🎃 Show & Tell: What Animatronics Did You Grab This Year? What’s Still on Your Wish List? 👻
Hey haunters!
One of the best parts of Halloween season is seeing what new animatronics everyone is adding to their collections. Whether you scored that one must-have prop on release day or you’re still hunting for the big one that got away, we want to hear all about it!
👉 Tell us:
- Which animatronics did you pick up this year?
- How are you planning to use them in your haunt or display?
- And most importantly… what’s still on your wish list? 💀🕸️
Feel free to share pics, videos, or stories of your new additions. Did you manage to snag that elusive piece? Or are you holding out for a restock (or a sale)?
This is the perfect place to swap excitement, compare notes, and maybe even inspire someone else’s next buy. Let’s see what’s filling up everyone’s yards, garages, and haunted houses this season! 🎃

Thank you both so much for sharing — we love seeing the passion and creativity in how you use and collect our pieces!
Luke, it means a lot hearing how you’ve incorporated everything into different themes in your haunt — that’s exactly the kind of creativity that inspires us. We’re thrilled you’re enjoying the sci-fi lineup too. Can't wait to see how your haunt comes together — sounds like you’ve got an incredible setup!
Dallas, we appreciate the enthusiasm for the R2-D2! We totally understand the frustration with availability and reselling — it’s always our goal to make sure fans have a fair shot at getting the items they want. We are keeping an eye on stock movement, so definitely check back when you can, and hopefully more units will make it to shelves near you.
Thank you both again for being part of this community — seeing your excitement and feedback really keeps us motivated. Lots more fun on the way! 🎃

From SVI, the animatronics that I've purchased this year have been:
The Roswell Alien from HalloweenCostumes.Com
Bride of Frankenstein from Home Depot
Jack Frost from Home Depot
6ft Sword Reaper from Home Depot
Mr Salty from Spirit Halloween (2020)
Heckles the Clown from Spirit Halloween (2023)
First, I want to say how much I love the alien products that have been provided to us lately, definitely keep up with that, as the whole sci-fi genre of Halloween has really gone under the radar in recent years so its been amazing whenever we do get those alien and sci-fi esque props (HUGE fan of cold hate/thd-3000 its a shame he didnt sell good enough to warrant more cyborg props.. because theres SO much potential for that!) I plan to use the Roswell Alien in the Sci-Fi section of my haunt. The Bride of Frankenstein will also be featured in that section, as I have the Frank from last year to pair her with. Jack Frost is going to go in my scary Christmas section with Skeleton Santa (another SVI product). Sword Reaper will be going in my cemetery, and the two Spirit clowns will be going in my clown section.
There are a lot of props that I do want this year still from you guys; however, I need to wait and see what will make it to the sale or not. I think in particular, I really still want to eventually pick up more of the items you guys carry with HalloweenCostumes.com (Mothman, Terror Dog, ETC), but the prices on those items are a tad high, so I want to spread those purchases out a bit. Overall, this year has been fantastic, and I'm already looking forward to what next year's lineups will bring!
Desperately looking for your R2-D2 with no luck as this time. Unfortunately this item is not available in stores near me. It seems that resellers are purchasing them all and reselling them for large profits at the moment.
