I've seen so many of these figures in people's front yards this year. I actually think they look really cool but how in the hell do people afford so many of these huge skeletons? Most of the houses where I've seen several of them in the yard are not exactly wealthy looking.

We have the new one from home Depot that you control with your phone.

Pretty awesome but only about 8ft tall

Eta you can record anything you want and control/change his eyes, move his head, his torso and his arms and change the lights to strobe. My 10yo is freaking out his friend by having it greet them by name.

Endless fun

Just admit it...the giant skeletons scare you especially when they're eerily lit up at night time.

They’re everywhere around here too. My first thought was where do these people keep them the rest of the year…gotta take up a ton of space

How do people afford $70,000 trucks and $2000 iphones? Somehow everyone has one. Probably have a ton of credit card debt too.

That Is less than I thought. Some of them are well over 12 feet tall.

They’ve taken over my neighborhood too. Along with the giant skeleton torso and head coming out of the ground.

Kids love them and someone must be selling them cheap

Maybe they chose to spend less money on a McMansion so they could spend money on other things. Some refer to that as living within one’s means. I’m sure you’ll criticize them for wasting money on decorating though. Even though their children might love it and they might be making good memories.

The OG skelly is 300. Most of the 12 footers start at 300 and go up from there. Pretty expensive to me for a decoration. Especially when someone has a huge number of 12 footers and above in their yard.

Good to see people making an effort, so many lazy asses that do nothing.
Of course many dumbasses have had decorations up for weeks now and that’s just stupid, the other extreme.
