monster. The other footage I've seen looks better; definitely gonna have to see one in person before purchasing.

That's pretty cool. What does something like that usually go for?

I'm thinking it doesn't look Karloff-y enough.

The thin rubber face durability also worries me.  If I pay much for a figure I want it to last.

I think it's based on the current non Karloff style guide 31 Frank.  With a bad wig.     I think it's neat ,but not $3-400 neat.

Customize him with an all black suit and a good BK mask.  :)

If I had a house I'd be tempted. With a better wig and a bit of work I think it could be made to look pretty good!

Cool item, but off the mark.

Man I was hoping to see the Classic Monsters get released in this line, if it is from last years Rubies Co I think.  Home Depot, and Lowe's both carry these impressive Halloween display figures. 

It was Lowe's that carry these Rubies electronic figures at those prices, and my interest was piqued at last years line of Jason, It, and some other characters.  The quality on those were film accurate, and for a life size-moving figure, a decent entry level price point. 

Seeing the quality of those figures had me hoping they would do the monsters.  This Frank may be Home Depot's interpretation of him, and not from Rubies, that again, I think are the makers of the Lowe's line.

Perhaps we may see the monsters yet.

Heads up!! Home Depot is having a halfway to Halloween event, including the new Frankenstein ($279.00) shipped right to your door. Looks like it should arrive in June.

Rumor is that Frank was mispriced and should have been $249; I'm hoping that if that's the case, Home Depot does the right thing and adjusts the bill.
